[ANN] Apache Isis version 2.0.0-M3 Released

After a *lot* of development effort, the Apache Isis committers are delighted to announce the release of v2.0.0-M3 of the framework.

This is a major milestone release that "re-platforms" Apache Isis so that it now runs on top of Spring Boot 2.x.  JDK8 is the minimum.  Some highlights:

• A new convenience parent pom builds on top of Spring Boot’s similar parent pom, to make it easy to develop new apps, along with simplified "mavendeps" pom’s.
• The Maven archetypes have been replaced with Starter Apps in github repos.
• Configuration properties have been refactored, and can now be specified (with intellisense hints) using Spring’s application.properties or application.yml

New features:

• a new @Property#projecting allows view model summaries to be returned as "projections" of underlying entities.
• new layout() method (or UI event) allows a domain object to specify which layout file should be used to render it.
• there is no longer any need to specify @ParameterLayout#named()
• there is now a security integration with Keycloak

There are also a number of new extensions:

• Flyway (integrating with Spring Boot’s support)
• pdf.js (for Wicket viewer)
• fullcalendar (for Wicket viewer)
• excel download (for Wicket viewer)

Other improvements include:

• Integration test support, and BDD (Cucumber) "spec" support have been refactored to run on Spring Boot with Junit 5.
• New demo app to demonstrate new features.
• New smoketest app to catch regressions

Finally, the website has been updated to use Antora.

[ANN] New committer - Jörg Rade

Hi folks,

[ANN] Apache Isis version 2.0.0-M2 Released

The Apache Isis team is pleased to announce the release of Apache Isis 2.0.0-M2.

This milestone introduces one new feature, namely support for a table tree view in the Wicket viewer. It also includes all the features as of Apache Isis 1.17.0.

The long-term goal (for v2.0.0) is to allow the framework to be run on top of either SpringBoot or JEE MicroProfile, with either of those lower-level frameworks taking responsibility for configuration and injection. In this milestone, some significant initial work has been done in this area. Notably, the IsisConfiguration is now immutable once instantiated, and its creation with respect to the AppManifest has been figured out.

Lots of work has also been done both in updating or removing dependencies, with google guava being notable as one dependency that has been removed.

Full release notes are available on the Apache Isis website at [1].
