##2013-11-13 - Version 2.1.0

###Summary

The most important changes in 2.1.0 are improvements to the my.cnf creation,

as well as providers.  Setting options to = true strips them to be just the

key name itself, which is required for some options.

The provider updates fix a number of bugs, from lowercase privileges to

deprecation warnings.

Last, the new hiera integration functionality should make it easier to

externalize all your grants, users, and, databases.  Another great set of

community submissions helped to make this release.

####Features

- Some options can not take a argument. Gets rid of the '= true' when an

option is set to true.

- Easier hiera integration:  Add hash parameters to mysql::server to allow

specifying grants, users, and databases.

####Bugfixes

- Fix an issue with lowercase privileges in mysql_grant{} causing them to be reapplied needlessly.

- Changed defaults-file to defaults-extra-file in providers.

- Ensure /root/.my.cnf is 0600 and root owned.

- database_user deprecation warning was incorrect.

- Add anchor pattern for client.pp

- Documentation improvements.

- Various test fixes.

##2013-10-21 - Version 2.0.1

###Summary

This is a bugfix release to handle an issue where unsorted mysql_grant{}

privileges could cause Puppet to incorrectly reapply the permissions on

each run.

####Bugfixes

- Mysql_grant now sorts privileges in the type and provider for comparison.

- Comment and test tweak for PE3.1.

##2013-10-14 - Version 2.0.0

###Summary

(Previously detailed in the changelog for 2.0.0-rc1)

This module has been completely refactored and works significantly different.

The changes are broad and touch almost every piece of the module.

See the README.md for full details of all changes and syntax.

Please remain on 1.0.0 if you don't have time to fully test this in dev.

* mysql::server, mysql::client, and mysql::bindings are the primary interface

classes.

* mysql::server takes an `override_options` parameter to set my.cnf options,

with the hash format: { 'section' => { 'thing' => 'value' }}

* mysql attempts backwards compatibility by forwarding all parameters to

mysql::server.

##2013-10-09 - Version 2.0.0-rc5

###Summary

Hopefully the final rc!  Further fixes to mysql_grant (stripping out the

cleverness so we match a much wider range of input.)

####Bugfixes

- Make mysql_grant accept '.*'@'.*' in terms of input for user@host.

##2013-10-09 - Version 2.0.0-rc4

###Summary

Bugfixes to mysql_grant and mysql_user form the bulk of this rc, as well as

ensuring that values in the override_options hash that contain a value of ''

are created as just "key" in the conf rather than "key =" or "key = false".

####Bugfixes

- Improve mysql_grant to work with IPv6 addresses (both long and short).

- Ensure @host users work as well as user@host users.

- Updated my.cnf template to support items with no values.
