Upgrading from 1.0.0-compat: Just a few backwards incompatible changes:

  • #1056 - Removed the nsq_pubsub utility
  • #873 - nsqd flags --msg-timeout and --statsd-interval only take duration strings
    • plain integer no longer supported
  • #921 - nsqd: http /mpub endpoint binary param interprets "0" or "false" to mean text mode
    • previously any value meant to use binary mode instead of text mode - (thanks @andyxning)

The previous release, version "1.0.0-compat", was curiously-named to indicate an almost (but not quite) complete transition to a 1.0 api-stable release line. Confusingly, this follow-up release which completes the transition comes more than a year later. Because there have been a fair number of changes and improvements in the past year, an additional minor version bump seems appropriate.

Features:

  • #874 - nsqd: add memory stats to http /stats response (thanks @sparklxb)
  • #892 - nsqd, nsqlookupd, nsqadmin: add --log-level option (deprecating --verbose) (thanks @antihax)
  • #898 - nsqd, nsqlookupd, nsqadmin: logging refactor to use log levels everywhere
  • #914 - nsqadmin: X-Forwarded-User based "admin" permission (thanks @chen-anders)
  • #929 - nsqd: add topic/channel filter to /stats, use in nsqadmin and nsq_stat for efficiency (thanks @andyxning)
  • #936 - nsq_to_file: refactor/cleanup
  • #945 - nsq_to_nsq: support multiple --topic flags (thanks @jlr52)
  • #957 - nsq_tail: support multiple --topic flags (thanks @soar)
  • #946 - nsqd, nsqadmin: update internal http client with new go http.Transport features (keepalives, timeouts, dualstack)
    • affects metadata/stats requests between nsqadmin, nsqd, nsqlookupd
  • #954 - manage dependencies with dep (replacing gpm) (thanks @judwhite)
  • #957 - multi-stage docker image build (thanks @soar)
  • #996 - nsqd: better memory usage when messages have different sizes (thanks @andyxning)
  • #1019 - nsqd: optimize random channel selection in queueScanLoop (thanks @vearne)
  • #1025 - nsqd: buffer and spread statsd udp sends (avoid big burst of udp, less chance of loss)
  • #1038 - nsqlookupd: optimize for many producers (thousands) (thanks @andyxning)
  • #1050/#1053 - nsqd: new topic can be unlocked faster after creation
  • #1062 - nsqadmin: update JS deps

Bugs:

  • #753 - nsqadmin: fix missing channels in topic list
  • #867 - to_nsq: fix divide-by-zero issue when --rate not specified (thanks @adamweiner)

  • #1000 - nsq_to_http: fix http connect/request timeout flags (thanks @kamyanskiy)
  • #993/#1008 - nsqd: fix possible lookupd-identify-error busy-loop (reported by @andyxning)
  • #1005 - nsqadmin: fix typo "Delfate" in connection attrs list (thanks @arussellsaw)

Upgrading from 0.3.8: Numerous backwards incompatible changes:

  • Deprecated nsqd features removed:
    • Pre-V1 HTTP endpoints / response format:
      • /{m,}put (use /{m,}pub)
      • /{create,delete,empty,pause,unpause}_{topic,channel} (use /{topic,channel}/<operation>)
    • --max-message-size flag (use --max-msg-size)
    • V2 protocol IDENTIFY command short_id and long_id properties (use client_id, hostname, and user_agent)
    • /stats HTTP response name property (use client_id)
  • Deprecated nsqlookupd features removed:
    • Pre-V1 HTTP endpoints / response format:
      • /{create,delete}_{topic,channel} (use /{topic,channel}/<operation>)
      • /tombstone_topic_producer (use /topic/tombstone)
  • Deprecated nsqadmin features removed:
    • --template-dir flag (not required, templates are compiled into binary)
    • --use-statsd-prefixes flag (use --statsd-counter-format and --statsd-gauge-format)
  • nsq_stat --status-every flag (use --interval)
  • --reader-opt on all binaries that had this flag (use --consumer-opt)
  • nsq_to_file --gzip-compression flag (use --gzip-level)
  • nsq_to_http --http-timeout and --http-timeout-ms flags (use --http-connect-timeout and --http-request-timeout)
  • nsq_to_http --round-robin flag (use --mode=round-robin)
  • nsq_to_http --max-backoff-duration flag (use --consumer-opt=max_backoff_duration,X)
  • nsq_to_http --throttle-fraction flag (use --sample=X)
  • nsq_to_nsq --max-backoff-duration flag (use --consumer-opt=max_backoff_duration,X)
  • nsqd --worker-id deprecated in favor of --node-id (to be fully removed in subsequent release)

This is a compatibility release that drops a wide range of previously deprecated features (#367) while introducing some new deprecations (#844) that we intend to fully remove in a subsequent 1.0 release.

Of note, all of the pre-1.0 HTTP endpoints (and response formats) are gone. Any clients or tools that use these endpoints/response formats won't work with this release. These changes have been available since 0.2.29 (released in July of 2014). Clients wishing to forwards-compatibly upgrade can either use the new endpoints or send the following header:

Accept: application/vnd.nsq version=1.0

Also, many command line flags have been removed — in almost all cases an alternative is available with a (hopefully) more obvious name. These changes have the same affect on config file option names.

On Linux, this release will automatically migrate nsq.<worker-id>.dat named metadata files to nsq.dat in a way that allows users to seamlessly downgrade from this release back to 0.3.8, if necessary. A subsequent release will clean up these convenience symlinks and observe only nsq.dat. See the discussion in #741 and the changes #844 for more details.

Performance wise, #741 landed which significantly reduces global contention on internal message ID generation, providing a ~1.75x speed improvement on multi-topic benchmarks.

Finally, a number of minor issues were resolved spanning contributions from 9 community members! Thanks!

Features:

  • #766 - use alpine base image for official Docker container (thanks @kenjones-cisco)
  • #775 - nsqadmin: /config API (thanks @kenjones-cisco)
  • #776 - nsqadmin, nsq_stat, nsq_to_file, nsq_to_http: HTTP client connect/request timeouts (thanks @kenjones-cisco)
  • #777/#778/#783/#785 - improve test coverage (thanks @kenjones-cisco)
  • #788 - to_nsq: add --rate message throttling option
  • #367 - purge deprecated features (see above)
  • #741 - nsqd: per-topic message IDs (multi-topic pub benchmarks up to ~1.75x faster)
  • #850 - nsqd, nsqlookupd, nsqadmin: add --log-prefix option (thanks @ploxiln)
  • #844 - nsqd: deprecate --worker-id for --node-id and drop ID from nsqd.dat file (thanks @ploxiln)

Upgrading from 0.3.7: Binaries contain no backwards incompatible changes.

This release fixes a critical regression in 0.3.7 that could result in message loss when attempting to cleanly shutdown nsqd by sending it a SIGTERM. The expected behavior was for it to flush messages in internal buffers to disk before exiting. See #757 and #759 for more details.

A few performance improvements landed including #743, which improves channel throughput by ~17%, and #740, which reduces garbage when reading messages from disk.

We're now stripping debug info, reducing binary size, in the official binary downloads and Windows binaries are now bundled with the appropriate .exe extension (#726 and #751).

Features:

  • #743 - nsqd: remove channel messagePump
  • #751 - strip debug info from binaries (thanks @ploxiln)
  • #740 - nsqd: reduce garbage when reading from diskqueue (thanks @Dieterbe)

Bugs:

  • #757/#759 - nsqd: properly handle SIGTERM (thanks @judwhite)
  • #738 - updates for latest go-options
  • #730 - nsqd: diskqueue sync count on both read/write
  • #734 - nsqadmin: make rate column work without --proxy-graphite (thanks @ploxiln)
  • #726 - add .exe extension to Windows binaries (thanks @ploxiln)
  • #722 - nsqadmin: fix connected duration > 1hr

Upgrading from 0.3.6: Binaries contain no backwards incompatible changes.

This release has been built with Go 1.6.

Highlights include the various work done to reduce nsqd lock contention, significantly improving the impact of high load on the /stats endpoint, addressing issues with timeouts and failures in nsqadmin (#700, #701, #703, #709).

Thanks to @judwhite, nsqd and nsqlookupd now natively support being run as a Windows service (#718). We're also now publishing official Windows releases.

nsqd will now flock its data directory on linux, preventing two nsqd from running simultaneously pointed at the same path (#583).

On the bugfix side, the most noteworthy change is that nsqd will now correctly reset health state on a successful backend write (#671).

Features:

Bugs:

  • #672 - nsqd: fix max size accounting in diskqueue (thanks @judwhite)
  • #671 - nsqd: reset health on successful backend write (thanks @judwhite)
  • #615 - nsqd: prevent OOM when reading from nsqlookupd peer
  • #664/#666 - dist.sh/Makefile cleanup (thanks @ploxiln)

Upgrading from 0.3.5: Binaries contain no backwards incompatible changes.

We've adopted the Contributor Covenant 1.2 Code of Conduct (#593). Help us keep NSQ open and inclusive by reading and following this document.

We closed a few longstanding issues related to nsqadmin, namely (#323, et al.) converting it to an API and single-page app (so that it is much easier to develop), displaying fine-grained errors (#421, #657), and enabling support for --tls-required configurations (#396).

For nsqd, we added support for deferred publishing aka DPUB (#293), which allows a producer to specify a duration of time to delay initial delivery of the message. We also addressed performance issues relating to large numbers of topics/channels (#577) by removing some per-channel goroutines in favor of a centralized, periodic, garbage collection approach.

In order to provide more flexibility when deploying NSQ in dynamically orchestrated topologies, nsqd now supports the ability to configure nsqlookupd peers at runtime via HTTP (#601), eliminating the need to restart the daemon.

As part of the large nsqadmin refactoring, we took the opportunity to cleanup the internals for all of the daemon's HTTP code paths (#601, #610, #612, #641) as well as improving the test suite so that it doesn't leave around temporary files (#553).

Features:

  • #593 - add code of conduct
  • #323/#631/#632/#642/#421/#649/#650/#651/#652/#654 - nsqadmin: convert to API / single-page app

  • #293 - nsqd: add deferred pub (DPUB)
  • #577 - nsqd: drop per-channel queue workers in favor of centralized queue GC
  • #584 - nsqlookupd: improve registration DB performance (thanks @xiaost)
  • #601 - nsqd: HTTP endpoints to dynamically configure nsqlookupd peers
  • #608 - nsqd: support for filtering /stats to topic/channel (thanks @chrusty)
  • #601/#610/#612/#641 - improved HTTP internal routing / log HTTP requests
  • #628 - nsqd: clarify help text for --e2e-processing-latency-percentile
  • #640 - switch --{consumer,producer}-opt to nsq.ConfigFlag
