Salt 0.9.2 Release Notes
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
:release: 2011-09-17
|
|
|
|
Salt 0.9.2 has arrived! 0.9.2 is primarily a bugfix release, the exciting
|
|
component in 0.9.2 is greatly improved support for salt states. All of the
|
|
salt states interfaces have been more thoroughly tested and the new salt-states
|
|
git repo is growing with example of how to use states.
|
|
|
|
This release introduces salt states for early developers and testers to start
|
|
helping us clean up the states interface and make it ready for the world!
|
|
|
|
0.9.2 also fixes a number of bugs found on Python 2.6.
|
|
|
|
Download!
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
The Salt source can be downloaded from the salt GitHub site:
|
|
|
|
:download:`salt-0.9.2.tar.gz`
|
|
|
|
Or from PyPI:
|
|
|
|
https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/s/salt/salt-0.9.2.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
For instructions on how to set up Salt please see the :ref:`installation`
|
|
instructions.
|
|
|
|
New Features
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Salt-Call Additions
|
|
````````````````````
|
|
|
|
The salt-call command has received an overhaul, it now hooks into the outputter
|
|
system so command output looks clean, and the logging system has been hooked
|
|
into salt-call, so the -l option allows the logging output from salt minion
|
|
functions to be displayed.
|
|
|
|
The end result is that the salt-call command can execute the state system and
|
|
return clean output:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
# salt-call state.highstate
|
|
|
|
State System Fixes
|
|
```````````````````
|
|
|
|
The state system has been tested and better refined. As of this release the
|
|
state system is ready for early testers to start playing with. If you are
|
|
interested in working with the state system please check out the (still very
|
|
small) salt-states GitHub repo:
|
|
|
|
https://github.com/saltstack/salt-states
|
|
|
|
This git repo is the active development branch for determining how a clean
|
|
salt-state database should look and act. Since the salt state system is still
|
|
very young a lot of help is still needed here. Please fork the salt-states
|
|
repo and help us develop a truly large and scalable system for configuration
|
|
management!
|
|
|
|
Notable Bug Fixes
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Python 2.6 String Formatting
|
|
````````````````````````````
|
|
|
|
Python 2.6 does not support format strings without an index identifier, all of
|
|
them have been repaired.
|
|
|
|
Cython Loading Disabled by Default
|
|
``````````````````````````````````
|
|
|
|
Cython loading requires a development tool chain to be installed on the minion,
|
|
requiring this by default can cause problems for most Salt deployments. If
|
|
Cython auto loading is desired it will need to be turned on in the minion
|
|
config. |
