Changes with Gentics Content.Node 5.21.0

Date: 11.09.2015


Optional Manual Change

This change only applies when not using the packaged JAVA (/Node/java doesn‘t exist). The java.sh script has been updated in order to allow using own JAVA installations.

AFTER updating, the java.sh file has to be replaced:

  • sudo -u node chmod u+w /Node/bin/java.sh
  • sudo -u node cp /Node/.node/CHANGELOG/scripts/content/java.sh /Node/bin/java.sh
  • sudo -u node chmod ugo+x /Node/bin/java.sh

Additional search filters in the following folder Rest API methods now allow to search for items which were created, edited or published before a certain timestamp.

  • /folder/getFolders
  • /folder/getPages
  • /folder/getFiles
  • /folder/getImages
  • /folder/getTemplates

The following new POST methods can be used to load multiple objects with a single request:

  • /folder/load
  • /page/load
  • /file/load
  • /image/load

Any objects that are not found, or for which the user does not have the necessary permissions, are ignored and will not be part of the resulting list.

The publish process now prints the number of successfully published folders, pages and files after completion. This information will be output in the scheduler.

The new setting $NO_MAX_FILESIZE allows to disable the file upload limit for specific groups. See the Gentics Content.Node Guides for details.


Enhancement 🔗 Link

The REST API has been extended, to allow saving and creating nodes:

  • /node/create/ for creating a new node
  • /node/save/{id} for saving changes to a node

Enhancement 🔗 Link

A new flag “disinherit default“ has been added for all disinheritable objects. When creating a new channel, all objects with this flag will be automatically disinherited. It can be set in the “inheritance” dialog.
