Supported Release 4.16.0

Summary

This release sees a massive update to all unit tests to test UTF8 characters. There are also multiple cleanups in preparation for internationalization. Alongside this, improvements to ipv6 support, a new length function compatible with Puppet 4, and an update to path types. Also contains multiple bug fixes around functionality and tests.

Features

  • Addition of coverage in all unit tests for functions, data and resource types for UTF8 for i18n.
  • All strings within the readme and functions that are split over two lines have been combined in preparation for i18n parser/decorator.
  • Improvement on the ipv6 support for type - Improves regex to catch some valid (but lesser known) ipv6 strings, mostly those which are a mix of ipv6 strings and embedded ipv6 numbers.
  • Adds a new parameter encoding to allow non UTF-8 files to specify a file encoding. This prevents receiving the error message "invalid byte sequence in UTF-8" when special characters that are not UTF-8 encoded appear in the input stream, such as the copyright symbol.
  • Addition of the new length function. Returns the length of a given string, array or hash. To eventually replace the deprecated size() function as can handle the new type functionality introduced in Puppet 4.

Supported Release 4.13.1

Summary

This bugfix release addresses the undefined method 'optional_repeated_param' error messages seen by users of puppet 3.7.

It also improves the user experience around function deprecations by emitting one warning per function(-name) instead of only one deprecation overall. This allows users to identify all deprecated functions used in one agent run, with less back-and-forth.

Bugfixes

  • Emit deprecations warnings for each function, instead of once per process. (MODULES-3961)
  • Use a universally available API for the v4 deprecation stubs of is_* and validate_*. (MODULES-3962)
  • Make getvar() compatible to ruby 1.8.7. (MODULES-3969)
  • Add v4 deprecation stubs for the is_ counterparts of the deprecated functions to emit the deprecations warnings in all cases.

Supported Release 4.13.0

Summary

This version of stdlib deprecates a whole host of functions, and provides stepping stones to move to Puppet 4 type validations. Be sure to check out the new deprecation() and validate_legacy() functions to migrate off the deprecated v3-style data validations.

Many thanks to all community contributors: bob, Dmitry Ilyin, Dominic Cleal, Joris, Joseph Yaworski, Loic Antoine-Gombeaud, Maksym Melnychok, Michiel Brandenburg, Nate Potter, Romain Tartière, Stephen Benjamin, and Steve Moore, as well as anyone contributing in the code review process and by submitting issues.

Special thanks to Voxpupuli's Igor Galić for donating the puppet-tea types to kickstart this part of stdlib.

Deprecations
