OWS release 1.8.17
Urgent bug-fix release to address a WCS bug.
This release also contains a couple of minor backwards compatibility issues, see below for details.
Version 1.8.18 will probably follow fairly rapidly as there are a couple of other known issues that are actively being worked on, see below for details.
Changes:
- Cleanup/refactor of styles package: docstrings, type-hints, cleanup and improved test coverage (#695)
- Change default behaviour of
$AWS_NO_SIGN_REQUEST
to match the standard default behaviour for boto3-based applications (#696) - Fix WCS queries against layers with a flag-band in the main product (#699)
- Increment version number (#700)
Backward Incompatibilities
- #695 removed support for some legacy legend config formats that have been deprecated (and undocumented) for over a year.
- #696 changes the default behaviour if
$AWS_NO_SIGN_REQUEST
is not set. Previously the default behaviour was unsigned requests, it is now signed requests. This was a necessary first-step to supporting dynamic credentials for S3 access, and brings OWS into line with other software using boto3 for S3 access.
Known Issues
- There are still issues with WCS queries against layers with a flag-band in the main product. These will be addressed in the next release and should not effect queries generated by the Terria Export function.
- Dynamic credentialling for S3 access is still problematic. We have a PR almost ready to merge (#697) but it needs further testing.
