Tekton Dashboard and Webhooks Extension release v0.7.0

This is the Triggers 0.5 supporting release that also supports Pipelines 0.11, 0.12, and 0.13. We've seen no problems with Triggers 0.4 either.

Lots of useful bug fixes and features here, such as:

• Triggers 0.5 support in the Dashboard and Webhooks Extension
• Update to Carbon 10.12
• Fix character encoding of displayed Secrets username column
• Fix the validation of PipelineResources in CreateTaskRun
• Add more translated strings
• Stop creation of non-existent Tasks being used in TaskRuns
• Lots of backend changes are in that lay the foundations for future Dashboard releases that allow single-namespace only installs
• Conditions are now available to view as a resource
• Fix for extra characters displayed on an Import Resources tooltip
• Removed very noisy sanitizing secret debug message

Note that with the introduction of Triggers and Pipeline namespace lookup flags, it’s now possible to have the versions of these components detected in different namespaces by the Tekton Dashboard.

To accomodate the variety of installation methods, you can change the lookup location with the following command (this assumes you already created the openshift-pipelines namespace first if it didn't exist, with oc create ns openshift-pipelines).

curl -L https://github.com/tektoncd/dashboard/releases/download/v0.7.0/openshift-tekton-dashboard-release.yaml\
| sed -e 's/--pipelines-namespace=openshift-pipelines/--pipelines-namespace=tekton-pipelines/g' \
| sed -e 's/--triggers-namespace=openshift-pipelines/--triggers-namespace=tekton-pipelines/g' \
| kubectl apply -f - 

In this case, the lookup namespace will be tekton-pipelines, even on OpenShift - and this is especially useful if you’re installing using a mechanism that results in the Tekton deployments being in tekton-pipelines - which is currently where Tekton is installed into when you do not use the OpenShift Pipelines operator.

The OpenShift Pipelines operator uses the openshift-pipelines namespace and as such no changes will be required.

Look out for improvements to our install mechanism in a future release - there are plenty of ways to install Tekton and we're doing our best to accomodate them all.

Tekton Dashboard and Webhooks Extension release v0.6.1.5

We plan for this to be the last in the line of the Triggers 0.4 supporting releases - this continues to support Tekton Pipelines 0.11 and 0.12.

The difference between this and the v0.6.1.4 release is that an improvement has been made to the way steps are handled for PipelineRuns.

There should be fewer instances where steps are mislabelled as "Not run".

You can find more details at #1438.

Tekton Dashboard and Webhooks Extension release v0.6.1.6

This contains a bug fix only for the webhooks extension - the Dashboard yaml/image is unchanged from v0.6.1.5, so you're welcome to use that still if you're not planning to use the extension. This release ensures the correct namespace is used for the monitor TaskRun and its resources on OpenShift. This isn't marked as a proper release simply because you may be content not picking it up if you are not using the webhooks extension.

Tekton Dashboard and Webhooks Extension security release v0.6.1.4

This is another security patch - we figured it'd be quite difficult to do on top of v0.6.1.3 but @AlanGreene proved us wrong 😄

This should be the last for a while!

Tekton Pipelines 0.12, 0.11, and Triggers 0.4 are supported. Note that this release involves the CSRF secure cookie for the first time. If you see invalid CSRF token messages, make sure the flag is true and you're accessing the Dashboard through a secure endpoint over TLS (typically a Route on OpenShift, or Ingress). If you're looking to port-forward to access the Dashboard from, say, an npm run start, the setting must be false.

Let us know if you do find any issues either way, thanks
