ActDK Migration Guide

This section describes the procedure required to update the ActDK. If you use a version not described here, you can update it and continue to use it.

1.10.0

ignores field in .actdk/files.json is deprecated: this field is ignored and deleted automatically. You can use .actdkignore instead.

1.7.0

actfw is deprecated. Instead, actfw-core and actfw-raspberrypi are released. If you import modules in actfw, a deprecation warning is reported. See How to use actfw and replace actfw.

1.6.0

The validation of setting_schema.json got more strict than before. If your schema fails validation, you need to modify it. See Application Schemas for more detail of new validation.

1.3.1

Some subcommands of actdk now notify errors if boards of manifestos of a project have duplicates.

At the application launch, boards are used to determine which manifesto should be applied to the target device. Especially, if duplicates exist in boards of manifesto/*.json files, it may result in unexpected behavior. actdk raises errors to avoid it. Please correct the manifestos if you get that error.

See manifesto/*.json for more details.

1.3.0

actdk init now generates a manifesto file for Raspberry Pi 4. It is generated only at initialization; it is not generated automatically for existing projects. If you want to support Raspberry Pi 4 in such projects, create the file manifesto/pi4_or_later.json by using actdk init and place it into your project.

See manifesto/*.json for more details.

1.0.1

Updating nnoir2stubc is required.

$ docker load -i nnoir2stubc-0.4.0.0.tar.bz2

1.0.0

ActDK official release (v1.0.0) enables developers to write “a manifesto” that defines the application resources. For an application without a manifesto, Actcast server applies the default setting automatically in its uploading.

If you have developed an application that uses some special device with previous versions of actdk, please make a new manifesto directory under the working directory, and place a JSON file that specifies the use of the device inside that directory.

See manifesto/*.json for more details.
