Features :top: :star: :star_struck:

  • [Pipeline Editor] Warning messages inform the user when steps in a Section might be missing, or when steps in a Pipeline Workflow might missing some information.
  • [Pipeline Editor] Configuration options marked as passwords are not shown in plaintext on the UI anymore.
  • [Search] libNLP: Added LemmaExpander step that keeps track of lemmatised version of relevant query terms.
  • [UI] Allow left alignment of the compact global search.
  • [libNLP] Add support for marking NLP step parameters as deprecated.
  • [libNLP] Add support for multiline parameters in the NLP steps.
  • [Search] Autocomplete first suggested facet value in the global search after hitting Tab.
  • Implement React testing.
  • Added new default templates for React widgets.
  • Tabs widget can now be used in custom widgets.
  • Change ML template classifier labels from a text input to select.
  • [Activity Tracking] Expose configuration on the Activity Tracking pipelet to dynamically enrich activity logs with specified User Data (Information is then stored in Labels within Monitoring Project).
  • [Platform] Support retrieval of facets from ES index mapping for Squirro projects that are backed by multiple indices (e.g., the Squirro Monitoring project, which currently uses 3 index_names in its locator). Entries of index_names can be actual ES indices or ES aliases.
  • Added new component preview storybook add-on.
  • Add document inline search queries to typeahead history.
  • Responsive design for reference view.
  • [Search] Increase recall by performing (additional) language specific, lemmatised search. This requires an active Query Processing Workflow that uses the Step LemmaExpander.
  • ItemsWidget will show item read time for last read items instead of item created time.
  • Clear query search after hitting ENTER in empty global search bar.
  • Any new Squirro Monitoring projects will now include a Data Ingestion dashboard. This new dashboard, in its current basic form, can be used to examine if a step failed during the execution of a pipeline.
