What's new?​

Server-side UPSERT is now the default behavior​

In v1.13.0, we introduced the --experimental-use-server-side-upsert option to enable the upsert mode of the Update Records API.

Starting with this release, server-side UPSERT is now the default behavior. It includes minor improvements over the experimental implementation.

Depending on the execution conditions, this change may improve import performance and reduce the number of API requests.

The --experimental-use-server-side-upsert option is now deprecated.
Specifying this option in this version will show a warning (not an error), but the option will be removed entirely in a future release.

What's new?​

cli-kintone retries download/upload attachment files on 5xx error​

File upload/download API requests may occasionally fail for various reasons. This update helps avoid having to redo the entire process due to these failures. Now, cli-kintone automatically retries on the following API errors.

• Download File (GET /k/v1/file.json)
  • 5xx errors
• Upload File (POST /k/v1/file.json)
  • 5xx errors

We use an exponential backoff with jitter as our retry strategy.

What's new?​

The --experimental-use-server-side-upsert option is now available with the record import command (Experimental)​

We have implemented the --experimental-use-server-side-upsert option, which executes the record import command using the upsert option of the bulk record update API

Previously, cli-kintone has been running with its own upsert mode, but by using --experimental-use-server-side-upsert, there is a possibility that the performance of the record import command will improve.

Specify as follows.

$ cli-kintone record import --base-url http://localhost --app xxx \
 --api-token xxx  \
 --file-path import.csv \
 --update-key レコード番号 \
 --experimental-use-server-side-upsert

We plan to enable this option by default once we have confirmed its stability.

cli-kintone plugin info​

plugin info is a command to see information of specified plugin.

cli-kintone plugin info --input ./dist/plugin.zip

# homepage: (not set)

cli-kintone plugin pack​

plugin pack is an alternative command to plugin-packer.

cli-kintone plugin pack --input ./src --output ./dist --private-key ./private.ppk
# output:
# [2024-12-04T09:15:32.481Z] WARN: [Experimental] This feature is under early development
# [2024-12-04T09:15:32.511Z] WARN: Property "homepage_url.en" is missing.
# [2024-12-04T09:15:32.967Z] INFO: The plugin file generated: plugin.zip

This command supports experimental new plugin system.
