7.0.13

Clarive 7.0.13 Release Notes¶

Release date: 24 March 2018

We're pleased to present our new release Clarive 7.0.13. This release contains a lot of minor fixes and improvements from 7.0.12. It is also focus on refactoring interface improving the kanban boards.

In Clarive 7.0.13 you can find a new Git repository navigation panel completely refactored. You can view sources, navigate branches and tags, compare references and much more.

To access the new interface, just navigate to the project in the left panel, expand it and click on the repository node.

Load default data by profile¶

Now any Clarive profile (a profile is a predefined set of topic categories, rules and roles that can be loaded in Clarive) can include default data as part of it.

ClariveSE profile now includes a sample-html project and two releases with several changes on them. It also automates the launch of 3 deployment jobs to INTE, TEST and PROD.

To get the profile and the default sample data installed, execute cla setup <profile> and answer yes to the question Load defaul data?. Once you start the Clarive server it will automatically load the profile and the default data

Note

Keep in mind that it will execute the jobs so the completion of the default data load will take a while (2 minutes aprox)

Kanban Board improvements¶

Custom card layout¶

You can now configure the layout of the cards of your Kanban Boards to show the information that you really want to focus on. To configure the layout, go to the board Configuration and select Cards Layout.

Auto refresh¶

In the Quick View options panel (click on View button), now you'll find a switch to toggle the Auto Refresh for this board. It will be updated with changes in the topics shown whenever the board tab is activated.

Save quick view by user¶

In Clarive 7.0.13 the options selected in the quick view menu will be saved locally in your browser storage so every time you open the board it will use the last swimlanes, autorefresh, cards per list, etc. configuration you used.

Predefined statuses by list¶

Whenever you create a new board, it will be created with three default lists and now it will assign default statuses to these three lists with the following rules:

New: Initial statuses
In Progress: Normal statuses
Done: Final and Cancelled statuses

Killtree when job is cancelled¶

One of the most important improvements of Clarive 7.0.13 is the ability to kill/cancel the remote processes being executed by a job when this is cancelled from the interface.

Important

This feature is only available for remote processes executed with a ssh agent for now. In next versions it will also be available for clax and worker agents.

You can read about this new feature in this blog post
