  • Encryption key update

  • WMS Legend generation config update

    • It's now possible to specify additional tokens that need to be included in the URL sent to a WMS server just for GetLegend requests. Previously you could only specify one set of tokens and they were sent on every request.

  • SAML Authentication

    • Support for authenticating using SAML has been added. This provides support for Microsoft AD FS and Azure AD amongst others.

  • New whoami request

    • You can open the URL /weave/whoami to get information about who the server thinks you are, which is useful to debug login, role and ACL related issues

  • Dynamic configuration variables

    • Variables in config files set by using the "set" instruction are now dynamic (i.e. their value can be changed when the config files are being processed). Previously the values were fixed, with the last value set when processing the config files, being the one that was used. You can set the system property "weave.config.variables.dynamic" to false to restore the previous static variable handling.

  • Updated Geometry Simplification API

    • An internal API used for simplifying geometry has been enhanced to provide more control over the simplification process

  • Geometry REST API update

    • The /geometry/transform/point endpoint has been updated to be more lenient with missing parameters and more strict with required parameters

  • Admin UI Spatial Engines Tool update

    • The tool now provides filtering for spatial engine layers based on their name

  • Data API update

    • The Java Data API now allows some formatting to be provided as functions, not just from a pre-defined set of options. This includes dates and times, URL's and boolean values.

  • EPSG update

    • The EPSG database has been updated to version 9.9, from 9.7

  • SQL Server spatial engine update

    • The SQL Server config now accepts a "URL" parameter, to allow specifying the full connection URL, rather than having the URL constructed from other config parameters

  • Third-party library updates

    • A number of third-party libraries have been updated to newer versions

  • Bookmark improvements when switching projections

    • The bookmarks are smarter about reprojecting redlines and extents when a bookmark is saved in one projection but loaded on a client in another projection.

  • User attributes in client config

    • It’s now possible to reference users attributes in a client config to customise a client for individual users

    • For example: <initial minx=”${user.extent.initial.minx}” miny=”${user.extent.initial.miny}” maxx=”${user.extent.initial.maxx}” maxy=”${user.extent.initial.maxy}” crs=”${user.extent.initial.crs}”/>

    • You need to create and configure user attributes separately (the example above will not work out of the box)
