Upgrade requirements

  • #69 If you are running Layman with development or test settings, set LAYMAN_SETTINGS_MODULE in your .env file to layman_settings. No action is required if you are running Layman based on demo settings (probably all production instances).

Changes

  • #74 Layman user and role at GeoServer defined by LAYMAN_GS_USER and LAYMAN_GS_ROLE are now created automatically on Layman's startup if an only if new environment variable GEOSERVER_ADMIN_PASSWORD is provided. There is no need to set GEOSERVER_ADMIN_PASSWORD for other reason than automatically creating Layman user and Layman role.
    • No change is required. If you are migrating existing instance, Layman user and role are already created, so you don't need to set GEOSERVER_ADMIN_PASSWORD. If this is your first Layman release, GEOSERVER_ADMIN_PASSWORD is set in .env files starting with this version, so Layman user and role at GeoServer will be automatically created on startup.
    • No need to run command make geoserver-reset-default-datadir from now on. This command was removed from make options.
  • #62 GeoServer Proxy Base URL is now automatically set on Layman's startup according to LAYMAN_GS_PROXY_BASE_URL. If you do not set the variable, value is calculated as LAYMAN_CLIENT_PUBLIC_URL+LAYMAN_GS_PATH. If you set it to empty string, no change of Proxy Base URL will be done on GeoServer side.
  • #83 All layers are created as GEOMETRY type, so any other type can be added (for example polygons can be added to points).
  • #73 Layman users are automatically created on GeoServer (either at start up of Layman or when reserved) with separate role and workspace. Username is the same as in Layman, name of role is "USER_"+username, name of workspace is the same as username. Read and write permissions for workspace are set according to Layman's authorization (as of now read-everyone-write-everyone or read-everyone-write-owner).
  • New environment variables LAYMAN_GS_USER_GROUP_SERVICE and LAYMAN_GS_ROLE_SERVICE enable to control which user/group and role services are used at GeoServer. Not setting these variables means to use default services.
  • #69 Three separate identical settings files (layman_settings_demo.py, layman_settings_dev.py, layman_settings_test.py) were merged into one file layman_settings.py.
  • If username used in REST API request path is not yet reserved, HTTP requests other than POST returns (e.g. GET) HTTP error 404 (Layman code 40). Previously in case of GET request, empty list was returned.
  • List of GeoServer reserved workspace names was moved from layman_settings.py into source code (src/layman/common/geoserver/__init__.py)
  • Undocumented authentication module layman.authn.url_path.py that was unused for a long time, was removed.
  • Python setting PG_NON_USER_SCHEMAS is now more explicit about forbidden schema names.
