Eclipse JKube 1.19 is now available!

On behalf of the Eclipse JKube team and everyone who has contributed, I'm happy to announce that Eclipse JKube 1.19.0 has been released and is now available from Maven Central 🎉.

Thanks to all of you who have contributed with issue reports, pull requests, feedback, and spreading the word with blogs, videos, comments, and so on. We really appreciate your help, keep it up!

What's new?

Without further ado, let's have a look at the most significant updates:

• Improved Spring Boot health probes configuration
• ECR registry authentication with AWS SDK v2
• IngressClassName support for Ingress resources
• Updated base images from UBI 8 to UBI 9
• Reduced dependencies (Guava removal)
• 🐛 Many other bug-fixes and minor improvements

Improved Spring Boot health probes configuration

This release brings several improvements for the Spring Boot health probes configuration:

• JKube now uses the correct management.endpoint.health.probes.enabled property. The previous property (management.health.probes.enabled) was deprecated in Spring Boot 2.3.2.
• Added support for server.ssl.enabled and management.server.ssl.enabled properties to enable liveness/readiness probes for Spring Boot Actuator. This allows for easier environment-specific SSL configuration.

ECR registry authentication with AWS SDK v2

JKube now supports Amazon ECR registry authentication using AWS SDK Java v2. This update ensures compatibility with the latest AWS SDK and provides a more robust authentication mechanism when pushing images to Amazon Elastic Container Registry.

IngressClassName support for Ingress resources

The IngressClassName field is now supported in the NetworkingV1IngressGenerator. This is essential for Kubernetes environments with multiple ingress controllers, allowing you to specify which ingress controller should handle your Ingress resources.

Using this release

If your project is based on Maven, you just need to add the Kubernetes Maven plugin or the OpenShift Maven plugin to your plugin dependencies:

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.eclipse.jkube</groupId>
  <artifactId>kubernetes-maven-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>1.19.0</version>
</plugin>

If your project is based on Gradle, you just need to add the Kubernetes Gradle plugin or the OpenShift Gradle plugin to your plugin dependencies:

plugins {
  id 'org.eclipse.jkube.kubernetes' version '1.19.0'
}
