# Whats New
|
|
This document attempts to track **major** changes and additions in ENiGMA½. For details, see GitHub.
|
|
|
|
## 0.0.12-beta
|
|
* The `master` branch has become mainline. What this means to users is `git pull` will always give you the latest and greatest. Make sure to read [Updating](/docs/admin/updating.md) and keep an eye on `WHATSNEW.md` (this file) and [UPGRADE](UPGRADE.md)! See also [ticket #276](https://github.com/NuSkooler/enigma-bbs/issues/276).
|
|
* The default configuration has been moved to [config_default.js](/core/config_default.js).
|
|
* A full configuration revamp has taken place. Configuration files such as `config.hjson`, `menu.hjson`, and `theme.hjson` can now utilize includes via the `includes` directive, reference 'self' sections using `@reference:` and import environment variables with `@environment`.
|
|
* An explicit prompt file previously specified by `general.promptFile` in `config.hjson` is no longer necessary. Instead, this now simply part of the `prompts` section in `menu.hjson`. The default setup still creates a separate prompt HJSON file, but it is `includes`ed in `menu.hjson`. With the removal of prompts the `PromptsChanged` event will no longer be fired.
|
|
* New `PV` ACS check for arbitrary user properties. See [ACS](/docs/configuration/acs.md) for details.
|
|
* The `message` arg used by `msg_list` has been deprecated. Please starting using `messageIndex` for this purpose. Support for `message` will be removed in the future.
|
|
* A number of new MCI codes (see [MCI](./docs/art/mci.md))
|
|
|
|
## 0.0.11-beta
|
|
* Upgraded from `alpha` to `beta` -- The software is far along and mature enough at this point!
|
|
* Development is now against Node.js 12.x LTS. Other versions may work but are not currently supported!
|
|
* [QWK support](/docs/messageareas/qwk.md)
|
|
* `oputil fb scan *areaTagWildcard*` scans all areas in which wildcard is matched.
|
|
* The archiver configuration `escapeTelnet` has been renamed `escapeIACs`. Support for the old value will be removed in the future.
|
|
|
|
## 0.0.10-alpha
|
|
+ `oputil.js user rename USERNAME NEWNAME`
|
|
+ `my_messages.js` module (defaulted to "m" at the message menu) to list public messages addressed to the currently logged in user. Takes into account their username and `real_name` property.
|
|
+ SSH Public Key Authentication has been added. The system uses a OpenSSH style public key set on the `ssh_public_key` user property.
|
|
+ 2-Factor (2FA) authentication is now available using [RFC-4266 - HOTP: HMAC-Based One-Time Password Algorithm)](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4226), [RFC-6238 - TOTP: Time-Based One-Time Password Algorithm](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6238), or [Google Authenticator](http://google-authenticator.com/). QR codes for activation are available as well. One-time backup aka recovery codes can also be used. See [Security](/docs/configuration/security.md) for more info!
|
|
* New ACS codes for new 2FA/OTP: `AR` and `AF`. See [ACS](/docs/configuration/acs.md) for details.
|
|
+ `oputil.js user 2fa USERNAME TYPE` enables 2-factor authentication for a user.
|
|
* `oputil.js user info USERNAME --security` can now display additional security information such as 2FA/OTP.
|
|
* `oputil.js fb scan --quick` is now the default. Override with `--full`.
|
|
* ACS checks can now be applied to form actions. For example:
|
|
```hjson
|
|
{
|
|
value: { command: "SEC" }
|
|
action: [
|
|
{
|
|
// secure connections can go here
|
|
acs: SC
|
|
action: @menu:securityMenu
|
|
}
|
|
{
|
|
// non-secure connections
|
|
action: @menu:secureConnectionRequired
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
* `idleLogoutSeconds` and `preAuthIdleLogoutSeconds` can now be set to `0` to fully disable the idle monitor.
|
|
* Switched default archive handler for zip files from 7zip to InfoZip (`zip` and `unzip`) commands. See [UPGRADE](UPGRADE.md).
|
|
* Menu submit `action`'s can now in addition to being a simple string such as `@menu:someMenu`, or an array of objects with ACS checks, be a simple array of strings. In this case, a random match will be made. For example:
|
|
```hjson
|
|
submit: [
|
|
{
|
|
value: { command: "FOO" }
|
|
action: [
|
|
// one of the following actions will be matched:
|
|
"@menu:menuStyle1"
|
|
"@menu:menuStyle2"
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
* Added `read` (list/view) and `write` (post) ACS support to message conferences and areas.
|
|
* Many new built in modules adding support for things like auto signatures, listing "my" messages, top stats, etc. Take a look in the docs for setting them up!
|
|
* Built in MRC support!
|
|
* Added an customizable achievement system!
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 0.0.9-alpha
|
|
* Development is now against Node.js 10.x LTS. While other Node.js series may continue to work, you're own your own and YMMV!
|
|
* Fixed `justify` properties: `left` and `right` values were formerly swapped (oops!)
|
|
* Menu items can now be arrays of *objects* not just arrays of strings.
|
|
* The properties `itemFormat` and `focusItemFormat` allow you to supply the string format for items. For example if a menu object is `{ "userName" : "Bob", "age" : 35 }`, a `itemFormat` might be `|04{userName} |08- |14{age}`.
|
|
* If no `itemFormat` is supplied, the default formatter is `{text}`.
|
|
* Setting the `data` member of an object will cause form submissions to use this value instead of the selected items index.
|
|
* See the default `luciano_blocktronics` `matrix` menu for example usage.
|
|
* You can now set the `sort` property on a menu to sort items. If `true` items are sorted by `text`. If the value is a string, it represents the key in menu objects to sort by.
|
|
* Hot-reload of configuration files such as menu.hjson, config.hjson, your themes.hjson, etc.: When a file is saved, it will be hot-reloaded into the running system
|
|
* Note that any custom modules should make use of the new Config.get() method.
|
|
* The old concept of `autoScale` has been removed. See https://github.com/NuSkooler/enigma-bbs/issues/166
|
|
* Ability to delete from personal mailbox (finally!)
|
|
* Add ability to skip file and/or message areas during newscan. Set config.omitFileAreaTags and config.omitMessageAreaTags in new_scan configuration of your menu.hjson
|
|
* `{userName}` (sanitized) and `{userNameRaw}` as well as `{cwd}` have been added to param options when launching a door.
|
|
* Any module may now register for a system startup initialization via the `initializeModules(initInfo, cb)` export.
|
|
* User event log is now functional. Various events a user performs will be persisted to the `system.sqlite3` `user_event_log` table for up to 90 days. An example usage can be found in the updated `last_callers` module where events are turned into Ami/X style actions. Please see `UPGRADE.md`!
|
|
* New MCI codes including general purpose movement codes. See [MCI codes](docs/art/mci.md)
|
|
* `install.sh` will now attempt to use NPM's `--build-from-source` option when ARM is detected.
|
|
* `oputil.js config new` will now generate a much more complete configuration file with comments, examples, etc. `oputil.js config cat` dumps your current config to stdout.
|
|
* Handling of failed login attempts is now fully in. Disconnect clients, lock out accounts, ability to auto or unlock at (email-driven) password reset, etc. See `users.failedLogin` in `config.hjson`.
|
|
* NNTP support! See [NNTP docs](/docs/servers/nntp.md) for more information.
|
|
* `oputil.js user rm` and `oputil.js user info` are in! See [oputil CLI](/docs/admin/oputil.md).
|
|
* Performing a file scan/import using `oputil.js fb scan` now recognizes various `FILES.BBS` formats.
|
|
* Usernames found in the `config.users.badUserNames` are now not only disallowed from applying, but disconnected at any login attempt.
|
|
* Total minutes online is now tracked for users. Of course, it only starts after you get the update :)
|
|
* Form entries in `menu.hjson` can now be omitted from submission handlers using `omit: true`
|
|
|
|
## 0.0.8-alpha
|
|
* [Mystic BBS style](http://wiki.mysticbbs.com/doku.php?id=displaycodes) extended pipe color codes. These allow for example, to set "iCE" background colors.
|
|
* File descriptions (FILE_ID.DIZ, etc.) now support Renegade |## pipe, PCBoard, and other less common color codes found commonly in BBS era scene releases.
|
|
* New menu stack flags: `noHistory` now works as expected, and a new addition of `popParent`. See the default `menu.hjson` for usage.
|
|
* File structure changes making ENiGMA½ much easier to maintain and run in Docker. Thanks to RiPuk ([Dave Stephens](https://github.com/davestephens))! See [UPGRADE.md](UPGRADE.md) for details.
|
|
* Switch to pure JS [xxhash](https://github.com/mscdex/node-xxhash) instead of farmhash. Too many issues on ARM and other less popular CPUs with farmhash ([Dave Stephens](https://github.com/davestephens))
|
|
* Native [CombatNet](http://combatnet.us/) support! ([Dave Stephens](https://github.com/davestephens))
|
|
* Fix various issues with legacy DOS Telnet terminals. Note that some may still have issues with extensive CPR usage by ENiGMA½ that will be addressed in a future release.
|
|
* Added web (http://, https://) based download manager including batch downloads. Clickable links if using [VTXClient](https://github.com/codewar65/VTX_ClientServer)!
|
|
* General VTX hyperlink support for web links
|
|
* DEL vs Backspace key differences in FSE
|
|
* Correctly parse oddball `INTL`, `TOPT`, `FMPT`, `Via`, etc. FTN kludge lines
|
|
* NetMail support! You can now send and receive NetMail. To send a NetMail address a external user using `Name <address>` format from your personal email menu. For example, `Foo Bar <123:123/123>`. The system also detects other formats such asa `Name @ address` (`Foo Bar@123:123/123`)
|
|
* `oputil.js`: Added `mb areafix` command to quickly send AreaFix messages from the command line. You can manually send them from personal mail as well.
|
|
* `oputil.js fb rm|remove|del|delete` functionality to remove file base entries.
|
|
* `oputil.js fb desc` for setting/updating a file entry description.
|
|
* Users can now (re)set File and Message base pointers
|
|
* Add `--update` option to `oputil.js fb scan`
|
|
* Fix @watch path support for event scheduler including FTN, e.g. when looking for a `toss!.now` file produced by Binkd.
