propellor (0.5.2) unstable; urgency=medium

  • A bug that caused propellor to hang when updating a running docker container appears to have been fixed. Note that since it affects the propellor process that serves as "init" of docker containers, they have to be restarted for the fix to take effect.
  • Licence changed from GPL to BSD.
  • A few changes to allow building Propellor on OSX. One user reports successfully using it there.

propellor (0.5.1) unstable; urgency=medium

  • Primary DNS servers now have allow-transfer automatically populated with the IP addresses of secondary dns servers. So, it's important that all secondary DNS servers have an ipv4 (and/or ipv6) property configured.
  • Deal with old ssh connection caching sockets.
  • Add missing build deps and deps. Closes: #745459

propellor (0.5.0) unstable; urgency=medium

  • Removed root domain records from SOA. Instead, use RootDomain when calling Dns.primary.
  • Dns primary and secondary properties are now revertable.
  • When unattendedUpgrades is enabled on an Unstable or Testing system, configure it to allow the upgrades.
  • New website, https://propellor.branchable.com/

propellor (0.4.0) unstable; urgency=medium

  • Propellor can configure primary DNS servers, including generating zone files, which is done by looking at the properties of hosts in a domain.
  • The cname property was renamed to alias as it does not always generate CNAME in the DNS.
  • Constructor of Property has changed (use property function instead).
  • All Property combinators now combine together their Attr settings. So Attr settings can be made inside a propertyList, for example.
  • Run all cron jobs under chronic from moreutils to avoid unnecessary mails.

propellor (0.2.3) unstable; urgency=medium

  • docker: Fix laziness bug that caused running containers to be unnecessarily stopped and committed.
  • Add locking so only one propellor can run at a time on a host.
  • docker: When running as effective init inside container, wait on zombies.
  • docker: Added support for configuring shared volumes and linked containers.

-- Joey Hess joeyh@debian.org Tue, 08 Apr 2014 02:07:37 -0400

propellor (0.2.2) unstable; urgency=medium

  • Now supports provisioning docker containers with architecture/libraries that do not match the host.
  • Fixed a bug that caused file modes to be set to 600 when propellor modified the file (did not affect newly created files).

-- Joey Hess joeyh@debian.org Fri, 04 Apr 2014 01:07:32 -0400

propellor (0.2.1) unstable; urgency=medium

  • First release with Debian package.

-- Joey Hess joeyh@debian.org Thu, 03 Apr 2014 01:43:14 -0400

propellor (0.2.0) unstable; urgency=low

  • Added support for provisioning Docker containers.
  • Bootstrap deployment now pushes the git repo to the remote host over ssh, securely.
  • propellor --add-key configures a gpg key, and makes propellor refuse to pull commits from git repositories not signed with that key. This allows propellor to be securely used with public, non-encrypted git repositories without the possibility of MITM.
  • Added support for type-safe reversions. Only some properties can be reverted; the type checker will tell you if you try something that won't work.
  • New syntactic sugar for building a list of properties, including revertable properties.
