What is Casdoor?

Casdoor is spending its release cadence moving auth checks from the client to the server

Casdoor is in a tight patch cadence: six tagged releases inside a week, most carrying a single commit. The substance is concentrated in identity enforcement rather than features - password rotation and MFA setup are now enforced server-side, admin updates to a user respect the column whitelist, sessions and tokens are revoked when a user is forbidden, and phone numbers are normalised before they are stored. The remainder is release plumbing and a PostgreSQL query fix.

What is roxygen2?

roxygen2 8.0 cut stringi out of the entire devtools dependency tree.

roxygen2 turns inline comments into R documentation and NAMESPACE files. The 8.0.0 release was as much about dependencies as features: dropping purrr, stringr and stringi means nothing in the devtools constellation pulls in stringi, long a persistent install obstacle on constrained Linux systems. 8.1.0 follows with markdown correctness work and cached link resolution.

Casdoor is spending its release cadence moving auth checks from the client to the server

◆ Current state

Casdoor is in a tight patch cadence: six tagged releases inside a week, most carrying a single commit. The substance is concentrated in identity enforcement rather than features - password rotation and MFA setup are now enforced server-side, admin updates to a user respect the column whitelist, sessions and tokens are revoked when a user is forbidden, and phone numbers are normalised before they are stored. The remainder is release plumbing and a PostgreSQL query fix.

◆ Where it's heading

Read together, these commits describe one job: closing the gap between what the console enforces and what the backend enforces. Several of them move a check that previously lived in the UI into the server, which is the work of a project being deployed into environments that audit it. New authentication providers and integrations have thinned relative to this hardening pass.

◆ Prediction

The next releases most likely continue the same sweep - remaining endpoints where an admin or user request is trusted more than the server verifies - rather than adding a new identity provider.

roxygen2 8.0 cut stringi out of the entire devtools dependency tree.

◆ Current state

roxygen2 turns inline comments into R documentation and NAMESPACE files. The 8.0.0 release was as much about dependencies as features: dropping purrr, stringr and stringi means nothing in the devtools constellation pulls in stringi, long a persistent install obstacle on constrained Linux systems. 8.1.0 follows with markdown correctness work and cached link resolution.

◆ Where it's heading

The package is investing in the documentation toolchain beneath it — a new rdtools package supplies cached indexes so link targets and inherited Rd topics resolve without repeated help() lookups. Running alongside is steady correction of markdown handling, where multibyte characters inside Rd tags had been corrupting everything that followed.

◆ Prediction

Expect more Rd processing to migrate into rdtools, and further link-resolution changes now that all generated links share a single code path.
