elastic/curator v5.8.2

5.8.2 (24 November 2020)

on GitHub

Announcement

• No, Curator isn't going away. But as you can tell, it's not as actively
  developed as it once was. I am gratified to find there are still users who
  make it a part of their workflow. I intend to continue development in my
  spare time. Curator is now a labor of love, not an engineering project I
  do during work hours.

New

• Testing changes. Only last ES version of 5.x and 6.x are tested, plus the
  releases of 7.x since 7.2.
• http_auth is now deprecated. You can continue to use it, but it will go
  away in the next major release. Moving forward, you should use username
  and password. This should work in curator, curator_cli, and
  es_repo_mgr.
• Removed tests for all 5.x branches of Elasticsearch but the final (5.6).
• Added tests for missing 7.x branches of Elasticsearch
• Remove tests for Python 3.5
• Fix hang of Shrink action in ES 7.x in #1528 (jclegras)
• Add ecs as a logformat option in #1529 (m1keil)

Bug Fixes

• Lots of code cleanup, trying to go PEP-8. All tests are still passing, and
  the APIs are not changed (yet—-that comes in the next major release).
• Dockerfile has been updated to produce a working version with Python 3.7
  and Curator 5.8.1
• Pin (for now) Elasticsearch Python module to 7.1.0. This will be updated
  when an updated release of the module fixes the cluster.state API call
  regression at elastic/elasticsearch-py#1141
• Fix client.tasks.get API call to be client.tasks.list when no index
  name is provided. See
  elastic/elasticsearch-py#1110
• Pin some pip versions to allow urllib3 and boto to coexist. See #1562
  (sethmlarson).

Documentation

• Add Freeze/Unfreeze documentation in #1497 (lucabelluccini)
• Update compatibility matrix in #1522 (jibsonline)
