Overview
MariaDB Connector/R2DBC is a non-blocking interface between Java applications and MariaDB Server. MariaDB Connector/R2DBC enables the development of Java 8+ applications for MariaDB database products.
MariaDB Connector/R2DBC 1.2.0 was released on 2024-02-23. This release is of GA (generally available) maturity. It is compatible with MariaDB Connector/R2DBC 1.1 and will therefore also be the maintenance path for version 1.1. This release is compatible with R2DBC 1.0.0 specification.
Notable Changes
New timezone option (R2DBC-93)
The new
timezone
option can have 3 types of values:disabled
(default) : connector doesn't change timezoneauto
: connector will set timezone connection variable to java default timezone<a java timezone>
: connector will set connection variable to the specified timezone. Compared toauto
, this avoids having some additional exchange with the server at connection creation
Examples:
r2dbc:mariadb://user:pwd@localhost:3306/db?timezone=+5:00 r2dbc:mariadb://user:pwd@localhost:3306/db?timezone=auto r2dbc:mariadb://user:pwd@localhost:3306/db?timezone=America/New_York
The recommended setting for
timezone
isauto
.
Add support for connection redirection (R2DBC-66)
With MariaDB Community Server 11.3.1 a new global variable
redirect_url
value has been added, supported format:{mariadb/mysql}://[<user>[:<password>]@]<host>[:<port>]/
When set, all existing connections will be redirected to the designated URL values when appropriate. A connection will only be redirected when no transaction is active.
Example for enabling the redirection:
set @@global.redirect_url="mariadb://somehost:3306/"
The redirection feature is enabled by default. It can be disabled by setting the new option
permitRedirect
to FALSE, which will result in ignoring the redirection URL.
Issues Fixed
Properly end connection (in place of RST TCP packet) (R2DBC-92)
Failover High availability mode
r2dbc:mariadb:[sequential|loadbalancing]://...
wrongly parsed (R2DBC-86)Compatibility with mariadb 11.1.1 (R2DBC-87)
Java 8 compatibility regression (R2DBC-88)
Ensure respecting server collation (R2DBC-91)
Session tracking wrong implementation when multiple system variable changes (R2DBC-94)
