Dokku v0.4.0 Release Notes

  • 🚀 This is our first minor release in almost a year. Many new features and removals have occurred, so here is a neat summary:

    • 🔌 Plugins are now triggered via plugn. Notably, you'll need add a plugin.toml to describe the plugin as well as use plugn trigger instead of pluginhook to trigger plugin callbacks. Please see the plugin creation documentation for more details.
    • 🆕 A few new official plugins have been added to the core, including image tagging, certificate management, a tar-based deploy solution, and much more. Check out the New Features section for more details.
    • 📚 We've removed a few deprecated plugin callbacks. Please see the plugin triggers documentation to see what is available.
    • 🔌 Official datastorage plugins have been created for the most commonly used datastores. If you previously used/maintained a community contributed plugin, please check these out. We'll be adding more official plugins as time goes on.

    Thanks to the many contributors for making this release our best release so far, and special thanks to both @michaelshobbs and @Flink for pushing along the 0.4.0 release!
