Full Changelog

  • VFS-6338 Enhanced API of the mechanism for importing existing data into Onedata spaces without need for copying the data. The mechanism is now called "storage import". Introduced modes of storage import: "manual" which allows for manual registration of files and "auto" which enables automatic detection and import of files from the storage. Introduced possibility to forcefully start/stop scans of auto storage import. Redesigned GUI related to storage import, adjusted to the new features.
  • VFS-6456 Show more details about lack of privileges when trying to perform various actions in GUI.
  • VFS-6535 Updated S3 SDK library to 1.8.7.
  • VFS-6570 Showing loading indicator in file browser until file is available for download.
  • VFS-6577 Improve data transfer performance to object storages (e.g. S3) by aligning transferred block size to the object size on target storage, thus minimizing the overhead necessary when updating a file object with partial content.
  • VFS-6623 S3 storage helper now supports public buckets, which do not require any credentials. The access and secret keys can be left empty when adding storage.
  • VFS-6673 Added support for Archivematica, allowing to use Onedata spaces as Archivematica transfer sources. Oneclient now has a special command line flag --enable-archivematica, which toggles automatic generation of Archivematica configuration and metadata virtual files in the Fuse file system.
  • VFS-6685 Added new REST API for removing custom file metadata (xattrs, json and rdf).
  • VFS-6732 New JSON and RDF metadata editor based on Ace Editor.
  • VFS-6746 Added available QoS parameters suggestion box in QoS expression editor.
  • VFS-6845 Prevent application from stopping until all documents are correctly persisted in order to improve resistance to temporary database errors.
  • VFS-6851 Fixed a security issue in Oneprovider share GUI.
  • VFS-6853 Matching session cookie is now required to verify a GUI access tokens (they are used behind the scenes by the Onedata web applications), which increases security.
  • VFS-6925 Fixed inability to scroll down files list in Firefox on macOS using HiDPI display.
