v1.2.0 — CI improvements and tooling enhancements

Release date: 2026-02-09

Summary

This release adds a new set of CI workflows for testing, code-quality, and security scanning, plus several tooling and workflow improvements. There are no breaking changes.

What's New

• Add CI workflows for testing, code quality, and security scanning (commit: c772dbe).
• Add Bandit SARIF generation and integrated security scanning in CI.

Bug Fixes

• CI: remove python3 distutils and fix coverage workflow (commit: 44e1fde).

Improvements

• Modularize GitHub Actions pipelines and streamline testing and matrix (commits: 09da261, 10b22f8, 3d35772, 4cf9099).
• Formatting and type-hint improvements (commits: fbc31bb, 4e99d8b).
• CI: install project in editable mode so tests can import package; run full pytest for update dry-run (commits: 331f0cb, dca10ac).

Security & Compliance

• CI now produces SARIF for Bandit and includes security scanning steps. Review SARIF results and address any findings before promoting the release to a final publish.

Upgrade Notes

• No action required for users; no breaking changes detected. Recommended: ensure the CI pipeline passes on your branch and review SARIF/security scan results before publishing as a full release.

v1.0.0

Release v1.0.0 — xNetVN MonitorD

Release Date: 2026-02-01

Overview

xNetVN MonitorD v1.0.0 is the initial stable release of the lightweight host/service monitoring daemon. It provides a small, extensible framework for executing resource and service checks, and delivering notifications through multiple channels (email, Telegram, Discord). The project focuses on security, operational simplicity, and testability.

Key Features ✅

• Resource monitoring (CPU, memory, disk) and service checks.
• Pluggable notifier architecture (Email, Telegram, Discord) with unit tests covering notifier integrations.
• Configuration via YAML and an example .env for runtime parameters.
• Systemd service files and sample deployment instructions for Linux environments.
• Comprehensive test suite and Sphinx-generated documentation.

Security & Operations 🔒

• Never commit secrets (API keys, passwords) into the repository. Use environment variables or a proper secrets manager (HashiCorp Vault, cloud KMS) instead.
• Backup important configuration and environment files before upgrading. Example paths used in deployment and documentation: /opt/xnetvn_monitord/config/.env and /opt/xnetvn_monitord/config/main.yaml. Store backups securely and rotate them following your operational practices.
• The service runs as a systemd unit in recommended deployments — adapt file paths and permissions to your environment.

Tests & Compatibility 🔬

• Unit tests are provided for core checks and notifier integrations. Run the test suite with pytest during upgrades or before deployments.
• This release targets Python 3.10+ and standard Linux distributions. Follow the README for installation and systemd integration details.

Known Limitations & Notes ⚠️

• Advanced integrations (e.g., Slack, metrics exporters) are not implemented in this initial release. Contributions welcome.
• If you run the daemon in containerized environments, ensure secrets are supplied via secret mounts or environment variables managed by the orchestrator.
