https://spaces.at.internet2.edu/display/Grouper/v2.2+Release+Notes#v2.2ReleaseNotes-NewFeaturesinv2.2.0

https://spaces.at.internet2.edu/display/Grouper/Grouper+changes+v2.2

  • New UI: There is a new more usable UI which makes Grouper easy to use by end users and administrators. It co-exists with the legacy Admin UI and the Lite UIs.
  • Legacy attribute migration: Migrate from legacy attributes to the new attribute framework in a transparent way. The API, WS, and UI work similar as they did before.
  • SCIM events: SCIM events can be sent from Grouper to keep SCIM compatible systems in sync with Grouper.
  • Improved configuration: Grouper config files can have hierarchical overlays to make Grouper easier to deploy and upgrade across multiple environments.
  • Unix GID management: Grouper objects now have a unique integer ID which can be used in GID management
  • Services in Grouper: Ability to tag folders in Grouper (via the attribute framework) so that folders, groups, permissions can be grouped into a "service". The API/UI/WS can filter search results based on the service to make it easier for users to perform tasks in Grouper.
  • Many other fixes and improvements were also made to all components of the Grouper Toolkit: Grouper API, Administrative & Lite UIs, Grouper Web Services, Grouper Client, Grouper Shell, Grouper Loader, PSP, and the Subject API.

2.0.0 - 2011-09-06

https://spaces.at.internet2.edu/display/Grouper/v2.0+Release+Notes

New Features

  • Rules: Similar to Grouper Hooks, but instead of Java logic, built in actions or expression language scripts can be executed
  • External subjects: If your Identity Management System does not support external users (e.g. via EPPN), then Grouper can manage that with self registration and or invitations which will can provision memberships
  • Syncing groupers: A group in one Grouper can be sync'ed with a group in another Grouper. For instance if two institutions want to share a group of subjects but store them in their own Grouper
  • Attribute and Permissions UI: User interface to define, view, and assign attributes and permissions in Grouper. The attributes can be assigned to many types of Grouper objects including Groups, Folders, Members, Memberships, etc. The permissions are used as a central permissions management system for other applications at your institution
  • Grouper-Atlassian connector: If you cannot connect Atlassian applications (e.g. Jira, Confluence) to your Grouper managed LDAP, then you can use this connector which used Grouper Web Services to manage your Atlassian groups and person information
  • Permissions Allow/disallow: A permission assignment can be an allow or disallow (to filter out allows inherited from another assignment)
  • Permission limits: A run-time decision can be applied to immediate permission allows so that context environment variables can change an allow to a disallow. e.g. permissions are only allowed at a certain time of day or from a certain IP address. Grouper can calculate this on the server or the client can get the limits and calculate them.
  • Web service versioning: Grouper 2.0 web servers will accept clients coded against Grouper 1.6 or previous WS API's
  • Point in Time Audit: This allows you to query the state of Grouper at a point in time in the past or a date range in the past. You can query for memberships, privileges and permissions.

Improvements and Fixes

  • Member Search and Sort: Additional data is now stored about subjects in Grouper. This allows you to sort a list of members and search a list of members without having to go to the subject source to query attributes for each subject in the list that you would then use for the sort or search operation.
  • ldappcng caching (performance): The SPMLDataConnector supports caching similar to other Shibboleth DataConnectors
  • Notification improvements: Additional notifications are available now for permissions and the attribute framework.
  • Many other fixes and improvements were also made to all components of the Grouper Toolkit: Grouper API, Administrative & Lite UIs, Grouper Web Services, Grouper Client, Grouper Shell, Grouper Loader, Ldappc, Ldappc-ng, and the Subject API.

1.6.0 - 2010-07-24

https://spaces.at.internet2.edu/display/Grouper/v1.6+Release+Notes

New Features

  • Web service enhancements: Web services now support the new attribute and permission frameworks, subject service, new options for existing operations.
  • Kuali Rice integration: Connector for Kuali Rice to communicate with Grouper, can delegate Group decisions to Grouper and facilitate workflow in Grouper actions.
  • New Ldappc: A completely new Ldappc, Ldappc-ng, is included in the Grouper Toolkit in addition to the original Ldappc. Ldappc-ng uses SPML for provisioning and builds on Shibboleth's attribute resolver technology. The new attribute framework and permissions can be provisioned to LDAP with Ldappc-ng.
  • ESB integration: Grouper can provision group and folder information to and read in changes from an ESB using HTTPS or XMPP.
  • Subject picker: External applications can use the Grouper subject picker UI component to pick people.
  • Lite UI skinning: Lite UI can look like application that launches it, and can have customized text and instructions.
  • Flattened memberships: A new, additional flattened memberships table improves notification performance and lays the foundation for further read performance enhancement through the Grouper Toolkit.

Improvements & Fixes

  • UI sorting and paging of memberships: The effective membership list was improved to sort and page correctly
  • Composite groups and memberships: Ldappc had trouble provisioning include/exclude groups
  • Grouper UI access control lists: Grouper UI ACL's were straightened out

https://spaces.at.internet2.edu/display/Grouper/v1.5+Release+Notes

New Features

  • Lite UI: An AJAX-based widget simplifies some end user interactions. Available in two ways: free-standing, or integrated within the Administrative UI.
  • Audit: Who took which management actions when is recorded and made available for viewing and reporting.
  • Move and Copy: Move or copy groups and folders to other folders, with the option to preserve old group names so that applications may continue to refer to the old name.
  • Notification: Real-time notification of group, folder, membership, and privilege changes are available through the Grouper API.
  • Attribute framework: Assign custom attributes to groups, memberships, folders, and other attributes.
  • Roles and Permissions: Support for Roles and Role hierarchies. Permissions can be attached to Roles or to Memberships in Roles.

https://spaces.at.internet2.edu/display/Grouper/v1.3-Release+Notes

  • Added: ability to disable editing of group attributes / member lists for site configured groups i.e. groups which should be loader maintained.
  • Added: additional error checking in the UI - whether key properties are set and added option to build the generated client when building the web service.
  • Added: compiled Java in all components includes debug information, which means that stack traces in log files will have line numbers which makes it easier to debug problems.
  • Added: example kerberos authentication configuration for the UI.
  • Added: exception handling and logging to the UI.
  • Added: foreign keys to database.
  • Added: gsh source to the Internet2 CVS repository and added a page to the Wiki.
  • Added: jsr107cache-1.0.jar - required by default on Solaris.
  • Fixed: Advanced Search link for groups in the UI.
  • Fixed: gsh.bat - was not correctly building the classpath.
  • Fixed: some CSS issues with IE6.
  • Improved: Hibernate support. Upgraded to Hibernate 3.2.6 and added transaction support Hibernate 2.x support is no longer included.
  • Improved: changed the XHTML declaration to use transitional DTD rather than strict - reduces number of errors until we can try to tidy up issues.
  • Improved: gsh error reporting. Exceptions from Grouper should now be summarised in gsh output and full stack traces writen to grouper_error.log.
  • Improved: new settings in grouper.properties make it possible to define user / db connection urls which can / cannot have their schemas rebuilt. If not configured the test script will prompt the user to confirm that it is OK to drop a schema. This makes it more difficult to accidentally lose data.
  • Improved: performance.
  • Improved: transaction handling code will attempt to inject additional information into a caught Exception. If successful the Exception is not logged - assumes that your code will handle logging.
  • Improved: user interface.
  • New: applied transactions to the UI so that a whole action succeeds and is committed, or fails and is rolled back.
  • New: experimental web services interface.
  • New: extension for removing memberships for unresolvable subjects.
