CHANGELOG

6.5

Community Release Date: 02-06-2025.

Private Servers Release Date: 09-06-2025.

Added

• Products now display a graph view of data sources and targets, helping visualize the flow configuration within the product profile.

• Added property-level permissions in products to control which device properties a project member can view or edit.

• It is now possible to edit dashboards on individual devices (when inherited from a product). Editing can be restricted through new property permissions, allowing project owners to override the product dashboard while limiting access for end users.

• Introduced user properties, available under Profile > Properties. These will be further integrated into other system areas such as alarms, custom forms, and automations.

• Added support for MongoDB Transforms, offering the same functionality previously available for InfluxDB. MongoDB now provides full parity in terms of data processing capabilities.

• Initial support for using Device Buckets as data sources in dashboards. Device Buckets are defined at the product level. This avoids the need to share a root bucket when sharing devices across projects.

• Introduced Group Hierarchies: you can now create nested groups and subgroups, enabling more organized asset structures.

• Project members can now be restricted to specific groups or subgroups within a project.

• New Flow feature in the Product Profile, enabling the definition of custom sources and targets. You can now redirect data flows, for example, from a topic to an HTTP endpoint, or from a device property update to a topic. This feature deprecates the previous Endpoint, as it is much more versatile.

• Initial support for mTLS (mutual TLS) on MQTT devices. This feature is currently under testing in selected deployments and is not yet intended for production use. Contact us for early access or details.

• Dashboards now implement lazy-loading to avoid fetching data from all tabs until they are accessed. This significantly improves loading times on large dashboards.

6.3

Community Release Date: 17-06-2024.

Private Servers Release Date: 20-06-2024.

Added

Products

• 🗺️ Products now include a new functionality to configure how devices should be displayed on an Assets Maps widget, including icons, background colors, labels, and extended information when the icon is clicked. It supports conditional icons and background colors according to the latest bucket data, property values, or device status.

• 📡 Initial support for Device events as a source for Product resources (properties, buckets, endpoints), i.e., for reacting to device connection events.

• 🧩 Initial support for multiple data sources on Product properties, i.e., listening for different events/resources to update a single property.

• 🔄 Initial support for Product properties PATCH to allow partial updates.

• 📥 Initial support for property data fetch on Product property, endpoints, and buckets template payloads. For example, it can be useful for modifying incoming bucket data based on device configuration.

  

Other

• 📊 New Assets Table widget to display device information in a table, with the possibility to export data to a PDF report, CSV file, and filter and sort columns. The asset table can merge multiple pieces of information from each asset, i.e., from device state, buckets, or properties.

• 🔔 New notification icon to stay updated on the latest news in the Thinger.io ecosystem, like server updates, new library releases, etc.

• 🔒 Support for enabling legacy TLS protocols (TLS v1.0 and TLS v1.1) by reducing OpenSSL security level. This can be useful to support connectivity with old devices that don't support newer TLS versions. It can be configured under Cluster Host > Settings > SSL Certificates.

• 👥 Enable configuration for setting additional members and roles on project claims.

• 🔌 Device services configured over Products will now use a configurable range of ports. This will simplify on-premise setup and speed up service access, as there will be no need to manage firewall rules dynamically.

Improved

• 🛠️ Product profile resources now simplify the payload configuration by allowing the selection of the source event, source payload, or a template payload. It also allows defining a custom payload processing function that is easier to configure than the current {{payload:fn}} definition.

• ✅ Schema validation error messages are both in the API and server logs.

• 📉 Reduce the required buffer size for each connected device.

• 📈 Increased maximum dynamic buffer size, supporting larger message sizes.

• 🔄 Product API Resource responses can now use template placeholders, including properties or other API resources.

• 🛠️ Potential socket leak if the client did not try to perform the TLS handshake.

• 🛠️ Console permissions when a developer/admin closes an external project.

• 🛠️ Dashboard widget on community server not allowing the selection of a value.

• 🛠️ Dashboard not showing configurable time selector.

6.2.2

Community Release Date: 18-04-2024.

Private Servers Release Date: 30-04-2024.

Added

• Devices associated with a Product can now display bucket data directly from their pages, under the menu option called "Buckets". Each device can now list all the associated buckets and will filter out its data in the Data view. In future releases, we will add options for exporting, importing, and clearing data. This opens the possibility to avoid sharing raw bucket data with project members and effectively grant access only to their device data. With this feature, permissions are granted at the device level, with permissions like ViewDeviceBuckets, ReadDeviceBucket, ReadDeviceBucketTag, and ListDeviceBucketTags.

• Introduced two new specific permissions for listing and reading bucket tags:ListBucketTags: Allows listing of bucket tags.ReadBucketTag: Allows reading of individual bucket tags. Previously, these operations required a more general ReadBucketConfig permission. This change provides more granular control over permissions.

• Claims now support including additional projects in the claim process. This way, claimed resources can be added automatically to parent "global" projects that can be used to manage the resources with different profiles.

• Projects can be configured to limit bucket data access based on project devices. This functionality is useful for displaying aggregated data on the project dashboard or for restricting data access to project members. Additionally, this option can be set in the claim settings, ensuring that member projects are automatically created with this access limitation in place.

• Device Tokens are now available for MQTT and HTTP devices, as they can have regular API resources over a product.

Improved

• The templating system (used on products or endpoints) can now process placeholders with spaces.

  Copy

  {{ payload : FunctionName = 22 }}

• Internal LRU cache with a modern and safer implementation.

• Removed unused 'curl' dependency on the base image, slightly reducing image size.

Fixed

• MQTT and HTTP devices can now also define Device tokens via the GUI, as they can define API resources over Products.

• Problem when removing nested resources, i.e., Bucket exports, Project Members.

• Bucket exports should not display set projects and clone context actions.

• Bucket exports are not loading by default.

• Apex Chart Widget preview is preventing the dashboard from being saved.

• Apex Chart Widget series colors are not being updated when the widget has titles.

• Problem when updating device locations.

6.1.0

Community Release Date: 08-04-2024.

Private Servers Release Date: 15-04-2024.

Added

• Brand PWA configuration includes support for uploading app icons directly from the filesystem. It also allows the configuration of both 'maskable' and 'any' icon purposes. Fixes https://github.com/thinger-io/thinger-server/issues/84

• Brand Share Image includes support for uploading an image directly from the filesystem.

• Brand Logos are now served from the web server instead of a JSON config, which should reduce load time.

• Brand PWA "start_url" to make the console installable on Chrome.

• Products can now be configured to resend device data to a given endpoint. For example, fetch a given resource every n seconds, or take data from a topic, and resend it to another service.

• Products can now configure bucket tags to be used on the automatic initialization. Fixes https://github.com/thinger-io/thinger-server/issues/81

• Products can now handle Resource Streams, i.e., to create custom profiles for HTTP devices.

• The endpoint call event now provides context about the caller.

Improved

• Add a resource cache for better performance on massive endpoint calls and bucket writes.

• HTTP devices have been migrated to a new connection schema where it is possible to log their statistics, like bytes sent, received, and connections, as any other MQTT or IOTMP device.

• HTTP devices can now be used inside dashboards with resources defined at the product level.

• Device property selector for HTML widgets allows selecting any parent node (with nested values), or all property values by not selecting any field. Fixes https://github.com/thinger-io/thinger-server/issues/16

• Property PATCH now supports regular JSON for partial property updates. Fixes https://github.com/thinger-io/thinger-server/issues/16

• Brand icons and logos are now served from the filesystem instead of a data URL, improving page load.

• Dashboard HTML widgets from external storage no longer require public storage access. In the case of members of a project, they will require read access to the storage.

• Product properties, topics, resources, and functions can be generated now by calling a product function.

• Product bucket writes can now override tag values based on the write payload. Previously, tags like device were always being set by the product, discarding any "device" field present on the payload.

• Compatibility with OpenSSL 3.0 on SSL certificate provisioning.

• IP Geocoding automatic updates.

Fixed

• Apex Charts widget colors do not honor time series color configuration.

• Binary data on a product payload is not processed correctly.

• Visual Studio Code is not opening the file storage correctly.

• Products with just "run" resources were not displayed on the API explorer.

• Product profile list for buckets, endpoints, auto provision, and api resources were always displaying "Property" instead of the resource type.

• The info page displays on empty or restricted resources.

• Statistics on socket count.

6.0.0

Release Date: 11-03-2024

Added

• Property Forms 📝 : Allow creating custom forms for improving the user experience when setting values inside a property, i.e., when configuring a device. The form can be defined at a Product level, and it is currently supported by Formly.

• Property Location 📍: Location properties now display a map for picking the address directly from the map or via a search bar for using an address. Once an address is selected, it automatically fills in the coordinates and timezone.

• Dashboard Functions ⚡: Dashboard now supports creating custom functions for processing any data used in the dashboard, i.e., for changing units, cropping decimals, or filtering values. Conversion functions can be selected in the data source configuration.

• Dashboard Placeholders 🏷: Dashboard now supports settings placeholders from a fixed value or a device property. Placeholders can be used in any string field on the dashboard, i.e., titles, units, or even inside functions to change the behaviour of the function depending on the current device configuration.

• Dashboard Property Button 🆕 : New "Property Button" widget for opening device properties for modification, even if they have a Property Form defined.

• Dashboard Group Widget (BETA) 🔠 : New Group Widget that brings the possibility to add any number of widgets inside a parent widget.

• Dashboard Property Table (BETA) 🔠 : Introducing a new widget that enables quick editing of properties for a device or a set of devices. This widget includes various built-in controls such as text display, input text, input number, slider, color selection, switch, a save button, and an edit button. These elements can be configured in each column to patch a single property value.

• Claiming Feature☝️: The Claiming Feature is a versatile and user-friendly tool designed for administrators to configure and expose a selected number of resources, such as devices, for end-user claiming. This feature enables administrators to set up various resources that end-users can subsequently request effortlessly. Upon a successful request, these resources, like specific devices, are automatically integrated into the end-users' accounts. This streamlined process not only enhances user experience by simplifying resource acquisition but also provides administrators with efficient control over resource distribution and management.

One of the key strengths of this feature is its flexibility in claiming methods: users can initiate a claim through a directly generated URL, by scanning a QR Code, or by using a specific Claim Code:

The second phase shows:

Once the claim is completed, the process may request the configuration of the devices, i.e., via the Property Forms defined on the product.

• Configurable Brand Accounts👨‍💼: We've introduced a new "Accounts" section for each brand. This enhancement allows more control over brand-specific behaviors, including:

  • Cross Sign-In Control: Determine whether users registered with one brand can log in to another, thereby enhancing security and user management.

  • Public Sign-Up Options: Choose whether to allow public sign-up for each brand, providing flexibility in user onboarding.

  • Automated Role Assignment: Set specific account roles for users who register through public sign-up, such as automatically assigning 'member' status for device claiming purposes.

  This update offers more customization to better align with the brand's unique operational needs.

• Configurable Brand Scripts 🖥️: An update has been released that allows for the configuration of custom scripts for a brand's index.html. This enhancement facilitates the integration of tools such as Google Tag Manager and the monitoring of customer traffic.

• New Permissions 🔒: Console is introducing an array of specific new permissions, enhancing the granularity with which administrators can control member access and actions within the console. This update distinctly separates permissions for actions performed through the API from those executed directly on the console interface. In the current version, all existing permissions will continue to function as before. However, future updates will require the explicit assignment of 'View' permissions to maintain the access level. This change lays the groundwork for more precise and customizable user role management, ensuring enhanced security and efficiency in operation. At this moment, they are partially released for Devices, but will be covering the whole console in future updates.

• Updated Editors 👩‍💻: Now, editors are based on Monaco (the editor from Visual Studio Code) with support to maximize the editor and copy the contents:

• New Icon Picker 🦄 : There is a new icon picker with a much greater variety of icons and improved search capabilities.

[4.6.1] 2022-10-13

Discussion Topic: Thinger.io Community Forum

Added

• Experimental IOTMP Proxies (TCP/HTTP) for connecting with device local network resources, i.e., devices/routers webpages, terminals, RDP, VNC, etc. These proxies require a new IOTMP client library for Linux.

  

  Example of the IOTMP Linux Client working on a RevPi, providing access to device configuration over the local web page:

  
• Support for defining Web Services inside Products section. It allows defining web pages that can be accessed over an IOTMP linux client.

  
• Ability to create project members directly from the "Add Member" section, creating the user automatically by providing only the email address.

  
• Each project can now define a set of Project Roles that can be used by any member within a project.

  
• Each developer/admin account can now define a set of Global Roles that can be used by any member within any project. For example, a general-purpose read role that can be shared in all projects.

  
• Project member permissions can now be established by roles in addition to custom member permissions, simplifying permissions management. All global roles, project roles, and custom permissions can be established together (if required).

  

Improved

• Members will go to the first allowed section after login or refresh, instead of the default Project Dashboard, i.e., devices or dashboards, if they do not have access to read the project dashboard.

• Device resource streams now include different signals: start, stop, data, and error (on IOTMP devices), in order to keep track of streams.

• Device Terminal now supports multiple concurrent sessions (with the IOTMP linux client).

  
• The server can now use wildcard certificates, stored as *.mydomain.com in the certificates folder. Provisioning wildcard certificates over the 'Domains' section is not possible.

• Internal socket server can now filter socket connections based on IP address. Used at this moment internally for proxies' security.

Fixed

• Very high loads over websockets could cause a crash under some circumstances.

• Automatic transition to newly created resources when they are nested more than 2 levels (i.e., while creating a new project member).

• Potential crash with multi-thread product initialization at startup.

• Switching between projects or opening/closing projects is forbidden under some circumstances.

• Set projects displayed on proxies (proxies do not support projects).

• Missing selectors when configuring specific token permissions, i.e., over a proxy.

• Access Tokens are now limited to the project scope where they are defined.

• Payload not being sent on IOTMP devices.
