Release Notes 4.3.1

What’s New

i18n for Published Parameters

You can now overwrite published parameters prompts for each tool via the tool configurations i18n settings. This means you can use different prompts for different languages:

app.json

"mapapps_etl": {

      "MapappsETLTools": [
       {
          "fmeServerConfig": {...},
          "fmeTool": {...},
          "fmeParameterOpts": {...}
          "id": "mapapps_tool_id",

           // optional: specify i18n values for each tool individually if necessary.
          "i18n": {
            "en": {
                // optional: localize/overwrite prompt of published parameters. The key is the parameter name in FME
                "fme_published_parameter": {
                    "opt_requesteremail": "Enter Mail Address"
                }
            },
            "de": {
                // optional: localize/overwrite prompt of published parameters. The key is the parameter name in FME
                "fme_published_parameter": {
                    "opt_requesteremail": "E-Mail Adresse eingeben"
                }
            }
          }
        }
    ]
}

Have a look at all possible app.json configurations: app.json Configuration

File uploads via published parameters

Previously, there was only one file upload available via the input configuration that required a published parameter mapapps_etl_files. It’s now also possible to create more file uploads that are shown in the published parameter step as parameters. This feature can be used if users should provide (optional) additional files, or if users want to provide multiple files that have to be distinguishable for the FME Workspace.

Update Notes

4.3.1

Log4J Security Patch

There haven’t been any changes to the map.apps bundles. However, the FME Server Proxy Servlet has been updated and should therefore be updated. You can ignore this relase, if you are not using the Proxy Servlet.

Bundles can be configured multiple times per app

Bundle functionality can be combined based on the use case

Workspace services and published parameters will be validated when selecting a workspace in the live configuration

New GUI for all Dialogs

FME Server connection possible without map.apps proxy

All unknown published parameter types default to text parameters

Published parameters for extent and source file can’t be chosen freely anymore. Instead, the default parameters mapapps_etl_extent, mapapps_etl_files have to be used.

Handling published parameters has been inverted. You do not have to enable all parameters that should be visible to the user. Only parameters that should not be visible have to be hidden. This makes changing workspaces much easier, since new FME parameters are automatically visible in map.apps ETL.
