Synnefo-wide |
75 |
------------ |
76 |
|
77 |
* Create 'snf_django' Python package to hold common code for all Synnefo |
78 |
components. |
79 |
|
80 |
* Create a JSON-exportable definition document for each Synnefo Components |
81 |
(Astakos, Cyclades, Pithos, etc.) that consolidates APIs (services), |
82 |
resources, and other standardized properties (e.g. default URL prefixes). |
83 |
|
84 |
* Standardize URLs for Synnefo Components, impose structure and naming |
85 |
conventions to related settings. Make each component deployable under |
86 |
a user-configurable <COMPONENT>_BASE_URL. Each API (compute, image, etc.) |
87 |
is deployable under a developer-configurable prefix beneath BASE_URL. |
88 |
|
89 |
* Deprecate CLOUDBAR_ACTIVE_SERVICE setting from all apps. |
90 |
|
91 |
* Common synnefo 404/500 templates (located in snf-webproject) |

|
93 |
Astakos |
94 |
------- |
95 |
|
96 |
* Redesign of the accounting system (quotaholder) and integration into |
97 |
Astakos. |
98 |
|
99 |
* Simplified the quotaholder model; removed tables Entity and Policy; now |
100 |
table Holding contains limit and usage for every holding. |
101 |
* Extended table Holding, so that we can keep track of quota for every |
102 |
valid combination of holder (e.g. user), resource, and source (e.g. the |
103 |
default system or some specific project). |
104 |
* Refactored code for issuing and resolving commissions for robustness; |
105 |
added a 'force' option to bypass the upper limit check when issuing a |
106 |
commission. |
107 |
* Simplified syncing to the quotaholder; removed fields from models |
108 |
Project and ProjectMembership, previously needed for syncing; removed |
109 |
state PROJECT_DEACTIVATED from ProjectMembership. |
110 |
* Removed settings ASTAKOS_QUOTAHOLDER_URL, ASTAKOS_QUOTAHOLDER_TOKEN, |
111 |
and ASTAKOS_QUOTAHOLDER_POOLSIZE. |
112 |
|
113 |
* API-related changes: |
114 |
|
115 |
* Implemented API calls for quota, resources, and commissions. |
116 |
* Moved all API calls under '/account/v1.0'. |
117 |
* Implemented the keystone API call POST /tokens under '/identity/v2.0'. |
118 |
|
119 |
* Service and resource specification and handling: |
120 |
|
121 |
* Specified a format for defining services along with the API endpoints |
122 |
and the resources they expose. Migrated internal resource name by |
123 |
prefixing it with service name (e.g. 'vm' becomes 'cyclades.vm'); |
124 |
renamed registered service 'pithos+' to 'pithos'. |
125 |
* Specified a procedure to register a Synnefo component, its services and |
126 |
their resources in astakos and set the resources' default base quota |
127 |
limit. Removed resource definitions from settings. |
128 |
* Moved service and resource presentation data out of the respective db |
129 |
models into a separate file of UI constants. |
130 |
|
131 |
* Converted the limit on pending applications from a setting to a quotable |
132 |
resource. Converted the related user setting to a user-specific base quota |
133 |
limit. Deprecated model UserSetting; removed setting |
134 |
ASTAKOS_PENDING_APPLICATION_LIMIT. |
135 |
|
136 |
* Changes in locking strategy: |
137 |
|
138 |
* Lock only project's chain for all project operations; lock user before |
139 |
syncing to quotaholder. |
140 |
* When locking multiple rows (e.g. users or holdings) include an ORDER BY |
141 |
clause in the query to impose ordering on locking. |
142 |
|
143 |
* Changes in views: |
144 |
|
145 |
* Replaced custom transaction context with a simple decorator for managing |
146 |
transactions and a context 'ExceptionHandler', which logs and suppresses |
147 |
exceptions |
148 |
|
149 |
* Added fine grain user auth provider's policies. |
150 |
|
151 |
* Administrator can override default auth provider policies to a specific |
152 |
user or group of users. |
153 |
* Optionally a user can be assigned to a list of groups, based on the |
154 |
authentication method he choosed to signup. |
155 |
|
156 |
* Removed explicit handling of SMTP errors on each email delivery. Exceptions |
157 |
are now propagated to base django exception handler. |
158 |
|
159 |
* Email used in html/email tempaltes which prompt user to contact for service |
160 |
support prompts is now defined in ``CONTACT_EMAIL`` setting introduced in |
161 |
snf-common settings. |
162 |
|
163 |
* Improvements in user activation flow |
164 |
|
165 |
* User moderation now takes place after the user has verified his email |
166 |
address. |
167 |
* User model enriched with additional user state fields |
168 |
* Split activation email from moderation process. Administrator is required |
169 |
to moderate user explicitly using the `user-modify --accept` or |
170 |
`user-modify --reject` commands. |
171 |
* Improved logging throught out user activation procedures. |
172 |
|
173 |
* Remove deprecated AstakosUser model fields: `provider`, |
174 |
`third_party_identifier` |
175 |
|
176 |
* Allow override of authentication provider messages using the following |
177 |
format in setting names: ``ASTAKOS_<PROVIDER_MODULE>_<MSGID>_MSG`` |
178 |
|
179 |
* Cloudbar automatically tries to identify the active service based on window |
180 |
location. |
181 |
|
182 |
* Removing authentication provider view is now CSRF protected. |
183 |
|
184 |

185 |
access available Synnefo services API's. |
186 |
|
187 |
* Remove of ASTAKOS_*_EMAIL_SUBJECT settings. All email subjects are now |
188 |
defined in astakos.im.messages module. Overriding default values can be |
189 |
achieved using custom gettext files or using astakos messages settings:: |
190 |
|
191 |
#change of greeting email subject |
192 |
ASTAKOS_GREETING_EMAIL_SUBJECT_MESSAGE = 'Welcome to my cloud' |
193 |
|
194 |
* Remove ``ASTAKOS_ACTIVATION_REDIRECT_URL`` and ``ASTAKOS_LOGIN_SUCCESS_URL`` |
