Patch Patch Patch: StackStorm 2.7.2

Hey folks – StackStorm 2.7.2 has been released. We’ve fixed a bug affecting sensors, improved Jinja rendering, fixed a couple of Web UI bugs and improved the LDAP & RBAC handling for Enterprise users. This is a recommended update for all users. Read on for the details.

Changes & Fixes

• Sensors that use select.poll() were broken in 2.7 due to eventlet changes. This has been fixed.
• Pack configuration now properly renders Jinja expressions when lists are used.
• Config rendering error messages are now a bit easier to understand.
• Web UI links to actions from the Rules tab now work properly.
• The Web UI no longer crashes if your action metadata includes a custom object that has a secret parameter.

Enterprise Enhancements

A couple of improvements to LDAP & RBAC handling, especially for those people using automatic group -> role synchronization:

• Cache users group information for 120s. This reduces the load on the LDAP server.
• Fix a race condition where not all groups would be synchronized if the user re-authenticated witht the same token within a short window.

Details of fixes and changes are in the changelog.

As ever, thanks to all those who contributed in some way, via code, bug reports, and feature requests.
