3.8.1¶
- Fix regression in Push To app
3.8¶
- Refactored settings
- Added pagination to My Data view
- BDD tests using behave and phantomjs
- Added download MD5 checksum buttons to Dataset View
- Add autocaching task that allows data from a StorageBox to be cached to another StorageBox
- Re-wrote user documentation and switched to hosting docs on RTD
- Switched to using NPM to manage JS deps.
- Facility and instrument are now visible on Experiment and dataset views - thanks @avrljk

3.7 - 17 March 2016¶
- DataFile size is now a BigInteger field
- New settings for customisations, contextual view overrides (eg INDEX_VIEWS).
- A new AbstractTardisAppConfig class that all new tardis apps should subclass
- Third-party tardis app dependency checking

- Changed constraints on the instrument model; facility and instrument name are now unique together
- changed method tasks to task functions, pre-empting the removal of methods tasks in new celery versions
- RESTful API now supports ordering, e.g. &order_by=-title, for Experiments, Datasets and DataFiles.
- Allowed groups to be ‘owners’ of an Experiment. Enforce rule in views for web UI requiring every Experiment to have at least one user owner.
- Registration support updated for latest django-registration-redux package
- Speed-ups for dataset view page loading for datasets with large numbers of images. The carousel is now limited to a maximum of 100 preview images.
- Reorganised and updated documentation

- updated Django to version 1.6.10
- removed migrations app
- renamed
Dataset_File
toDataFile
DataFile
have adeleted
and aversion
flag, for upcoming support of these features.- verifying files does not have side-effects anymore
- renamed
Author_Experiment
toExperimentAuthor
- an
ExperimentAuthor
can now have an email and or a URL - recoded
Replica
andLocation
asDataFileObject
with associatedStorageBox
, based on the Django File API - API v1 got some additions, largely or fully backwards-compatible
- a publication workflow app, guided publication of data
- download data via SFTP using a built-in SFTP server
- removed most traces of METS
- AAF authentication support
- parameters that can store a generic foreign key (link to any database object)
- new models
Instrument
andFacility
- basic support for SquashFS archives as
StorageBox
. Probably requires installation-specific code such as what is used at the Australian Synchrotron. - error pages are no normal-sized
- new view “Facility Overview”, for facility administrators to have overview over data.
- “MyData” includes owned and shared data
- safely allowing HTML in descriptions now. Achieved by “bleaching” of tags
- stats page faster through DB-server-side aggregation
- layout improvements
- pep8 and pylint improvements
- bug fixes

2.0 - Unreleased¶
Auth/Auth redesign [Gerson, Uli, Russel]
Authorisation. Support for several pluggable authorisation plugins (Django internal, LDAP, VBL). The added AuthService middleware provides a mechanism to query all available auth modules to determine what group memberships a users has.
Alternative authorisation. Rule based experiment access control engine was implemented with the following access attributes for indivdual users and groups: canRead, canWrite, canDelete, isOwner. Additionally, a time stamp can be specified for each access rule.
Further information can be found at the wiki: Authorisation Engine design
