Major Enhancements

Allow to configure `product.json` for Visual Studio Code - Open Source using ConfigMap

With this release, you can configure not only settings.json and extensions.json, but also product.json for Visual Studio Code - Open Source editor by using a dedicated ConfigMap:

apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: vscode-editor-configurations
data:
  extensions.json: |
    {
      "recommendations": [
          "dbaeumer.vscode-eslint",
          "github.vscode-pull-request-github"
      ]
    }
  settings.json: |
    {
      "window.header": "A HEADER MESSAGE",
      "window.commandCenter": false,
      "workbench.colorCustomizations": {
        "titleBar.activeBackground": "#CCA700",
        "titleBar.activeForeground": "#ffffff"
      }
    }
  product.json: |
    {
      "extensionEnabledApiProposals": {
        "ms-python.python": [
          "contribEditorContentMenu",
          "quickPickSortByLabel",
        ]
      },
      "trustedExtensionAuthAccess": [
        "<publisher1>.<extension1>",
        "<publisher2>.<extension2>"
      ]
    }
immutable: false

Improve mounting certs into users containers

The process of mounting certificates into user's containers has been improved in this release:

The obsolete che-trusted-ca-certs ConfigMap that was used for mounting certificates into the /public-certs directory was removed.
The ca-certs-merged ConfigMap is now created in the user namespace and is merged either into the /public-certs directory or /etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/pem, depending on the value of spec.devEnvironments.trustedCerts.disableWorkspaceCaBundleMount defined in the CR.

More details about importing untrusted TLS certificates are available in the official documentation.

Develocity integration

Starting from this release, the che-server builds are revved up by Develocity, which enhances developer productivity through features such as Build Scan for build insights and collaborative troubleshooting, and remote Build Cache for build acceleration. Develocity also provides comprehensive reporting and visualization of build data.

To view the Build Scan produced by a build, click on the generated link at the end of the build. Build Scans are available locally and on GitHub Action CI (limited to users authenticated to publish local scans). You can access all scans published by the che-server builds on the Eclipse Develocity dashboard by searching for the che server project.

Here are additional useful links with the che-server builds data:

Update to Fabric8-Kubernetes-Client 7.1.0

Fabric8 Kubernetes Client used in the che-server component has been updated to the latest 7.1.0 version. More details about the new version are available in the official release notes.

Bug Fixes

OpenShift image is broken on the User Dashboard

The broken link for the OpenShift console image on the User Dashboard has been fixed in this release.

Setting `disableWorkspaceCaBundleMount: true` doesn't stop mounting certificates into `/etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/pem/` dir

Previously, setting disableWorkspaceCaBundleMount: true property in the CR did not stop mounting certificates into /etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/pem/ directory. The defect has been fixed in this release.

No space left on device when build che-code image

The defect related to the building of the che-code image from CDE has been fixed in this release.
