The v0.17.1-beta minor release focuses on enhancing stability, performance, and usability. The Flight interface now supports the GetSchema API and s3, ftp, sftp, http, https, and databricks data connectors have added support for a client_timeout parameter.

Highlights in v0.17.1-beta​

Flight API GetSchema: The GetSchema API is now supported by the Flight interface. The schema of a dataset can be retrieved using GetSchema with the PATH or CMD FlightDescriptor types. The CMD FlightDescriptor type is used to get the schema of an arbitrary SQL query as the CMD bytes. The PATH FlightDescriptor type is used to retrieve the schema of a dataset.

Client Timeout: A client_timeout parameter has been added for Data Connectors: ftp, sftp, http, https, and databricks. When defined, the client timeout configures Spice to stop waiting for a response from the data source after the specified duration. The default timeout is 30 seconds.

datasets:
  - from: ftp://remote-ftp-server.com/path/to/folder/
    name: my_dataset
    params:
      file_format: csv
      # Example client timeout
      client_timeout: 30s
      ftp_user: my-ftp-user
      ftp_pass: ${secrets:my_ftp_password}

Breaking Changes​

TLS is now required to be explicitly enabled. Enable TLS on the command line using --tls-enabled true:

spice run -- --tls-enabled true --tls-certificate-file /path/to/cert.pem --tls-key-file /path/to/key.pem

Or in the spicepod.yml with enabled: true:

runtime:
  tls:
    # TLS explicitly enabled
    enabled: true
    certificate_file: /path/to/cert.pem
    key_file: /path/to/key.pem
