Version 3.4.7

Released: April 28 2020

Changes

Checkouts

The checkouts app was updated to capture and display attempts to check in documents that are not checked out and to check out documents that are already checked out. The code to detect and avoid these situations existed but the way they are presented to user were improved.

Docker

The command to change the owner of the volume, is now run if there is a change in the UID or GID of the container's user.

Documentation

The pip option [--no-use-pep517]{.pre} has been removed from the installation and version 3.4 upgrade documents.

The outdated development version deployment instructions were removed.

A new Mayan EDMS Request for Comment was added. MERC 0007 defines the new repository branch layout.

User interface

The dropdown menu text was darkened to increase contrast and legibility.

Workflows

The field_order of the HTTP workflow action was fixed. This blocked adding or editing new HTTP actions.

Other

Most usage of self.get_object() was changed to a direct reference of self.object for a minor speed and memory optimization.
