aws Cookbook CHANGELOG

This file is used to list changes made in each version of the aws cookbook.

6.1.1 (2017-06-05)

• Resolve frozen string warning on Chef 13 in the s3_file rsource
• Resolve useless assignment cookstyle warning in the EC2 library
• Make the ELB deletion messaging consistent with the create messaging

6.1.0 (2017-05-01)

• Converted aws_cloudwath and aws_elb to custom resources with code cleanup
• Add create/delete actions to the aws_elb resource. This resource is currently not able to update the state of the ELB and does not setup health checks. It's mostly used to allow us to test the existing attach/detach actions, but it will be expanded in the future to allow for full ELB management
• Cleanup of the EC2 helper and removal of a few unnecessary helpers

6.0.0 (2017-04-27)

• Resolve deprecation warning in the chefspecs
• Remove the EBS Raid resource, which did not work on modern EC2 instance types and only worked on select Linux systems. We highly recommend users utilize provisioned IOPS on EBS volumes as they offer far greater reliability. If that's not an option you may want to pin to the 5.X release of this cookbook.
• Remove the ec2_hints recipe as newer Chef releases auto detect EC2 and don't require hints to be applied
• Use Chef’s gem install in the metadata to handle gem installation. This increases the minimum required Chef release to 12.9
• Convert instance_monitoring to a custom resource with improved logging and converge notification
• Consider pending to be enabled as well within instance_monitoring to avoid enabling again

5.0.1 (2017-04-18)

• Fix for Issue #283 (error on aws_resource_tag): Updated deprecated Chef::Resource call with valid Chef::ResourceResolver drop-in

5.0.0 (2017-04-11)

• Calculate the presigned url after the md5 check as it may timeout when the existing file is very large
• Update testing for Chef 13 and use local delivery
• Update apache2 license string
• Require the latest ohai cookbook which fixes Chef 13 compatibility. With this change this cookbook now requires Chef 12.6 or later

4.2.2 (2017-02-24)

• Let the API decide what the default volume type is for EBS volumes. This doesn't actually change anything at the moment, but keeps us up to date with the defaults of the aws-sdk

4.2.1 (2017-02-24)

• Tweaks to the readme for clarity
• Remove Ubuntu 12.04 and openSUSE 13.2 from Test Kitchen matrix as these are both on the way to EOL
• Remove the sensitive, retries, and retry_delay from the s3_file resource for Chef 13 compatibility since chef itself defines these

4.2.0 (2017-01-21)

• README: Add ec2:ModifyInstanceAttribute to sample IAM policy (fixes #241)
• Added a new resource for managing CloudWatch alarms

4.0.0 (2016-09-15)

• Testing updates
• Require Chef 12.1 or later
• Use node.normal instead of node.set to avoid deprecation notices
• Warn in the logs if the default recipe is included
• Remove the ohai reload on every run in the hint recipe
• Remove chef 11 compat in the metadata

3.4.1 (2016-08-09)

v3.3.3 (2016-05-10)

• Add support for new ebs volume types: sc1 st1

v3.3.2 (2016-04-13)

• Resolved no method error when using the elb resource

v3.3.1 (2016-03-25)

• Only install the aws-sdk gem at compile_time if chef-client supports that

v3.3.0 (2016-03-25)

• The AWS gem is now automatically installed as needed by the providers
• Added ChefSpec matchers for: cloudformation_stack, dynamodb_table, elastic_lb, iam_*, kinetic_stream, scondary_ip.

v3.2.0 (2016-03-23)

• Add the :delete action to the ebs_volume provider

v3.1.0 (2016-03-22)

• Added the sensitive attribute to the s3_file provider
• s3_file provider now compares md5sums of local files against those in S3 to determine if the file should be downloaded during the chef-client run
• s3_file provider now properly handles region by defaulting to us-east-1 unless a region is provided in the resource
• An inspec test suite has been added for the s3_file provider
• s3 connection objects are no longer stored in a per-region hash as this is longer necessary with the changes to how connection objects are stored
• The region method in the S3 module has been removed as it wasn't being used after region handling refactoring in the 3.0 release

v3.0.0 (2016-03-20)

Breaking changes:

• Removed the ability to use databags for credentials with the ebs_raid provider. You must now pass the credentials in via the resource, @tas50
• #218 Remove support for Chef < 11.6.0, @tas50
• Switched to Ohai to gather information on the AWS instance instead of direct AWS metadata calls. This also removes the node['region'] attribute, which is no longer necessary. If you would like to mock the region for some reason in local testing set node['ec2']['placement_availability_zone'] to the AZ, as this is used to determine the region, @tas50
• aws-sdk gem is no longer loaded in default recipe

Other Changes

• #172 Several new features (AWS CloudFormation Support, IAM Support, Kinesis, DynamoDB, and local auth options) @vancluever
• Changes the AWS connect to not be shared accross resources. This allows each resource to run against a different region or use different credentials, @tas50

• Fixed nil default value deprecation warnings in the providers, @tas50
• Fixed errors in the ebs_raid provider, @tas50
