released this 25 Jun 22:01

Features:

  • Manage administrators from within the admin panel of the developer portal (#308, #358, #375)
    • Add users, remove users, and promote them to admins purely from a web interface in the admin panel
    • Invite users to see the panel
  • Users can generate Swagger/OpenAPI exports from the developer portal (#350)
    • Users can optionally include x-amazon-apigateway-integrations extensions, x-amazon-apigateway-authorizer extensions, or extensions for importing into Postman, and they can include any combination of the three
    • Users can export as either JSON or YAML, depending on their preference
  • External documentation fields are now consistently shown (#375)
    • External documentation descriptions are rendered as Markdown per Swagger spec
    • External documentation URLs are auto-linked
  • APIs managed by API Gateway are shown with their AWS stage names (#357, #375)
    • These are still called "APIs" from the developer portal, and no direct reference to the AWS concept of "stages" is made in the text

Fixes:

  • Update dependencies to fix npm audit warnings (#330, #375, commit fff3d74)
    • Also removed a few unnecessary dependencies - your deployment lambdas should be slightly smaller and load a little quicker
  • Optimize the catalog updater substantially and fix some client-side logic that further slowed the process down (#375)
    • Also added loading spinners for each relevant button in the admin panel
  • Fall back to available server endpoints for imported APIs that lack the optional host field (all Swagger 2 imports, some OpenAPI 3 imports), and omit it entirely if the fallback fails (#375)
  • The server-side 60-minute session timer is now reflected client-side as well, and it validates this against the client (#367)
  • The client now consistently waits for login before actually requesting certain data, to avoid certain client-side errors (#362)
  • Fix error handling in the backend to more rigorously report exceptions (#362, #375)
  • Fix static asset setup to properly copy images, to avoid encoding errors (#370)
  • Fix logo loading, to use proper keys (#362, #375)
  • Fix file upload iteration to not throw exceptions (#373)
  • Fix data issue with the APIs listing (#377)
  • Fix race condition with config in static asset uploader (#380)
  • Ensure all APIs are fetched in admin panel (#393)
  • Assorted visual, grammatical, and typographical fixes (#361, #390, #401, #402, #403, #404)
  • Assorted security fixes

Changes:

  • Marketplace subscription support is removed for now, as it's known broken (#410)
  • Update Node.js in the lambdas to 12 (#330)
  • Limit for API imports increased to 10MB to allow for larger imports (#359)
  • Update development setup scripts and related documentation for easier onboarding (#344, #380, #396)
    • Node 12 or later is now required to build the developer portal locally
  • Remove redundant subscribable/unsubscribable categories from admin panel (#362)
    • The core concept and the reasoning behind it is that you can only subscribe to APIs with usage plans (an invariant that already existed prior), and so the presence of a usage plan being assigned to it is what makes it subscribable
  • Streamline search to be a bit more intuitive to use, and simplify its results (#362)
  • Log errors much more consistently and regularly
  • Registration confirmation emails now include a link to the developer portal instance they were created for and a more informative email title to clarify its origin (#369)
  • Streamline the deployment process from source significantly for those who need deeper customization than what SAM/SAR alone allows (#380)
  • Cognito user pool settings have been updated
  • Cognito user pools are now retained post-deletion (#412)
  • Add config options to the development script side to fill out the rest of the SAM template functionality (#396)
