Hello fellow CFEngineers,
We are happy to announce the general availability of CFEngine 3.21.0 which marks the beginning of the 3.21 LTS series which will be supported for the next 3 years. Since 3.18.0, our last LTS series (still supported for another 1.5 years) much has happened. Notably, custom promise types had more attributes implemented:
action_policy- for telling modules to produce warnings instead of fixing (repairing) promises.
comment- for documenting the reasoning and context around a promise.
handle&depends_on- for documentation and controlling evaluation order.
ifelapsed- to delay repeated evaluations of a promise until some amount of time has elapsed.
meta- for metadata/tags about a promise.
with- gives you an easy way to expand results of function calls into a temporary variable.
Additionally two new attributes have been introduced.
system_log_level- for controlling what log messages go to syslog & Windows Event Log.
copyfrom_restrict_keys- for restricting which hosts cf-agent will copy files from.
For more details including changes to dependencies, platform support, and ancillary tooling please read our blog post.
Community packages for 3.21.0 are available from the community download page and public repositories. Enterprise packages are available from the Enterprise package download page.
