    Hello Brightside community!

    The Brightside team is pleased to announce the release of Brightside v4.0.6.

    This release includes:

    • An additional Zowe V2 conformant Broadcom Product Plug-in

    • DBM for Db2 Plug-in for Zowe CLI enhancements

    • Endevor Bridge for Git Plug-in for Zowe CLI bug fixes

    • Zowe 2.7 enhancements and fixes

      • Zowe CLI enhancements and fixes

      • Zowe CLI Imperative Framework enhancements and fixes

    Zowe V2 Conformant Broadcom Product Plug-in

     

    The IDMS Plug-in for Zowe CLI provides the ability to execute and automate IDMS commands and admin tasks. You can manage IDMS by using common tools, modern integrated development environments (IDEs), or by writing scripts or programs that can be incorporated within automation for continuous integration/continuous development (CI/CD) workflows.

    DBM for Db2 Plug-in for Zowe CLI enhancements

    • Support for the impact report in the compare ddl command.

    • The --output-recovery-script alias for the execute compare-script command.

      • An addition to existing --output-recovery-file parameter.

      • References in terminal and command help were changed to use the term "script."

    Endevor Bridge for Git Plug-in for Zowe CLI bug fixes

    • Full support for v4 mapping

    • Updated dependencies

    Zowe v2.7 enhancements and fixes

     

    Zowe CLI v7.11.0 includes the following updates:

     

    • Enhancement: Added support for a CLI specific environment variable file. [#1484]

    • Enhancement: Added support for downloading job spool content in binary and record formats. [zowe-explorer #2060]

    • Fix: Updated Imperative to include fixes in version 5.8.2.

    • Fix: Fix in employing --context-lines option for all diff/compare commands. Fixed broken --seqnum option implementation. [#1529]

    • Fix: Changed default value for modify-jobs option in the zowe jobs command group to 2.0. This change results in calls to z/OSMF becoming synchronous, and a successful response from the modify, cancel, and delete commands indicates the requested action was completed successfully. [#1459]

    • Fix: Enabled option to download output from a submitted job with the -d flag. The -e flag now enables changes to file extension as originally intended. [#729]

    Zowe CLI Imperative Framework v5.9.0 includes the following updates:

    • Enhancement: Added ProfileInfo.removeKnownProperty, a convenience method for removing properties in addition to ProfileInfo.updateKnownProperty. [#917]

    • Enhancement: Allowed type IProfArgValue to be of type undefined to support removing properties more easily. [#917]

    • Enhancement: Added ~/.<cli_name>.env.json file to provide environment variables to the Imperative framework during Imperative initialization. This includes the following updates:

      • Allowing sites without environment variable access to specify process specific environment variables

      • Changing require daemon reload to take effect

      • SDK method is available as part of EnvFileUtils export

    • Fix: Fixed web help not showing top-level options like --version for the zowe command. [#927]

    • Fix: Removed --help-examples option from CLI help for commands since it only applies to groups. [#928]

    • Fix: Fixed npm not found on zowe plugins install when using daemon mode in Windows. [zowe-cli#1615]

    • Fix: Fixed --help-examples option failing on command groups. [zowe-cli#1617]
