Minor bugfix release: fixes a few packaging issues and an obnoxious but nonfatal bug in the websocket server, introduced in 0.2.3.
- Packages generate correct md5sums by default
- Tarball package logs to cwd, not /var/log/riemann.log.
- Aleph 0.3.1: fixes a bug which caused websockets to crash on the first conn
- Explicit gen-class for riemann.bin; aids in embedding Riemann in Java
- Early work towards testable configs
Riemann continues to expand in scope and adaptability, especially adding support for integration with other monitoring systems. Metrics for riemann internals are now recorded and exposed as events through the standard streams. Packaging improvements and some minor performance/bugfixes round out the mix!
- Comprehensive instrumentation for UDP, TCP, and Websocket servers, plus core; latencies, queue depths, and throughput
- Plugin system for loading external namespaces from the classpath.
- Standard deviation fold
- HipChat client
- Logstash client
- Support for passive Nagios checks
- HTTP server-sent-event transport
- Librato adapter can take a sequence of events, e.g. from rollups. Much more efficient
- Improved error handling for Websockets HTTP server for 404 paths
- Custom attributes included in emails and SNS notifications
- config/include can now recursively load all files if given a directory
- Ratios are now formatted as doubles in email
- Debian package now correctly respects

This is a small maintenance release to address a few issues with 0.2.0: most notably, an accidental transitive dependency on a snapshot release of Yammer Metrics which is no longer available.
- streams/runs: detects runs of successive events.
- Various documentation fixes.
- Riemann.pool uses a LinkedBlockingQueue--reports improved performance.
- Fix dependencies on Aleph and Lamina which relied on a snapshot variant of Yammer Metrics.
- Debian package init script reports "already running" when appropriate.
- Debian package depends on Java.
- (streams core) is no longer lazy (fixes a possible threading issue).
- Some utility functions for emails got moved to riemann.common, to facilitate their re-use.
Guess it's time we started a formal changelog. Version 0.2.0 is a fairly major improvement in Riemann's performance and capabilities. Many things have been solidified, expanded, or tuned, and there are a few completely new ideas as well.
There are a few minor API changes, mostly to internal structure--but a few streams are involved as well. Most functions will continue to work normally, but log a deprecation notice when used.
- Arbitrary key-value (string) pairs on events
- Hot config reloading
- Integrated nrepl server
- streams/sdo: bind together multiple streams as one
- streams/split: like (cond), dispatch an event to the first matching stream
- streams/splitp: like split, but on the basis of a specific predicate
- config/delete-from-index: explicitly remove (similar) events from the index
- streams/top: streaming top-k
- streams/tag: add tags to events
- RPM packaging
- Init scripts, proper log dirs, and users for debian and RPM packages. Yeah, this means you can /etc/init.d/riemann reload, and Stuff Just Works (TM).
- folds/difference, product, and quotient.
- Folds come in sloppy and strict variants which should "Do What I Mean" in most contexts.
- Executor Services for asynchronous queued processing of events.
- streams/exception-stream: captures exceptions and converts them to events.
- http://riemann.io site
- Lots more documentation and examples
- Config file syntax errors are detected early
- Cleaned up server logging
- Helpful messages (line numbers! filenames!) for configuration errors
- Silence closed channel exceptions
- Cores can preserve services like pubsub, the index, etc through reloads
- Massive speedups in TCP and UDP server throughput
- streams/rate works in real-time: no need for fill-in any more
- Graphite client is faster, more complete
- Config files can include other files by relative path
- streams/coalesce passes on expired events
- riemann.email/mailer can take custom :subject and :body functions
- riemann.config includes some common time/scheduling functions
- streams/where returns whether it matched an event, which means (where) is now re-usable as a predicate in lots of different contexts.

- streams/counter is resettable to a particular metric, and supports expiry
- Bring back "hyperspace core online"
- Update to netty 3.6.1
