We are pleased to announce the availability of Artifactory 1.2.1-rc0. This is the first release candidate towards the final release of 1.2.1. Major changes in this release ------------------------------------------- - Security permission targets are now both repository-based and path-based - More complete security enforcement - Downgraded the required JDK in web-application deployment style to 1.5 - Improvements to the UI-based deployment - Ability to change own password - Bug fixes, bug fixes... The complete list of changes see: https://www.jfrog.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?mode=hide&requestId=10186 and the full 1.2.1 road map is here: https://www.jfrog.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&pid=10070&fixfor=10160 Upgrading from 1.2.0.x ---------------------------------- You can upgrade your repositories content and configuration from the previous versions. To upgrade the configuration copy the $ARTIFACTORY_HOME/etc/artifactory.config.xml file over to the new installation. To upgrade repositories content, either use the UI's import/export facility from the old version (preferable) or copy over the $ARTIFACTORY_HOME/repos/jcr folder from the old version to ARTIFACTORY_HOME/data/jcr. Unfortunately, security settings have dramatically changed and cannot be imported. A note about security changes --------------------------------------------- This version introduces an improved version of the security model. The new model allows for setting permissions on targets that are a combination of a repository and a path prefix inside a repository. The following permission-targets samples should make this concept clearer: lib-releases:org/apache refers to any artifact deployed under the "org/apache" path (including sub paths) inside the "lib-releases" repository ANY:org/apache refers to any artifact deployed under the "org/apache" path (including sub paths) inside any repository plugin-snapshots:ANY refers to any artifact deployed under any path inside the "plugin-snapshots" repository ANY:ANY refers to any artifact deployed under any path inside any repository (this is useful for allowing global read permission for authenticated users, where anonymous download is not enabled) The roles of admins, deployers and readers are still applicable for this new type of permission-targets. The admin role is now fully functional for setting permissions to other users inside a permission-target you are an admin of. Documentation ----------------------- Please note that since this is only a release candidate not all docs have been updated to reflect the latest changes. Enjoy! The Artifactory Team |
