7.0.0 (2020-05-18)
Breaking changes
- Removed PhantomJS: PhantomJS was deprecated in Grafana v6.4 and starting from Grafana v7.0.0, all PhantomJS support has been removed. This means that Grafana no longer ships with a built-in image renderer, and we advise you to install the Grafana Image Renderer plugin.
- Dashboard: A global minimum dashboard refresh interval is now enforced and defaults to 5 seconds.
- Interval calculation: There is now a new option
Max data points
that controls the auto interval$__interval
calculation. Interval was previously calculated by dividing the panel width by the time range. With the new max data points option it is now easy to set$__interval
to a dynamic value that is time range agnostic. For example if you setMax data points
to 10 Grafana will dynamically set$__interval
by dividing the current time range by 10. - Datasource/Loki: Support for deprecated Loki endpoints has been removed.
- Backend plugins: Grafana now requires backend plugins to be signed, otherwise Grafana will not load/start them. This is an additional security measure to make sure backend plugin binaries and files haven't been tampered with. Refer to Upgrade Grafana for more information.
- Docker: Our Ubuntu based images have been upgraded to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.
- @grafana/ui: Forms migration notice, see @grafana/ui changelog
- @grafana/ui: Select API change for creating custom values, see @grafana/ui changelog
Deprecation warnings
- Scripted dashboards is now deprecated. The feature is not removed but will be in a future release. We hope to address the underlying requirement of dynamic dashboards in a different way. #24059
- The unofficial first version of backend plugins together with usage of grafana/grafana-plugin-model is now deprecated and support for that will be removed in a future release. Please refer to backend plugins documentation for information about the new officially supported backend plugins.
