0.12.0

New release with a substantial amount of changes, from upd support, to flavors with clone, from custom resolv.conf to improved tuning of the network setup.

Here the detailed list of all changes:

Added

• pot.conf: add parameter to control max hostname length inside the pot (#118)
• CI: add shellcheck as hard requirements in the PR flow
• export-ports: add UDP support, as -e udp:53:53 (#115)
• create: dns custom allows to statically provide a resolv.conf
• POT_EXTIF_ADDR: new parameter to force which IP of EXTIF should be used for NAT and RDR
• clone: add support for applying flavors to cloned pots
• clone: add -k flag to keep the cloned pot for debug when the process failed
• info: -s to list available snapshots of a pot
• clone: -s flag to explicitly choose the snapshot to clone
• architecture: remove limitation of amd64 as the only architecture supported (#143 by jmg@)
• start/stop/term/run: add support to -p potname on those commands, the only one not supporting it

Changed

• hostname: max default length for hostname set to 64 (#118)
• create: adopt the new hostname length parameter (#118)
• clone: adopt the new hostname length parameter (#118)
• ext-if: do not include interface aliases in the bridges network if EXTIF has them (#120)
• start: add support for custom dns resolver
• init: create backup of rc.conf and pf.conf before to apply pot related changes
• info: -B instead of -b for private bridge information
• copy-in: copy is executed in the jail environment, to avoid soft-link related issues in the destination path
• copy-in: with running pots, a -F flag is needed to force the copy, an operation that is discouraged for security reasons
• fetch base.txz: the base FreeBSD tarball used to be temporarily stored in /tmp. While a POT_CACHE folder is available, use that instead.

Removed

• create-dns: remove this already deprecated command, leaving the user to create a dns for the public bridge

Fixed

• zsh: fix autocompletion for set-hook (#139 by urosgruber)

0.11.0

New major release

Breaking changes:

• syslogd forwarding is now disabled for new created pot
• the previously deprecated options and flags have been removed
• network stack concept added (here the documentation)
• rework of network type alias to allow complex network setup (here the documentation)

Added

• create-base: automatically call freebsd-update when a base is created (#83)
• attribute early-start-at-boot: for pot needed to start early at boot (REQUIRE: NETWORKING syslogd pf)
• create: add a -k flag to keep the pot, even if it's creation process failed
• network stack: add network stack as framework concept (ipv4, ipv6 or dual)
• CI: import the run.sh script, with regression system tests
• alias: the new notation -i can be repeated to assign multiple IPs to different NICs
• hooks: added variables to provide the full new alias network configuration

Changed

• osrelease: detect it from freebsd-version, deprecating the osrelease field in pot.conf (#83)
• start-at-boot: the pot rc.d service will be executed late, with jail
• create: if create fails, the partially created pot is automatically destroyed
• create: -P will use send/receive from a snapshot, to cut the dependency with the snapshot
• create-multi: usr.local and custom dataset are send/received instead of cloned
• inherit: it inherits the stack configured in pot.conf
• alias: extend -i option to accept netif|ipaddr
• alias: -i option can be repeated more than once to add more ip addresses to the same instance
• syslogd: initial removal of syslogd forwarding

Removed

• alias: remove option -I, in favour of a more flexible and powerful -i
• export: remove option -s, to select a specific snapshot (already deprecated)
• snapshot: remove option -n, to specify a snapshot name (already deprecated)
• snapshot: remove flag -a, to snapshot external ZFS datasets (already deprecated)
• revert: remove flag -a, to restore external ZFS datasets (already deprecated)

Fixed

• mount-in: compute the realpath of the mount-point
• create: use pipefail only where implemented
• ipv6: rtsold doesn't start in a jail on 11.3

0.10.4

Added

• alias: add ability to use a different network interface for alias network type (#80)
• env: add pot info -E output to environment or tinirc
• log: add the ability to log activites in syslog (local2 facility by default)

Fixed

• prepare: fix multiple export port support
• rc script: extend PATH to make potnet accessible
• etc/hosts: add full hostname to localhost
