It's time for This Week in OpenNMS!
In the last week we did a lot of work improving recent feature additions including netflow and topology support, as well as UI refactors and other GUI improvements.
Github Project Updates
- Internals, APIs, and Documentation
- Markus and Dustin did some wrap-up work on the multi-protocol netflow support.
- Jesse fixed a timing bug in Kafka alarm sync.
- Chandra did more work on moving detectors and pollers to use the integration API.
- Antonio and Markus continued work on the project to move topology data to a backend service.
- Chandra added support for larger Kafka buffer sizes.
- David fixed a bug where alarms can be correlated to multiple situations.
- Markus did some work on the daemon reload refactor.
- Matthew added support for parsing a number of additional syslog formats.
- Jesse did more work on indexing alarms in Elasticsearch.
- Dustin worked on adding Carbon support to Telemetryd.
- Matthew worked on making it possible to use OCE directly in OpenNMS core without Kafka.
- Web & UI
- Sebastian worked on the Bootstrap 4 UI migration.
- Markus did more work on the Vaadin 8 migration.
- I added support for getting managed object data from alarms in opennms.js and displaying it in the alarm details in Helm.
- Christian made a number of alarm/severity-related UI changes, including fixing pagination, bugs in the alarm details, and situation display on the front page.
- Patrick continued his work improving the performance of the topology UI.
- I worked on a couple of Helm bug fixes and enhancements, including honoring the "style with severity" setting in the alarm details page, and grouping a severity's "related alarms" in the alarm details page by node.
- David did more work on a GraphML exporter for OCE data.
- Brynjar Eide fixed drag & drop support in IE, Firefox, and Safari when editing column order in Helm.
- Ronny added nicer favicons for the web UI.
