renku - 2.7.0

Renku 2.7.0 introduces some new features and bug fixes.

User-Facing Changes

🌟 New Features

Sessions: add a new frontend for session environments built from code, ttyd , which is a minimalist web-terminal

✨ Improvements

Integrations: add support for GitHub Enterprise Server
UI: add the option to change a project’s slug in the settings page

🐞 Bug Fixes

UI: fix the broken links from Renku Legacy search page
Sessions: move the git proxy port into the reserved range for sessions, allowing users to pick port 8080
Sessions: fix an issue where admins could not create or update global session environments

Notes for Renku Administrators

The git-proxy sidecar container in sessions has been updated to have ports configured inside the reserved range for session services (range 65400-65535). Previously, the ports 8080 and 8081 were used which would break sessions configured with either port (custom session environments). These ports can be configured via the helm chart with the 2 fields:

notebooks.gitHttpsProxy.port to set the git-proxy port
notebooks.gitHttpsProxy.healthPort to set the git-proxy health check port

However their defaults in the helm chart are correct and in the desired reserved range. So changing these default values is not necessary.

User-Facing Changes

🌟 New Features

UI: Allow adding keywords to data connectors.

Internal Changes

Notes for Renku Administrators

This version will remove 2 deprecated and unused deployments that were used to support the search functionality. The search has now been absorbed by the data services component. The search field of the Helm chart values file (if you have it set) can be removed and it will be ignored in this and future releases.

Several sections from the Helm chart values file are deleted or modified, these are:

search is removed, now the search and search provisioning is part of the data services and data tasks and are not separate services. This will result in 2 fewer deployments in your cluster. If the values are left in the values file they will be ignored. Therefore this does not require immediate action by administrators, it is just good practice to remove deprecated sections that you may have in your values file.
ui.client.podSecurityContext is removed and replaced by podSecurityContext
ui.client.securityContext is removed and replaced by securityContext
ui.server.podSecurityContext is removed and replaced by podSecurityContext
ui.server.securityContext is removed and replaced by securityContext
securityContext has been modified to include "drop all capabilities" in its default value

There are also several other components that were using hardcoded security contexts that now are using the centralized securityContext and podSecurityContext from the values file. These are:

Helm tests
setup job for the authorization database
setup job for for the Keycloak database in Postgres
setup job for the Keycloak realms
setup job for the platform initiliazation
setup job for the Renku database initialization in Postgres
self-signed CA certificates initialization container
Keycloak initialization container that injects self signed CA certificates is now using the centralized security context instead of a custom one

Internal Changes

Improvements

UI: upgrade react-router to framework mode

Notes for Renku Administrators

Specific note ONLY for renkulab.io administrators:

This release should include a custom Keycloak theme that will display the terms of service and privacy policy at the top of the login and registration pages in Keycloak. In order to add this to Keyclaok the following custom value has to be added to the Renku Helm chart values file at .keycloakx:

yaml extraInitContainers: | - name: theme-provider image: renku/keycloak-theme:9f9bf7b imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent command: - sh args: - -c - | echo "Copying theme..." cp -Rfv /renku_theme/* /theme volumeMounts: - name: theme mountPath: /theme securityContext: runAsNonRoot: true allowPrivilegeEscalation: false capabilities: drop: - ALL - name: init-certificates securityContext: allowPrivilegeEscalation: false runAsGroup: 65534 runAsUser: 65534 image: "registry.access.redhat.com/ubi8/ubi:8.4" command: ["sh", "-c"] args: ["mkdir -p /etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/openssl/ /etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/pem/ /etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/java/ /etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/edk2 && update-ca-trust"] volumeMounts: - name: etc-ssl-certs mountPath: /etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted

The only change from the default values and the above is the image field for the theme-provider container. All else is unchanged from the defaults but the field cannot be modified in a more granular fashion because it is an element of a list. The new theme will be used only for a month and then we will revert to the default value from the Helm chart.

renku - 0.62.0

This release introduces session secrets, which make it possible to connect to protected resources, such as databases or external compute systems, from a Renku session in a standardized and shareable manner. Collaborating with secrets is easy too: configure a single session secret slot to ensure that the secret shows up the same way for everyone, and each person enters their own value.

In addition, we have also made it much easier to configure and use PolyBox and SwitchDrive data connectors.

For administrators: This release removes the Gitlab omnibus Helm chart that we created and used to have as a dependency of the Renku Helm chart. We have been discouraging anyone from using this chart in production and we specified this in our documentation as well.

If you are using the internal Gitlab Helm chart then ensure to migrate to a separate Gitlab deployment as specified in our documentation. before installing this or any subsequent Renku version. Gitlab publishes an official Helm chart and that is what should be used for deploying Gitlab with Helm.

renku - 0.61.0

Renku 0.61.0 introduces a new version of Amalthea that supports running sessions with Docker images that do not contain Jupyter server.

NOTES to administrators:

This upgrade introduces a brand new CRD for sessions. All services that support sessions for Renku v2 will switch to this new CRD. Renku v1 sessions remain unchanged. Therefore any old sessions for Renku v2 will not be visible to users after this upgrade. The sessions themselves will not be immediately deleted and as long as users have saved links to their old sessions they should be able to access their sessions and save data. However we recommend that administrators notify users of the change and allow for enough time so that existing Renku v2 sessions can be saved and cleaned up, rather than asking users to save the url to their sessions. In addition to users not being able to see old Renku v2 sessions, they will also not be able to pause, resume or delete old Renku v2 sessions. Therefore it\'s best if most sessions are properly saved and cleaned up before this update is rolled out. In order to support the new CRD we have also created a new operator that will manage the new [amaltheasession]{.title-ref} resources.
The network policies for Renku have been consolidated and revamped. The most notable change here is the removal of the egress policy that prevented egress to internal IP addresses from sessions. Now we disallow all ingress in the Renku release namespace by default and explicitly grant permissions to any pods that need to access other pods inside the Renku release namespace. Two properties relevant to this have been added to the Helm chart values file that allows administrators to grant access to all Renku services from a specific namespace or to do the same for specific pods within the Renku namespace. These are not needed for Renku to function and the default network policies should be sufficient, they have been added so that administrators can allow ingress for other services that may not come with the Renku Helm chart such as logging or monitoring. This change will result in the removal of some network policies and the creation of several new policies.

User-Facing Changes

✨ Improvements

UI: Enable the use of custom images that don't contain Jupyter, streamlining the image-building process and allowing for the use of "off-the-shelf" images (#3341).

renku - 0.60.0

Renku 0.60.0 squashes an issue that has been tripping up many users when connecting their GitHub account, as well as various UX polish and bug fixes.

NOTE to administrators: Upgrading the csi-rclone component will unmount all cloud storage for all active or hibernated sessions. Therefore, we recommend notifying your users ahead of time when you deploy this version of Renku and also if possible deploying the upgrade when there are fewer sessions that use cloud storage or just fewer sessions in general. Once the upgrade is complete users will be able to mount cloud storage as usual.

Renku 0.52.1 fixes a few bugs in Renku 2.0, namely cases where: - sessions could not start if the parent project listed zero repositories and one or more cloud storages to mount - long running data migrations for user namespaces would cause the data service to keep restarting and never start

This release also includes minor improvements on the backend that will not be visible to users.

Breaking Changes

This release changes the name of the background jobs that synchronize the data service with Keycloak and also changes the corresponding section for these jobs in the values file. These jobs have a more general name because they will perform data migrations for the data service in addition to synchronizing with Keycloak. This requires additional actions from administrators only if you are setting custom values for dataService.keycloakSync in the values file, but in most cases the default images set in this section will be used so no action will be required.

renku - 0.51.1

Renku 0.51.1 fixes a bug where sessions were not considering the case (upper or lower) of the project name that was being cloned when a session is started. This resulted in the working directory being set to one location and the project cloned in another. This bug only affected projects where users have manually changed their project paths to include uppercase characters or for projects that were not created through Renku but were imported after creation.

renku - 0.47.0

This release expands Renku\'s cloud storage functionality in two key ways: First, mounted storages are now read and write, so you can use mounted storage as an active workspace for your data in a RenkuLab session. Second, we have expanded the cloud storage services you can integrate with RenkuLab. You can now mount not only S3 buckets, but also WebDAV-based storages and Azure Blobs.

If you use SSH sessions via the CLI, you can use cloud storage there too! Configure cloud storage for your project on RenkuLab.io, and those storages will be mounted in your remote session. Support for cloud storage in local Renku sessions is still on our roadmap.

This release also adds the ability to change which resource class your session uses when you unpause the session, in case the original resource class is now full.

Renku 0.42.0 allows RenkuLab administrators to easily manage user resource pools via an Admin Panel built into RenkuLab. User resource pools are a way to manage the compute resources accessible to groups of RenkuLab users for interactive sessions. From the new Admin Panel, admins can create resource pools, set their max resource quotas, customize the session classes available within pools, and add users to pools. Admins can access the new Admin Panel by navigating to the account icon in the top right in RenkuLab and selecting \'Admin Panel\'. To access the Admin Panel, a user must have the [renku-admin]{.title-ref} role delegated to them in Keycloak.

In addition, the login screen was updated to better space components on smaller screens and fix minor visual glitches.

renku - 0.41.0

Renku 0.41.0 adds new functionality for configuring external storage in projects! Users can now configure external storage to be mounted automatically in their sessions. The settings are persisted for the project, but access control is managed by the provider of the storage, not by Renku. This means that for restricted data sources, users must enter credentials separately. This first implementation only supports S3-compatible storage, but we will add support for additional providers soon.

In addition, with this release administrators can configure the RenkuLab homepage to highlight chosen projects.

A note to Renku administrators: this release includes breaking changes in our Helm chart values file. Refer to the Internal Changes section below for more details.

🌈 UI: Improve color contrast and other UX elements (#2846).

Internal Changes

This release is a breaking change to the Helm values file and it requires minor edits to the following field:

ui.homepage removed the unused projects field and added the showcase field.
amalthea.scheduler.* deprecates all existing child fields and adds new child fields. If you are not defining these fields in your values file then you are using the default Kubernetes scheduler and this requires no action. But if you are defining a custom scheduler in your deployment\'s values file then this requires additional edits to your values file so that you can retain the same functionality as before.
the crc field in the values file has been renamed to dataService, all child fields remain the same functionally and by name.
the global.gitlab.url value should be filled in with the Gitlab URL

For more details on the Helm chart values changes please refer to the explanation in helm-chart/values.yaml.changelog.md.

In addition to this, other notable changes include:

add node affinities and tolerations for resource classes
persist cloud storage configurations at the project level
validation of Rclone cloud storage configuration by the backend
update the Amalthea scheduler to work with newer versions of Kubernetes
renku-notebooks now get S3 cloud storage configuration from renku-data-services

- Jupyter Notebook
Published by olevski over 2 years ago

renku - 0.39.0

Renku 0.39.0 moves all renku component Helm charts to one single chart that now resides in this repository.

After initial testing we have noticed a bug in this version of the Helm chart. If you have already deployed this version simply upgrading to 0.39.1 will fix things. If you have not yet deployed this version then skip it and go straight to 0.39.1. The reason for the bug is that we replaced the spec.selector.matchLabels field of two important deployments in the Gateway because of this the two components do not upgrade and the whole Helm upgrade operation fails.

Also, with the next releases we will adopt a specific way of versioning the helm chart. Namely:

Patch changes (i.e. 0.50.1 -> 0.50.2) indicate that there are NO changes in the Helm chart and that only application level bug fixes are present in the new release.
Minor version changes (i.e. 0.50.2 -> 0.51.0) indicate that there are NO changes in the Helm chart and that only application level new features and/or application level breaking changes are present.
Major version changes (i.e. 0.50.0 -> 1.0.0) will be reserved for changes in the Helm chart, either when the values file changes or when the Helm templates change.

Please note that this is a breaking change to the values file and it requires three minor edits to the following fields:

graph.jena.* moved to jena.*
notebooks.amalthea.* moved to amalthea.*
notebooks.dlf-chart.* moved to dlf-chart.*

For more details please refer to the explanation in helm-chart/values.yaml.changelog.md.

There are now no more separate Helm charts for the core, notebooks, graph, UI and gateway components. All the Helm templates have been moved into the main Renku Helm chart in this repository.

Renku 0.37.0 introduces a new feature to pause sessions and later resume them exactly where you left off. All of your work in progress, including files, data, and environment changes not saved to git, are resumed right as you left them.

This feature replaces RenkuLab\'s branch-based auto-save mechanism. Most users do not have to do anything to transition from auto-saves to persistent sessions. However, if your last session went into an auto-save, you can still retrieve that work by using Start with Options and selecting your most recent auto-save branch. If your project contains auto-save branches that you do not need anymore, you can safely delete them.
