v11.1.1

Released 3 August 2023 · GitHub release · Feature page

This release introduces a docker-compose deployment method which gets you all components of a fully-featured terminusdb setup:

• TerminusDB - the main database.
• VectorLink (experimental) - a database sidecar dedicated to storing, indexing and retrieving vectors by similarity, used for AI-enhanced search.
• terminusdb-change-request-api - an API for working with change requests.
• Terminusdb-dashboard - our dashboard for managing terminusdb, which now experimentally supports AI search and change requests.

Beyond that, this version brings various fixes and enhancements to our GraphQL support, our schema checking and migrations, and the document interface. Please read the detailed list below.

Bug fixes

• multi-level graphql hierarchies were not always returning all objects.
• properties with prefixes didn't work properly in graphql.
• graphql reverse links did not work with sanitized names.
• graphql incorrectly filtered out 'id' from user-defined types.

New

• docker-compose now comes bundled with vectorlink, local dashboard and pull request API.
• properties can now be inherited from multiple superclasses, and even redefined in a subclass, as long as they form a type-compatible hierarchy. The strictest form is actually applied. If the subclass defines a property that is not at least as strict as what was defined in the supers, this results in a schema error.
• graphql can now be made to not return subsumptions through the generated include_children argument.
• new environment variable TERMINUSDB_TRUST_MIGRATIONS will ensure that instance data is not re-checked when schemas change due to migrations, as migrations should in principle not result in any errors. As the migration feature is still relatively new, the default here is false, meaning that without this environment variable, all schema changes result in a recheck of all existing instance data. In the future, this default will likely change.

Enhancements

• schema migration scripts now support changes to class hierarchies and key strategies.
• the graphql engine now keeps a small cache around of recent schemas to speed up repeated queries.

Experimental

• graphql filters now support deep matches on IDs.
• document API has a new parameter ids on GET allowing you to submit a list of documents to retrieve at once.
