Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

[5.6.0] - 2024-05-16

Fixed

• notification was lost in some cases
• remove empty array from json schema

Added

• ntfy backend

[5.5.4] - 2024-02-27

Fixed

• make foris-controller compatible with paho-mqtt 2.X

[5.5.3] - 2024-02-08

Changed

• networks: handle multiple "wans" and validate empty "MAC" with "wwan", accept "wwan" with "slot_path"

[5.5.2] - 2023-05-09

Fixed

• lan: Unify DHCPv4/6 lease timestamps to the "end of the lease" format instead of DHCPv6 "lease duration" (which is reported by odhcpd).

[5.5.1] - 2023-02-24

Changed

• tests: Refactor helper functions into shared module.
• tests: Use tox to run tests and linter checks instead of using deprecated setuptools integration for such tasks.
• setup.py: Drop the unnecessary egg suffix in VCS links.
• setup.py: Remove obsolete setuptools keywords (tests_require, setup_requires, dependency_links, ...).
• tox: Use shared tox.ini for foris-controller and modules.

Fixed

• guest: Use correct guest network bridge name for Turris OS 6.0+, so QoS for guest network will be able to start again.
• wan: Do not crash when some of the PPPoE credentials options are missing in uci config.

[5.5.0] - 2023-01-20

Added

• Add new backend "ubus" for querying /bin/ubus.

Changed

• lan+wan: refactor querying ubus from lan & wan backends.
• networks: Change severity of log message during detection of network bridges from "warning" to "debug". It will no longer spam system log during normal operation of foris-controller with message "WARNING:foris_controller_backends.networks:No anonymous section 'br-<bridge_name>' found among network devices.".
• lan: Make fetching dhcpv6 leases more resilient to unexpected values.

[5.4.0] - 2022-12-15
