This page announces which endpoints and features will be breaking in the upcoming major release. Users of the Varnish Controller are advised to implement the alternatives. Are you only using the UI? Then no action is needed, these changes are mostly regarding configuration, API endpoints and CLI commands.
The following arguments will be removed from the Varnish Controller Agent in version 7.0.0, support for the new -stats-filter is added in version 6.4.0. We recommend to move to this new argument instead of the following:
-agent-stats-filter is replaced by -stats-filter, can be used as is in the new argument.-vclgroup-stats-filter is replaced by -stats-filter, defined filters need to be prefixed with VBE.*..-accounting-stats-filter is replaced by -stats-filter, defined filters need to be prefixed with ACCG.*.total..-accounting-stats-keys is replaced by -stats-filter, define the counters you want to track of your accounting key with the following prefix ACCG.*.<insert_your_key>.<your_counter_name>.The -stats-filter matches on the whole accounting key and has support for wildcards, like the previous statistics keys. Multiple wildcards in the same filter are supported.
CLI
The following flags for the vcli will be replaced in a future major release. Support for both will be in place from 6.0, it is however recommended to start migrating to the new flags.
cidr-to-tag for CIDR routes will be replaced by cidr.cidr-to-tag-csv for CIDR routes will be replaced by cidr-csv.asn-to-tag for ASN routes will be replaced by asn.asn-to-tag-csv for ASN routes will be replaced by asn-csv.geolocation-to-tag for Geolocation routes will be replaced by geolocation.geolocation-to-tag-csv for Geolocation routes will be replaced by geolocation-csv.API-GW
varnishstat endpoints are renamed to stats as they no longer hold just Varnish Statistics. As of version 5 there is support for both endpoints, the following API endpoints need to be changed:
/api/v1/agents/varnishstats to /api/v1/agents/stats/api/v1/agents/{id}/varnishstats to /api/v1/agents/{id}/stats/api/v1/domains/varnishstats to /api/v1/domains/stats/api/v1/domains/{id}/varnishstats to /api/v1/domains/{id}/stats/api/v1/routers/varnishstats to /api/v1/routers/stats/api/v1/routers/{id}/varnishstats to /api/v1/routers/{id}/stats/api/v1/tags/varnishstats to /api/v1/tags/stats/api/v1/tags/{id}/varnishstats to /api/v1/tags/{id}/stats/api/v1/vclgroups/varnishstats to /api/v1/vclgroups/stats/api/v1/vclgroups/{id}/varnishstats to /api/v1/vclgroups/{id}/statsCLI
