What's new

These are the most important features you'll get by upgrading from 3.12.9 to 3.13.0

Octopus 3.13

Changes in 3.13

New Features

We are excited to announce that Octopus now includes first-class support for Deploying Azure Service Fabric applications.

New deployment steps include:

  • Deploying a Service Fabric App (learn more)
  • Running a Service Fabric SDK PowerShell Script (learn more)

You can also read our guide on Continuous Integration for Service Fabric.

Improvements

  • You can now enable HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)
  • You can now configure optional lifecycle phases
  • We have improved browser caching of expensive operations like loading the dashboard
  • The message on the deployment overview can now be customised, refer to failing a script with a message
  • You can now edit the state of a task from the task screen by providing the new task state and the reason for the change.
  • You can now configure channel-indexed version templates so you can use a consistent version scheme across channels

Breaking Changes

Please note there is a minor breaking change in this release around the show-configuration command. This will only affect customers who use the show-configuration command for things like automating Octopus Server installation and configuration.

Octopus.Storage.NodeName has been corrected to be Octopus.Server.NodeName.

See this GitHub Issue for more details.
