germinate-vue - v4.9.0

CHG Germplasm display name: Germinate will now prefer the 'display name' over the internal unique identifier when exporting or visualizing data. The 'display name' is set during import using the 'ACCENAME' field in the MCPD. If none is specified Germinate will automatically use 'ACCENUMB' as the display name.
CHG Improved data import feedback: Where appropriate, import status errors can now occur multiple times. Prevously each error type was only shown a single time to prevent huge lists of errors when thousands of issues are found in the input file. Now some error types - those we don't expect to see in huge numbers - can be reported back multiple times.
CHG New command-line interface: Germinate now offers a complete command-line interface (CLI). Currently, this supports data import via the Germinate Data Templates. Please refer to the CLI documentation for more information.
CHG QBMS support: Germinate now supports QBMS (starting with QBMS v2.0.0), an R package used to interact with BrAPI data providers. Find out more on the QBMS Germinate page.
CHG Big dependency update: Updated lots of dependencies behind the scenes.

germinate-vue - v4.8.0

NEW Project support: Germinate now supports projects. These introduce another level of data grouping above experiments. When projects are selected via the web interface, Germinate will only show data related to the selected projects.
NEW Radar, bubble and heatmap charts: For categorical trait data, we've added radar, bubble and heatmap charts to visualize the data for a selection of germplasm entries against a subset of the traits.
NEW Institution datasets information: The data statistics page now contains a table that breaks lists the number of datasets per data type for each institution to show their contribution to the overall database.
NEW WYSIWYG editor: Added a 'what you see is what you get' (WYSIWYG) editor to the home and about page so that administrators can edit the page content through the web interface.
NEW Trait enhancements: Added trait reference image functionality as well as information about trait set size (how many measurements per subject) and timeseries flag to traits.
CHG Dependency update: Updated to Java 21 LTS, Node 22 LTS and Gradle 8.8.
FIX Various bugfixes: Fixed various issues across the board but including data import, dataset editing and trait data export.

NEW Data stories: Data stories are a convenient way to showcase some of the data in your Germinate database and make it easy to follow pre-defined steps highlighting specifics of your data.
NEW Interface selection persistency: To make it easier to share the view you're currently seeing including selections, we have added more selection parameters to the URL. This also helps with the data stories.
NEW Hidden page auto-discovery: Germinate can now automatically discover which interface pages should be hidden based on the data you currently have in your database. As an example, if you don't have genotypic data, the maps, markers and genotypic export pages will automatically be hidden until you upload genotypic data.
NEW Theme-based map tiles: As the new default, we have added theme-based map tiles to Germinate to make any data overlays pop even more.
NEW Trials data coloring: Trials data scatter plots can now be colored by location, so for multi-site trials, you can highlight each location individually.
FIX Map positions: There was a bug affecting the display of genotypic marker positions in the map details table. This has been fixed.

Tomcat 10's support has ended and Tomcat 10.1 is not the current version.

This is mainly an update to make Germinate compatible with Tomcat 10.1.

Small changes included in this update: - CHG: Less strict checks on trials data import for trait matching. - ADD: Added the option to upload/delete carousel images. - FIX: Small bugfixes and improvements.

germinate-vue - v4.5.0

NEW Changelog: From this version on, Germinate will include a changelog for each version highlighting the major new features and changes of each release. This changelog is available on the 'About Germinate' page as well as by clicking on the version number in the Germinate footer.
NEW Trials time series data: We have added a new section to the trials page focusing on trials data in a temporal context where the development of each germplasm and trait is visualized through the trial.
NEW Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imagery support: Germinate now supports storing the imagery captured by UAVs throughout a trial alongside the measured data. The images will be visualized on a map and can be flicked through based on the time of recording.
NEW Shapefile support: In tandem with the UAV imagery support, we have added support for uploading the trial layout in form of Shapefiles. These will be shown on top of any UAV imagery and colour-coded based on the measured trials data values.
NEW User feedback: We have added a way for your users to provide feedback to you on Germinate and the data within it. If enabled, the users can select a snapshot of their screen and provide additional information as well as a feedback type like 'bug', 'data error' or 'question'. This feedback can be reviewed and acted upon by the database owners.
CHG Boxplot charts: Previously, Germinate pre-calculated any boxplot data on the server before displaying the result in the browser. This has now changed so that Germinate will display the individual data points alongside the boxplots which allows selection and item marking in those visualizations.
NEW Boxplot grouping: In addition to the changed boxplot charts, they can now be grouped by 'dataset', 'treatment' and 'group' to further enrich the visualization.
NEW Data update widget: Whenever data is uploaded, a new item will now be created on the front page highlighting that new data is available. This will make it much more obvious to users that new data is available or data has changed.
NEW Dataset changes/edits: After data has been uploaded to Germinate it is assigned to a dataset. While the meta-data of dataset could be edited previously, it wasn't possible to delete datasets completely or re-assign them to different experiments. We have now added this functionality. Additionally, new (empty) datasets can now be created through the Germinate interface which makes importing data from GridScore easier.
NEW Germinate setup wizard: A new Germinate setup wizard has been added to simplify the initial setup of Germinate.
CHG Compounds merge with traits: Because of their large overlap in the way they are stored, chemical compounds have been merged in with traits and chemical compound data is now available as trait data.
FIX BrAPI endpoint bug: Fixed a bug where the BrAPI endpoint for observation variables might fail depending on the trait restrictions.
