v0.8.1

BUG FIXES:

Fix initialize() method recovery_shares and recovery_threshold parameter validation regression. GH-416

BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY NOTICE:

The Client() class constructor now behaves similarly to Vault CLI in that it uses the VAULT_ADDR environmental variable for the Client URL when that variable is set. Along the same lines, when no token is passed into the Client() constructor, it will attempt to load a token from the VAULT_TOKEN environmental variable or the ~/.vault-token file where available. GH-411

IMPROVEMENTS:

BUG FIXES:

Fix for comparision recovery_threshold and recovery_shares during initialization. GH-398
Fix request method for AWS secrets engine generate_credentials() method. GH-403
Fix request parameter (n_bytes -> bytes) for Transit secrets engine generate_random_bytes() method. GH-377

IMPROVEMENTS:

BUG FIXES:

MISCELLANEOUS:

Travis CI builds now run against Python 3.7 (along side the previously tested 2.7 and 3.6 versions). GH-360
Documentation build test case added. GH-366
Module version now managed by the bumpversion utility exclusively. GH-369

IMPROVEMENTS:

BUG FIXES:

Simplify redirect handling in Adapter class to fix issues following location headers with fully qualified URLs. Note: hvac now converts // to / within any paths. GH-348
Fixed a bug where entity and group member IDs were not being passed in to Identity secrets engine group creation / updates. GH-346
Ensure all types of responses for the read_health_status() system backend method can be retrieved without exceptions being raised. GH-347
Fix read_seal_status() in Client class’s seal_status property. GH-354

DOCUMENTATION UPDATES:

Example GCP auth method login() call with google-api-python-client usage added: Example with google-api-python-client Usage. GH-350

MISCELLANEOUS:

Note: Starting after release 0.7.0, develop is the main integration branch for the hvac project. The master branch is now intended to capture the state of the most recent release.
Test cases for hvac are no longer included in the release artifacts published to PyPi. GH-334
The create_or_update_policy system backend method now supports a “pretty_print” argument for different JSON formatting. This allows create more viewable policy documents when retrieve existing policies (e.g., from within the Vault UI interface). GH-342
Explicit support for Vault v0.8.3 dropped. CI/CD tests updated to run against Vault v1.0.0. GH-344

DEPRECATION NOTICES:

All auth method classes are now accessible under the auth property on the hvac.Client class. GH-310. (E.g. the github, ldap, and mfa Client properties’ methods are now accessible under Client.auth.github, etc.)
All secrets engines classes are now accessible under the secrets property on the hvac.Client class. GH-311 (E.g. the kv, Client property’s methods are now accessible under Client.secrets.kv)
All system backend classes are now accessible under the sys property on the hvac.Client class. GH-314 ([GH-314] through [GH-325]) E.g. methods such as enable_secret_backend() under the Client class are now accessible under Client.sys.enable_secrets_engine(), etc.
