Every Go-implemented plugin's `:report --format json` now emits keys without the redundant `<plugin>-` head segment, matching the shape bash plugins have always emitted. The CLI flag names and `:set` semantics are unchanged. For backwards compatibility during the 0.38.x patch series, the legacy `<plugin>-<property>` keys are emitted side-by-side with the new keys, and a future major release will drop the legacy keys. `common.ReportSingleApp` is refactored to accept a `ReportSingleAppInput` struct with a `Validate()` method so the input is checked before any work runs, which also catches the latent `"docker options"` reportType bug at the API boundary.
The `ps` and `cron` plugins emitted `:report --format json` keys that
skipped the `<plugin>-` prefix or `-global-` infix used by every other
plugin, forcing external consumers to special-case those names. Rename
the affected report flags so they match the `<plugin>-global-<property>`
and `<plugin>-computed-<property>` convention introduced in 0.38.0, and
add the previously missing `computed-` siblings to both the per-app and
`--global` reports so the shape lines up with caddy, haproxy, and
traefik.
The docker-local scheduler wrote each app.json cron command verbatim into the dokku user's crontab, where cron's `bash -c` interpreted any shell metacharacters in the command on the host as the dokku user rather than inside the container. The crontab line is now `dokku cron:run <app> <cron-id>`, and the command is resolved from app.json and exec'd inside the container at run time. Commands containing shell operators are also rejected when app.json is validated at deploy time.
Renames the existing `## Internal properties` umbrella section to `## Properties` across all plugin docs and adds a new `### Settable properties` subsection enumerating every property accepted by each plugin's `:set` command. Each row lists scope, default, the actual `:report` flag shapes that surface the value, and a one-line description. The buildpacks plugin is included even though it uses `:set-property`, with a note in the subsection clarifying the legacy command name. Property lists, scopes, and report flags were verified against plugin source and the live dokku binary.
`cron:set --global` wrote the property but emitted `unknown flag: --global` because the post-set `scheduler-cron-write` trigger received `--global` as the appName arg, which pflag rejected before reaching the trigger body.
The trigger args now omit appName for global writes, and the `scheduler-k3s` cron-write trigger short-circuits when called without an app since per-app reconciliation requires a real app name. The docker-local trigger already regenerates the global crontab from all apps so global `mailfrom`/`mailto` are picked up without any further changes.
Recent Dokku changes invalidate a bunch of docs around where files need to be placed in order for Dokku to respect them. This doc change clarifies where files are extracted from in cases where source code is available, which should hopefully make users less confused about how the system works.
See https://railsnotes.xyz/blog/deploying-ruby-on-rails-with-dokku-redis-sidekiq-arm-docker-hetzner for the inspiration - I was reading through it and was like 'these docs are definitely incorrect...'.
