Instead of the hybrid architecture of prior versions (with PHP code running in an Apache HTTP Server and Java code running in an Apache Tomcat Server),
the CMS now consists of only a single .jar file, which will start an embedded HTTP Server.

For migration of existing installations, please follow the migration guide in our infoportal.

Enhancement

A new admin endpoint was added to batch delete dirt queue entries with a time based filter as well as a filter based on the state.

GPU-599
Enhancement

Adds resolution of missing references during synchronizing a devtools package from the filesystem. Any referenced object that are not yet present will be referenced correctly once they are created.

GPU-567
Enhancement

Adds form resource endpoints POST /rest/form/{id}/export and GET /rest/form/{id}/export/status to request asynchronous export creation and check availability of the export respectively. Available exports are downloaded via GET /rest/form/{id}/download/{downloadUuid} where the downloadUuid is provided in the status response. Analogously asynchronous downloads for a forms binaries can be requested and checked with POST /rest/form/{id}/binaries and GET /rest/form/{id}/binaries/status respectively.

Bugfix

When a list element contains a break at the end you could not end the list by pressing enter two times. This is because the cursor could not be placed after the break, because the break is invisible. This fix makes breaks as last elements visible.

Gentics Mesh 2.0.0

Enhancement
Enhancement

OrientDB: Basic experimental support for OrientDB native filtering/sorting is added. The GraphQL Mesh options has a new preference `nativeQueryFiltering` with options: `NEVER` (old filtering, default value), `ALWAYS` (DB filtering is forced),
`ON_DEMAND` (GraphQL parameter `nativeFilter` is considered).

Enhancement
Enhancement

GraphQL: Added new filters for field types: list, micronode, (s3)binary. Added a new experimental filter for referencedBy nodes.

Enhancement
Enhancement

GraphQL: A simplified, native filtering friendly version of `regex` string operation, `like`, has been added, accepting wildcards `%` as a zeroable set of characters, e.g. `like: “hello%world”` requests filtering in the strings, that start with `hello`, end with `world` and have zero-to-unlimited number of any characters in between.

Enhancement
Enhancement

GraphQL: Support of database level filtering/sorting has been added. New `sort` parameter in added for structured sorting, forcing the usage of DB filtering. New GraphQL parameter `nativeFilter`
is added to the selected entity lookup methods, with options `NEVER` (old filtering is forced), `ALWAYS` (DB filtering is forced), `IF_POSSIBLE` (if the requested filter is supported by a DB, DB filtering is used, otherwise filtering is fallen back to the old filter mechanism).
Please note that not all the currently existing filters are supported by the DB.

Enhancement
Enhancement

Core: Support of database level filtering/sorting has been added to the low level Java API.

Enhancement
Enhancement

Adds asynchronous checks for uploaded binaries. When the new property `binaryCheckUrl` is set for a binary field in a schema, a request for checking the binary will be sent to that URL. The service is expected to send a request to the callback endpoint for that binary to set the check status to either ACCEPTED or DENIED (status for binaries with pending checks is POSTPONED). Requests for binaries with a check status other than ACCEPTED will result in a 404 response.
