Today we released version 4.13.6 of the projectdoc Toolbox for Confluence on the Atlassian Marketplace!

projectdoc supports agile teams creating and maintaining project documentation. It provides templates and tools to improve the collaboration of team members.

This is release provides improvements so that it can be used on Confluence versions fixing Confluence Security Advisory 2022-06-02.

A previous micro or bugfix version of Confluence did introduce a non-backwards compatible library that will result in a runtime failure of the projectdoc Toolbox. This version of the projectdoc Toolbox fixes this issue and allows to run on all supported versions of Confluence. 

We recommend to move to version 5 of the projectdoc Toolbox. This upgrade is a major step and requires careful planning. We released this version of version 4 to not urge customers to do the upgrade in haste because of the Confluence Security Advisory 2022-06-02.

For more details refer to projectdoc Toolbox 4.13.6 Release Notes.

Today we released version 5.0 of the projectdoc Toolbox for Confluence on the Atlassian Marketplace!

projectdoc supports agile teams creating and maintaining project documentation. It provides templates and tools to improve the collaboration of team members.

This major update includes changes to the database tables containing projectdoc documents. The rebuild process will be started automatically by default when updating the app. Dependent on the amount of projectdoc documents on your Confluence server, this process will require quite a long time (half an hour to several hours) to complete. Although the process runs in the background, the results of queries on projectdoc documents are not reliable until the process completes successfully.

We highly recommend to run this process on your test system to estimate the time for the rebuild of projectdoc documents on your system.

The projectdoc Toolbox 5.0 Release Notes provide you with all information required to run the update from version 4 to version 5. Please read these release notes carefully before updating the projectdoc Toolbox!

This version is a preparation step to support Confluence Data Center (DC). We are about to start the approval process for DC and once this process is completed, a DC version of the projectdoc Toolbox will be available on the Atlassian Marketplace. Customers with a DC configuration will then need to move to a DC license of the projectdoc Toolbox. More information on Data Center Pricing & Licensing or Collaborate without compromise on DC can be found at Atlassian.

For more details refer to projectdoc Toolbox 5.0 Release Notes.

We released the Apptools Maven Plugin in version 0.12.0!

This plugin for Maven is used to interface with the Universal Plugin Manager's (UPM) REST API to deploy apps (formerly known as add-ons or plugins) to a remote Confluence server. It is a tool for developers to deploy a number of JARs/OBRs to an environment, like development, test, pre-production. The plugin may operate on a single project, handling the artifact of this project, or may be based on a POM project that defines a set of apps to be deployed to different environments.

This new version provides a new goal to download artifacts to a local folder. This makes it easier to zip all artifacts for an environment in case the tool cannot be used in that environment.

For more information please  visit the tool's website!

We continue with the migration of the projectdoc Toolbox for Confluence Server to Confluence Data Center.

Our plan has been to provide a data center approved version of the projectdoc Toolbox in 2021. We decided to change the representation of projectdoc documents in the backend to cope with expected larger user bases. This implied that we need to migrate the data in a reasonable time and provide some tooling in case a migration fails. Besides other items on our todo list this has required more time than we originally expected. So we can say that we have released an alpha version of the projectdoc Toolbox and are about to release its beta version with all the features required for data center. After this beta release we will continue with the Atlassian Approval Process.

We are planning to provide a Data Center version of the projectdoc Toolbox in the second half of 2022.

If you would like to take part in the beta test of the projectdoc Toolbox 5, please get in touch!

Vulnerabilities to the Log4J library have been reported recently that may be exploited by attackers to get full control over the affected system.

The projectdoc Toolbox has no direct dependency to Log4J and does not add any configuration that would make the Confluence system vulnerable. It uses the logging service provided by Confluence through the SLF4J interface.
