[v4.6.0] - unreleased

Changed

  • Answer hashes are now the first 4 characters of the hex-encoded SHA1 digest
  • Reworked the built-in theme
  • Devel mode no longer accepts an empty team ID
  • messages.html moved into theme

Added

  • moth.mjs is now the standard MOTH library for ECMAScript
  • Exported state now includes "Enabled" boolean
  • New Extra field on puzzles will allow arbitrary metadata on puzzles. PNNL's SCTR Osprey will use this to standardize fields for their custom theme, but it can be generally used for anything.

[v4.4.11] - 2023-04-11

Changed

  • CI/CD now builds tags

  • hours.txt parsing logs more verbosely
  • Participant IDs are no longer used anywhere
  • A few changes to CI/CD test reporting

[v4.4.9] - 2022-05-12

Changed

  • Added a performance optimization for events with a large number of teams backed by NFS

[v4.4.8] - 2022-05-10

Changed

  • You can now join with a team ID not appearing in teamids.txt, as long as it is registered (in the teams/ directory)

[v4.4.7] - 2022-05-10

Changed

  • Initializing an instance now truncates events.csv

[v4.4.6] - 2021-10-26

Added

  • State is now cached in memory, in an attempt to reduce filesystem metadata operations, which kill NFS.

[v4.4.5] - 2021-10-26

Added

  • Images deploying to docker hub too. We're now at capacity for our Docker Hub team.

[v4.4.4] - 2021-10-20

Changed

  • Trying to get CI push of built images. I expect this to fail, too. But in a way that can help me debug the issue.

[v4.3.3] - 2021-10-20

Fixed

  • Points awarded while scoring is paused are now correctly sorted (#168)
  • Writing a new mothball with the same name is now detected and the new mothball loaded (#172)
  • Regression test for issue where URL path leading directories were ignored (#144)
  • A few other very minor bugs were closed when I couldn't reproduce them or decided they weren't actually bugs.

Changed

  • Many error messages were changed to start with a lower-case letter, in order to satisfy a new linter check.
  • CI/CD moved to our Cyber Fire Gitlab instance
  • I attempted to have the build thingy automatically build moth:v4 and moth:v4.3 and moth:v4.3.3 images, but I can't test it without tagging a release. So v4.3.4 might come out very soon after this ;)

[v4.2.2] - 2021-09-30

Added

  • debug.notes front matter field

[v4.2.1] - 2021-04-13

Fixed

Changed

  • example/5/draggable.js fix for FireFox to prevent dropping a draggable trying to load a URL
  • transpile arguments now work the same way for the transpile binary as they do for mkpuzzle
  • transpile inventory does what you expect: inventory of current category, not inventory of all categories

Removed

Fixed

  • transpile will now run mkcategory and mkpuzzle when invoked without -dir

[v4.1.1] - 2020-03-02

Removed

  • ppc64le and i386 builds of github, because ppc64le keep failing mysteriously, and we don't need them anyhow.

[v4.1.0] - 2020-03-02

Added

  • transpile now has a markdown command, so you can use the "stock" markdown formatter

Changed

  • event.log is now events.csv, to make it easier to import to a spreadsheet
  • When in devel mode, any team ID may score points. This allows more interaction with the state directory.
  • When in devel mode, any team ID may be registered. It still works the same way if you register a team in teamids.txt, but now you can use anything and it will put you on an already existing team named <devel:$ID>.
  • switched from blackfriday to goldmark, to support CommonMark
  • puzzle.jsonno longer has Pre and Post sections

Removed

    • Clear separation of roles: State, Puzzles, and Theme

Security

[v3.5.1] - 2020-03-16

Fixed

  • Support insta-checking for legacy puzzles

[v3.5.0] - 2020-03-13

Changed

  • We are now using SHA256 instead of djb2hash

Added

  • add_script_stream convenience function allows easy script addition to puzzle
  • Autobuild Docker images to test buildability
  • Extract and use X-Forwarded-For headers in mothd logging
  • Mothballs can now specify X-Answer-Pattern header fields, which allow * at the beginning, end, or both, of an answer. This is X- because we are hoping to change how this works in the future.
