New in JSPWiki 2.11.0 - Yet to Be Released#

  • Added AWS Kendra as a Search Provider, contributed by Julien Masnada, thanks!
  • breaking change: New logging facadeContent unavailable! (broken link)https://jspwiki-wiki.apache.org/images/out.png, Log4J2 (2.14.1), supersedes existing Log4J one
    • Although all Log4J (and SLF4J) calls are transparently routed to Log4J2, the log configuration inside jspwiki.properties has changed, so installations with customized logging configuration will need to be set up again.
    • Existing 3rd party plugins, filters and providers will continue to work as expected, as Log4J calls will be routed to Log4J2, but the use of Log4J2 should be preferred onwards.
    • By default, JSPWiki will configure Log4J2 from the jspwiki[-custom].properties files, expecting log configuration to be there using Log4J2 properties syntaxContent unavailable! (broken link)https://jspwiki-wiki.apache.org/images/out.png
    • jspwiki.use.external.logconfig=true can still be used on jspwiki[-custom].properties files to bypass JSPWiki log re-configuration and rely directly on Log4J2 configuration mechanisms
    • IMPORTANT: if you're using a JSPWiki customized .war, please ensure that neither Log4J nor any SLF4J implementation end up in your customized .war.
  • JSPWIKI-1143Content unavailable! (broken link)https://jspwiki-wiki.apache.org/images/out.png - SpamFilter now accepts the jspwiki.filters.spamfilter.allowedgroups property as a comma separated list of groups that will bypass the filter.
  • JSPWiki now takes the following properties sources:
    1. Default JSPWiki properties
    2. System environment
    3. JSPWiki custom property files
    4. JSPWiki cascading properties
    5. System properties
    • With the later ones taking precedence over the previous ones. To avoid leaking system information, only System environment and properties beginning with jspwiki (case unsensitive) are taken into account.
    • Also, to ease docker integration, System env properties containing _ are turned into .. F.ex., ENV jspwiki_fileSystemProvider_pageDir would be loaded as jspwiki.fileSystemProvider.pageDir.
