Versions matrix

Maintenance policy​

The last two major releases are supported. Hence as of now 1.4.4 and 1.3.4 are supported. Crowdsec is open-source, and as such, we may not be aware of all the channels of crowdsec distribution. Our official distribution channel is packagecloud.io for packages, and github

Note: There is a subtile difference between armel, armhf and armv7: armel and armhf are the ports name defined by debian, armel is available on armv6 capable processer and higher, and armhf is available on armv7 capable and higher.

Linux

Linux packages are maintained by CrowdSec and shipped through packagecloud.io repositories. Issues for packages have to be created directly against the crowdsec source repository. Packages are published automatically few hours after each new releases.

There are two public repositories:

Note: There is a version on official debian repository as well.

FreeBSD

FreeBSD ports are updated via requests to https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/

Anybody can open issues or even updates but most packages have an official maintainer (@mmetc for crowdsec). Issues are reviewed by maintainers, then by committers or by the ports management team. A proper review process is in place therefore updates can take a few days.

To see pending issues related to crowdsec or the bouncers, search "crowdsec". To see closed issues as well, search for "ALL crowdsec"

The state of the packages for the several FreeBSD versions and architectures can be seen at https://www.freshports.org/

Usually packages apprear in the repository updates (quarterly or latest), but if required they can be installed directly, for example:

$ pkg add https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:12:amd64/latest/All/crowdsec-1.4.3.pkg

The repository for work-in-progress ports is https://github.com/crowdsecurity/packaging-freebsd, once tested they are submitted in bugzilla.

The following packages have been ported so far:

[1] read-only mirror of https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/ also on https://gitlab.com/FreeBSD/freebsd-ports

OPNsense

OPNsense has its own port tree, which tracks the main branch from freebsd: https://github.com/opnsense/ports Updates are frequent (often daily) but can be delayed for code freeze or holidays. The source of the crowdsec plugin is in https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/tree/master/security/crowdsec and it depends on the crowdsec and firewall bouncer packages. New versions are pushed via pull requests on the github repository.

Windows

CrowdSec Windows releases are available for download few minutes after releasing directly on the release page of github.

We do our best to keep an up to date version in chocolatey repository as well. It has go through a moderation process, so we don't have any grasp on the publication timeline.

Issues have to be filed directly against the crowdsec source repository
