Among other changes: ORA2 file uploads were stored in a folder named
"SET-ME-PLEASE (ex. bucket-name)" (sigh). With this change, the folder
should be automatically renamed to "openedxuploads". This issue has been
occuring since June 2019... (sigh²)
Close #707
- [Improvement] Upgrade ipdb and ipython packages in the openedx development image. (by @regisb)
- [Improvement] Skip unnecessary image building in development. This should make `tutor dev launch` slightly faster. (by @regisb)
- [Bugfix] Fix Authn MFE login in development by disabling enterprise integration. (by @regisb)
- [Bugfix] Fix "Invalid value for ‘--from’" when running `tutor local upgrade --from=nutmeg`. If you are facing this error, just run `tutor local launch` and your platform should be automatically upgraded.
- [Bugfix] Fix "TypeError: Parameters to Generic[...] must all be type variables" error. This error may occur when upgrading from a very old installation of Tutor. It is due to an old version of the typing-extensions package.
- 💥[Deprecation] Get rid of the `quickstart` command. v15.0.0 introduced a deprecation warning, but we actually want users to stop using this command. Instead, use `launch` (by @regisb).
- [Improvement] Backfill persistent grades during upgrade from Nutmeg. If you observe missing grades after the upgrade from Nutmeg, run `tutor local upgrade --from=nutmeg`. (by @regisb)
- [Bugfix] Fix `jinja2.exceptions.TemplateSyntaxError: expected token 'end of statement block', got '|'` error by bumping the minimum required version of the Jinja2 package.
- [Feature] Add support for MongoDB SSL, authentication source, mechanism and replica set via the `MONGODB_USE_SSL`, `MONGODB_AUTH_MECHANISM`, `MONGODB_AUTH_SOURCE`, `MONGODB_REPLICA_SET` settings. (by @zakum1 and @regisb)
- [Bugfix] Fix tag of "openedx" development Docker image. Previously, this Docker tag did not include the Tutor version. As a consequence, a different cached image could be used in some cases. For instance: when running `tutor dev run` commands. Now, the image tag is "openedx-dev:TUTOR_VERSION".
- [Bugfix] Fix name of Swahili locale: it is "sw-ke" and not "sw" (by @regisb).
- [Security] Apply drag-n-drop v2 xblock [security patch](https://discuss.openedx.org/t/upcoming-security-release-xblock-drag-and-drop-v2/8768/7). (by @regisb)
- [Improvement] Auto-completion of `plugins` and `config` arguments: `plugins enable/disable NAME`, `plugins install PATH`, `config save --set KEY=VAL`, `config save --unset KEY`, `config printvalue KEY`. (by @regisb)
- [Bugfix] Fix minimum click version (>= 8.0.0) when installing tutor from pip.
- [Improvement] Enable CORS by default for both LMS and CMS by moving those settings to the `common_all` partial. (by @arbrandes)
- [Improvement] Auto-complete implicit `local/dev --mount /path/to/...` options. (by @regisb)
- 💥[Feature] Strong typing of action and filter hooks: this allows us to detect incorrect calls to `actions.add` or `filters.add` early. Strong typing forces us to break the `do` and `apply` API by removing the `context` named argument. Developers should replace `do(context=...)` by `do_from_context(..., )` (and similar for `apply`).
- [Security] Fix xblock ajax handler vulnerability. (by @regisb)
- [Improvement] Use web proxy gzip encoding to improve bandwidth. We
observe a 75% size reduction on the LMS dashboard. (by @ghassanmas)
- [Improvement] Upgrade Scorm XBlock to v14.0.0. (by @regisb)
- 💥[Improvement] The Richie plugin was transferred to the Openfun organization; thus, it is no longer officially supported and it is removed from the default set of plugins that ships with
`pip install tutor[full]` or the Tutor pre-compiled binary. Users are encouraged to uninstall the `tutor-richie` Python package and install the `tutor-contrib-richie` package instead.
- [Feature] Upgrade edx-platform i18n strings to nutmeg.2. (by @regisb)
- [Feature] Add the `-m/--mount` option to `tutor dev quickstart`.
- [Bugfix] Fix `tutor dev start -m /path/to/frontend-app-learning` by introducing dev-specific `COMPOSE_DEV_TMP` and `COMPOSE_DEV_JOBS_TMP` filters (by @regisb).
- [Bugfix] Log the shell commands that Tutor executes more accurately. (by @kdmccormick)
- [Bugfix] `tutor dev quickstart` would fail under certain versions of docker-compose due to a bug in the logic that handled volume mounting. (by @kdmccormick)
- [Bugfix] The `tutor k8s start` command will succeed even when `k8s-override` and `kustomization-patches-strategic-merge` are not specified. (by @edazzocaisser)
- [BugFix] `kubectl wait` checks deployments instead of pods as it could hang indefinitely if there are extra pods in a broken state. (by @keithgg)
- [Bugfix] Build openedx-dev Docker image even when the host user is root, for instance on Windows. (by @regisb)
- [Bugfix] Patch nutmeg.1 release with [LTI 1.3 fix](https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/pull/30716). (by @ormsbee)
- [Improvement] Make it possible to override k8s resources in plugins using `k8s-override` patch. (by @foadlind)
- [Bugfix] Update problem with hint template so it works with newer python versions. (by @mariajgrimaldi)
- [Feature] Add default PYTHONBREAKPOINT to openedx/Dockerfile (by @Carlos-Muniz)
- [Bugfix] Fix smtp server port in `cms.yml` which was causing email sending failures in the Studio. (by @regisb)
- [Bugfix] Skip waiting for MongoDB if it is served using SRV records. (by @gabor-boros)
- [Improvement] Use `git am` instead of `cherry-pick` to simplify patching process.
- [Improvement] Tutor is now compatible with Docker Compose subcommand.
- 💥 [Feature] Upgrade to Nutmeg: (by @regisb)
- 💥 [Feature] Persistent grades are now enabled by default.
- [Bugfix] Remove edX references from bulk emails ([issue](https://github.com/openedx/build-test-release-wg/issues/100)).
- [Improvement] For Tutor Nightly (and only Nightly), official plugins are now installed from their nightly branches on GitHub instead of a version range on PyPI. This will allow Nightly users to install all official plugins by running ``pip install -e ".[full]"``.
- [Bugfix] Start MongoDB when running migrations, because a new data migration fails if MongoDB is not running
- [Security] Apply logout redirect url security fix. (by @regisb)
- [Feature] Make it possible to force the rendering of a given template, even when the template path matches an ignore pattern. (by @regisb)
- 💥[Fix] Get rid of the `tutor config render` command, which is useless now that themes can be implemented as plugins. (by @regisb)
- [Security] Apply logout redirect url security fix. (by @regisb)
- [Feature] Make it possible to force the rendering of a given template, even when the template path matches an ignore pattern. (by @regisb)
- 💥[Fix] Get rid of the `tutor config render` command, which is useless now that themes can be implemented as plugins. (by @regisb)
- [Fix] Truncate site display name to 50 characters with a warning, fixing data too long error for long site names. (by @navinkarkera)
- [Feature] Add patch to allow overriding final openedx docker image CMD.
- [Fix] Ignore Python plugins that cannot be loaded. (by @regisb)
- [Improvement] Faster and more reliable builds with `npm clean-install` instead of `npm install`. (by @regisb. Thanks @ghassanmas!)
- [Fix] Fix 500 error during studio login. (by @regisb)
- [Fix] Fix updates for the Caddy deployment in multi-node Kubernetes clusters (#660). Previously, Caddy configuration updates might fail if the Kubernetes cluster had more than one worker node. (by @fghaas)
- [Improvement] Add the `COMPOSE_PROJECT_STARTED` action and run `dev
stop` on `local start` (and vice versa).
- [Feature] Introduce `local/dev copyfrom` command to copy contents from
a container.
- [Bugfix] Fix a race condition that could prevent a newly provisioned
LMS container from starting due to a `FileExistsError` when creating
data folders.
- [Deprecation] Mark `tutor dev runserver` as deprecated in favor of
`tutor dev start`. Since `start` now supports bind-mounting and
breakpoint debugging, `runserver` is redundant and will be removed in a
future release.
- [Improvement] Allow breakpoint debugging when attached to a service
via `tutor dev start SERVICE`.
- [Security] Apply rate limiting security fix (see
[commit](b5723e416e)).
- [Feature] Introduce the ``-m/--mount`` option in ``local`` and ``dev``
commands to auto-magically bind-mount folders from the host.
- [Feature] Add `tutor dev quickstart` command, which is similar to
`tutor local quickstart`, except that it uses dev containers instead
of local production ones and includes some other small differences for
the convience of Open edX developers. This should remove some friction
from the Open edX development setup process, which previously required
that users provision using local producation containers (`tutor local
quickstart`) but then stop them and switch to dev containers (`tutor
local stop && tutor dev start -d`).
- 💥[Improvement] Make it possible to run `tutor k8s exec <command with
multiple arguments>` (#636). As a consequence, it is no longer
possible to run quoted commands: `tutor k8s exec "<some command>"`.
Instead, you should remove the quotes: `tutor k8s exec <some command>`.
- 💥[Deprecation] Drop support for the `TUTOR_EDX_PLATFORM_SETTINGS`
environment variable. It is now recommended to create a plugin
instead.
- 💥[Improvement] Complete overhaul of the plugin extension mechanism.
Tutor now has a hook-based Python API: actions can be triggered at
different points of the application life cycle and data can be modified
thanks to custom filters. The v0 plugin API is still supported, for
backward compatibility, but plugin developers are encouraged to migrate
their plugins to the new API. See the new plugin tutorial for more
information.
- [Improvement] Improved the output of `tutor plugins list`.
- [Feature] Add `tutor [dev|local|k8s] status` command, which provides
basic information about the platform's status.
