Changelog

All notable changes to this project are documented in this file.

1.32.0

Release date: 2023-07-14

This release adds support for suspending a Canary using .spec.suspend. It also fixes a bug where the target deployment gets stuck at 0 replicas after the Canary has been deleted. Furthermore, the Canary API has been modified to allow specifying the HTTPRoute port using .service.gatewayRefs[].port.

Improvements

  • Helm: Add option to create service and serviceMonitor #1425
  • Update Alpine to 3.18 #1426
  • Add spec.suspend to allow suspending canary #1431
  • Add support for istio LEAST_REQUEST destination rule load balancing #1439
  • Add gatewayRef port to Canary CRD #1453
  • feat: Copy slowStartConfig for Gloo upstreams #1455
  • Update Go dependencies #1459

Fixes

  • Resume target scaler during finalization #1429
  • Fix panic when annotation of ingress is empty #1437
  • Fixing namespace of HelmRepository in installation docs #1458

1.31.0

Release date: 2023-05-10

⚠️ Breaking Changes

This release adds support for Linkerd 2.12 and later. Due to changes in Linkerd the default namespace for Flagger's installation had to be changed from linkerd to flagger-system and the flagger Deployment is now injected with the Linkerd proxy. Furthermore, installing Flagger for Linkerd will result in the creation of an AuthorizationPolicy that allows access to the Prometheus instance in the linkerd-viz namespace. To upgrade your Flagger installation, please see the below migration guide.

If you use Kustomize, then follow these steps:

  • kubectl delete -n linkerd deploy/flagger

  • kubectl delete -n linkerd serviceaccount flagger

  • If you're on Linkerd >= 2.12, you'll need to install the SMI extension to enable support for TrafficSplits:

    curl -sL https://linkerd.github.io/linkerd-smi/install | sh
linkerd smi install | kubectl apply -f -

  • kubectl apply -k github.com/fluxcd/flagger//kustomize/linkerd

    Note: If you're on Linkerd < 2.12, this will report an error about missing CRDs. It is safe to ignore this error.

If you use Helm and are on Linkerd < 2.12, then you can use helm upgrade to do a regular upgrade.

If you use Helm and are on Linkerd >= 2.12, then follow these steps:

  • helm uninstall flagger -n linkerd
  • Install the Linkerd SMI extension: 
    helm repo add l5d-smi https://linkerd.github.io/linkerd-smi
helm install linkerd-smi l5d-smi/linkerd-smi -n linkerd-smi --create-namespace
  • Install Flagger in the flagger-system namespace and create an AuthorizationPolicy: 
    helm repo update flagger
helm install flagger flagger/flagger \
--namespace flagger-system \
--set meshProvider=linkerd \
--set metricsServer=http://prometheus.linkerd-viz:9090 \
--set linkerdAuthPolicy.create=true

Furthermore, a bug which led the confirm-rollout webhook to be executed at every step of the Canary instead of only being executed before the canary Deployment is scaled up, has been fixed.

Improvements

  • Add support for Linkerd 2.13 #1417

Fixes

  • Fix the loadtester install with flux documentation #1384
  • Run confirm-rollout checks only before scaling up deployment #1414
  • e2e: Remove OSM tests #1423

1.30.0

Furthermore, a bug where labels were wrongfully copied over from the canary deployment to primary deployment when no value was provided for --include-label-prefix has been fixed. This release also makes Flagger compatible with Flux's helm-controller drift detection.
