🎉 Octyne 1.2 introduces a brand new Unix socket API which makes the new octynectl CLI tool for managing Octyne possible! It also:

  • adds comments to the configuration file;
  • marks servers for deletion when removed from config (instead of simply killing them);
  • tracks users.json so users that are deleted can no longer use Octyne's API;
  • overhauls the compression API with tar.gz/xz/bz2 support, ability to set basePath and async compression (so no more HTTP timeouts when compressing lots of files!);
  • The API documentation is also fully complete now, along with advice on reverse proxying and security measures to take! Errors are still not fully documented, though, but this is something that can be safely put on the backburner.

v1.2 also ships some bug fixes (e.g. better handling of when gracefully stopped, concurrent safety bugs fixed) which make it highly recommended to upgrade.

Minor Changes

  • Implement Unix socket API for local actions: #14

x86_64 and 64-bit ARMv8 binaries can be downloaded below for Windows, macOS and Linux (built on Ubuntu 20.04), as well as a 32-bit ARMv6 Linux build. Octyne can also be compiled for other architectures like s390x, PowerPC and i386, and other Unix-like OSes supported by Golang (untested, but if you run into issues, let me know!).
