Changes

• [Improvement] Set EDXAPP_TEST_MONGO_HOST env var in the openedx-dev image so that it no longer needs to be set by hand when running edx-platform unit tests (by @kdmccormick).

• [Feature] Added -c or --clean option to tutor config save: For plugin developers and advanced users, this option cleans the env/ folder before saving, ensuring a fresh environment for testing and development. (by @CodeWithEmad)

Changes

• 💥[Feature] Upgrade default charset and collation of mysql to "utf8mb4" and "utf8mb4_unicode_ci" respectively. This upgrade should be automatic for most users. However, if you are running a third-party MySQL (i.e. RUN_MYSQL=false), you are expected to upgrade manually. Please refer to the third-party provider's documentation for detailed upgrade instructions. Ensuring that your MySQL version is up-to-date is crucial for maintaining compatibility and security.

Changes

• 💥[Feature] Upgrade to Redwood (by @DawoudSheraz)

• [Bugfix] Wrap Django5 warning imports in try-except block to avoid failures in django3 that's still in use in edx-platform's master branch (by @mariajgrimaldi).

• 💥[Feature] Pull translations via atlas during Docker build. This breaks the openedx-i18n custom locale Tutor feature in favor of OEP-58 in favor of https://github.com/openedx/openedx-translations. (by @OmarIthawi)

• 💥[Feature] The openedx-assets command is replaced with npm run subcommands. This will slightly reduce the build time for edx-platform assets and comprehensive themes. It will also open up the door for more significant build time reductions in the future. Here is a migration guide, where each command is to be run in the lms or cms container:

  Before	After
  openedx-assets build --env=prod ARGS	npm run build -- ARGS
  openedx-assets build --env=dev ARGS	npm run build-dev -- ARGS
  openedx-assets common --env=prod ARGS	npm run compile-sass -- --skip-themes ARGS
  openedx-assets common --env=dev ARGS	npm run compile-sass-dev -- --skip-themes ARGS
  openedx-assets webpack --env=prod ARGS	npm run webpack -- ARGS
  openedx-assets webpack --env=dev ARGS	npm run webpack-dev -- ARGS
  openedx-assets npm	npm run postinstall (npm clean-install runs this automatically)
  openedx-assets xmodule	(no longer necessary)
  openedx-assets collect ARGS	./manage.py lms collectstatic --noinput ARGS && ./manage.py cms collectstatic ARGS
  openedx-assets watch-themes ARGS	npm run watch-themes -- ARGS

For more details, see the deprecation notice for paver
and the static assets reference
in edx-platform.

• 💥[Feature] Update MongoDB to v7.0.7 (by @DawoudSheraz) MongoDB is upgraded from version 4.4 to 7.0. Since there have been major releases since 4.4, the upgrade will need to go through them before running Mongo 7. MongoDB would need to follow 4.4 --> 5.0 --> 6.0 --> 7.0 upgrade path to work correctly. The container will keep on restarting with featureCompatibility error if the upgrade path is not followed. To upgrade mongo, run the following command based in the appropriate environment:

  tutor <dev|local|k8s> upgrade --from=quince

For k8s only, the above command will not perform the upgrade automatically. Instead, the command will output a series of commands that would need to be run manually to carry out the upgrade.

• [Improvement] Upgrade Nodejs from 16.14.0 to 18.20.1 in edx-platform. (by @regisb)
• [Improvement] Auto-detect bind mounts of openedx-learning for edx-platform (by @bradenmacdonald)
• [Feature] Upgrade Open edX image to use Python 3.11 (by @DawoudSheraz)
• [Bugfix] Remove CORS_ALLOW_HEADERS setting from the LMS/Studio config template. This setting, which holds site-agnostic application logic, is now consistently set to a reasonable value upstream by LMS and CMS config. Using the upstream values fixes a bug where course import in Studio using the new Course Authoring MFE was broken in Tutor deployments because it required additional headers to be allowed (content-range and content-disposition) (by @ormsbee)
• [Improvement] Made Docker cache hits more frequent during the openedx image build via BuildKit's COPY --link feature (by @kdmccormick).
• 💥[Improvement] Upgrade MySQL to 8.4.0. The upgrade should be automatic for most users. However, if you are running a third-party MySQL (i.e., RUN_MYSQL=false), you are expected to upgrade manually. Please refer to the third-party provider's documentation for detailed upgrade instructions. Ensuring that your MySQL version is up-to-date is crucial for maintaining compatibility and security. (by @rohansaeed)
• 💥[Improvement] Ensure that the edx-platform repository git checkout is cached by Docker during image build. This means that the cache will automatically be cleared any time there is an upstream change. Thus, it is no longer necessary to run tutor images build --no-cache just to fetch the latest edx-platform changes. For this to work, any GitHub repository referenced by EDX_PLATFORM_REPOSITORY needs to end with ".git". Make sure that this is the case if you have modified the value of this setting in the past.

Changes

• [Feature] Introduces the IS_FILE_RENDERED Filter, which allows developers to specify files that should be copied directly without rendering. This update empowers developers to manage special file types, ensuring that they are transferred intact without undergoing template processing. (by @Abdul-Muqadim-Arbisoft)

• [Improvement] Remove the obsolete version property from all Docker Compose files and remove the DOCKER_COMPOSE_VERSION config setting. This addresses the deprecation warning from docker-compose (version 1.27 and above) regarding version being obsolete. (by @jasonmokk)

See the installation docs for more installation options and instructions.

Changes

• [Feature] Introduces the CONFIG_USER Filter. Used to declare unique key:value pairs in config.yml that will be overwritten when running tutor config save. Useful for injecting secrets from an external secrets manager into edx, or other values that may change over time that you need to programmatically fetch. (by @abonnell)

• [Improvement] Add ability to patch proxy configuration for Caddy (by @ravikhetani)

Changes

• 💥[Bugfix] Prevent infinite growth of course structure cache in Redis. (by @regisb)

• [Bugfix] Fix merge conflicts in nightly when trying to apply patches from the master branch. (by @regisb)
