v2024.3.0

🚀 v2024.3.0 🚀

Meet the new RoadRunner release! This time we have a lot of new features, improvements, and bug fixes. Let's dive in! In this realse we have added a new feature called Auto Workers Scaling. This feature allows users to scale their RoadRunner workers automatically, up to 100 additional workers. SQS plugin was significantly reworked without major breaking changes, please, read the updated documentation carefully. RoadRunner-Temporalplugin now supports API-Keys (which would be added via our SDK-PHP and documentated in it as well).

v2024.2.0

Upgrade guide: link

Community plugins

We are introducing a new term in the RoadRunner community — Community plugins.
If you have a brilliant idea for the http middleware or JOBS driver or even a new plugin - feel free to check our
Customization tutorials, create and notify us about your plugin.

Plugins updates:

🔥 Meet the new JOBS driver - Google Pub/Sub

RoadRunner now supports the Google Pub/Sub queues. Currently, this driver is released in BETA and has a few limitations which you may find in the docs

AMQP and Kafka JOBS drivers

• 🔥 Support an auto-restart pipeline on redial or some fatal problems when connecting to the RabbitMQ broker. Instead of silently exit from the pipeline, RR will try to re-initialize the pipeline.

Thanks to our PHP team, KV now has AsyncStorageInterface support which makes your experience with the KV plugin even faster.
Feel free to read the technical details here: link

Samples repository

• 🔥 Our RoadRunner samples repository was updated and now includes a Jobs driver example for the Jobs plugin.
  More info here: link.

Our Go-SDK was deprecated

• 😭 Our Go-SDK was deprecated and split into separate packages. Read more in the Upgrade guide.

Velox configuration update

• 🔥 Velox configuration was simplified:

[roadrunner]
  # ref -> reference, tag, commit or branch
  ref = "v2024.2.0"

# the debug option is used to build RR with debug symbols to profile it with pprof
[debug]
enabled = false

## Rest is the same ....

Now, there is no need to include linker flags, and buildtime + build version would be inherited automatically.
If you need to debug your binary, please, use the debug option set to true.

Special thanks to our sponsors ❤️ :

✏️ Future changes:

• 💡: Configuration includes will be out of experimental status in the next minor release (v2024.2.0) and currently don't have restrictions on where to put the included config.
