+Title: Cockpit 0.77 Released
+Date: 2015-09-23 21:23
+Tags: cockpit, linux, technical
+Slug: cockpit-0.77
+Summary: Cockpit releases every week. This week it was 0.77
+
+Cockpit releases every week. This week it was 0.77
+
+### Componentizing Cockpit
+
+Marius and Stef completed a long running refactoring task of splitting
+Cockpit into components.
+
+In an age long gone Cockpit used to be one monolithic piece of HTML and
+javascript. Over the last year we've steadily refactored to split this
+out so various components can be loaded optionally and/or from different
+servers depending on capabilities and operating system versions.
+
+Marius also removed a cockpitd DBus service that we've also been moving
+away from. Cockpit wants to talk to system APIs and not install its own
+API wrappers like cockpitd.
+
+
+### The URLs changed
+
+Because of the above, we unfortunately had to change the URLs. But we've
+taken the opportunity to make them a lot simpler and cleaner.

+
+### Authentication when Embedding Cockpit
+
+Stef worked on partitioning the cockpit authentication so that embedders
+of Cockpit components don't need to share authentication state with a
+normal instance of Cockpit loaded in a browser.

+
+### Deleting and Adjusting Kubernetes Objects
+
+Subin implemented deletion kubernetes objects, and adjust things like
+the number of replicas in Replication Controllers.

+
+
+### Warning when too many machines
+
+Cockpit now gives a warning when adding "too many" machines to the
+dashboard. We've set the warning to 20 machines, but various operating
+systems can set this warning to be lower.

+### From the Future
+
+Andreas did designs for managing the SSH keys loaded for use when connecting to machines:

+### Cockpit Guide
+
+The Cockpit Guide has been updated and includes information about how
+various features are implemented, and what sort of privileges they use
+on the system.

+Here's a link to [the guide](http://files.cockpit-project.org/guide/latest/) or you can take a look at
+the [privileges docs](http://files.cockpit-project.org/guide/latest/privileges.html).
+

+
+
+### CPU usage issue
+
+A CPU usage bug in Cockpit 0.77 was fixed.
+
+
