Version 1.6.0 - 29 Feb 2016
- Support for streaming replication connection through the
streaming_conninfo server option
- Support for the streaming_archiver option that allows Barman to
receive WAL files through PostgreSQL's native streaming protocol.
When set to 'on', it relies on pg_receivexlog to receive WAL data,
reducing Recovery Point Objective. Currently, WAL streaming is an
additional feature (standard log archiving is still required)
- Implement the receive-wal command that, when streaming_archiver is
on, wraps pg_receivexlog for WAL streaming. Add --stop option to
stop receiving WAL files via streaming protocol. Add --reset option
to reset the streaming status and restart from the current xlog
in Postgres.
- Automatic management (startup and stop) of receive-wal command via
cron command
- Support for the path_prefix configuration option
- Introduction of the archiver option (currently fixed to on) which
enables continuous WAL archiving for a specific server, through log
shipping via PostgreSQL's archive_command
- Support for streaming_wals_directory and errors_directory options
- Management of WAL duplicates in archive-wal command and integration
with check command
- Verify if pg_receivexlog is running in check command when
streaming_archiver is enabled
- Verify if failed backups are present in check command
- Accept compressed WAL files in incoming directory
- Add support for the pigz compressor (thanks to Stefano Zacchiroli
zack@upsilon.cc)
- Implement pygzip and pybzip2 compressors (based on an initial idea
of Christoph Moench-Tegeder christoph@2ndquadrant.de)
- Creation of an implicit restore point at the end of a backup
- Current size of the PostgreSQL data files in barman status
- Permit archive_mode=always for PostgreSQL 9.5 servers (thanks to
Christoph Moench-Tegeder christoph@2ndquadrant.de)
- Complete refactoring of the code responsible for connecting to
PostgreSQL
- Improve messaging of cron command regarding sub-processes
- Native support for Python >= 3.3
- Changes of behaviour:
- Stop trashing WAL files during archive-wal (commit:e3a1d16)
- Bug fixes:
- Atomic WAL file archiving (#9 and #12)
- Propagate "-c" option to any Barman subprocess (#19)
- Fix management of backup ID during backup deletion (#22)
- Improve archive-wal robustness and log messages (#24)
- Improve error handling in case of missing parameters
Version 1.5.1 - 16 Nov 2015
- Add support for the 'archive-wal' command which performs WAL
maintenance operations on a given server
- Add support for "per-server" concurrency of the 'cron' command
- Improved management of xlog.db errors
- Add support for mixed compression types in WAL files (SF.net#61)
- Bug fixes:
- Avoid retention policy checks during the recovery
- Avoid 'wal_level' check on PostgreSQL version < 9.0 (#3)
- Fix backup size calculation (#5)

Version 1.4.1 - 05 May 2015
* Fix for WAL archival stop working if first backup is EMPTY
(Closes: #64)
* Fix exception during error handling in Barman recovery (Closes:
#65)
* After a backup, limit cron activity to WAL archiving only
(Closes: #62)
* Improved robustness and error reporting of the backup delete
command (Closes: #63)
* Fix computation of WAL production ratio as reported in the
show-backup command
* Improved management of xlogb file, which is now correctly fsynced
when updated. Also, the rebuild-xlogdb command now operates on a
temporary new file, which overwrites the main one when finished.
* Add unit tests for dateutil module compatibility
* Modified Barman version following PEP 440 rules and added support
of tests in Python 3.4

Version 1.4.0 - 26 Jan 2015
* Incremental base backup implementation through the reuse_backup
global/server option. Possible values are off (disabled,
default), copy (preventing unmodified files from being
transferred) and link (allowing for deduplication through hard
links).
* Store and show deduplication effects when using reuse_backup=
link.
* Added transparent support of pg_stat_archiver (PostgreSQL 9.4) in
check, show-server and status commands.
* Improved administration by invoking WAL maintenance at the end of
a successful backup.
* Changed the way unused WAL files are trashed, by differentiating
between concurrent and exclusive backup cases.
* Improved performance of WAL statistics calculation.
* Treat a missing pg_ident.conf as a WARNING rather than an error.
* Refactored output layer by removing remaining yield calls.
* Check that rsync is in the system path.
* Include history files in WAL management.
* Improved robustness through more unit tests.
* Fixed bug #55: Ignore fsync EINVAL errors on directories.
* Fixed bug #58: retention policies delete.
