6.0.0

  • CommonJs to ESM (.mjs)
  • support for mashlib >= 2.0.0
  • support solid-OIDC with WebID scope, es256, and rfc9702

6.0.0 Upgrade Notes

1.0 Automatically recreated

  • delete .db/oidc/op/provider.json
  • delete config/templates/emails If not recreated then copy from default-emails If there was some personalisation these need to be redone

2.0 Manuel update the index.html in server root data/<serverOrigin>/index.html edit common/js/index-buttons.js to index-buttons.mjs

5.3.0

  • Support for webid-oidc with DPop tokens

5.3.0 Upgrade Notes

You may have a .db/oidc/op/provider.json file that was generated by an older version of node-solid-server, which may still specify "response_types_supported" without listing "id_token code". You can move this file out of the way and restart node-solid-server, it will be created again. See #1433 for more info.

5.0.0

  • Node versions greater than 8 are supported.
  • Changes to vocabulary use:
    • solid:inbox is deprecated in favour of ldp:inbox.
    • acl:defaultForNew is deprecated in favour of acl:default.
  • Terms of Service may be added and enforced for new registrations, but is disabled by default.
  • DELETE operations on a resource now require that the user has write permissions on the file's container
  • Improved support for logout ensures users can use different identities.
  • The profile container is now public readable by default.
  • Access Control:
    • The Access Control List system has undergone extensive changes. Security has been tightened, and some unsafe practices that where web apps was authorized access in the past are now not permitted.
    • The browser-reported Origin header will now be checked by default, and the ACL system can be used to restrict access to applications for added security.
    • Users can add trustedApp entries to their profile using a new databrowser pane. You will see an 'A' icon added while you view a Person's profile URL with the data browser (might have to hit refresh in your browser and make sure you are viewing a WebId URL like https://localhost:8443/profile/card#me).
  • Logging is now verbose by default so the -v option has been removed and a --quiet option has been added to mute the log.
  • To be bug compliant with 4.x releases, if a rule for public readable root / does not exist, it will check in /index.html.acl (see issue #1063)
  • Command line options are now kebab-cased rather than camelCased, config options may be both.
  • Resource with no extension now have '$.ttl' appended in the filename (see upgrades notes below).
  • Many smaller fixes.

5.0.0 Upgrade Notes

  • As of v5.0.0, all Turtle files need an extension. (Intervention needed when updating from < 5.0.0!)
    • How to upgrade?
      1. Stop the server.
      2. Update node-solid-server to 5.0.0.
      3. Make a backup of your data/ and config/ folders.
      4. Invoke solid migrate-legacy-resources -v. This makes the files in your data/ and config/ folders automatically compatible with the new system. You only need to do this once. Different data folders can be migrated as well with the -p option: solid migrate-legacy-resources -p my/custom/data/folder -v
      5. You can now start the server again as usual.
    • Why? Before version 5.0.0, https://pod.example/profile/card would map to file:///solid/profile/card, with the assumption that it uses content-type text/turtle. Now, this URL will map to file:///solid/profile/card$.ttl instead, which makes the content-type automatically detectable. This fixes many of the old Content-Type-related bugs. More information: https://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/HTTPFilenameMapping.html

4.4.0

  • Introduce a quota system. Delete the /settings/serverSide.ttl in the user's POD to disable, or edit to fit your resource constraints.

Changelog is incomplete for much of the 4.x series

4.1.0

  • Add support for Group Access Control Lists.
  • Fix Vary header.
  • Improve the registration page.
  • Fix globbing.
  • Fix the use of allow handler.
  • Misc. cleanups and improvements.
  • Add .well-known folder and set up with public access.

4.0.0

  • OIDC is now supported as authentication method in addition to WebID-TLS.
  • Both Node.js 6 and 8 are now supported.
  • The server now accepts N3 patches.
  • Responses now contain a WAC-Allow header, listing the access permissions for the current user and non-authenticated users.
  • The authProxy configuration parameter has been added, enabling back-end servers to serve authenticated content. It accepts an object of path/server pairs (such as /my/path": "http://localhost:2345/app"). The Solid server acts as a reverse proxy for these paths, forwarding requests to the back-end server along with the authenticated user (User header) and the host through which Solid is being accessed (Forwarded header).
  • The acceptCertificateHeader configuration parameter has been added. This allows WebID-TLS authentication behind a reverse proxy such as NGINX: the reverse proxy should be configured to pass the client certificate in a certain header, which is then read by a (non-public) Solid server.
  • Self-signed certificates are no longer trusted in production. To allow self-signed certificates (for testing purposes), use bin/solid-test, which sets NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0 and --no-reject-unauthorized.
  • On POST requests, an extension will be appended to the file.
  • Server logging is now more concise.
  • Express server injection is now supported
  • The root route (e.g. /) now displays a public home page.
  • Several other bugfixes

4.0.0 Upgrade Notes

  • The proxy configuration parameter has been deprecated and renamed to corsProxy to better distinguish it from authProxy.
  • The idp configuration parameter has been deprecated and renamed to multiuser to better identify its purpose.
  • Cross-domain cookie-based authentication has been removed for security reasons. We instead recommend https://github.com/solid/solid-auth-client.
  • Clients should not include an extension in the slug of POST requests (they never should have), as the server now adds an extension.

3.5.0

  • Major refactoring of Account Creation classes (new account resources are now initialized from a customizable account directory template)
  • Disable crashing verifyDelegator() code in allow() handler
  • Add support for HTTP COPY of external resources
  • Fix URI encoding in file listing and decoding to get file names
  • Fix issue where requesting a different format (e.g. text/turtle) of a JSON-LD resource crashed the server

3.5.0 Upgrade Notes

  • New config parameter: serverUri - Solid server uri (with protocol, hostname and port), defaults to https://localhost:8443. In multi-user ("idp": true) mode, new account directories are now created based on this serverUri parameter. For example, if the config.json contains the entry "serverUri": "https://example.com", a new account for alice will create a subdirectory alice.example.com in the directory specified by the root config parameter.
  • New account template system. On first server startup, the contents of the default-account-template source folder get copied to config/account-template. When a new account is created, a copy is made of that new account template directory for the user. Server operators can customize the contents of this new account template for their server installation.
  • Email template system. Similarly to the new account template, the Welcome email that gets sent out on new user registration is generated from the customizable local config/email-templates/welcome.js template file, which gets copied from default-email-templates source folder on first startup.

3.4.0
