Caddy v2.0.0-beta.15 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-02-28 // about 4 years ago

  • 🚀 Caddy 2.0 beta 15 is the next pre-release in the development cycle of Caddy 2 and is the best one yet! We recommend that everyone on the beta track upgrade, test in a dev or staging environment, and then use in production!

    🍱 💚 Please consider sponsoring this project. I work on this full-time and our runway is extremely limited!

    Some highlights:

    • Built on Go 1.14
    • Can specify custom, trusted ACME server CA roots in the Caddyfile (thanks @sarge!)
    • 👌 Improvements to some matchers in the Caddyfile
    • 🆕 New log Caddyfile directive enables and configures access logging (a.k.a. HTTP request logs)
    • 🆕 New debug Caddyfile option to enable debug mode (debug-level logs, globally)
    • 🛠 Fixes to basicauth directive and error handling (thanks @roblabla!)
    • 🛠 Fixes to TLS certificate loading
    • 🛠 Fixes to HTTP/3 servers through config reloads
    • 🛠 Fixes to reverse proxy health checks
    • 🛠 Fixes to header and header_regexp matchers (thanks @gilbsgilbs!)
    • Several new TLS-related placeholders available (thanks @moorereason!)
    • The caddy reverse-proxy command now has a --change-host-header flag
    • The reverse_proxy directive can accept URLs for backend addresses
    • Admin endpoint can be disabled in the Caddyfile with admin off option
    • Environment variables expand nested env variables (thanks @zaquestion!)
    • 🐎 Performance improvements with lots of TLS automation policies
    • Several other minor enhancements!
    • Known regression: Caddyfile adapter: Caddy network addresses are parsed incorrectly in the reverse_proxy and php_fastcgi directives; temporary workaround is to use a working address then fix it in the JSON. Fix is now available in c83d40c - please build from source to get it

    🚀 Please remember that Caddy 2 beta releases are not yet feature-complete as development is ongoing, nor are they stable; there are likely to be some breaking changes between tags. We hope you will find ways to use Caddy 2 beta in production and report any issues you find!

    This is a community effort, so please report bugs, join the discussion, and submit pull requests to be a part of the team!
