Salt 0.12.0 Release Notes
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
Another feature release of Salt is here! Some exciting additions are included
|
|
with more ways to make salt modular and even easier management of the salt
|
|
file server.
|
|
|
|
Major Features
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
Modular Fileserver Backend
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
The new modular fileserver backend allows for any external system to be used
|
|
as a salt file server. The main benifit here is that it is now possible to
|
|
tell the master to directly use a git remote location, or many git remote
|
|
locations directly, automatically mapping git branches and tags to salt
|
|
environments.
|
|
|
|
Windows is First Class!
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
New Default Outputter
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
Salt displays data to the terminal via the outputter system. For a long time
|
|
the default outputter for Salt has been the python pretty print librairy.
|
|
While this has been a generally resonable outputter, it did have many failings.
|
|
The new default outputter is called "nested", it recursively scans return data
|
|
structures and prints them out cleanly.
|
|
|
|
If the result of the new nested outputter is not desired any other outputter
|
|
can be used via the --out option, or the output option can be set in the master
|
|
and minion configs to change the default outputter.
|
|
|
|
Set Grains Remotely
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
A new function has been added to the grains execution module that allows for
|
|
grains to be set on the minion.
