Summary of changes between 2.1.x and 2.3.x are listed below. For a more readable version please see the following URLs: http://docs.couchdb.org/en/latest/whatsnew/2.3.html http://docs.couchdb.org/en/latest/whatsnew/2.2.html http://docs.couchdb.org/en/latest/whatsnew/2.1.html 2.3.x Branch Upgrade Notes #1602: To improve security, there have been major changes in the configuration of query servers, SSL support, and HTTP global handlers: Query servers are NO LONGER DEFINED in the .ini files, and can no longer be altered at run-time. The JavaScript and CoffeeScript query servers continue to be enabled by default. Setup differences have been moved from default.ini to the couchdb and couchdb.cmd start scripts respectively. Additional query servers can now be configured using environment variables: export COUCHDB_QUERY_SERVER_PYTHON="/path/to/python/query/server.py with args" couchdb where the last segment in the environment variable (_PYTHON) matches the usual lowercase(!) query language in the design doc language field (here, python.) Multiple query servers can be configured by using more environment variables. You can also override the default servers if you need to set command- line options (such as couchjs stack size): export COUCHDB_QUERY_SERVER_JAVASCRIPT="/path/to/couchjs /path/to/main.js -S <STACKSIZE>" couchdb The mango query server continues to be enabled by default. The Erlang query server continues to be disabled by default. This change adds a [native_query_servers] enable_erlang_query_server = BOOL setting (defaults to false) to enable the Erlang query server. If the legacy configuration for enabling the query server is detected, that is counted as a true setting as well, so existing configurations continue to work just fine. SSL Support Enabling SSL support in the ini file is now easier: [ssl] enable = true If the legacy httpsd configuration is found in your ini file, this will still enable SSL support, so existing configurations do not need to be changed. HTTP global handlers These are no longer defined in the default.ini file, but have been moved to the couch.app context. If you need to customize your handlers, you can modify the app context using a couchdb.config file as usual. #1602: Also to improve security, the deprecated os_daemons and couch_httpd_proxy functionality has been completely removed ahead of the planned CouchDB 3.0 release. We recommend the use of OS-level daemons such as runit, sysvinit, systemd, upstart, etc. to launch and maintain OS daemons instead, and the use of a reverse proxy server in front of CouchDB (such as haproxy) to proxy access to other services or domains alongside CouchDB. #1543: The node-local (default port 5986) /_restart endpoint has been replaced by the clustered (default port 5984) endpoint /_node/$node/_restart and /_node/_local/_restart endpoints. The node-local endpoint has been removed. #1764: All python scripts shipped with CouchDB, including couchup and the dev/run development cluster script, now specify and require Python 3.x. #1396: CouchDB is now compatible with Erlang 21.x. #1680: The embedded version of rebar used to build CouchDB has been updated to the last version of rebar2 available. This assists in building on non-x86 platforms. #1857: Refuse building with known bad versions of Erlang. 2.2.x Branch Upgrade Notes The minimum supported version of Erlang is now 17, not R16B03. Support for Erlang 21 is still ongoing and will be provided in a future release. The CouchDB replication client can now use the /_session endpoint when authenticating against remote CouchDB instances, improving performance since re-authorization does not have to be performed with every request. Because of this performance improvement, it is recommended to increase the PBKDF2 work factor beyond the default 10 to a modern default such as 10000. This is done via the local ini file setting [couch_httpd_auth] iterations = 10000. Do not do this if an older version of CouchDB is replicating TO this instance or cluster regularly, since CouchDB < 2.2.0 must perform authentication on every request and replication performance will suffer. A future version will make this increased number of iterations a default. #820, #1032: Multiple queries can now be made at the POST /{db}/_all_docs/queries, POST /{db}/_design_docs/queries and POST /{db}/_local_docs/queries endpoints. Also, a new endpoint POST /{db}/_design/{ddoc}/_view/{view}/queries has been introduced to replace the ?queries parameter formerly provided for making multiple queries to a view. The old ?queries parameter is now deprecated and will be removed in a future release of CouchDB. The maximum http request limit, which had been lowered in 2.1.0, has been re-raised to a 4GB limit for now. (#1446). Ongoing discussion about the path forward for future releases is available in #1200 and #1253. #1118: The least recently used (LRU) cache of databases is now only updated on database write, not read. This has lead to significant performance enhancements on very busy clusters. To restore the previous behaviour, your local ini file can contain the block [couchdb] update_lru_on_read = true. #1153: The CouchDB replicator can now make use of the /_session endpoint rather than relying entirely on HTTP basic authentication headers. This can greatly improve replication performance. We encourage you to upgrade any nodes or clusters that regularly act as replication clients to use this new feature, which is enabled by default (#1462). #1283: The [couchdb] enable_database_recovery feature, which only soft-deletes databases in response to a DELETE /{db} call, is now documented in default.ini. #1330: CouchDB externals and OS daemons are now officially deprecated and no longer documented. Support for these features will be completely removed in a future release of CouchDB (probably 3.0.0). #1436: CouchDB proxy authentication now uses a proper chttpd_auth module, simplifying configuration in local ini files. While this is not a backward- compatible breaking change, it is best to update your local ini files to reference the new {chttpd_auth, proxy_authentication_handler} handler rather than the couch_httpd_auth version, as couch_httpd is in the process of being deprecated completely. #1476, #1477: The obsolete update_notification feature, which was replaced by /{db}/_changes feeds c. CouchDB 1.2, has been completely removed. This feature never worked in 2.0 for databases, only for shards, making it effectively useless.
