ReleaseNotes

3.11

• Updated some dependencies

3.10

• Bootstrap will now terminate (exit -1)if a plugin throws an exception during initialization.
• The conf-doc maven goal will generate example.conf if property suppressWarnings is set to true. Property defaults to false will cause the goal to fail on invalid @config property values.

3.9

• Minor changes

3.8

• Introducing reststop:boot, reststop:boot-start, reststop:boot-stop, a run configuration attempting to running in a similar configuration to a production distribution by hiding the Maven class path. Migration: Move containerDependencies from dist-execution to the plugin configuration. To stop when running in console press CTRL-D to shut down gracefully.

3.7

• Interpolate environment variables in config values
• Fixed faulty error message when a plugin is dependent on itself

3.6

• Make sure ServletContextCustomizers are run with the JettyWebsocketsPlugin's class loader as the Context Classloader

3.5

• Make WebSocket endpoints re-deployable
• Jetty-plugin supports config jettyEnableXForwarded, enabling X-Forwarded-handling

3.4

Nuked

3.3

• Fixed problem where standardfilemanager did contain state and was reused between compilations

3.2

• Enable JSR365 WebSocket API

3.1

• reststop-jetty-plugin: Sessions enabled by default

3.0

Se 3.0rcX

3.0rc3

• Bugfix: Plugin annotation processing fails with IndexOutOfBoundsException for non-existing types in @Export fields

3.0rc2

• Bugfix: Plugin annotation processing fails with IndexOutOfBoundsException for non-existing types in constructor
• Developer plugin: Fixed file descriptor leak when compiling Java source files
• Minor tweaks to allow building/running on Java 9

3.0rc1

API changes:

• PluginListener has been removed

• AssetFilter has been pulled out into reststop-assets-filter (not included by default)

• reststop-cxf-deploy-plugin has been removed, CxfDeployPlugin folded into reststop-cxf-plugin

• reststop-jersey-deploy-plugin has been removed, JerseyDeployPlugin folded into reststop-jersey-plugin

• PluginClassLoader.getClassLoaders() now returns Collection

• ServletBuilder and FilterPhase has been moved out of reststop-api into the new module reststop-servlet-api. reststop-api no longer depends on servlet-api. This means Reststop can be used cleanly outside servlet/web contexts.

• Changes:

• Exported Filters are no longer looked up dynamically at runtime. Filters are now deployed by the new reststop-servlet-deploy-plugin. If you don't add this no Filters will be deployed (expect a lot of 404s)

New features:

• development-plugin can now redeploy plugins when used config properties change
• development-plugin can now redeploy plugins when Maven pom.xml changes
• reststop-maven-plugin:deploy can now live-deploy a new Reststop-plugin
• Plugins can now get Collection injected. Deploy of new plugin classloaders will lead to restart of the consuming plugin.
• AssetFilter now sets Content-Length, and handles Last-Modified/If-Modified-Since

#2.3

• Servlet initialiser now moved into reststop-servlet. This needs to be added to any war poms.
• reststop-bootstrap added. Supports running Reststop containerless (with Jetty as a Reststop plugin)

#2.2

• Development: More robust reloading of affected plugins
• RpmBuilder is now more configurable
• Metrics: HealcheckRegistry moved out of -servlets to match MetricRegistry.
• Bugfix: Interpolation of system properties now check for null (non-required) values
• Upgraded Jetty to 9.3.6
• @Plugin annotation-processor now writes .config-param files for each plugin class. These are picked up for analysis by :con-doc.

#2.1

• reststop:start/run can now start on a random port by setting to 0. Actual port used is written to target/test-classes/reststopPort.txt
• Jetty's service script now defaults to setting JETTY_USER to the application name user
• Jetty's service script now creates /var/log/appname
• reststop:dist can now be configured with <containerDependencies> to be added to the container's classpath
• reststop:scan-plugins has been removed in favour of generating metadata files from the annotation-processor. All plugins now need to have reststop-annotation-processor on the compilation classpath:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.kantega.reststop</groupId>
        <artifactId>reststop-annotation-processor</artifactId>
        <version>${reststop.version}</version>
        <scope>provided</scope>
    </dependency>

• @Plugin annotation processor now writes names of constructor parameter names to a metadata file, removing the need to configure javac compilers with -parameters which was needed to support parameter names in Java reflection.
• Reststop's DelegateClassLoader now sees classes from the delegates entire parent chain.
• @Config values are now interpolated with system properties. (Try using ${reststopPort} for integration tests)
• Transitive dependencies pulled in through a provided dependency are now not put on the runtime class path.
• New Maven goal reststop:conf-doc validates and documents your configuration
• Class loader construction order is now calculated independently of class loader startup order, reducing the chance of circular startup order problems.
• PluginExport<T> now correctly results in an import of T, not of PluginExport<T>

#2.0

• See [Migrating to Reststop 2](Migrating to Reststop 2)

#1.13

• Maven plugin: Support reading RPM version and release number from properties when creating an RPM distro
• Maven plugin now has two plugin lists, and . Allows having a common list of plugins in a parent pom.xml
• Support for injection of Collection with all available services of type T
• Support for exporting a Collection

#1.12

• Added Maven 3.3.1+ support for maven plugin #7
• Added ability to use system properties directly instead of init parameteres for configuration #11
• reststop:create adds an api plugin, which should always be used for abstractions between plugins
• Improved documentation #9
• Fixed stacktrace errors not showing on Window/Firefox #8
• Fixed issue with missing applicationName init parameter when building zip/rpm package
• Updated Jetty to 9.2.11.v20150529
• Updated Jersey to 2.17

#1.11

• reststop:create, reststop:create-plugin are functionally improved, and the generated project made more realistic
• Circular plugin dependencies (unresolvable start orders) are now detected and reported
• "/"-redirects for directory assets now works with both file: and jar: URL resources.
• A global configuration file is now required
• Optional annotation processor now enforces som @Config and @Export restrictions compile time
• Various bug fixes to the Webjars plugin
