CaaS Connect

PX-115

Improvement of the internal build process.

PX-153

Improved the internal infrastructure.

CAAS-1733

The performance of the schedules was improved for big projects. Additionally, aggregation and reporting of performance measurements was added to schedules.

CAAS-1631

Support for resolution tags.

PX-50

Improvements in the internal test architecture.

CAAS-1768

The JSON format version has been updated to 1.2. With the introduction of the new JSON format, additional information about list elements and table cells is output from CMS_INPUT_DOM and CMS_INPUT_DOMTABLE (attributes listConfig and propertyConfig). Further information can be found in ticket id CORE-13031 in the FirstSpirit release notes at https://docs.e-spirit.com/odfs/releasenotes/2021-09/FirstSpirit_Releasenotes_EN.pdf.

CAAS-1765

Fixed a bug where an incorrect Content-Type metadata attribute was set for S3 objects of image binary files.

CAAS-1673

The manual invalidation of media files of a CloudFront distribution is now disabled by default. Additionally, the Cache-Control metadata attribute is now added to every S3 object by default. See update notes for more information.

CAAS-1767

With the change introduced in version 3.14.1 it happened that valid preview pages were saved as an empty route in corresponding dataset documents. This error has now been corrected.

CAAS-1766

Fixed a problem where releases of datasets were not updated in the CaaS correctly.

CAAS-1737

Unexpected exceptions that occur while collecting FirstSpirit datasets during a schedule run will no longer cancel the run.

CAAS-1753

A log message about errors during index creation was erroneously written in case of success. This has now been corrected.

CAAS-1740

In cases where a page reference has been set as a preview page for a table template and the preview page is not a projection page for that content, the route attribute of the related CaaS documents now correctly contains an empty value.

CAAS-1719

Creation of indexes on frequently used document attributes for preview and release content collections.

CAAS-1563

Media attribute mimeType can no longer become null.

CAAS-1670

Removed unused code.

CAAS-1724

Clarified documentation regarding the CaaS Connect Service Configuration.

CAAS-1734

Improved logging of the progress of a schedule execution.

CAAS-1712

Unexpected exceptions that occur while collecting FirstSpirit elements during a schedule run will no longer cancel the schedule run. Additionally, the performance of the schedules was dramatically improved for big projects.

CAAS-1725

The schedules now check whether the CaaS platform is reachable at the start of a schedule run and cancel the execution accordingly, depending on whether the platform is reachable or not.

CAAS-1730

GIDs for datasets will now be created on demand. This may happen for very old FirstSpirit projects.

CAAS-1709

Improved internal test infrastructure.

CAAS-1714

Errors during the retrieval of CaaS documents at the beginning of a schedule execution are now logged with the log level INFO.

CAAS-1682

When changing the content of sections that are being referenced by other sections, the related pages will now be updated in the CaaS.

CAAS-1628

Reduced the amount of GET requests sent by eventing or manual data reconciliation.

CAAS-1713

When updating documents in CaaS, HTTP responses with status code 412 are now no longer logged as errors when they are expected.

CAAS-1708

Improved internal test infrastructure.

CAAS-1715

Fixed outdated external links in the module documentation that point to the CaaS Platform documentation.

CAAS-1711

Logging has been extended to generate a log output every 1000th element, so that it’s easier to observe whether the schedule is still active, i.e. for long-running schedules and/or projects with many elements.

CAAS-1694

Fixed a bug that caused the upload of media files to an S3 bucket to not be repeated when transient network errors occur.

CAAS-1685

Fixed a bug where media binary files were not correctly deleted from the configured S3 bucket if a folder prefix is used.

CAAS-1678

Event-based updates no longer use a cached project variable.

CAAS-1640

Changes of sections that don’t cause a change of the page revision will now also be pushed to the CaaS.

ZT-200

Removed fallback for FirstSpirit versions prior to 2021-02 to resolve GIDs for datasets.

CAAS-1199

Optimized resource consumption of transferring media to a S3 bucket by transferring the binary data of a medium as a stream.

CAAS-1269

The schedules of the module now also deleted orphaned documents.

CAAS-1447

Adapted project build to internal documentation process.

CAAS-1650

Improved the performance of the modules default schedules. From now on the schedules do not generate and process the JSON for elements which are already up-to-date in the CaaS.

CAAS-1610

The standard schedules of the module now use an improved approach to reconcile data between FirstSpirit and CaaS.

CAAS-1655

Improved the stability of the schedules when transmitting content of big projects to the CaaS platform.

CAAS-1401

Removed internal property from serialization and deserialization.

CAAS-1633

Added documentation for necessary server restart after module installation.

CAAS-1605

Added missing automation for internal shaping update.

CAAS-1636

Improved the internal test infrastructure

CAAS-1617

Improved performance of CaaS schedules.

CAAS-1602

The property changeInfo is now written into each element’s generated JSON document. It contains the date and id of the corresponding FirstSpirit revision.

CAAS-1491

The tenant database in the CaaS platform is now created already when the CaasConnectService is started.

CAAS-1595

Fixed a bug where the binary data URLs did not point to the S3 bucket when the S3 endpoint URI was omitted in the service configuration.

CAAS-1594

Fixed an error that caused the service to be configurable only when running.

CAAS-1599

Improved internal test infrastructure

CAAS-1582

In CAAS-1408 the languages in the release notes were swapped. This has now been corrected.

CAAS-1530

Added a test to ensure that the correct amount of data is sent to the backend.

CAAS-1534

Added documentation regarding push notifications (change streams).

CAAS-1408

When removing media from a project the corresponding object will now be removed from the S3 or CaaS bucket.

CAAS-1562

Fixed a bug that caused a SdkClientException SSLEngine closed already when using a proxy configuration for media uploads to S3.

CAAS-1571

Fixed a bug that caused WebSocket connections of change streams to occasionally get closed.

ZT-131

During the automatic push of datasets, errors occurred if the dataset did not yet have a GID. This can occur in very old FirstSpirit projects, even after migration to a current FirstSpirit version. As of FirstSpirit 2021-02, this behavior has been corrected. A fallback is still supported for older versions. This fallback triggers WARN logging, as this has a negative impact on performance. We therefore strongly recommend updating to FirstSpirit 2021-02.

CAAS-1521

Due to a merge conflict, versions 3.4.0 and 3.3.2 to 3.3.4 overlapped and are incorrectly mapped in the release notes. This has now been corrected.

CAAS-1502

Fixed a bug that caused media uploads to S3 to fail when the credentials provided by the EC2 instance metadata expired. The credentials will now be refreshed automatically.

CAAS-1523

The proxy configuration will now also be used when accessing both the S3 or CloudFront API.

CAAS-1521

Hidden sections are now included in the CaaS preview data. The release data remains unchanged. For more information, see the documentation.

CAAS-1522

Laid foundation for eventing endpoints for CRUD database operations.

CAAS-1541

Terminology in the documentation has been adjusted to avoid confusion.

CAAS-1302

Data from the project settings is now persisted in CaaS.

CAAS-1506

Memory consumption was optimized significantly.

CAAS-1515

Fixed a bug where threads created during a CaaS schedule were not terminated properly.

CAAS-1509

Schedules now handle exceptions more gracefully and send all elements that have been processed successfully.

CAAS-1483

Fragment projects are now correctly detected and supported

CAAS-1488

Fixed a bug where memory consumption of CaaS generations could reach high extremes for large projects, effectively preventing the generation from finishing and/or slowing down the FirstSpirit Server.

CAAS-1369

When using an S3-compatible storage for media binary data without a CloudFront configuration the generated links to media files now use a virtual hosted-style format. Among other things this format imposes additional restrictions on the bucket name. Please see chapter Media deployment of the documentation for more information.

CAAS-1460

Removed invalidation for skipped media items

CAAS-1400

Failures for some project items now don’t prevent successfully rendered project items to be sent.

CAAS-1406

Changes to the service configuration via the configuration GUI are now applied directly and no longer require a service restart to take effect.

CAAS-1228

Adding the JSON attribute route which contains the relative URL of a dataset. Please refer to the documentation for more information.

CAAS-1362

Update to the latest FirstSpirit version 5.2.200807

CAAS-1319

Added usage of noCache parameter when creating CaaS resources to avoid possible caching problems in rest API.
