MySQL Shell 1.0.9 GA has been released
Posted by: Jocelyn Ramilison

Dear MySQL Users,

This is the first GA version of MySQL Shell (a component of the MySQL
Server). The MySQL Shell is provided under Oracle's dual-license.

MySQL Shell is an interactive JavaScript, Python and SQL console
interface, supporting development and administration for the MySQL
Server. It provides scriptable API that supports the creation and
management of MySQL InnoDB clusters, as well as a modern fluent CRUD
API for the MySQL Document Store.

The AdminAPI provides an integrated solution for high availability and
scalability using InnoDB based MySQL databases, without requiring
advanced MySQL expertise.

The Document Store DevAPI enables developers and DBAs to create
"schema-less" JSON document collections and perform Create, Update,
Read, Delete (CRUD) operations on those collections with little to
no knowledge of the SQL language.

Additionally, MySQL Shell provides partial compatibility with the
mysql command line client by supporting many of the same command line
options. As with the mysql command line, MySQL Shell can also be used
to connect to and send SQL commands to pre-5.7.12 versions of the
MySQL server using the standard MySQL network protocol.

For more information about how to configure and work with an InnoDB cluster
see https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/en/mysql-innodb-cluster-userguide.html

For more information about how to use MySQL Shell and the MySQL Document
Store support see https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/en/document-store.html

For full documentation on MySQL Server, MySQL Shell and related topics,
see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/en/

If you want to write applications that use the the CRUD based X DevAPI
use the latest MySQL Connectors for your language of choice. You can
also find documentation about Connectors in the MySQL documentation
site.

We welcome and appreciate your feedback and bug reports, see

Enjoy!


Changes in MySQL Shell 1.0.9 (2017-04-12)

   Functionality Added or Changed

     * In SQL mode, support was added for \G to display the SQL
       result vertically.
       The --vertical (or -E) command line option was added to
       display all result sets vertically. This sets the
       shell.options.outputFormat variable to "vertical". (Bug
       #24848230)

   Bugs Fixed

     * The MYSQLPROVISION environment variable is no longer
       supported or required by MySQL Shell. (Bug #25733261)

     * mysqlprovision copyright text was missing the current
       year. (Bug #25725965)

     * Access to schema objects using property syntax
       (db.collection) was not automatically available. (Bug
       #25721628)

     * The mysqlprovision binary was not built by default when
       compiling from source. (Bug #25699824)

     * Executing print with the --execute option could cause
       MySQL Shell to stop unexpectedly. (Bug #25684798)

     * SQL import operations would fail if multiple-line
       comments were present in the SQL being imported. (Bug
       #25637606)

     * When using dba.configureLocalInstance(), error messages
       generated due to a configuration file update failure
       would not report the cause of failure but a misleading
       error message of its core code. (Bug #25593140)

     * On Windows, error handling was improved to better notify
       the user when the system's Python does not support SSL.
       (Bug #25534469)

     * dba.checkInstanceConfiguration() was not documented in
       the dba global variable help. (Bug #25487579)

     * A dissolved cluster object was not being correctly set as
       invalid, meaning it was possible to access its methods
       and properties. The fix ensures that dissolved cluster
       objects are correctly detected and a new error similar to
       Can't call function 'function_name' is generated when
       executed on a dissolved cluster. (Bug #25141048)

     * Global DB object properties could change their semantics
       at runtime. For example, the property giving the schema
       name could later be displayed as a table object. This was
       related to how cached objects were given precedence. Now,
       on object retrieval, the cache is only accessed if the
       requested member is not a fixed member of the class. (Bug
       #24964342)

     * The addInstance() method did not function on remote MySQL
       instances. (Bug #24832550)

     * MySQL Shell was not detecting changes made manually to
       the cluster topology to use Group Replication
       multi-primary mode
       (group_replication_single_primary_mode=OFF). MySQL Shell
       was not showing the read-write abilities of the
       instances. (Bug #24756046)

     * On Unix, MySQL Shell was showing the password used to run
       the command in the operating system process list.
