Breaking changes#

This version of Codacy Self-hosted introduces the following breaking changes:

  • Dropped support for legacy manual organizations.

    Important

    If you're using legacy manual organizations please contact support@codacy.com before upgrading to Codacy Self-hosted 5.0.0 or above so that we can assist you with migrating your legacy organizations.

  • The Codacy components codacy-activities, hotspots-api, and hotspots-worker are no longer needed and were removed.

    Although the update process handles this change automatically by deleting the redundant pods from your cluster, it's recommended that after updating Codacy you manually delete:

    • The databases codacy-activities and hotspots since they're no longer used.

    • The following configuration file keys related to these components and their databases:

      activities.*
hotspots-api.*
hotspots-worker.*
global.activitiesdb.*
global.hotspotsdb.*

Product enhancements#

  • Now, Codacy supports linting OpenAPI and AsyncAPI descriptions in either YAML or JSON files using Spectral. (CY-5088)

  • You can now use an organization coding standard to apply the same coding best practices, conventions, or security rules to a group of repositories. (CY-4654)

    Organization coding standard

Bug fixes#

  • Fixed an issue that could cause SonarVB to time out independently of how many files are analyzed. (CY-5204)
  • Improved the visual feedback for the Jira integration status. (CY-5190)
  • Fixed an issue that prevented the message "Refresh the page to see the results" from being displayed on the commit and pull request pages after a re-analysis was completed. (CY-5187)
  • Fixed some default regular expressions on codacy-checkstyle that could cause the code pattern PackageName to report false positives when configured using the Codacy UI. (CY-5185)
