• [cds@3.31.2] cds serve foo.cds does no longer load same model twice
• [cds@3.31.2] cds compile --to edmx no longer creates files with csn instead of edmx content in case no language bundles are found
• [cds@3.31.2] Both cds env and cds compile no longer write terminal escape sequences if only stdout is redirected, but not stderr.
• [cds@3.31.2] No longer enforce Node.js version 8 in db/package.json. Cloud Foundry environment does not support it anymore, as this version is out of maintenance.

Removed

January & February 2020

Added

• [cds-compiler@1.23.2] If an entity with localized elements is draft enabled, a new key element ID_texts is added to the texts entity in --beta-mode. The key property is removed from all other elements in the texts entity and the annotation assignment @cds.odata.v4.ignore as described in Version 1.20.0 is reverted. If the element ID_texts already exists, an appropriate warning is raised and no texts entity is created.
• [cds-compiler@1.23.0] Introduce ![identifier body] in the CDL source for delimited identifiers. (The ! is inspired by ABAP’s identifier tag, [] by the delimited identifier syntax in Microsoft SQL Server and Sybase; we cannot use [] alone, because brackets are used for filter conditions.)
• [cds-compiler@1.23.0] When generating SQL or HDBVIEW, explicit CASTs are now rendered
• [cds-compiler@1.22.0] With redirected to, model designers can now explicitly provide the on condition / foreign keys for “consumers” of the current query (entity). This is useful for situations (usually mentioned as message) where the compiler does not calculate on/keys (automatically yet).
• [cds-compiler@1.22.0] Add OData vocabularies: com.sap.vocabularies.CodeList.v1, Org.OData.Repeatability.V1 and com.sap.vocabularies.Session.v1
• [cds-lsp@3.1.3] pick up compiler and env via global cds-dk if cds not (yet) in project
• [cds-lsp@3.1.2] code formatting
  • options can now be overridden in source comments e.g. // @formatter tabSize:3
  • new option to add/remove final line break
  • new option to trim trailing whitespace
• [cds-lsp@3.1.1] code formatting
  • option to keep original empty lines
• [cds-lsp@3.1.1] language server protocol 3.15: implement serverInfo in onInitialize
• [cds-lsp@3.1.0] translation support
  • now with all formats supported by runtime (.properties, .json, .csv) incl. quick fixes to create missing entries
  • now with customizations supported by runtime (filename, folder name, fallback_bundle, default_language)
    • if entries of fallback language are missing but are defined for default language the latter ones are used
    • if property files or json nodes or csv header only has default language defined (and not raw), quick fix will use default language
    • quick fix for json and csv formats now try to keep entries sorted
    • navigation from translation reference in cds source files to value supported for all formats
• [cds-lsp@3.1.0] allow .cdsprettier.json to be located in user home dir
• [cds-lsp@3.0.0] Official support for code formatting
• [cap.java@1.3.0] Support setting the “target” property in OData V4 error messages to influence the way a Fiori UI displays them.
• [cap.java@1.3.0] Support temporal data
• [cap.java@1.3.0] Support expand for associations pointing to other draft-enabled entities
• [cap.java@1.3.0] Support case-insensitive ordering via OData V4 query option $orderby by using tolower() or toupper() functions, e.g. $orderby=tolower(element)
• [cap.java@1.3.0] The Maven Archetype now allows to omit local cds-dk installation by means of maven profile “cdsdk-global”
• [cap.java@1.2.0] Support returning messages by means of the “sap-messages” header that are shown in Fiori UIs
• [cap.java@1.2.0] Support returning multiple messages in a single response
• [cap.java@1.2.0] Support returning localized messages
• [cap.java@1.2.0] Support searching entities by means of the OData V4 $search query option (including search expressions AND, OR and NOT)

• [cap.java@1.2.0] Support the $format parameter for JSON based formats
• [cap.java@1.2.0] Support associations between draft-enabled entities, enabling also path expressions to the inactive entity via the active entity and vice versa.
• [cds@3.31.0] Generation of hdbtabledata files now reports if CSV file names don’t match entity names, and if header names don’t match element names in an entity. Watch out for such logs in case CSV files are not deployed to SAP HANA.
• [cds@3.30.0] cds compile --log-level allows to choose which messages to see
• [cds@3.30.0] cds deploy --dry prints DDL statements to stdout instead of executing them
• [cds@3.30.0] cds deploy --with-mocks also adds tables for required services
• [cds@3.30.0] cds serve --mocked allows mocking individual required services
• [cds@3.30.0] cds.env now also loads from .env files in properties format
• [cds@3.30.0] cds.resolve/load('*') resolves or loads all models in a project including those for required services. It is controlled and configurable through cds.env.folders and .roots. Try this in cds repl launched from your project root to see that in action:

    cds.env.folders         // = folders db, srv, app by default
    cds.env.roots           // + schema and services in cwd
    cds.resolve('*',false)  // + models in cds.env.requires
    cds.resolve('*')        // > the resolved existing files
  

• [cds@3.30.0] Added cds.debug(<id>) as a convenient helper for debug output controlled by process.env.DEBUG. For example, use it as follows:

    const DEBUG = cds.debug('my-module')
    DEBUG && DEBUG ('my debug info:', foo, ...)
  

    > DEBUG=my-module cds run
  

• [cds@3.30.0] Added cds.error(<msg>) as a convenient helper for throwing errors whose stack traces start from the actual point of invocation. For example, use it as follows:

    const {error} = cds
    if (...) throw error `Something's wrong with ${whatever}`
    const foo = bar || error `Bar is missing!` // short circuit exits

Changed

• [cds-compiler@1.23.2] Association to Join Transformation:
  • Validate paths of an expression in the projection to be compliant with the ON condition path constraints if such an expression is used in a mixin.
  • Reject recursive or non-bijective $self expressions.
• [cds-compiler@1.23.2] Reject casting of a structured select item to a different type.
• [cds-compiler@1.23.2] OData: Update vocabularies Capabilities, Common, UI, Validation
• [cds-compiler@1.23.1] OData:
  • Lower message for unknown vocabulary annotations from warning to info.
  • Lower message for @Analytics.Measure expects @Aggregation.default from warning to info.
  • Remove empty EntityContainer and raise warning if Schema is empty.
• [cds-compiler@1.23.0] Signal a warning for all uses of "identifier body" in the CDL source, as most uses of double-quotes in actual CDS models were likely meant for strings. (Yes, we do not adhere strictly to the lexical rules of the SQL Standard with this change…)
• [cds-compiler@1.23.0] Issue a warning for an aspect definition without {…}.
• [cds-compiler@1.23.0] In the CSN, aspect definitions have a $syntax property with value "aspect". A future incompatible change will set the kind of aspect definitions to value "aspect".
• [cds-compiler@1.23.0] Removed old CSN frontend and the corresponding options: stdJsonParser and oldCsnFrontend.
• [cds-compiler@1.23.0] Fix check for arguments and filters in references (might introduce new errors).
• [cds-compiler@1.23.0] Issue an error if explicit keys are provided when redirecting unmanaged associations.
• [cds-compiler@1.23.0] File paths given to cdsc which contain symbolic links are now resolved before being passed to the compiler.
• [cds-compiler@1.23.0] Annotating elements with @Core.Computed now always overwrites computed value; also expressions in parentheses will now induce to set @Core.Computed to true.
• [cds-compiler@1.23.0] Update OData vocabulary UI
• [cds-compiler@1.23.0] Increase the length of the element locale in generated _texts entities from String(5) to String(14).
• [cds-compiler@1.23.0] Do not overwrite annotations with generated annotations (such as shortcuts and other convenience annotations).
• [cds-compiler@1.22.0] In the sql, hdi and hdbcds backends with SQL dialect HANA, $user.id is translated to SESSION_CONTEXT('APPLICATIONUSER'), not SESSION_CONTEXT('XS_APPLICATIONUSER') anymore. As with the SQL dialect SQLite, it can now be configured.
• [cds-compiler@1.22.0] The client tool cdsc now prints a source excerpt for each message by default; use cdsc --no-message-context to get the previous behavior.
• [cds-compiler@1.22.0] Increase severity to Warning of messages for a situation where the compiler cannot calculate an on condition / foreign keys automatically.
• [cds-compiler@1.22.0] Issues warnings for annotation definitions, as their CSN representation will be moved from definitions into an new property vocabularies in a future change.
• [cds-compiler@1.22.0] OData:
  • Update vocabularies: Analytics, Common, Communication, Core, PersonalData, UI
  • Set reference base URI for SAP Vocabularies to https://sap.github.io/odata-vocabularies/vocabularies

  • changed label indicator for snippets from <> to ellipsis
• [cds-lsp@3.0.0] consume cds-compiler 1.21.1
• [cds-lsp@3.0.0] code formatting
  • rework formatting options: add/remove options according to relevance, rename/group options for clarity, change default behavior in some cases
  • various improvements, including in case statements and bracketed conditions
• [cap.java@1.3.0] The XSUAA service configuration is now only enabled, when an XSUAA service binding is available. With this change we do not prevent Spring from configuring it’s default security config and default user anymore.
• [cap.java@1.3.0] The Spring Boot Plugin in applications generated by the archetype now generates the executable JAR with classifier “exec”
• [cap.java@1.2.0] Timestamps are now written to the database in UTC instead of the timezone of the application.
• [cap.java@1.2.0] Changed incorrect http status 400 Bad Request to 404 Not Found for requests targeting a non-existing entity
• [cds@3.30.0] This version brings a major refactoring and streamlining of service runtime implementations, which stays fully compatible regarding all documented APIs but in case you used internal not documented (non-)APIs, you should know these:
  • Removed undocumented features Annotation @source from models loaded for runtime Property cds.serve.app → use cds.app instead Property source from CSN entity/view definition objects

    It’s very unlikely that you ever used these undocumented internal features at all. In case you did, this should never have been done and you should fix that asap.

• [cds@3.30.0] Deprecated features (→ might get removed in upcoming versions)
  • Property cds.session → use cds.db instead
  • Property cds.options → use cds.db.options instead
  • Property cds.unfold → use cds.compile instead
  • Property cds.config → use cds.env instead

    These properties actually were duplicates to the mentioned alternatives.

• [cds@3.30.0] cds run and cds watch have been re-implemented as convenience shortcuts to cds serve, which acts as the central orchestrator for bootstrapping now. (→ see cds run ? or cds watch ? to learn more)
• [cds@3.30.0] cds serve now optionally bootstraps from project-local ./server.js or ./srv/server.js, if exist, thus giving more control while still benefitting from cds serve’s intrinsic support for options like --in-memory or --with-mocks.
• [cds@3.30.0] cds serve now uses cds.load('*') to load a single effective model once, assigned to cds.model, and reused for db as well as all provided and required services . As that avoids loading models redundantly, it drastically improves both, bootstrapping performance as well as memory consumption.
• [cds@3.30.0] cds deploy does not (have to) register the default models to package.json anymore. For example, unlike before, cds deploy -2 sqlite will merely add an entry: db:{kind:'sqlite'}, without an additional model property anymore.
• [cds@3.30.0] cds deploy --to hana does not create connection.properties file any longer, but only modify existing one
• [cds@3.30.0] modifiedAt and modifiedBy from @sap/cds/common
  • Are now mutable for OData, i.e. no longer carry the @Core.Immutable: true annotation.
  • Are set by the Node.js runtime whenever the respective row was modified, i.e. also during CREATE operations.
• [cds@3.30.0] Support for cds init is now moved to @sap/cds-dk.
• [cds@3.21.0] In development mode, the mock authorization strategy is automatically activated with two fake users alice and bob, which allows for out-of-the-box testing of @requires annotations. This means that, unlike before, the JWT authorization strategy needs to be activated explicitly (through {auth: { passport: { strategy: 'mock' }}}. In production, no change is required.
• [cds@3.21.0] You might see a MODULE_NOT_FOUND error for @sap/xsenv in case you use the JWT strategy but have not bound any xsuaa service. In this case either bind such a service instance, add the @sap/xsenv dependency, or use a different strategy like mock. The trigger of this error is @sap/xssec 2.2.4 no longer requiring @sap/xsenv.
• [cds@3.21.0] Renovated and streamlined cds init. It prints a hint now if it’s called with old-style parameters, as well as that it wants to be used from @sap/cds-dk. Check out cds help init for more.
• [cds@3.21.0] Removed the experimental --args parameter of cds compile. This turned out to be cumbersome to use in shells. Replacement is the standard configuration mechanism, e.g. use an environment variable CDS_FOO_BAR to activate option cds.foo.bar.
• [cds-dk@1.6.0] cds add mta now creates resources for SAP HANA with an explicit service type hana. If deploying to trial landscapes, this needs to be changed manually to hanatrial.
• [cds-dk@1.5.0] cds init only supports new syntax. See cds init help for more info.
• [cds-dk@1.5.0] cds init now supports adding template hana to Java projects.
• [cds-services@1.25.0] use odata-server 1.5.2
• [cds-services@1.24.0] use odata-server 1.5.1

• [cds-rest@1.4.0] Version of @sap/cloud-sdk-util pinned to 1.15.1
• [cds-sql@1.23.0] Convert all search queries using contains to like
• [cds-sql@1.22.0] Managed fields are not removed anymore if they dont belong to operation (e.g. modifiedAt in INSERT, createdAt in UPDATE)
• [cds-sql@1.22.0] null is a valid value for a managed field (e. g. if null is provided for @cds.on.insert, null will be inserted to DB)
• [cds-hana@1.23.0] Use like instead of contains fuzzy search for $search queries
• [cds-hana@1.22.0] SESSION_CONTEXT(‘APPLICATIONUSER’) instead of SESSION_CONTEXT(‘XS_APPLICATIONUSER’)
• [cds-hana@1.22.0] @sap/hana-client is preferred over hdb

Fixed

• [cds-compiler@1.23.0] Automatically calculate keys also for published secondary managed associations, i.e., associations in a select column which is reached by following another association. The compiler doest not yet calculate the on condition of published secondary unmanaged associations – provide it explicitly.

• [cds-lsp@3.1.0] in the past file changes via watcher were automatically sent for all files in VSCode. In recent versions of VSCode this has changed to only sent files supported by language server type (cds). A fix was made to dynamically register for relevant side-files like package.json, .cdsrc.json, all supported translation file formats, ignore files to keep track of changed environment
• [cds-lsp@3.0.0] code formatting
  • fix alignment of annotations in views
  • safely identify unreserved keywords
• [cap.java@1.3.0] Handle more timestamp formats on SQLite-based databases: This fixes interoperability issues with cds deploy and the Node.js stack. The suggested timestamp format to be used in CSVs is ISO 8601 (2020-02-05T07:43:40Z)

• [cds@3.31.0] cds build/all adds app folder to the list of model folders for hana database builds. Draft tables are missing if the corresponding annotation model is missing.
• [cds@3.30.0] There was a bug in that caused a service names FooBarV2 to erroneously be mapped to mount point /foo-barv2 instead of /foo-bar-v2 as intended and was the case before. → in case you started a project in this interims phase and had a service name with that pattern you may encounter this fix as an incompatible change, but it’s actually reverting to the former compatible way.
