SORMAS Release Candidate 1.70.0

⚠️ Release Information

The changes in 1.70 related to the deletion concept are not final and should not be used in international instances. This means that the configurations in the deletionconfiguration table should not be activated until the concept has been finalized.

Update Instructions

With this update, the configuration after how many days cases and events are automatically archived have been moved out of the properties file and into the database. If you have previously changed this value to something else but the default 90 days, please make sure to update the AUTOMATIC_ARCHIVING entry of the respective entity type in the featureconfiguration table that will automatically be created during the server update once the update has been completed.

New Feature Configurations

• Added DELETE_PERMANENT: Enables/disables the permanent deletion of core entities (case / contact / event / event part. / immunization / travel entry).
• Added AUTOMATIC_ARCHIVING: Enables/disables the automatic archiving of core entities. There is one of these feature types per core entity.
• Added EDIT_ARCHIVED_ENTITIES: Allows users with the respective rights to edit archived core entities.

New Server Properties

• Added audit.logger.config: Config file path of the audit logger.
• Added audit.logger.site: Identifies the SORMAS instance in the audit log.
• Added sormas2sormas.districtExternalId: External ID of the district to which the cases/contacts are assigned when accepting a share request.
• Removed daysAfterCaseGetsArchived and daysAfterEventGetsArchived and moved the connected logic to the feature configurations.
