## **Release 3.x.x**

### **New Features**

#### **Added Event Filters**

- New filters for Event service subscriptions.
    - You can now specify from which API, AEF, or Invoker you want to receive the event notifications.
    - These filters are specified in the ***eventDetails*** of the subscription if the ***Enhanced Event Report*** feature of the ***Supported Features*** is activated.
- More detailed information about event filters can be found in [Event Filter].

## **Release 2.0.0**

### **New Features**

#### **Upgrade code to 3GPP CAPIF release 18**

- New endpoints included in new release 18 with new logic.
- Supported Features now are mandatory for all POST and PUT Requests as is described on TS 29.222. To keep in mind:
    - All POST/PUT request now must include ***Supported Features*** attribute, default can me set to ``0`` to keep all features inactive.
    - On subscription to Event, if you need ***eventDetails*** information on notification you must activate ***Enhanced Event Report*** feature by setting properly the ***Supported Features*** flag.
- Detailed information about models and endpoints upgrade on [Upgrade Release 17 to 18 Wiki]

#### **Vendor Extensibility**

- Publish API:
    - On publishing a service API, **SupportedFeatures** is read and checked whether VendExt feature is enabled.
    - When VendExt is enabled, vendor-specific fields are searched and stored in the db inside the ServiceAPIDescription object
    - Vendor-specific fields are added according to the specific format:

```json

    "vendorSpecific-urn:<organization>:<field name>": {
        "key1": "value1",
        ...
        "keyN": "valueN",
    }
  
    e.g. 
    "vendorSpecific-urn:etsi:mec:capifext:transport-info": {
        "name": "trasport1",
        "description": "Transport Info 1",
        "type": "REST_HTTP",
        "protocol": "HTTP",
        "version": "2",
        "security": {
            "grantTypes": "OAUTH2_CLIENT_CREDENTIALS",
            "tokenEndpoint": "https://token-endpoint/"
        }
    }
  
    where organization is "etsi:mec" and field name "capifext:transport-info"

```

- Discover API:
    - On Discover request **SupportedFeatures** is read and checked whether VendSpecQueryParams feature is enabled.
    - When VendSpecQueryParams is enabled, vendor-specific query parameters are parsed
    - Vendor specific query parameters are added on the GET request according to the following format:

```json
    https://{{CAPIF_HOSTNAME}}:{{CAPIF_PORT}}/{{DISCOVER_URL}}?
           ...
           vend-spec-<query parameter name>={
              "target": <string that contains the JSON pointer to the attribute in the resource representation>, 
              "value": <query parameter value>
    }
  
    e.g. 
    https://{{CAPIF_HOSTNAME}}:{{CAPIF_PORT}}/{{DISCOVER_URL}}?
           ...
           vend-spec-type={
              "target": "/vendorSpecific-urn:etsi:mec:capifext:transport-info", 
              "value": "REST_HTTP"
    }
```


#### **Api Status feature**

- New logic to support ***API Status*** feature on Publish and Events Services.
- Events API:
    - Event internal notifications between services improved to accomplish specification.
    - On event subscription **SupportedFeatures** is read and stored in db to accomplish specification.
    - Also **SupportedFeatures** is checked before send event notification, in order to accomplish specification, sending **eventDetails** and related information according to ***enhanced_event_report*** and ***apiStatusMonitoring*** supported features activated.

#### Remote Scripts

New scripts developed to help on remote deployment, configuration and testing. All this script are stored under helm/scripts in capif repository.

***variables.sh*** contains all configuration that will be used on remote operation. This file must be filled carefully before run remote scripts.

- Deployment Scripts:
    - ***install_vault.sh***: Deploy Vault component from k8s cluster, only needed if vault is not previously deployed. If it’s deployed you can setup vault token on variables.sh.
    - ***install_monitoring.sh***: Deploy monitoring on k8s cluster.
    - ***install_capif.sh***: Deploy OpenCAPIF on k8s cluster. It will be deployed on configured namespace with domain and hostnames configured under variables.sh.
    - ***uninstall_vault.sh***: Rollback Vault component from k8s cluster.
    - ***uninstall_monitoring.sh***: Rollback monitoring components from k8s cluster.
    - ***uninstall_capif.sh***: Rollback OpenCAPIF from k8s cluster.

- Manage remote users:
    - ***create_remote_users.sh***: This script create users setup by parameters on deployed OpenCAPIF. Those users are created by administrator.
    - ***remove_remote_users.sh***: This script removes user from deployed OpenCAPIF.
    - ***remove_remote_users_by_prefix.sh***:: This script removes users by prefix.

- Configuration of bastion machine, this simplify DNS fixed resolution:
    - ***get_ingress.sh***: This create a configuration for dns fixed resolution for ingress configured in namespace passed by parameters.
    - ***set_ingress.sh***: This scripts adds to /etc/hosts the fixed DNS resolution for ingress setup for  namespace passed by parameters.

- Execute robot tests over remote deployment.
    - ***run_remote_capif_tests.sh***: This scripts launch Robot Test docker image on current machine to reach deployed OpenCAPIF. Is useful to launch with “--include smoke” in order to ensure all is deployed properly.

- Just for testing, next scripts upload dummy information to deployed OpenCAPIF:
    - ***populate_create_remote_dummy_users.sh***: : Create Dummy providers and invokers, publish service APIs and creates security context for invokers.
    - ***populate_remove_remote_dummy_users.sh***: Remove dummy information created.

### New Tools and Components

#### SDK

New Python SDK is developed in order to simplify the creation and operation of providers and invokers. Please check the [SDK repository](https://labs.etsi.org/rep/ocf/sdk) for more information, there you can get more information about how to use it and also how to contibute to it.

#### Provider and Invoker example Clients

In order to help developers to create their own invokers/providers entities and try the behavior of the OpenCAPIF, we also add to the OCF respository two example with console interaction at [example clients repository](https://labs.etsi.org/rep/ocf/example-clients):

- [invoker-cli](https://labs.etsi.org/rep/ocf/example-clients/invoker-cli)
- [provider-cli](https://labs.etsi.org/rep/ocf/example-clients/provider-cli)

More information on README of each component.

### **Testing**

### **Technical Debt Solved**

#### Local Scripts

- All scripts were reviewed and improved.
- New scripts to manage users on local deployment added:
    - ***create_users.sh***: This script create users setup by parameters in local deployment.. Those users are created by administrator.
    - ***remove_users.sh***: This script removes user in local deployment.

#### **Issues**

- Solved issue to get ready REDIS on deployment: REDIS scheduled on start to allow receive notification since service is deployed.
- Solved problem removing service APIs published is provider register more than one APF.
- Solved Superadmin problem deleting service API published through helper service if provider is not present.

## **Release 1.0.0**

### **New Features**

#### Registration Flow improved

- Eliminated access from CAPIF to the Register user database when onboarding is performed.
- Isolation between CCF and Register services, interaction now is only by HTTPS requested between Register, CCF and Vault.
- Eliminated the "role" in user creation.
    - Now a user can be an invoker or a provider at the same time
- Administrator User:
    - New entity in charge of registering and managing users of the register service.
- UUID to identify users.
    - When you create a user, a uuid is associated with it
    - The uuid will be contained in the token requested by the user and will be used to relate invokers and providers with users.
- Endpoints changed and created:
    - Administrator endpoints:
        - /createUser: /register endpoint changed to createUser. Used to register new users.
        - /deleteUser: /remove endpoint changed to this. Used to delete users and all the entities they had created.
        - /login: Allows administrator to log in to obtain the necessary tokens for their requests.
        - /refresh: Retrieve new access token token.
        - /getUsers: Returns the list with all registered users.
    - Customer User:
        - /getauth now also returns the urls needed to use CAPIF, used by customer.
- Security improvements:
    - /login uses basic auth with administrator credentials.
    - /getauth uses basic auth with customer user credentials.
    - Other requests use the administrator access token obtained from login.

- Current fields on user creation by administrator:
```
required_fields = {
    "username": str,
    "password": str,
    "enterprise": str,
    "country": str,
    "email": str,
    "purpose": str
}

optional_fields = {
    "phone_number": str,
    "company_web": str,
    "description": str
}
```

- Test plan has been updated with the new register flow. Please check [OCF Registration Flow]
- Video with explanation and demonstration of new register flow [New Registration Demo]

#### New OpenCAPIF architecture

- New arquitecture with separated namespaces for Vault, CCF and Register components. Communication between them now are only allowed by using REST APIs.
- New helper service inside CCF, it will simplify integration with third parties like external management portals.

- Helper endpoints:
    - /getInvokers : Get the list of invokers from CAPIF
    - /getProviders: Get the list of providers from CAPIF
    - /getServices : Get the list of services published in CAPIF
    - /getSecurityContext : Get the list of security contexts from CAPIF
    - /getEvents : Get the list of events subscriptions from CAPIF
    - /deleteEntities: Removes all entities registered by a user from the register

- Detailed information in the [CICD Wiki].
- Implement initial CI/CD:
    - Description of the CI process.
        - In CI phase, created design, jobs and security checks when a branch is pushed.
        - The CI has jobs as:
            - Linting code, unit test (if needed),
            - Build and push artifacts (images) in Git OCI register
            - Security checks,
            - SCA, CVS, SAST
            - The vulnerabilities are exposed in Merge Request panel to be solved.
    - Description of the CD process:
        - Defined the environments to OCF.
            - Production env.
            - Pre-production env.
            - Validation env.
            - Dev-1, dev-2… envs (ephemeral)

            - Tag in prod: v0.0.1-release
            - Tag non-prod: v0.0.1-rc
            - Other tags: v0.0.1-test, v0.0.1-smt
        - Defined the jobs of CD
            - CD ensures the deployment in multiple envs. Therefore, the CD pipeline has deploy-ocf, delete-ocf (if needed) jobs
    - ETSI HIVE Labs:
        - Designed, created and the Kuberntes OCF cluster is running to support OCFs deployments.
        - Iterating with ETSI HIVE’s support to solve computing issues.
