I'm pleased to announce the release of Foreman 0.3 Download from:
Source: http://theforeman.org/attachments/download/237/foreman-0.3.tar.bz2 RPM: http://yum.theforeman.org/stable/RPMS/foreman-0.3-1.noarch.rpm It is recommended to upgrade your foreman smart proxy to the latest version as well. Highlights of this release include: SearchingAn extensive rewrite of the search system was performed. - Foreman now has a searchbar that prompts for possible search fields and values. - Searches can consist of multiple clauses with complex logic operations. - Previous searches can be saved as a bookmark and made public for others to use. - Many more search conditions, among them: - Host can be found by their parameters - Host can be found by their classes (direct associations or though host groups). - Host can be found by all valid combinations (e.g. multiple facts, report status, time stamps etc) - Audits search target have been greatly enhanced - All Search conditions could be used via the API as well - Search can apply on pages such as the dashboard (e.g. show only hosts in environment != development) Authorization - A user is always granted access to their own account information. This also allows Internal users to change their password even if they do not have edit rights on User. - Additional permission groups have been added to control access to nearly all of Foreman's feature. Charting - The graphing libraries have been replaced with the Highchart system. - Internet access is no longer required to view charts. - They look way better :p Virtualization - The hypervisor pages now show more information about their guests. - Virtual clients can now be deleted/stopped/started etc. Smart-proxy extensions - Puppet certificates can now be displayed, signed and revoked from within Foreman. - Autosign entries can be managed from within Foreman. API Many more operations that are available from the Web interface have been exposed via the API. These are just a few:- - Classes per host - Host's last report - Statistics can be retrieved - Complex search queries could be performed via the API as well using the same search syntax as in the UI Information for developers - The Backend Prototype Javascript library has been replaced with jQuery, thus providing a much richer set of graphical browser components Misc. - All communication between smart-proxies and Foreman could be encrypted over HTTPS channels. - Support for Scientific Linux has been added. - Most operations now refer to the host by its name rather than its id in the URL. - Selected hosts tickbox works across multiple pages. - Foreman handles unreachable proxies gracefully. - Hosts which report skipped operations are no longer considered as being in error state. - When creating or editing a host the provisioning templates that will be used are displayed.
