2024-06-27​

API / Control Plane​

Fixed​

• Removed leading hyphens when generating names of Jobs with an unspecified spec.namePrefix.
• Draining of non-operational JobRunnerGroups with queued, canceled Jobs now completes. Previously, these JobRunnerGroups were stuck in a non-operational state.
• A race condition in which a JobRunnerGroup queue could stop running Jobs until agent reconnection. When this condition occurs, we now continue running Jobs.
• A race condition in which applying many JobRunnerGroups for one cluster simultaneously could result in an Internal Server Error. The race has been removed.

Changed​

• Kubernetes namespaces referenced in JobRunnerGroups must now exist when creating the JobRunnerGroup.
• Job submission is now denied with a status code 503 (Unavailable) if both no Pods are available and no previous Jobs were run. This helps prevent creating Jobs for broken JobRunnerGroups.

2024-03-06​

Operator v0.16.0​

Added​

• Local Sandboxes containing local workloads without associated services are now supported.
• The tunnel-proxy has a new RPC called GetHostnames used by signadot local connect to serve more Service types and operate independently of cluster IP networks.

Fixed​

• When running with Istio enabled, the tunnel-proxy service now has better support for TCP over its socks5 server because the appProtocol field in the associated Service is now correctly configured for Istio.
• Sandboxes with many forks were causing many unnecessary reconciles and reconciliation conflicts that could lead to hotlooping. This problem was fixed by adding stable orderings to some custom resource structures.

CLI v0.7.0​

Added​

• RouteGroups now support TTL.
• A new sub-command signadot local proxy is available, allowing one to proxy in-cluster services in a way similar to Kubernetes port-forwarding.
• A new connection type, ControlPlaneProxy for signadot local connect is available, which allows using local without a kubeconfig - intended primarily for onboarding.
• When running signadot local connect against a cluster with Signadot Operator ≥ v0.16.0, all Kubernetes service names are now available via DNS on the local machine, instead of only clusterIP typed services. Additionally, in the case of StatefulSets with associated headless services, the StatefulSet pod names are available as a subdomain names of the service name pod-0.name.namespace.svc, pod-1.name.namespace.svc etc.
• When running signadot local connect against a cluster with Signadot Operator ≥ v0.16.0, local workloads with no associated services are now supported.
• There is a new field in the local section of the config file, called virtualIPNet documented here.

Changed​

• signadot local connect --wait now accepts an optional string argument indicating none, connect or sandboxes, defaulting to connect. These arguments cause the command to wait for nothing, outbound connection success, or outbound connection success and sandbox re-connection success respectively. By default, signadot local connect now behaves as signadot local connect --wait connect.
• When connected to an operator version ≥ v0.16.0, traffic routing uses virtual IPs, which is safer and allows use in more contexts.

Deprecated​

• The outbound field of a local connection is only pertinent when connecting to Signadot Operator < v0.16.0.

2024-03-01​

API / Control Plane​

Added​

Added​

Shortname aliases for sandbox (sb), routegroup (rg), cluster (cl), and resourceplugins (rp)

Fixed​

While connected using signadot local connect, the CLI now will not add entries to /etc/hosts which contain an IP address outside of the ranges configured to route to the cluster. Instead, it will log a warning.

2024-01-24​

API / Control Plane​

Fixed​

• Resolved issue that caused new users to be unable to register using email / password based authentication.
• Resolved issue that caused an HTTP 500 error when new users attempt to login when "Auto-Provision users" setting in SSO is disabled. This now returns an HTTP 403 instead.

• The routeserver component now publishes metrics in Prometheus format.

Changed​

• DevMesh sidecars use the new Routes API, offering a significant speedup in in-cluster routing propagation.
• DevMesh annotation (sidecar.signadot.com/inject) has changed:
  • The value http and grpc now behave the same as true and inject the envoy-based sidecar introduced in v0.14.
  • "false" (as a yaml string) will disable injection.
  • Parse errors of annotation values now also default to the above sidecar, logging an error.
• Local connect improvements
  • Improved the method used to find the cluster IP network range in the Kubernetes cluster used to set up local networking. If it fails it will fall back to estimation as done previously.
  • The tunnel-api no longer returns DNS entries to the CLI that are outside the specified CIDR range. As a result, /etc/hosts managed in the CLI will omit entries outside the range.

Deprecated​

• The environment variable $SIGNADOT_SANDBOX_ID in scripts in Resource Plugin steps is now deprecated, and the newly added $SIGNADOT_SANDBOX_ROUTING_KEY should be used in its place.

Removed​

• Images (execpod-sidecar) and CustomResourceDefinitions (signadotresources and signadotresourceplugins) which were associated with V1 Resources have been removed. These have been superseded by V2 ResourcePlugins.

When signadot local connect is run, any sandboxes that were previously associated with a machine and not deleted will re-associate with the machine. Refer to local workloads documentation for details.
  • --clean-local-sandboxes flag added to signadot local disconnect to delete the locally associated sandboxes during disconnect.
• Other:

The major change in this release is that the "Workspace" concept has been renamed to "Sandbox" to better convey what it represents.

As part of the rename, we have introduced a new Helm chart (signadot/operator) and new container image repositories. The old Helm chart (signadot/workspaces) is still available, but is deprecated. Please see the Action Required note below if you need to migrate a cluster that was already running the old chart.

Note that the new Helm chart does not include the signadot Namespace object, so you will need to create the signadot namespace before installing the chart.

# Save the cluster-agent Secret.
kubectl -n signadot get secret cluster-agent -o yaml > /tmp/cluster-agent.yaml

# Remove the old chart.
helm uninstall signadot-workspaces

# Wait for the old 'signadot' namespace to finish finalizing.
# Let this run until you see the message: namespaces "signadot" not found
while kubectl get ns signadot; do sleep 5; done

# Create the 'signadot' namespace again.
kubectl create ns signadot

# Repopulate the cluster-agent Secret.
kubectl -n signadot create -f /tmp/cluster-agent.yaml
rm /tmp/cluster-agent.yaml

# Install the new chart (note the different chart name).
helm repo update
helm install signadot-operator signadot/operator
