[ls_content_block id=”385″]

This release has a couple new features, as well as some bug fixes.  It’s getting closer.  It also has added a couple new items to my “to-do” list.

Bug Fixes

  • No longer crashes when selecting certain topologies
  • Fixed an error when replacing bookmarks in the EZ ps1 files

New Features

  • Changed Versions and Typologies to be dynamic based on configurations available. This will allow the addition of new versions/configs with a single file change (for now)
  • Addition of Dynamic Field values and defaults.  Much like SIF-less 1, when you change the prefix, it updates the corresponding field values for it.  This is stored in the form of a bookmark in the ConfigurationManfest file in a defaultValue attribute.
  • Added in Sitecore 9.0 Update 2 for the configurations

New on the Wish List

  • Split the stupid ConfigurationManifest into multiple files.  It’s a bugger.
  • Change the Uninstall feature to use native powershell and remove the dependency on SIF-specific modules.  (until there is the ability to do conditional steps at runtime)

Thanks to the community peeps who helped find and crush these bugs. It’s appreciated!
