✨ What's New

Event Gateway 1.2 Feature Support

v1.4.0 ships full declarative lifecycle support for Event Gateway 1.2 features (#1406):

• topic_aliases on virtual clusters can now be declared, planned, applied, synced, and dumped end-to-end
• min_runtime_version is now handled for Event Gateway control planes, allowing configs to pin a specific runtime version (e.g. 1.2)
• explain and scaffold command coverage updated for Event Gateway resources
• New opt-in E2E scenario: event-gateway/topic-aliases (gated by KONGCTL_E2E_RUN_EGW_TOPIC_ALIASES)

kongctl roar — Feel the Kong Power!

A new roar command brings an animated Kong ASCII art experience to your terminal (#1309):

kongctl roar

Supports --placement to position the animation (e.g. top-left, center, bottom-right). Requires a terminal at least 48 columns wide.

🐛 Fixes & Improvements

Konnect SDK Update: sdk-konnect-go v0.41.0

Upgraded the Konnect Go SDK from v0.36.0 to v0.41.0 (#1394), with targeted adaptations across portal and Event Gateway resources:

• Portal identity provider operations now use portal-specific SDK models (PortalIdentityProvider, PortalCreateIdentityProvider, PortalUpdateIdentityProvider)
• Portal customization resources use PortalCustomizationV3
• Event Gateway schema validation fixtures updated for the discriminator union model
• login_path is now explicitly rejected on portal identity providers rather than silently dropped (tracked in #1393)

Dependency Updates

• go.yaml.in/yaml/v4 → v4.0.0-rc.6
• github.com/alecthomas/chroma/v2 → v2.27.0
