Arrow Builder 1.2.48 Release Note

Arrow Builder 1.2.48 - 09 September 2015

Arrow Builder 1.2.48 is a minor release that includes new features, improvements and bug fixes. 

New Features and Improvements

• Add ability to customize the styling of the API Docs page. For details, see the ArrowWeb tab in the Admin console and API Builder Developer Guide.
• Hide overridden APIs in the API Docs page.
• Map missing methods, such as cookie, vary, etc. to the common Express method in the response object.
• Implement new LDAP plugin for Arrow client authentication. For details, see Arrow Authentication Schemes: LDAP.
• Improve support of loading and overriding configuration from the environment. Prefix environment variables with ARROW_ to override the value from the configuration file. For example, if you have apikey defined in the configuration file, you can override the value with the environment variable ARROW_APIKEY.
• Add default health-check API endpoint arrowPing.json.
• Add ability to hide APIs in the API Docs. To hide documentation, set the documented property to false for Connectors, Models, APIs or Blocks.
• Exposed the connectionTimeout property in the MSSQL connector.
• Add ability to specify the models to generate from a connector. In the connector's configuration file, set the generateModels key to an array of model names you want to include.
• Exposed the schemaRefresh property in the SalesForce connector and added a If-Modified-Since check to update the schema only when needed.
• Print out application version in Arrow console log during startup.
• New guided development flow for creating an Arrow Connector.
• Improved server start time by skipping appc install when possible.
