Full Changelog: v0.9.1...v0.9.2

v0.9.1

Description

v0.9.1 is a relatively small release. The only new feature is the availability of the new testing module to help out with testing Agents.

v0.9.0

Description

v0.9.0 introduces some new tools and features, such as the ocs-client-cli tool and param decorator. Test coverage is also greatly expanded. One change in the API that requires attention is the renaming of MatchedClient to OCSClient. Users should update their scripts where MatchedClient is used, as it will be removed in a later release.

v0.8.0

Description

v0.8.0 includes some bug fixes and a few new features, including feed exclusion, for handling high sample rate feeds separately from InfluxDB, and Operations Monitoring, for keeping an eye on OCS task/process state. We also update to Ubuntu 20.04 within the OCS Docker containers. This update was required to fix the build process. Users who are still on v0.7.1 who run into container build problems (say if you're developing a new agent) should update to v0.8.0. Full change log below.

Change Log

New Features

• Add feed exclusion options, allowing feeds to be published exclusively to influxdb or the HK aggregator (#187)
• Add operations monitoring, providing a way to monitor task/process status via Grafana (#188)
• Update to so3g v0.1.0-24-g5645096 (#190)
• Add support for InfluxDB "line" protocol and gzip to InfluxDB Publisher, improving write performance (#191)
• Switch ocs-util to jupyterlab (#201)

Documentation Updates

• Add docs about logging within Agents (#195)
• Clarify the permissions structure for ocs-util (#202)

Bug Fixes

• Catch InfluxDBServerErrors when the InfluxDB server is down (#191)

Misc.

• Update to Ubuntu 20.04 based Docker images (#193)

• Drop ipywidgets and ocs_widgets (#196)

v0.7.1

Description

v0.7.1 is mostly bug fixes, however there are some new important features. OCS Web has been expanded to include a new control panel system for Agents, allowing tasks and processes to be started via the web interface for supported Agents (#163). Agents should now be robust against short term disconnection from the crossbar server (#180). This means they will stay up during a crossbar reboot if one is required. Full change log below.

Change Log

• Add ability to skip file check when using g32influxdb (#162)
• Add OCSWeb control panel system for Agents (#163)

v0.6.0

It's been ~9 months or so since we updated the tag, so it's about time for a new release. Here's a summary of what's been added since we last updated:

• FakeDataAgent has been promoted to a core OCS Agent!
• We restructured some docker internals
• Rebuilt the aggregator and registry agents to be more resilient
• Created the OCS web monitor, which provides a view of the ocs system from your web browser
• Added smarter argument parsing and site-config parsing
• Added InfluxDB backend for passing data to grafana
• Overhauled documentation
• Added ocs-util docker

v0.5.0

Summary of changes since v0.4.3:

• MatchedClient introduced
• LS372 heater drivers expanded
• PSU Agent created
• TimeoutLock introduced
• wamp http access configured
• Simons Observatory specific Agents broken out into new socs repository

v0.5.0 brings us to a point where we have split of the SO specific Agents, requiring a new repo be cloned if you're running with an older version of OCS and update to v0.5.0. This allows us to keep the core OCS functionality work here, separate from any Agent development being done for SO.

It is now possible to have Operations running in the reactor thread.

Minor bugfixes:

- Suppress misleading heartbeat error message in case that onJoin
  exits early.
- Use test_realm in examples/ocs.cfg.
