v0.18.0 Release

Schema

• MySQL schema upgrades: default database upgrade to 0.4, visibility upgrade to 0.3
• PostgreSQL schema upgrades: visibility upgrade to 0.3

Notes

• Allow using Kafka TLS without cert ca and key (#3862)
  EnableHostVerification started to be used for Kafka TLS, by default it’s false and which means InSecureSkipVerify is true for Kafka TLS. But previously InSecureSkipVerify is false. If you want to keep the same behavior, please update your config to set EnableHostVerification to be true. It won’t break anything if not doing so, but may be risky to not verify it. This option is basically the inverse of InSecureSkipVerify. See http://golang.org/pkg/crypto/tls/ for more info.

• Support visibility query with close status represented in string (#3865)
  Advanced workflow visibility record query syntax now supports using string as workflow close status. Accepted values are: COMPLETED, FAILED, CANCELED, TERMINATED, CONTINUED_AS_NEW and TIMED_OUT, case insensitive.
