Important Updates

2.23.0

• Integration with Kastela

2.22.0

• Migration process for database migration from sqlite to text file is removed

2.21.20

• Fix: utils.resolveAssetPath.
• Fix: unwanted config mutation during redis cache initialization.
• Fix: database transaction on destroy record

2.21.12

• The timeout (in seconds) on Mutex locking attempt can be adjusted via MUTEX_ATTEMPT_TIMEOUT

2.21.10

• RPC across node process is available via ctx.moco.rpc. This would be helpful for communicating with any service that only available on master process only.
• All database migrations are tracked on migrations/data.txt. Please run the project once on your laptop to ensure data migration from old db.sqlite. The migration between sqlite to plain will be removed on 2.22.0.
• Distributed mutex (based on redlock) is currently available via let myMutex = await ctx.moco.mutex(key,ttl). It is also possible to extend ttl via myMutex = myMutex.extend(newTtl). Releasing mutex can be done via await myMutex.unlock().
• Typescript user is now able to add type on custom script context via Generic.

import SDK from "@mocobaas/server-sdk";
import moment from "moment";

interface IData {
  id: string;
  challenge: string;
  expire: number;
  digest: string;
}

async function handler(ctx: SDK.EventContext<IData>) {
  const mutex = await ctx.moco.mutex(id, 3000);
  const { id, expire, ...others } = ctx.data; // data shall follow IData interface
  await ctx.moco.cache.set(id, { id, ...others }, expire);
  await mutex.unlock();
}

module.exports = handler;

2.20.12

• Auth: DENY_CONCURRENT_LOGINS also accepts a list of user roles, e.g. DENY_CONCURRENT_LOGINS="Content Creator,Publisher,Reader". If user has any of those roles, they won't be able to do concurrent logins.

2.20.8

• Auth: Use DENY_CONCURRENT_LOGINS=1 to deny concurrent logins of a user (like on multiple devices).
• ctx.moco.utils.revokeAllAccess()

2.20.5

• Google Sign-in: Auto-link existing account on Register.

2.20.1

• ⚠️ Breaking Change: When anti-tamper is enabled (NODE_ENV = production or FORCE_INTEGRITY_CHECK = 1), deploy your project with mbaas-signer-cli 1.7.0.

wget --header="DEPLOY-TOKEN: your-deploy-token" https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/24382748/packages/generic/mbaas-signer-cli/1.7.0/mbaas-signer_1.7.0_linux_amd64.tar.gz -O - | tar -xzvf -

2.19.0

• You may run custom codes during boot process via boot.js file. Use masterEntry function to execute code once in the master process, and use workerEntry function to execute code once in each worker.

2.18.0

• Automatic restart MBaaS after disconnected from database. You need to change in main code (server.js) from require("@mocobaas/server-sdk")(); to require("@mocobaas/server-sdk/src/eternal")();

2.17.5

• Change default timeout for inter-service communication to 1 minute (60s). You can still customize it by setting SERVICERPC_TIMEOUT or PUBSUBRPC_TIMEOUT variable.
• Better timeout error message, e.g. "rpc - fwdcall Connection timed out @ 1m0s while awaiting reply".

2.17.3

• Redis: Support using TLS (e.g. config.cache.tls = true).

2.17.2

• Fix: Database SSL configuration.

2.17.0

⚠️ Security Fixes:

• GraphQL Introspection: (1) On NODE_ENV = production, it is denied by default. Use ALLOW_GRAPHQL_INTROSPECTION=1 to allow it. (2) On any other NODE_ENV, it is allowed by default. Use ALLOW_GRAPHQL_INTROSPECTION=0 to deny it.
• Rate Limit Logger: Logs every time the limit is reached, prefixed with "TMREQ". Please set logging.level to info or above to enable this feature.
• Encryption Failure Logger: Logs every 5 failure attempts within 10 seconds, prefixed with "E2EEFAIL". Please set logging.level to info or above to enable this feature.

🚀 New Features:

• Auto Scaling based on Backpressure Metering.

2.16.1

• Configurable Check Email API rate limiter (production only): (1) You can set ALLOW_CHECK_EMAIL=true to enable API with the default limiter, 1 req/min. (2) Or you can use any integer values to enable API with custom limiter, e.g. ALLOW_CHECK_EMAIL=5000 means 5000 req/min.

2.16.0

• ⚠️ Breaking Change: On Linux, glibc >= 2.27 is needed (ldd --version to check version). We recommend to use this docker image:
  1. node:12-bullseye
  2. node:12-bullseye-slim
  3. node:14-bullseye
  4. node:14-bullseye-slim
• Use PWDCHANGE_AUTO_LOGOUT=1 to logout user on password change.
• If you want to run additional tasks when user change his/her password, use this event trigger: { "entity": "auth", "queue": "passwordChanged" }.
• Fix: ctx.moco.mqtt typings.
• Fix: Some ctx.moco methods were unavailable on non-HTTP custom scripts.

2.15.13

• Fix: Payload character encoding.

2.15.0

⚠️ Security Fixes:

• These APIs will not inform whether the specified email is valid or not: Login (local), Resend Verification, Forgot Password.
• Check Email API is now unavailable by default. Use ALLOW_CHECK_EMAIL=true to allow accessing it.
• On NODE_ENV = production, Check Email API is guarded by a special rate limiter: 1 request per minute for each IP address.

🚀 New Features:

• OpenTelemetry is available for tracing custom scripts via require("@mocobaas/server-sdk").tracing.
• Use initChildSpan to generate span object and nestedSpanClosure wrapper.

const { initChildSpan, otel } = require("@mocobaas/server-sdk").tracing;
//
const { span, nestedSpanClosure } = initChildSpan(`[func] function name`, {
  attributes: {
    attr1: "demo",
    // attributes
  },
});
await nestedSpanClosure(async () => {
  try {
    await doSomething();
    span.setStatus({ code: otel.SpanStatusCode.OK });
  } catch (error) {
    span.setStatus({
      code: otel.SpanStatusCode.ERROR,
      message: error.message,
    });
  } finally {
    span.end();
  }
});

2.0.0

• Binary: As a part of transitioning into the compiled MBaaS codes, it downloads and runs some executable binaries for your current platform/operating system alongside with the Node.js process. And they all communicate each other via Redis Pub/Sub during Server operation.
• Anti-tamper: On NODE_ENV = production, MBaaS will perform an integrity check on custom scripts at boot time. The server will run normally only if the check passed.
• Auth: Uses Argon2 key derivation function when inserting/updating user's password, while still maintaining backward compatibility when verifying existing passwords.
• Auth: When Server starts, you will see a short Argon2 benchmark in your console. For the best balance between security and performance, it is recommended to have between 0.05 and 0.5 seconds hash timing (elapsed). Please set authResources.argon2MemoryCost to a certain number until you get a good timing. The result depends on your hardware resources.
• Auth: Implements refresh token protection, similar to that in IDFS (see v1.41.0).
• Auth: To better assist Client on the exact/unambiguous timing for refresh access and relogin user, Server provides these responses: (1) Invalid Access Token = HTTP Status 401 and error code IVACC = it is time to refresh access. (2) Invalid Refresh Token = HTTP Status 401 and error code IVREF = it is time to relogin user.
• Auth Events: User registration and email verification now trigger auth events, which can be handled by your custom scripts.
• Sign-in with Apple ID (see MocoBaaS Manual for the detailed explanation).
• Keycloak support: Replaces IDFS as the identity provider.
• HTTP Logger: A new module for logging HTTP requests and responses. Please set logging.level to http or above to enable this module.
• Custom Script: All methods in ctx.moco.utils now return Promise.

1.41.6

• Another case-insensitive on checking email. Affected endpoints: "POST /services/auth/account".

1.41.0

• IDFS: It is possible that refresh tokens being stolen by malicious actors. To stop any misuse of access, when a refresh token is reused, it will revoke the whole token chain (grant). Meaning that the active refresh token will be invalid and the active access token(s) will also be invalid. The user will have to reauthorize.

1.40.0

• Case-insensitive on checking email. Affected endpoints: "POST /services/auth", "DELETE /services/auth", "GET /services/auth/account", "POST /services/emailverification".
