Clio will be updated to. NET8 starting from 8.0.1.1. The Creatio platform will be updated to .NET 8 starting from 8.2.1, which will be released in December of this year.

In the 8.0.1.1 version, a flag --ts was added to show timestamps in the log messages:

clio ping env --ts

Thanks Federico Buffa for submitting a pull request on the Clio GitHub repository!

Hi!

We are excited to announce a new feature in Clio release 6.1.0.37: the Set application icon command! This new command allows you to easily set or update the application icon for your Creatio projects directly from the command line, ensuring your application meets the Creatio Marketplace requirement.

Example of using:

clio set-app-icon -p <APP_NAME> -i <ICON_PATH> -f <PACKAGE_FOLDER_PATH>

Replace <APP_NAME> with the name or code of your application, <ICON_PATH> with the actual path to your SVG icon file, and <PACKAGE_FOLDER_PATH> with the path to the folder containing your application packages.

P.S: Set application icon command is compatible with all Creatio versions 8.0+

Happy coding!

New Clio release version 6.1.0.22 extends clone-env operation for simple copy your packages from one environment to another. It can be used when you want to try your code on the new version of Creatio platform or check compatibility with another products.

To clone all packages from maintainer(s), run the following command.

clio clone-env --maintainer ATF --source SOURCE_ENV --target TARGET_ENV

If you want to try a new release of Creatio, use the exclude-maintainer argument to exclude all OOTB Creatio packages.

clio clone-env --exclude-maintainer Creatio,Terrasoft --source SOURCE_ENV --target TARGET_ENV

P.S In the future, we plan to release ability transfer features and settings between environments and transfer data sets.

New Clio release version 6.1.0.21 allows clone packages from one Creatio environment to another. 

clio clone-env --source Dev --target QA --working-directory [OPTIONAL PATH TO STORE]

The command creates a manifest from the source and target, calculates the difference between them, downloads the changed package from the source environment to the working directory (optional parameter), and installs it in the source environment.

Clio release version 6.1.0.20 provides the ability to customization your app-hubs with a branch-oriented strategy. Now you can define the following structure

To define a branch use the following arguments

clio publish-app --app-name Application_1 --branch master --app-version 1.0.4 --app-hub ./builds --repo-path .

Also, support branching was added to the apply-manifest command and you can specify the branch name in the yaml file\

NOTICE: If you use a naming convention requires a zip file name to be different than app code, then use aliases in manifest file

Clio version 6.1.0.19 provides new functions to find differences in system settings, features, and packages across two Creatio instances

clio show-diff --source ENV1 --target ENV2

to save the result to a file specify the file option as follows

clio show-diff --source ENV1 --target ENV2 --file "C:\manifests\diff-env1-env2.yaml"

P/S: This command finds all data from source source which not presented or has different values on the target environment

Clio version 6.1.0.13 was released. Now, you can add packages to the workspace with auto generate composable application descriptors.

// Init clio workspace
clio createw
 
// Add package to workspace
clio add-package MyApp -a True

If you have one application in the workspace, new packages will automatically be included in it.

// Init clio workspace
clio createw
 
// Add package and app metadata to the workspace
clio add-package MyApp -a True
 
// Add a package to the workspace and include it in MyApp
clio add-package MyPackage

This command can be used to add several applications to one workspace.

// Init clio workspace
clio createw
 
// Add first app to workspace
clio add-package MyApp1 -a True
 
// Add the second app to the workspace
clio add-package MyApp2 -a True

P.S: Error of work with temp directories in multiple Clio instances at one time was fixed

Clio release 6.1.0.12 provides a command to create a state manifest for the Creatio instance and store the configuration of web services and feature states.

clio save-state "D:\manifest\myinstance-creatio-manifest.yaml" -e MyInstance

Storing this file in Git can be used to control instance changes. In future releases, the manifest file will store sys-settings values, applications, and packages, and it will also clone environment settings to clean Creatio instances.

P.S: Also the ability to work with HotFix mode was added to Clio commands. To enable/disable it use the following command

# To enable hot-fix mode for a package  
clio pkg-hotfix <PACKAGE_NAME> true -e <ENVIRONMENT_NAME> 
 
# To disable hot-fix mode for a package 
clio pkg-hotfix <PACKAGE_NAME> false -e <ENVIRONMENT_NAME>
