Details

  • Bugfix #1425: Align href URL encoding with oc10

We now use the same percent encoding for URLs in WebDAV href properties as ownCloud 10.

  • Bugfix #1461: Fix public link webdav permissions

We now correctly render oc:permissions on the root collection of a publicly shared folder when it has more than read permissions.

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1461

  • Bugfix #1457: Cloning of internal mesh data lost some values

This update fixes a bug in Mentix that caused some (non-critical) values to be lost during data cloning that happens internally.

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1457

  • Bugfix #1429: Purge non-empty dirs from trash-bin

This wasn’t possible before if the directory was not empty

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1429

  • Bugfix #1408: Get error status from trash-bin response

Previously the status code was gathered from the wrong response.

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1408

  • Enhancement #1451: Render additional share with in ocs sharing api

Recipients can now be distinguished by their email, which is rendered as additional info in the ocs api for share and file owners as well as share recipients.

https://github.com/owncloud/ocis/issues/1190 https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1451

  • Enhancement #1424: We categorized the list of expected failures

We categorized all expected failures into File (Basic file management like up and download, move, copy, properties, trash, versions and chunking), Sync (Synchronization features like etag propagation, setting mtime and locking files), Share (File and sync features in a shared scenario), User management (User and group management features) and Other (API, search, favorites, config, capabilities, not existing endpoints, CORS and others). The Review and fix the tests that have sharing step to work with ocis reference has been removed, as we now have the sharing category

  • Enhancement #1434: CERNBox REST driver for groupprovider service

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1434

  • Enhancement #1400: Checksum support

We now support checksums on file uploads and PROPFIND results. On uploads, the ocdav service now forwards the OC-Checksum (and the similar TUS Upload-Checksum) header to the storage provider. We added an internal http status code that allows storage drivers to return checksum errors. On PROPFINDs, ocdav now renders the <oc:checksum> header in a bug compatible way for oc10 backward compatibility with existing clients. Finally, GET and HEAD requests now return the OC-Checksum header.

  • Enhancement #1431: Update npm packages to fix vulnerabilities

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1431

  • Enhancement #1415: Indicate in EOS containers that TUS is not supported

The OCDAV propfind response previously hardcoded the TUS headers due to which clients such as phoenix used the TUS protocol for uploads, which EOS doesn’t support. Now we pass this property as an opaque entry in the containers metadata.

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1415

  • Enhancement #1402: Parse EOS sys ACLs to generate CS3 resource permissions

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1402

  • Enhancement #1477: Set quota when creating home directory in EOS

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1477

  • Enhancement #1416: Use updated etag of home directory even if it is cached

We cache the home directory and shares folder etags as calculating these is an expensive process. But if these directories were updated after the previously calculated etag was cached, we can ignore this calculation and directly return the new one.

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1416

  • Enhancement #1478: Enhance error handling for grappa REST drivers

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1478

  • Enhancement #1453: Add functionality to share resources with groups

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1453

  • Enhancement #99: Add stubs and manager for groupprovider service

Recently, there was a separation of concerns with regard to users and groups in CS3APIs. This PR adds the required stubs and drivers for the group manager.

https://github.com/cs3org/cs3apis/pull/99 https://github.com/cs3org/cs3apis/pull/102 https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1358

  • Enhancement #1462: Hash public share passwords

The share passwords were only base64 encoded. Added hashing using bcrypt with configurable hash cost.

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1462

  • Enhancement #1464: LDAP driver for the groupprovider service

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1464

  • Enhancement #1430: Capture non-deterministic behavior on storages

As a developer creating/maintaining a storage driver I want to be able to validate the atomicity of all my storage driver operations. * Test for: Start 2 uploads, pause the first one, let the second one finish first, resume the first one at some point in time. Both uploads should finish. Needs to result in 2 versions, last finished is the most recent version. * Test for: Start 2 MKCOL requests with the same path, one needs to fail.

  • Enhancement #1456: Fetch user groups in OIDC and LDAP backend

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1456

  • Enhancement #1429: Add s3ng storage driver, storing blobs in a s3-compatible blobstore

We added a new storage driver (s3ng) which stores the file metadata on a local filesystem (reusing the decomposed filesystem of the ocis driver) and the actual content as blobs in any s3-compatible blobstore.

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1429

  • Enhancement #1467: Align default location for xrdcopy binary

https://github.com/cs3org/reva/pull/1467
