Release Notes
=============
This chapter has important information for releases in it.
If you're upgrading from a previous release, please read it
carefully, or at least skim over it.
WIP
=====
**New features**
**Other changed**
* Plugin writers: Internal restructuring led to mediagoblin.db.sql* be
mediagoblin.db.* starting from 0.3.3
* Dependency list has been reduced not requireing the "webob" package anymore.
0.3.2
=====
This will be the last release that is capable of converting from an earlier
MongoDB-based MediaGoblin instance to the newer SQL-based system.
**Do this to upgrade**
1. Make sure to run ``bin/gmg dbupdate`` after upgrading.
**New features**
* **3d model support!**
You can now upload STL and OBJ files and display them in
MediaGoblin. Requires a recent-ish Blender; for details see:
:ref:`deploying-chapter`
* **trim_whitespace**
We bundle the optional plugin trim_whitespace which reduces the size
of the delivered html output by reducing redundant whitespace.
See :ref:`core-plugin-section` for plugin documentation
* **A new API!**
It isn't well documented yet but we do have an API. There is an
`android application in progress <https://gitorious.org/mediagoblin/mediagoblin-android>`_
which makes use of it, and there are some demo applications between
`automgtic <https://github.com/jwandborg/automgtic>`_, an
automatic media uploader for your desktop
and `OMGMG <https://github.com/jwandborg/omgmg>`_, an example of
a web application hooking up to the API.
This is a plugin, so you have to enable it in your mediagoblin
config file by adding a section under [plugins] like::
[plugins]
[[mediagoblin.plugins.api]]
Note that the API works but is not nailed down... the way it is
called may change in future releases.
* **OAuth login support**
For applications that use OAuth to connect to the API.
This is a plugin, so you have to enable it in your mediagoblin
config file by adding a section under [plugins] like::
[plugins]
[[mediagoblin.plugins.oauth]]
* **Collections**
We now have user-curated collections support. These are arbitrary
galleries that are customizable by users. You can add media to
these by clicking on the paperclip icon when logged in and looking
at a media entry.
* **OpenStreetMap licensing display improvements**
More accurate display of OSM licensing, and less disruptive: you
click to "expand" the display of said licensing.
Geolocation is also now on by default.
* **Miscelaneous visual improvements**
We've made a number of small visual improvements including newer and
nicer looking thumbnails and improved checkbox placement.
0.3.1
=====
**Do this to upgrade**
1. Make sure to run ``bin/gmg dbuptdate`` after upgrading.
2. If you set up your server config with an older version of
mediagoblin and the mediagoblin docs, it's possible you don't
have the "theme static files" alias, so double check to make
sure that section is there if you are having problems.
**New features**
* **theming support**
MediaGoblin now also includes theming support, which you can
read about in the section :ref:`theming-chapter`.
* **flatpages**
MediaGoblin has a flatpages plugin allowing you to add pages that
are aren't media-related like "About this site...", "Terms of
service...", etc.
See :ref:`core-plugin-section` for plugin documentation
0.3.0
=====
This release has one important change. You need to act when
upgrading from a previous version!
This release changes the database system from MongoDB to
SQL(alchemy). If you want to setup a fresh instance, just
follow the instructions in the deployment chapter. If on
the other hand you want to continue to use one instance,
read on.
To convert your data from MongoDB to SQL(alchemy), you need
to follow these steps:
1. Make sure your MongoDB is still running and has your
data, it's needed for the conversion.
2. Configure the ``sql_engine`` URI in the config to represent
your target database (see: :ref:`deploying-chapter`)
3. You need an empty database.
4. Then run the following command::
bin/gmg [-cf mediagoblin_config.ini] convert_mongo_to_sql
5. Start your server and investigate.
6. That's it.
