Docker releases

Note

From time to time, the versions of the two primary images, Dash4 frontend and TethysDash backend, are "re-synced" depending on involved adjustments, but in general it is not expected that both images have the same version. See here for more details.

4.64.0 - 4.70.3¶

2024-05-01 - Frontend 4.64.0 - change log
2024-05-10 - Backend 4.70.3 - Backend change log

Note

Significant internal updates to the backend system since version 4.70.1, which has been exercised with various vehicle deployments without any issues since 2024-04-21.

4.63.0¶

2024-03-27

Dash4 4.63.0 - change log
Backend 4.63.0 - Backend change log

4.62.0¶

2024-02-13

Dash4 4.62.0 - change log
Backend 4.62.0 - Backend change log

4.60.0 - 4.61.0¶

2024-01-12

Dash4 4.60.0 - change log
Backend 4.61.0 - Backend change log

4.53.3 - 4.53.4¶

2023-09-19

Dash4 4.53.3 - change log
Backend 4.53.4 - Backend change log

4.53.0¶

2023-09-01

Both Dash4 and TethysDash backend versions "re-synced" at 4.53.0.

4.50.5¶

2023-06-01

Both Dash4 and TethysDash backend versions "resynced" at 4.50.5, in this case with Dash4 4.50.5 actually requiring backend 4.50.5 due to a new configuration setting (see below).

Template: 4.50.5/tethysdash-instance-template.tgz

Addition in the template:

New required entry external.ws in config/TethysDash.conf to indicate the URL of the websocket endpoint, for example:

external {
  ...

  # External URL of the websocket endpoint:
  ws = "ws://localhost:18080/TethysDash/ws"

  ...

Previously, Dash4 would determine such URL based on the URL of the TethysDash service itself, but it is more appropriate that the backend explicitly indicate this as it is after all also the place where the websocket endpoint is defined depending on any related proxy passes and such.

4.40.4¶

2023-04-20

Basically this version consolidates some recent interim versions (while also reflecting a "resync" of both backend and frontend versions).

Internal: removal of long unneeded dependencies and other code cleanup. In particular, removal of the "pusher" dependency: Our direct websockets based mechanism has proved robust and reliable for a good while already.

Template: 4.10.8/tethysdash-instance-template.tgz

Changes in the template:

config/TethysDash.conf:
- Removal of the async.pusher section: pusher is no longer used.

Template: 4.10.1/tethysdash-instance-template.tgz

Changes in the template:

config/TethysDash.conf (see mapOptions section in this file for more details):
- mapOptions.baseLayersDir: New entry.
- mapOptions.stationsFile: Deprecated.

For app deployment purposes, the only changes are in docker-compose.yml:

Now with version: '3.7' (at the top of the file)
Now with additional init: true setting for each of the containers

These adjustments are intended for a more graceful termination of the containers. In the case of TethysDash, this should help prevent issues with potentially incomplete tasks (e.g., git related re-synchronization of clones) when the container is restarted as part of regular updates or OS system patches, etc.

4.9.6¶

2022-04-05

Template: 4.9.6/tethysdash-instance-template.tgz

4.8.4¶

2021-12-13

Template: 4.8.4/tethysdash-instance-template.tgz

Changes in the system:

Critical security update in the backend (v4.7.0).
As usual, please see the change logs for the frontend and the backend.

4.8.2¶

2021-11-18

Template: 4.8.3/tethysdash-instance-template.tgz

Changes in the system:

As usual, please see the change logs for the frontend and the backend.

4.8.0¶

2021-11-09

Template: 4.8.0/tethysdash-instance-template.tgz

docker-compose.yml: With placeholder X.Y.Z for the version of the mbari/tethysdash image. Of course, please set this to appropriate version in your deployment.

4.7.8¶

2021-11-08

Template: 4.7.8/tethysdash-instance-template.tgz

Changes in the template:

setenv.sh:
- New optional variable TETHYSDASH_LOGS that facilitates mapping the location of the TethysDash application log directory. Adjust docker-compose.yml accordingly.
docker-compose.yml:
- Optional use of the TETHYSDASH_LOGS variable to map the application log directory.
- Change in the version of the 'mbari/tethysdash' image.

Change in how the main TethysDash log is exposed

The main application log is now explicitly captured in a file with name main.log. This means that a command like docker logs -f tethysdash(*) is not anymore the typical mechanism to see the log. Instead, one will look at this main log as follows:

docker exec -it tethysdash tail -f /usr/local/tomcat/logs/main.log

Alternatively, if that logs directory in the container is mapped to a host location via the TETHYSDASH_LOGS setting indicated above, one can then simply run on the host directly, for example:

tail -f td_logs/main.log

Such volume mapping is in general more convenient, especially considering that there are other log files generated by the application (e.g., ws.log for websocket-related activity), as well as in terms of persistence of the logs.

(*)

docker logs -f tethysdash will now only show basic logging related with the launch and termination of the TethysDash application as reported from the application server (Tomcat).

New index in TethysDash database

There is a new index specified for the event table in the database. This is typically a large table so, upon a first launch of this new release, a delay (potentially of a couple of minutes) will be noted until the index is completed. The service may not be very responsive while such reindexing takes place.

4.7.0¶

2021-10-12

Template: 4.7.0/tethysdash-instance-template.tgz

Changes in the template:

docker-compose.yml: Only change is the version of the 'mbari/tethysdash' image.

docker-compose.yml: Only change is the version of the 'mbari/tethysdash' image.
config/TethysDash.conf: New optional entry vehicleNames (at first level) to indicate the concrete list of vehicle names for the UI to consider. This is a convenience for when the underlying lrauv-config repo involves more vehicles than desired to expose in the UI.
```
vehicleNames = ["foo", "bar"]
```

4.5.2¶

2021-06-01

Template: 4.5.2/tethysdash-instance-template.tgz

Changes in the template:

docker-compose.yml: Only change is the version of the 'mbari/tethysdash' image.

  }
  ...
```
NOTE: websockets will be the automatic default in a future version. For now, please keep the setting as indicated above.

Changes in the system:

4.2.3¶

2020-12-13

Template: 4.2.3/tethysdash-instance-template.tgz

Changes in the template:

docker-compose.yml: Only change is the version of the 'mbari/tethysdash' image.

    {
      "name": "<name to be shown>",
      [ "wms": true, ]
      [ "legendurl": "https://...", ]
      "urlTemplate": "https://...",

```
For each given layer, the given information will be passed to the Leaflet library used by the Dash. In concrete, the Dash will use a TileLayer.WMS if "wms": true is given, or TileLayer otherwise. The "options" object is passed directly as given. The optional "legendurl" entry is used by the Dash to show a tooltip for the entry.

3.9.8¶

2020-04-30

Template: 3.9.8/tethysdash-instance-template.tgz.

NOTE: No changes in the template wrt 3.9.77, except for the image version in docker-compose.yml.

3.9.77¶

2020-03-16

Template: 3.9.77/tethysdash-instance-template.tgz.

It contains:

    .
    ├── README.md
    ├── setenv.sh
    ├── config
    │   ├── TethysDash.conf   (*)
    │   ├── miscLinks.json
    │   └── stations.json
    └── docker-compose.yml    (*)

(*) The only files with adjustments.

Upgrading to 3.9.77

config/TethysDash.conf:
- New cellConnStatus section. This section includes two entries, hostNamePattern and hostNames, that allow to explicitly indicate the host name of the server to "ping" for checking cell connection status for each vehicle. (Note: this mechanism can be considered temporary until the corresponding information gets captured in the vehicle configuration itself.)
- Section done removed. (The corresponding unneeded scripts have been removed from the image /opt/tethysdash/tools/{runShoreScripts.sh,tethysCentroid.py}.)
docker-compose.yml:
- The only change here is about the new tethysdash image version.

Upgrade steps

Stop and remove your current tethysdash container (no need to stop the tdpostgres one):

cd .../your/tethysdash/
source setenv.sh
docker compose stop tethysdash
docker compose rm tethysdash

Do any necessary updates to your existing files from previous template as explained above.

Start new 3.9.77 tethysdash container:

docker compose up -d
docker logs -f --tail=20 tethysdash

3.9.73¶

2020-02-20

Template: 3.9.73/tethysdash-instance-template.tgz.

It contains:

    .
    ├── README.md
    ├── setenv.sh
    ├── config
    │   ├── TethysDash.conf
    │   ├── miscLinks.json     <-  new file
    │   └── stations.json
    └── docker-compose.yml

Upgrading from 3.9.4 to 3.9.73

Summary of changes as reflected in the template:

README.md updated (some irrelevant details removed).
setenv.sh now, as a convenience, also creates some of the directories to make sure they are owned by the running user. For an upgrade, the directories will of course already exist, so the ownership should be changed as needed after stopping your current version and before launching the new version.
config/TethysDash.conf:
- New entry sbd.outgoing.alternativeAddresses to indicate a list of alternative destination addresses for the SBDs. If not empty, new buttons in the GUI will be available as follows:
  - Send Commands to <vehicle-name> via alternative address when issuing a mission;
  - Submit to alternative address when issuing a command.
- The entry external.miscLinks has been removed. Instead, this optional feature is indicated with the config/miscLinks.json file described below.
- Obsolete mapOptions.stationsFile entry removed. This feature was already captured via config/stations.json file.
New file config/miscLinks.json to indicate any links to be included in the main dropdown menu in the Dash UI.

Upgrade steps

Stop your current 3.9.4 system:

cd .../your/tethysdash/
source setenv.sh
docker compose down

Do any necessary updates to your existing files from previous template as explained above.
If needed, recursively change ownership of mapped directories so they belong to current user.

Start new 3.9.73 system:

source setenv.sh
docker compose up -d
docker logs -f tethysdash

3.9.4¶

2019-12-06

Template: 3.9.4/tethysdash-instance-template.tgz.
