This release focuses on the improvement of the seach with Russian characters in property names and values. |
| Info |
|---|
In this releaseUse Russian or most UTF-8 characters in property names, values and in the search. |
...
This is rather a technical release, to check everything works well with some big underlying change:
We are now using Javascript/ES6. It shouldn't be visible from the user's point of view but, in case of issue, you can downgrade back to 2.3.3.
We support UTF-8 in property names and values! (long-awaited feature) We also support numbers, for example "baseline = 1" is now legal.
We've removed the "Email our support from within the app" feature, for GDPR compliance.
We've disabled jobs when Confluence was in read-only mode.
Release 2.4.2
Minor bugfixes
...
Our change: We index properties differently.
Before: We used to let the user search on the HTML of the properties,
After: We've split the column between display and search, so what is displayed is the HTML, but what can be searched is the textual content of a value.
Example: If a property contained a status, the HTML would be something like <span class="status-success">OK</span>, so the search query would be ugly: @Property = '<span class="status-success">OK</span>'
Stored data for display | Stored data for search | Displayed as | Search query | Comments | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Before | <span class="status-success">OK</span> | (None, it didn't exist) |
| @Property = '<span class="status-success">OK</span>' | The search was ugly. | ||||||
After | <span class="status-success">OK</span> | "OK" |
| @Property = 'OK' | Awesome. |
I hope you understand that this is a major improvement, and will be satisfied with the implementation.
Other changes:
It is not necessary anymore to use quotes around numbers: "baseline = 1" or "page = 2" are valid queries,
We've introduced "==" for the strict equality.
We've introduced functions, for the moment only one:
user("mylogin") returns an object of type User which can only be used when checking mentions in properties, example: @Author = user("mylogin"). Also works with the user's key.
