Changelog for MishkaInstaller 0.1.6

Copy Markdown View Source

Features:

  • Rework the Installer to load pre-built ebin artifacts at runtime (:path, :url, :github_tag, :github_latest_release) with no mix/source compilation — release-safe #102
  • Add a Req-based Downloader for :url/:github_tag/:github_latest_release artifact downloads #102
  • Add an install allow/deny policy via config :mishka_installer, :allowlist (url_hosts, github_repos, protected_apps) #102
  • Add optional SHA-256 checksum: verification for downloaded artifacts #102
  • Replay installed apps on boot via Installer.CompileHandler — re-load and start from disk + Mnesia, working in a release's embedded code-loading mode #102
  • Add a plugin health-check system: optional health_check/0 plus Hook.plugin_health/2, event_health/2, and health/1 #102
  • Add the optional on_dependency_error/1 Hook callback for reacting to registration/dependency errors #102
  • Add Hook.profile/2 to measure each plugin's run time in a compiled event chain #102
  • Add dynamic Mnesia cluster membership to MnesiaRepo (auto/seed/join, disc_copies, node up/down handling) #102
  • Add a volume-friendly, configurable :extensions_path and Mnesia dir, a Production deployment guide, and a real mix release start/restart test #102
  • Add lib/helper utilities (Helper.Extra, Helper.UUID) and QueueAssistant #102

Refactors:

  • Unroll the plugin call chain at compile time in ModuleStateCompiler (direct dispatch, {:reply, state} continue / {:reply, :halt, state} halt) and memoize the event→module mapping in :persistent_term for the hot Hook.call/3 path #102
  • Breaking — move the Mnesia helpers under the Helper namespace: MishkaInstaller.MnesiaAssistant.* → MishkaInstaller.Helper.MnesiaAssistant.* (now in lib/helper/) #102
  • Breaking — make the installer allowlist fail-closed: an empty/absent url_hosts/github_repos now blocks remote installs (local :path installs are unaffected) #102
  • Remove the legacy runtime-compilation path (System.cmd/Port running mix deps.get/compile) and installer/collect.ex #102
  • Slim the Hook macro to thin delegators (logic centralized in Event.Hook) and explicitly load installed app modules for release (embedded) mode #102
  • Expand the test suite with real/dynamic tests (real Hook GenServers, real Mnesia, Req.Test) and raise coverage #102

Bugs:

  • Fix dependency auto-start: lifecycle broadcasts carried empty data, so a :held plugin never auto-started when the dependency it waited on activated #102
  • Fix infinite recursion in Helper.MnesiaAssistant.Error.error_description/2 on an unknown aborted-tuple reason #102
  • Fix path traversal: reject an app/version whose resolved package path escapes the extensions directory before any File.rm_rf!/rename/extract (install and uninstall) #102
  • Fix tar-slip: reject archive members with absolute or .. paths before extraction #102
  • Fix @impl/deprecation/codegen warnings (declare on_dependency_error/1, module.initialize?() parens, generated :halt clause) #102

Changelog for MishkaInstaller 0.1.0

Kindly ensure that the MishkaInstaller Library is updated as quickly as feasible. This version includes rewriting whole project. It should be noted we do not support previous versions.

You will see that this version of the project has undergone a total overhaul, and the strategy that was taken to it has been radically altered.

Because of this, it is not possible to write down the details, and each area has its own document that you are able to study thoroughly.
