Welcome to Janeway 1.3.6

Upgrade Notes

  • Follow the normal upgrade procedure (from the root janeway folder run sh update.sh
  • Note there are some heavy data migrations so this upgrade may take some time

Security

  • Django version has been bumped to 1.11.22 due to a vulnerability
  • Permissions for Section Editors has been overhauled so they should now be able to access required workflow pages

Plugins

Janeway now allows you to set a required version for a plugin starting in 1.3.6. This can be added by creating a new variable in plugin_settings.py: JANEWAY_VERSION = "1.3.6". Janeway will throw an error if the version does not match the current.
