I'm proud to release version 2.4.0 of the Roundup issue
tracker. This release is a bugfix and feature release, so
make sure to read `docs/upgrading.txt
<https://www.roundup-tracker.org/docs/upgrading.html>`_ to
bring your tracker up to date.
The 79 changes, as usual, include some new features and many
bug fixes.
Version 2.4.0 will be the last release to support Python
2. The next minor release, planned for mid 2025, will occur
5 years after Roundup started supporting Python 3.
Note that you should run ``roundup-admin ... migrate`` to
update the database schema version. Do this before you use
the web, command-line or mail interface and before any users
access the tracker.
You can install it with::
pip install roundup
(preferably in a virtual environment). To download it, use::
pip download roundup
then unpack and test/install from the tarball.
Among the notable improvements in 2.4.0 from the 2.3.0
release are:
* three CVE's have been fixed. One requires changes to your
tracker's home directory. The other two are fixed by
installing 2.4.0. See
https://www.roundup-tracker.org/docs/security.html for
details and instructions on how to fix these in 2.4.0 and
earlier releases.
* new classhelper component thanks to a team of students
from CS682 at U-Mass Boston. This fixes many issues with
the old classhelper. It is implemented as a web-component
and needs REST interface access. It will fall back to the
classic classhelper if REST is not available or if the
browser does not support web-components.
* fix Windows Python installation using pip. It used to go
into an infinite loop during install or download. Also fix
installation of shared files (templates) so roundup-admin
can find them.
* using ``@current_user`` as a value in a search URL for a
user property will use the current logged in user. Now you
can share searches like: "My issues" as "my" will become
the current logged in user.
* login failures to the REST/XML-RPC interfaces are now rate
limited to limit password guessing attacks.
* utf8mb4 is the default charset for MySQL. This requires
migrating your database using the mysql client. You can
choose to keep the older character set in config.ini.
* PostgreSQL services defined in pg_service.conf can be
used. PostgreSQL schemas are supported to eliminate the
need for the roundup user to have database
creation/deletion privileges.
* fix out of memory issue when importing larger trackers
into PostgreSQL.
* multiple roundup-admin improvements: display protected
properties (like creation date), better formatting of
output, command history. Also on windows, pyreadline3 is
supported to provide an editable interactive command line.
* an experimental wsgi performance improvement in 2.3.0 is
now now the default and is opt-out.
* new template functions: utils.readfile and
utils.expandfile. Javascript that is included in the
Python core will be moved to external files and be able to
have values from Roundup substituted in the Javascript.
* allow content-type of a template to be set from inside the
template. This allows returning json or xml from a
template without a .json or .xml extention.
* fix import/export on windows to use Unix style line
endings fixing export/import on Windows and making exports
portable across platforms.
* various other Windows platform fixes including test suite
fixes.
* sqlite version 1 and StructuredText support removed.
The file CHANGES.txt has a detailed list of feature
additions and bug fixes for each release. The most recent
changes from there are at the end of this announcement. Also
see the information in doc/upgrading.txt.
If you find bugs, please report them to issues AT
roundup-tracker.org or create an account at
https://issues.roundup-tracker.org and open a new ticket. If
you have patches to fix the issues they can be attached to
the email or uploaded to the tracker.
Upgrading
=========
If you're upgrading from an older version of Roundup you
*must* follow all the "Software Upgrade" guidelines given in
the doc/upgrading.txt documentation.
Note that you should run ``roundup-admin ... migrate`` for
all your trackers to update the database schema version. Do
this before you use the web, command-line or mail interface
and before any users access the tracker.
Roundup requires Python 2 newer than version 2.7.12 or Python 3
newer than or equal to version 3.6 for correct operation. (Python
3.4 or 3.5 may work, but are not tested.) Note that Roundup 2.4.0
will be the last release to support Python 2. You should deploy
new trackers with Python 3 and plan on upgrading older trackers
from Python 2 to Python 3. See the upgrade guide.
To give Roundup a try, just download (directions above),
unpack and run::
python demo.py
then open the url printed by the demo app.

About Roundup
=============
Roundup is a simple-to-use and install issue-tracking system
with command-line, web and e-mail interfaces. It is based on
the winning design from Ka-Ping Yee in the Software
Carpentry "Track" design competition.
Roundup manages a number of issues (with flexible properties
such as "description", "priority", and so on) and provides
the ability to:
(a) submit new issues,
(b) find and edit existing issues, and
(c) discuss issues with other participants.
The system facilitates communication among the participants
by managing discussions and notifying interested parties
when issues are edited. One of the major design goals for
Roundup that it be simple to get going. Roundup is therefore
usable "out of the box" with any Python 3.6+
installation. It doesn't even need to be "installed" to be
operational, though an install script is provided.
It comes with five basic issue tracker templates
* a classic bug/feature tracker
* a more extensive devel tracker for bug/features etc.
* a responsive version of the devel tracker
* a jinja2 version of the devel template (work in progress)
* a minimal skeleton
and supports four database back-ends (anydbm, sqlite, mysql
and postgresql).
Recent Changes
==============
From 2.3.0 to 2.4.0
Fixed:
- CVE-2024-39124 - The classhelpers (_generic.help.html) are
vulnerable to an XSS attack. A specially crafted URL that used
that endpoint would result in running a script embedded in the
URL. (Found/reported by Alec Romano (4rdr), fix/tests John
Rouillard)
- CVE-2024-39125 - If the Referer header is set to a script tag,
it will be executed when the error in the Referer header is
reported. (Found/reported by Alec Romano (4rdr), fix/tests John
Rouillard)
- CVE-2024-39126 - PDF, XML and SVG files attached to an issue can contain
embedded JavaScript. This JavaScript was executed when the file was
accessed. PDF files are now downloaded and not displayed in the
browser. A content security policy is added for all download files
which prevents code execution in SVG files. (Found/reported by Alec
Romano (4rdr), fix/tests John Rouillard)
- issue2551282 - MySQL utf8mb4 issues and
issue2551115 - Use utf8mb4 as a default for MySQL instead of utf8
The default database type and collations have been set to:
utf8mb4, utf8mb4_unicode_ci and utf8mb4_0900_bin. They are (sadly)
configurable from config.ini. Require directions on upgrading the
MySQL db have been documented in upgrading.txt.
- issue2551063 - Rest/Xmlrpc interfaces needs failed login protection.
Failed API login rate limiting with expiring lockout added. (John
Rouillard)
- issue2551184 - improve i18n handling. Patch to test to make sure it
uses the test tracker's locale files and not other locale
files. (Marcus Priesch)
- issue2551283 - fail if version 2.4.9 of markdown2 is used, it broke
[issue1](issue1) style links. Support markdown2 2.4.8 and earlier
and 2.4.10 with its new schema filtering method. (John Rouillard)
- multiple flake8 fixes (John Rouillard)
- rename loop variable in 'for sendto in sendto:' (John Rouillard)
- issue2551193 - Fix roundup for removal of cgi and cgitb standard
python modules (and FieldStorage/MiniFieldStorage). Replaced imports
from cgi to use roundup.anypy.cgi\_ which will load the system cgi
unless it is missing. Then it will load roundup.anypy.vendored.cgi
and make \*FieldStorage symbols available. Roundup uses its own
cgitb.py and not the system cgitb.py. It looks like it's the
precursor to the system cgitb.py. (John Rouillard)
- issue2551278 - datetime.datetime.utcnow deprecation. Replace
calls with equivalent that produces timezone aware dates rather than
naive dates. (John Rouillard)
- when using "roundup-admin display" indent the listing only if
headers or protected fields are requested. This makes the output
look like it did previously to 2.3.0 if the new features aren't
used. Roundup-admin output was never meant to be machine parsed, but
don't break it unless required. (John Rouillard)
- issue2551290 - pip install roundup Hangs on Windows 10
The install under windows goes into an infinite loop using pip or
source install. (John Rouillard)
- Document use of pyreadline3 to allow roundup-admin to have CLI editing
on windows. (John Rouillard)
- issue2551293 - remove schema_hook from Tracker instance. Looks like
it was an obsolete hook used for testing. Never documented and not
accessible from schema.py.
- Fix roundup-admin security command. Lowercase its optional
argument. Roles are indexed by lower case role name. So 'security
User' and 'security user' should generate the same output. (John
Rouillard from issue on mailing list by Chuck Cunningham)
- make roundup-server exit more quickly on ^C. This seems to be
limited to windows. (John Rouillard)
- Fix error handling so failure during import of a non-user item
doesn't cause a second traceback. (Found by Norbert Schlemmer, fix
John Rouillard)
- Handle out of memory error when importing large trackers in
PostgreSQL. (Found by Norbert Schlemmer, extensive testing by
Norbert, fix John Rouillard)
- use unittest.mock rather than mock for
test/test_hyperdbvals.py. (found by Ralf Schlatterbeck. Fix John
Rouillard)
- disable proxy with wget in roundup_healthcheck. (Norbert Schlemmer
Noschvie on github.com)
- support dicttoxml2.py for Roundup running on 3.7 and
newer. dicttoxml uses a type alias: collection.Iterator that is
dropped in Python 3.10. (found by Norbert Schlemmer, fix John
Rouillard)
- fix duplicate html id 'password' in user.item.html in all templates except
jinja2. (John Rouillard)
- fix unclosed file when saving index in indexer_dbm.py. (John Rouillard)
- fix task index in devel tracker so it doesn't cause a crash if all
fields are selected. (John Rouillard)
- fix windows install. When using pip share directory is installed in
a directory tree under the lib directory. Fix it so that Lib/share
is used to install the share tree. The lets Roundup find tracker
templates and translation files. (Found by Simon Eigeldinger, fix
John Rouillard)
- fix roundup-demo, interactive mode would nuke an existing tracker.
(Found Tonu Mikk, fix John Rouillard)
- fix detection/reporting when using a SQLite3 library without FTS5
support. Install docs updated to state that FTS5 support is required
when using SQLite for back end. (Found Tonu Mikk, fix John
Rouillard)
- issue2551320: user.help-search.html doesn't respect
properties. Setting url parameter properties when using the
classhelp for users now shows the requested properties. (Found by
Patel Malav and Nikunj Thakkar of the UMass-Boston CS682 Spring
2024 class; fix John Rouillard)
- use ast.eval_literal() rather than eval() to turn CSV exported
string values into Python object/values.
- use template's guess at Content-Type in headers only if Content-Type
is not already set. This allows a template to set its own content
type. For example: _generic.translate can set content type (via
request.client.additional_headers) to application/json and return
json from the template. This json could access the 1i18n functions
for a javascript helper. (John Rouillard)
- when template processing raises an exception the line number is
sometimes missing. This causes cgitb to raise a second exception
which clobbers the info about the template issue. As a stop-gap set
the line number to -1 so the original traceback can be seen. This
could be a bug in ZopeTAL. (John Rouillard)
- issue2551328 - REST results show next link if number of results is a
multiple of page size. There should be no next link. (Found by Patel
Malav and Bharath Kanama of the UMass-Boston CS682 Spring 2024
class; fix John Rouillard)
- issue2551264 - REST X-Total-Count header and @total_size count
incorrect when paginated - correct values are now returned.
(John Rouillard)
- issue2551331 - Fix repeat first/last methods. (John Rouillard)
- Fix import/export on windows. Use unix line terminating characters.
(John Rouillard)
- Fix anydbm session/otks clear() method on windows when backed by
dumbdbm. Also make anydbm detect the initialized database when
using dumbdbm. (John Rouillard)
- Use of '-' directory in static_files config option under windows
Python fixed. (John Rouillard)
- issue2551334 - number of test bugs that prevented test suite from
running under Windows Python are fixed. WIP. (John Rouillard)
- issue2551302 - Remove support for sqlite version 1 from
back_sqlite.py. We have been using sqlite3 for over a decade. (John
Rouillard)
- issue2551285 - Remove StructuredText support. reStructuredText is
still supported. (John Rouillard)
- Use roundup-demo -p option to set listening port. Was ignored
before. (John Rouillard)
- issue2551346 - Classic tracker's statusauditor raises error if
detectors/config.ini missing
STATUSAUDITOR_CHATTING_REQUIRES_TWO_USERS. The statusauditor.py for
jinja2 and classic templates has been changed to assume that this
option is off when the setting is missing from
detectors/config.ini. Other templates do not implement this option.
(John Rouillard)
- issue2551350 - Python changes for 3.12 with roundup 2.3.0. Fixes for
cgitb.py crash due to pydoc.html.header() signature change. (Patch
by Andrew (kragacles), applied John Rouillard)
- issue2551350 - Python changes for 3.12 with roundup 2.3.0. Fixes for
mailer.py crash due to change in starttls signature change. (Patch
by Andrew (kragacles), modified and applied John Rouillard)
- make classhelper link open in a new window by setting
target="_blank". This prevents overwriting of current page with the
classhelper if javascript is disabled. (John Rouillard)
- issue2551341 - if @columns missing from an index url, the
group headers colspan property = 0. Add "or 100" in
stanza's so headers span all rows (up to 100).
- fix roundup-server response requiring a 301 redirect. Did
not set content length leading to hang/error. (John
Rouillard)
- report basename of filename when template file is invalid
rather than reporting a TypeError. (John Rouillard)
- Make Last-Modified header use GMT not -0000 timezone. Fix error
reported by redbot testing. (John Rouillard)
- Send Vary: Accept-Encoding on any file that could be compressed
even if the file is not encoded/compressed. Found by Redbot
testing. (John Rouillard)
- make If-None-Match work for static file (@@file) case. Found by
Redbot testing (John Rouillard)
- Send vary: accept-encoding for if-modified-since conditional
requests where the file is not modified. (John Rouillard)
- Update JWT example in rest.py to use replacement for
datetime.datetime.utcnow(). (John Rouillard)
- issue2551219 - document requirements of PEM file when using
roundup-server in SSL/TLS mode. Report better error messages
when PEM file is missing certificate or private key. (John
Rouillard)
- Cleanup tracker index generation by roundup-server. Send
correct Content-Length headers so HTTP/1.1 connections don't
hang. (John Rouillard)
- Fix delay when using csv export actions. The CSV file is written
incrementally, so we can't determine the Content-Length. When using
HTTP/1.1, this causes a delay while the browser waits for a timeout.
Forcing the connection to close after the CSV file is written
removes the delay. (John Rouillard)
Features:
- issue2551323 - Remove XHTML support. Disabled option to set
html_version to xhtml. Running roundup commands with html_version
set to xhtml will result in an "Invalid value for HTML_VERSION:
'xhtml'" error. (John Rouillard)
- issue2551103 - add pragma 'display_protected' to roundup-admin. If
true, print protected attributes like id, activity, actor...
when using display or specification subcommands. (John Rouillard)
- add -P pragma=value command line option to roundup-admin. Allows
setting pragmas when using non-interactive mode. (John Rouillard)
- issue685275 - add pragma show_retired to control display of retired
items when using list/table. Add pragma display_header to print
headers for display command. Header displays designator and
retired/active status. (John Rouillard)
- issue2551299 - support config.ini rdbms option 'service'. Allow use
of a PostgreSQL connection service file (pg_service.conf) for
configuring database on a per-tracker basis. Also replaces use of
PGSERVICE env variable for single instance trackers. (From ML
question by ivanov. John Rouillard)
- issue2550852 - support for specifying a PostgreSQL schema to use for
the Roundup database. (Patch by Stuart McGraw; slight modifications,
tests, docs: John Rouillard).
- issue2551274: add configurable logging for REST API when something
fails, we now log status code and error message.
(Ralf Schlatterbeck)
- issue2551317 - add some Jinja2 examples to customizing.txt
document. (John Rouillard)
- multiple scripts/... updates - Python3, linting, enhancements:
weekly-report,schema-dump.py, roundup-reminder, copy-user.py,
dump_dbm_sessions_db.py, contributors.py (John Rouillard)
- roundup/msgfile.py can now be called as 'python msgfmt.py de.po de.mo'
or 'python msgfmt.py -o de.mo de.po' to compile a translation file if
GNU msgfmt is missing. (John Rouillard)
- save roundup-admin history between sessions. Load
~/.roundup_admin_rlrc file to set history-size persistently. Add
pragma history_length to override for a session. (John Rouillard)
- the roundup-admin history command now dumps the journal entries
in a more human readable format. Use the raw option to get the older
machine parsible output. (John Rouillard)
- Multiple JWT secrets are supported to allow key rotation. See
an updated config.ini for details. (John Rouillard)
- issue2551212 - wsgi performance improvement feature added in 2.2.0
is active by default. Can be turned off if needed. See upgrading.txt
for info. (John Rouillard)
- issue2551270 - Better templating support for JavaScript. Add
utils.readfile(file, optional=False) and utils.expandfile(file,
token_dict=None, optional=False). Allows reading an external file
(e.g. JavaScript) and inserting it using tal:contents or equivalent
jinja function. expandfile allows setting a dictionary and tokens in
the file of the form "%(token_name)s" will be replaced in the file
with the values from the dict. (John Rouillard)
- add @group to rest interface collection queries. Useful when using
optgroup in select elements. (John Rouillard)
- roundup-demo can set the hostname in the URL using the -H
parameter. So you can start a demo tracker that is available from
your network using 'roundup-demo ... -B hostname -H hostname'. (John
Rouillard)
- issue2551347 - make _generic.help.html work without property
settings. THis applies to classic or minimal trackers. It allows use
of classhelp without the property seting for informtion only
(e.g. description of what a priority or status means) without being
able to select the property in the classhelper. Good for adding help
for Link properties. (John Rouilllard)
- issue1525113 - notation to filter by logged-in user. Use
@current_user with properties that are a Link to the 'user' class to
match the currently logged in user. Allows sharing of queries like
"Issues I created" or "Issues I am assigned to" by removing the
hard coded user id number and replacing it with the current user's
id. Tracker templates updated to use it. (John Rouillard from a
patch by Jon C. Thomason)
- Add a /rest/data/user/roles REST endpoint. (John Rouillard)
- issue2551353 - Add roundup-classhelper for 2.4.0
release. Integrate new classhelper web component to wrap
existing classhelper link. This fixes a number of
outstanding bugs against the current classhelper using
current web features. (Patel Malav, Nikunj Thakkar,
Bharath Kanama with integration by John Rouillard)
- disable spellcheck on all password fields to try to prevent
browser from exposing passwords to external servers. (John
Rouillard)

(Found/reported by Alec\n Romano (4rdr), fix/tests John Rouillard)\n- issue2551282 - MySQL utf8mb4 issues and\n issue2551115 - Use utf8mb4 as a default for MySQL instead of utf8\n The default database type and collations have been set to:\n utf8mb4, utf8mb4_unicode_ci and utf8mb4_0900_bin. They are (sadly)\n configurable from config.ini. Require directions on upgrading the\n MySQL db have been documented in upgrading.txt.\n- issue2551063 - Rest/Xmlrpc interfaces needs failed login protection.\n Failed API login rate limiting with expiring lockout added. (John\n Rouillard)\n- issue2551184 - improve i18n handling. Patch to test to make sure it\n uses the test tracker's locale files and not other locale\n files. (Marcus Priesch)\n- issue2551283 - fail if version 2.4.9 of markdown2 is used, it broke\n [issue1](issue1) style links. Support markdown2 2.4.8 and earlier\n and 2.4.10 with its new schema filtering method. (John Rouillard)\n- multiple flake8 fixes (John Rouillard)\n- rename loop variable in 'for sendto in sendto:' (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551193 - Fix roundup for removal of cgi and cgitb standard\n python modules (and FieldStorage/MiniFieldStorage). Replaced imports\n from cgi to use roundup.anypy.cgi\\_ which will load the system cgi\n unless it is missing. Then it will load roundup.anypy.vendored.cgi\n and make \\*FieldStorage symbols available. Roundup uses its own\n cgitb.py and not the system cgitb.py. It looks like it's the\n precursor to the system cgitb.py. (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551278 - datetime.datetime.utcnow deprecation. Replace\n calls with equivalent that produces timezone aware dates rather than\n naive dates. (John Rouillard)\n- when using \"roundup-admin display\" indent the listing only if\n headers or protected fields are requested. This makes the output\n look like it did previously to 2.3.0 if the new features aren't\n used. Roundup-admin output was never meant to be machine parsed, but\n don't break it unless required. (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551290 - pip install roundup Hangs on Windows 10\n The install under windows goes into an infinite loop using pip or\n source install. (John Rouillard)\n- Document use of pyreadline3 to allow roundup-admin to have CLI editing\n on windows. (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551293 - remove schema_hook from Tracker instance. Looks like\n it was an obsolete hook used for testing. Never documented and not\n accessible from schema.py.\n- Fix roundup-admin security command. Lowercase its optional\n argument. Roles are indexed by lower case role name. So 'security\n User' and 'security user' should generate the same output. (John\n Rouillard from issue on mailing list by Chuck Cunningham)\n- make roundup-server exit more quickly on ^C. This seems to be\n limited to windows. (John Rouillard)\n- Fix error handling so failure during import of a non-user item\n doesn't cause a second traceback. (Found by Norbert Schlemmer, fix\n John Rouillard)\n- Handle out of memory error when importing large trackers in\n PostgreSQL. (Found by Norbert Schlemmer, extensive testing by\n Norbert, fix John Rouillard)\n- use unittest.mock rather than mock for\n test/test_hyperdbvals.py. (found by Ralf Schlatterbeck. Fix John\n Rouillard)\n- disable proxy with wget in roundup_healthcheck. (Norbert Schlemmer\n Noschvie on github.com)\n- support dicttoxml2.py for Roundup running on 3.7 and\n newer. dicttoxml uses a type alias: collection.Iterator that is\n dropped in Python 3.10. (found by Norbert Schlemmer, fix John\n Rouillard)\n- fix duplicate html id 'password' in user.item.html in all templates except\n jinja2. (John Rouillard)\n- fix unclosed file when saving index in indexer_dbm.py. (John Rouillard)\n- fix task index in devel tracker so it doesn't cause a crash if all\n fields are selected. (John Rouillard)\n- fix windows install. When using pip share directory is installed in\n a directory tree under the lib directory. Fix it so that Lib/share\n is used to install the share tree. The lets Roundup find tracker\n templates and translation files. (Found by Simon Eigeldinger, fix\n John Rouillard)\n- fix roundup-demo, interactive mode would nuke an existing tracker.\n (Found Tonu Mikk, fix John Rouillard)\n- fix detection/reporting when using a SQLite3 library without FTS5\n support. Install docs updated to state that FTS5 support is required\n when using SQLite for back end. (Found Tonu Mikk, fix John\n Rouillard)\n- issue2551320: user.help-search.html doesn't respect\n properties. Setting url parameter properties when using the\n classhelp for users now shows the requested properties. (Found by\n Patel Malav and Nikunj Thakkar of the UMass-Boston CS682 Spring\n 2024 class; fix John Rouillard)\n- use ast.eval_literal() rather than eval() to turn CSV exported\n string values into Python object/values.\n- use template's guess at Content-Type in headers only if Content-Type\n is not already set. This allows a template to set its own content\n type. For example: _generic.translate can set content type (via\n request.client.additional_headers) to application/json and return\n json from the template. This json could access the 1i18n functions\n for a javascript helper. (John Rouillard)\n- when template processing raises an exception the line number is\n sometimes missing. This causes cgitb to raise a second exception\n which clobbers the info about the template issue. As a stop-gap set\n the line number to -1 so the original traceback can be seen. This\n could be a bug in ZopeTAL. (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551328 - REST results show next link if number of results is a\n multiple of page size. There should be no next link. (Found by Patel\n Malav and Bharath Kanama of the UMass-Boston CS682 Spring 2024\n class; fix John Rouillard)\n- issue2551264 - REST X-Total-Count header and @total_size count\n incorrect when paginated - correct values are now returned.\n (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551331 - Fix repeat first/last methods. (John Rouillard)\n- Fix import/export on windows. Use unix line terminating characters.\n (John Rouillard)\n- Fix anydbm session/otks clear() method on windows when backed by\n dumbdbm. Also make anydbm detect the initialized database when\n using dumbdbm. (John Rouillard)\n- Use of '-' directory in static_files config option under windows\n Python fixed. (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551334 - number of test bugs that prevented test suite from\n running under Windows Python are fixed. WIP. (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551302 - Remove support for sqlite version 1 from\n back_sqlite.py. We have been using sqlite3 for over a decade. (John\n Rouillard)\n- issue2551285 - Remove StructuredText support. reStructuredText is\n still supported. (John Rouillard)\n- Use roundup-demo -p option to set listening port. Was ignored\n before. (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551346 - Classic tracker's statusauditor raises error if\n detectors/config.ini missing\n STATUSAUDITOR_CHATTING_REQUIRES_TWO_USERS. The statusauditor.py for\n jinja2 and classic templates has been changed to assume that this\n option is off when the setting is missing from\n detectors/config.ini. Other templates do not implement this option.\n (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551350 - Python changes for 3.12 with roundup 2.3.0. Fixes for\n cgitb.py crash due to pydoc.html.header() signature change. (Patch\n by Andrew (kragacles), applied John Rouillard)\n- issue2551350 - Python changes for 3.12 with roundup 2.3.0. Fixes for\n mailer.py crash due to change in starttls signature change. (Patch\n by Andrew (kragacles), modified and applied John Rouillard)\n- make classhelper link open in a new window by setting\n target=\"_blank\". This prevents overwriting of current page with the\n classhelper if javascript is disabled. (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551341 - if @columns missing from an index url, the\n group headers colspan property = 0. Add \"or 100\" in\n stanza's so headers span all rows (up to 100).\n- fix roundup-server response requiring a 301 redirect. Did\n not set content length leading to hang/error. (John\n Rouillard)\n- report basename of filename when template file is invalid\n rather than reporting a TypeError. (John Rouillard)\n- Make Last-Modified header use GMT not -0000 timezone. Fix error\n reported by redbot testing. (John Rouillard)\n- Send Vary: Accept-Encoding on any file that could be compressed\n even if the file is not encoded/compressed. Found by Redbot\n testing. (John Rouillard)\n- make If-None-Match work for static file (@@file) case. Found by\n Redbot testing (John Rouillard)\n- Send vary: accept-encoding for if-modified-since conditional\n requests where the file is not modified. (John Rouillard)\n- Update JWT example in rest.py to use replacement for\n datetime.datetime.utcnow(). (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551219 - document requirements of PEM file when using\n roundup-server in SSL/TLS mode. Report better error messages\n when PEM file is missing certificate or private key. (John\n Rouillard)\n- Cleanup tracker index generation by roundup-server. Send\n correct Content-Length headers so HTTP/1.1 connections don't\n hang. (John Rouillard)\n- Fix delay when using csv export actions. The CSV file is written\n incrementally, so we can't determine the Content-Length. When using\n HTTP/1.1, this causes a delay while the browser waits for a timeout.\n Forcing the connection to close after the CSV file is written\n removes the delay. (John Rouillard)\n\nFeatures:\n\n- issue2551323 - Remove XHTML support. Disabled option to set\n html_version to xhtml. Running roundup commands with html_version\n set to xhtml will result in an \"Invalid value for HTML_VERSION:\n 'xhtml'\" error. (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551103 - add pragma 'display_protected' to roundup-admin. If\n true, print protected attributes like id, activity, actor...\n when using display or specification subcommands. (John Rouillard)\n- add -P pragma=value command line option to roundup-admin. Allows\n setting pragmas when using non-interactive mode. (John Rouillard)\n- issue685275 - add pragma show_retired to control display of retired\n items when using list/table. Add pragma display_header to print\n headers for display command. Header displays designator and\n retired/active status. (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551299 - support config.ini rdbms option 'service'. Allow use\n of a PostgreSQL connection service file (pg_service.conf) for\n configuring database on a per-tracker basis. Also replaces use of\n PGSERVICE env variable for single instance trackers. (From ML\n question by ivanov. John Rouillard)\n- issue2550852 - support for specifying a PostgreSQL schema to use for\n the Roundup database. (Patch by Stuart McGraw; slight modifications,\n tests, docs: John Rouillard).\n- issue2551274: add configurable logging for REST API when something\n fails, we now log status code and error message.\n (Ralf Schlatterbeck)\n- issue2551317 - add some Jinja2 examples to customizing.txt\n document. (John Rouillard)\n- multiple scripts/... updates - Python3, linting, enhancements:\n weekly-report,schema-dump.py, roundup-reminder, copy-user.py,\n dump_dbm_sessions_db.py, contributors.py (John Rouillard)\n- roundup/msgfile.py can now be called as 'python msgfmt.py de.po de.mo'\n or 'python msgfmt.py -o de.mo de.po' to compile a translation file if\n GNU msgfmt is missing. (John Rouillard)\n- save roundup-admin history between sessions. Load\n ~/.roundup_admin_rlrc file to set history-size persistently. Add\n pragma history_length to override for a session. (John Rouillard)\n- the roundup-admin history command now dumps the journal entries\n in a more human readable format. Use the raw option to get the older\n machine parsible output. (John Rouillard)\n- Multiple JWT secrets are supported to allow key rotation. See\n an updated config.ini for details. (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551212 - wsgi performance improvement feature added in 2.2.0\n is active by default. Can be turned off if needed. See upgrading.txt\n for info. (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551270 - Better templating support for JavaScript. Add\n utils.readfile(file, optional=False) and utils.expandfile(file,\n token_dict=None, optional=False). Allows reading an external file\n (e.g. JavaScript) and inserting it using tal:contents or equivalent\n jinja function. expandfile allows setting a dictionary and tokens in\n the file of the form \"%(token_name)s\" will be replaced in the file\n with the values from the dict. (John Rouillard)\n- add @group to rest interface collection queries. Useful when using\n optgroup in select elements. (John Rouillard)\n- roundup-demo can set the hostname in the URL using the -H\n parameter. So you can start a demo tracker that is available from\n your network using 'roundup-demo ... -B hostname -H hostname'. (John\n Rouillard)\n- issue2551347 - make _generic.help.html work without property\n settings. THis applies to classic or minimal trackers. It allows use\n of classhelp without the property seting for informtion only\n (e.g. description of what a priority or status means) without being\n able to select the property in the classhelper. Good for adding help\n for Link properties. (John Rouilllard)\n- issue1525113 - notation to filter by logged-in user. Use\n @current_user with properties that are a Link to the 'user' class to\n match the currently logged in user. Allows sharing of queries like\n \"Issues I created\" or \"Issues I am assigned to\" by removing the\n hard coded user id number and replacing it with the current user's\n id. Tracker templates updated to use it. (John Rouillard from a\n patch by Jon C. Thomason)\n- Add a /rest/data/user/roles REST endpoint. (John Rouillard)\n- issue2551353 - Add roundup-classhelper for 2.4.0\n release. Integrate new classhelper web component to wrap\n existing classhelper link. This fixes a number of\n outstanding bugs against the current classhelper using\n current web features. (Patel Malav, Nikunj Thakkar,\n Bharath Kanama with integration by John Rouillard)\n- disable spellcheck on all password fields to try to prevent\n browser from exposing passwords to external servers.
