Version history

2023

Angie 1.3.0

19.09.2023

Features

• Ability to specify multiple match patterns in the location directive, which allows to combine several location blocks with similar settings and therefore simplify configuration by reducing duplication.

• Export of varied statistics metrics in Prometheus format with flexible template configuration using the new prometheus and prometheus_template directives.

• Detailed information and metrics for groups of stream upstream servers in the statistics interface provided by the api directive.

• The resolve option of the server directive in the stream module’s upstream block that allows to monitor changes to the list of IP addresses corresponding to a domain name, and automatically update it without the need of reloading configuration.

• The service option of the server directive in the stream module’s upstream block that allows to retrieve lists of addresses from DNS SRV records, with basic priority support.

• Access to the contents of configuration files used by the current generation of worker processes via the interface provided by the api directive with the api_config_files directive enabled.

• Display of the configuration generation number in process titles, which allows to monitor the success of configuration reloads and the number of previous worker process generations using the ps utility.

• All functionality of nginx 1.25.2.

Bugfix

• Compilation failed when ./configure options --without-http_upstream_zone_module or --without-stream_upstream_zone_module were used; the bug had appeared in 1.2.0.

Change

• Now appname angie is used when loading the OpenSSL configuration.

Angie 1.2.0

30.05.2023

Features

• In the HTTP and stream proxy modules, the ability to specify multiple certificates with different types (RSA and ECDSA) and corresponding keys using the proxy_ssl_certificate and proxy_ssl_certificate_key directives.
