4.0.2.4-RC1

This is the Release Candidate for the iRODS REST API, version 4.0.2.4. This is based on Jargon 4.0.2.4-RC1, and includes support for iRODS 4.1.7 as well as backwards compatability with iRODS to version 3.3.1.

Note that the deployment has changed, consult the docs folder for installation instructions. Now the REST API may be deployed as a pre-built .war file, and requires an /etc/irods-ext/irods-rest-properties file. Additional support for CORS as well as PAM authentication is in this release, as well as iRODS Consortium developed GenQuery services. Many bug fixes are also included in the REST API, as well as the underlying new Jargon Release. Significant upload/download performance improvements are also incorporated!

Bug Fixes

Features

#2 CORS header support

Add support for Cross Origin Resource Sharing through customizable configuration

Add PAM support #6

Add support for PAM authentication through customizable configuration

add temp password for user #10

New /user/userName/temppassword signatures available to obtain a temporary iRODS password, including in admin mode.

use packing i/o for stream performance #14

Added optional use of packing input and output streams for upload and download. This uses a simple read-ahead and write-behind buffer approach to optimize iRODS buffer sizes. The behavior may be controlled by adjusting the configuration property for 'utilizePackingStreams' in RestConfig.

use an etc file for production deployment #30

Added a /etc/irods-ext/irods-rest-properties file that can configure settings, as per the example in the irods-rest project. This allows deployment as a pre-packaged war and configuration and settings will be controlled by these etc properties.

Note that for testing purposes, these properties are generated locally by running mvn install, and the unit tests will refer to the test-irods-rest.properties found in src/test/resources. This also eases integration with Jenkins for CI testing purposes.

add/test PAM login support #31

Added unit test for PAM auth, added a capability to override rest api configs and prepend PAM* or STANDARD* to th euser id
in basic auth to force standard iRODS auth or PAM auth behavior.

See the docs/ section for installation and configuration instructions, as well as notes on using PAM and Standard iRODS Auth.
