v0.2.0-rc3

This release sees a variety of bug fixes and new features that should get us close to a final 0.2.0 release. There have also been a few minor adjustments to the v2 API in this release to solve problems people were seeing.

etcd

• New leader election module (see https://github.com/coreos/etcd#leader-election)
• Documentation added for the lock module (see https://github.com/coreos/etcd#lock)
• Flags added to adjust heartbeat and election timeouts
• Remove the PrevValue field from the Node object (see http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.distributed.etcd/56)
• Add a dir parameter for explicitly creating, updating and deleting directories (see #349)
• Dashboard module had a variety of bug fixes
• Added directory TTL API documentation

etcdctl

• etcdctl --debug dumps the cluster peers to ease debugging
• etcdctl ls --recursive prints out the key space recursively now
• etcdctl --peers is parsed identically to the etcd flag

v0.2.0-rc2

The major changes in this release are some adjustments to the v2 response format to improve usability for clients, a new lock module and the usual set of bug fixes.

etcd

• etcd: mod/lock has been merged into the API, docs forthcoming
• etcd: Based on feedback from a number of people we have a simpler response format in the v2 API on master. go-etcd and etcdctl master have been updated too.

$ curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/?recursive=true
{
    "action": "get",
    "node": {
        "dir": true,
        "key": "/",
        "nodes": [
            {
                "createdIndex": 2,
                "dir": true,
                "key": "/foo_dir",
                "modifiedIndex": 2,
                "nodes": [
                    {
                        "createdIndex": 2,
                        "key": "/foo_dir/foo",
                        "modifiedIndex": 2,
                        "value": "bar"
                    }
                ]
            }
        ]
    }
}

etcdctl

• etcdctl: exec-watch tool added to exec a script whenever a key changes

v0.2.0-rc1: CAS, Tiered Config, Refactoring, Hardening

This is a release candidate for v0.2.0. We've added a lot of additional features since v0.1.0:

• Compare-and-Swap (CAS) operations are now available so you can conditional set values on keys. It's an essential component to building distributed lock systems.
• Tiered configuration allows you to specify arguments on the command line, through environment variables, or by loading a configuration file.
• Recursive GET requests can retrieve all data within a directory.
• GET requests can be fully consistent by specifying the consistent=true query parameter.
• Clients can now watch for expiring keys.
• Versioning on the internal protocol will allow you to run multiple versions of etcd in a cluster and perform rolling upgrades.

We've also dedicated a ton of resources to refactoring code and significantly improving unit tests and migration tests.
