I'm pleased to announce the release of pgAdmin 4 v1.3. Users are advised to upgrade as soon as possible.
This release contains nearly 40 bug fixes, largely focussed in the following areas: - Query Tool efficiency. The JSON formatting used by the query tool has been changed to dramatically decrease the size of the data transferred to the UI. In relatively simple tests of a joined query on pg_class and pg_attribute, the JSON size was reduced by >75%. The changes made mean that the savings increase as the number of rows and/or columns in the resultset increase. - Unicode and multi-byte handling is vastly improved, with a lot of effort going into ensuring that the underlying Python version makes no difference in behaviour. There are still a handful of minor edge-cases remaining that will be addressed in future releases. - Issues with external process management that affected backup/restore/import/export and maintenance operations should now be resolved. Significant investigation led to the conclusion that one of the dependency libraries used by pgAdmin failed to operate correctly when used in forked processes, in some circumstances. The process management code has been rewritten (largely in v1.2) and remaining issues seen in the field are believed to be resolved in this release. - An issue with the desktop runtime has been resolved to ensure that the front end user interface is properly authenticated to the back end server. This could present a security issue for users running on multi-user systems in desktop mode (e.g. a Windows or X terminal server). Users on single user desktops or running pgAdmin in server mode were not affected. Thanks to Bruno Friedmann for reporting this issue and helping test the fix. - Various other smaller issues in SQL generation and display of certain data types were also resolved.
