Release 0.6.0

Summary

Release 0.6.0 kept momentum on the new visual editor while paving the way for the runtime overhaul scheduled for 0.7.0.

Released: 5 Aug 2024

Highlights

  • Old YAML editor removed now that the visual editor includes raw-edit support and Run & Trace integration.
  • Visual editor recognises job-defined context variables and hides empty action descriptions to reduce clutter.
  • HTTP poll input and HTTP output gained support for additional verbs (PUT, PATCH, DELETE, plus OPTIONS, HEAD on poll) so more APIs can be modelled without Lua.

Fixes and improvements

  • Smoothed the path toward action disablement in the editor, reducing the flicker seen when toggling filters during Run & Trace.
  • Improved job removal so deployments are not marked as removed until the change is safely stored.

Known issues

  • Run & Trace may emit extra batches when the event limit is set above one. Keep limits low or upgrade to 0.7.x where the fix ships.
  • Some legacy DSL connectors still rely on _raw for non-JSON payloads. Expect consistent json handling after the 0.7.x runtime update.

Looking ahead

  • Streaming event envelopes and package distribution (Linux APT channel, ARM builds) remained in progress and arrived with the runtime refactor in 0.7.x.
