OpenC3 COSMOS 5.13.0 - Non-Root Containers and AstroUx Styling

Welcome to OpenC3 COSMOS 5.13.0!

IMPORTANT: Breaking change to Non-Root Containers and Renamed Minio Volume

Previously all of our non-COSMOS unique containers ran as received from Docker Hub (so Traefik and Minio ran as root). Going forward all of our containers are configured to run as non-root users (except with rootless podman - which isn't really running as root).

This is a breaking change as earlier versions have volume mounted data that is owned by other user ids. Additionally we renamed the openc3-minio-v volume to openc3-bucket-v to ease upgrading to Enterprise Edition. Note that significant changes were made to compose.yaml and all traefik config files.

To migrate from COSMOS 5.12.0 to 5.13.0 please run the following scripts from your COSMOS project folder.

MacOS/Linux: https://github.com/OpenC3/cosmos-project/blob/05c95a24627ac0694fd4af605533de1eb13683f4/migrate_5_12_to_5_13.sh

Windows: https://github.com/OpenC3/cosmos-project/blob/05c95a24627ac0694fd4af605533de1eb13683f4/migrate_5_12_to_5_13.bat

Note: you should always review shell scripts before running them on your computer.

AstroUx 7 Styling

We've gone through a review with Rocket Communications and all of our tools have a fresh new update to AstroUx version 7! You'll notice more consistent styling and layout throughout and a fresh new look. Also, all value widgets for items with limits now show an icon to indicate limits state improving color blind support.

TlmGrapher Array Items

You can now graph individual items from arrays in TlmGrapher!

ScriptRunner Open Recent

ScriptRunner now keeps track of recently opened files in the File menu

More Persistent config when leaving tools and coming back

Whenever you leave a COSMOS tool and then return, it will generally now continue with the same settings as when you left, rather than refreshing.

New MqttStreamInterface

New interface that supports using two Mqtt topics as byte streams for sending and receiving data.

Python Streaming API

Added python code to support all of our Websocket Apis including the StreamingApi.

Calendar and Autonomic Now Enterprise Only

These tools have been moved to COSMOS Enterprise Edition going forward. Thanks to all of our Enterprise customers for supporting us!

Python code generators now available

Our code generators now support either Ruby or Python. Just add --python to the end for Python support.

Important Bug Fixes

1. The cmd() log_message parameter now works again
2. Fixed commanding with binary data from Python
3. Fixed the XTCE converter and added XTCE support for ContainerRefEntry
4. Python suite analysis now handles load_utility calls
