| # Release notes |
|
|
| Key features, improvements and bug fixes in the latest releases. |
|
|
| ## v0.14.1 |
|
|
| Released on November 29, 2024. |
|
|
| ### Improvements |
|
|
| Adds [Infinity's configuration file](https://github.com/infiniflow/ragflow/blob/main/docker/infinity_conf.toml) to facilitate integration and customization of [Infinity](https://github.com/infiniflow/infinity) as a document engine. From this release onwards, updates to Infinity's configuration can be made directly within RAGFlow and will take effect immediately after restarting RAGFlow using `docker compose`. [#3715](https://github.com/infiniflow/ragflow/pull/3715) |
|
|
| ### Fixed issues |
|
|
| This release fixes the following issues: |
|
|
| - Unable to display or edit content of a chunk after clicking it. |
| - A `'Not found'` error in Elasticsearch. |
| - Chinese text becoming garbled during parsing. |
| - A compatibility issue with Polars. |
| - A compatibility issue between Infinity and GraphRAG. |
|
|
| ## v0.14.0 |
|
|
| Released on November 26, 2024. |
|
|
| ### New features |
|
|
| - Supports [Infinity](https://github.com/infiniflow/infinity) or Elasticsearch (default) as document engine for vector storage and full-text indexing. [#2894](https://github.com/infiniflow/ragflow/pull/2894) |
| - Enhances user experience by adding more variables to the Agent and implementing auto-saving. |
| - Adds a three-step translation agent template, inspired by [Andrew Ng's translation agent](https://github.com/andrewyng/translation-agent). |
| - Adds an SEO-optimized blog writing agent template. |
| - Provides HTTP and Python APIs for conversing with an agent. |
| - Supports the use of English synonyms during retrieval processes. |
| - Optimizes term weight calculations, reducing the retrieval time by 50%. |
| - Improves task executor monitoring with additional performance indicators. |
| - Replaces Redis with Valkey. |
| - Adds three new UI languages (*contributed by the community*): Indonesian, Spanish, and Vietnamese. |
|
|
| ### Compatibility changes |
|
|
| As of this release, **service_config.yaml.template** replaces **service_config.yaml** for configuring backend services. Upon Docker container startup, the environment variables defined in this template file are automatically populated and a **service_config.yaml** is auto-generated from it. [#3341](https://github.com/infiniflow/ragflow/pull/3341) |
| |
| This approach eliminates the need to manually update **service_config.yaml** after making changes to **.env**, facilitating dynamic environment configurations. |
|
|
| :::danger IMPORTANT |
| Ensure that you [upgrade **both** your code **and** Docker image to this release](https://ragflow.io/docs/dev/upgrade_ragflow#upgrade-ragflow-to-the-most-recent-officially-published-release) before trying this new approach. |
