4.1

Found and fixes another issue that surfaces on systems with systemd <= 253. Fixed the issue and added CI coverage.

What's Changed

• Fix systemd-creds decrypt failing on systemd 250-253 (Raspberry Pi OS bookworm); bump to 4.2 by @GavinLucas in https://github.com/GavinLucas/send-to-influx/pull/50

4.1

Found and fixed an issue in deb package upgrade that resulted in unnecessary reconfiguration.

What's Changed

• Fix debconf upgrade UX: InfluxDB decoupled from source selection, no misleading final message by @GavinLucas in https://github.com/GavinLucas/send-to-influx/pull/48
• Update mypy requirement from ~=2.2.0 to ~=2.3.0 by @dependabot[bot] in https://github.com/GavinLucas/send-to-influx/pull/49

Full Changelog: GavinLucas/send-to-influx@4.0...4.1

4.0

Modified the deb package so that now it uses debconf menus for initial configuration (or configuration change via dpkg-reconfigure) and also securely stores secrets such as passwords and keys in systemd-creds rather than in the config file.

Secrets in the config file will continue to work for existing deb installs and also installs not using the deb package. If secrets are stored in the config file, it will perform a check of the file permissions at startup, so do check the logs for warnings.

What's Changed

• Add systemd-creds credential storage and debconf-driven install for the packaged .deb by @GavinLucas in https://github.com/GavinLucas/send-to-influx/pull/45
• Fix v2 InfluxDB auth being unconfigurable via a fresh debconf install by @GavinLucas in https://github.com/GavinLucas/send-to-influx/pull/47

3.1

A few fixes in this patch release.

The main one relates to speedtest. When it times out a connection to a server to use for the 'ping' test, on failure it adds an arbitrary 3600 seconds to the reported time, so if it fails to connect to three hosts then it reports the ping time as 30 minutes, when in reality it would have timed out a ping probe at 10 seconds. Added some code in so that we reject anything over 5000ms, as speedtest does itself.

Removed some code where secrets could be passed in as environment variables, as in reality it's no more secure than keeping settings.yaml secure, which we'd need to do anyway since the settings could be kept in there either way.

At the same time made a change so that if a log file wasn't writable, we'll handle that cleanly.

What's Changed

• Turn an unwritable logfile into a clean ConfigError instead of a raw traceback by @GavinLucas in https://github.com/GavinLucas/send-to-influx/pull/34
• Add gh-pages ruleset support: commit signing + release/feature ruleset docs by @GavinLucas in https://github.com/GavinLucas/send-to-influx/pull/35
• Remove the INFLUX_TOKEN/INFLUX_PASSWORD env-var secrets mechanism by @GavinLucas in https://github.com/GavinLucas/send-to-influx/pull/37
• Update mypy requirement from ~=2.1.0 to ~=2.2.0 by @dependabot[bot] in https://github.com/GavinLucas/send-to-influx/pull/38
• Reject implausible Speedtest ping values instead of writing them to InfluxDB by @GavinLucas in https://github.com/GavinLucas/send-to-influx/pull/39

The most obvious change is that we now have a deb package and repo. The process will run as a system service under systemd.
