POLAR_LOG now supports multiple log levels
  • Previously we supported POLAR_LOG=trace and POLAR_LOG=on, both of which enabled slightly different but verbose “TRACE”-level logging of the execution of queries and their constituent goals within the Polar VM.
  • POLAR_LOG=on was slightly less verbose than POLAR_LOG=trace but still produced a voluminous output which made it hard to parse and follow the execution of a particular query.
  • To enable easier query debugging we have broken out POLAR_LOG into new discrete INFO and TRACE levels. Specifying POLAR_LOG=info will cause Polar to emit a more concise log output intended to be consumed by developers as they build and debug their Polar policies. The more verbose TRACE output is still available through POLAR_LOG=trace. Check out our documentation for more information on tracing.

Other bugs & improvements

  • Fixed a variable scope bug affecting the forall operator that caused affected queries to fail with an UnhandledPartial error.
  • Subsequent unification of incompatibly type-constrained variables will now fail correctly.
  • The operators not, forall, or, <, <=, >, and >= can now be used with data filtering.
  • Fixed an issue with incompatible types being assigned to variables during rule matching.

Second parameter of Oso.query() API changed from bindings to options

Pre-seeding the Polar VM with bindings for a query is a bit of an advanced use case, but if you were previously passing bindings to Oso.query():

const bindings = new Map([['x', 1]]);
oso.query('f(x)', bindings);

You’ll need to update that call to pass bindings as a key in the new QueryOpts object:

const bindings = new Map([['x', 1]]);
oso.query('f(x)', { bindings });

Other bugs & improvements

  • Thanks to @Kn99HN for adding the acceptExpression query flag to the Node.js lib!
