Dependency Management

For development using the Liferay Platform, update Liferay Workspace to use the  latest dependencies, by adding the following line to the build.gradle file:

dependencies {
	compileOnly group: "com.liferay.portal", name: "release.portal.api"
}

All portal dependencies are now defined with a single declaration. When using an IDE such as Eclipse or IntelliJ all apis are immediately available in autocomplete for immediate use.  

By setting a product info key property it will be possible to update all dependencies to a new version by updating the liferay.workspace.product property in the liferay workspace projects gradle.property file:

liferay.workspace.product = portal-7.4-ga27

Search

Improved language-specific sorting in search results using icu_collation_keyword type for sortable fields on Elasticsearch

This new icu_collation_keyword type allows sorting using the correct collation rules of each language for more information see: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/7.17/analysis-icu-collation-keyword-field.html​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

If you update your existing Liferay installation, this change won't be applied until a full reindex is executed and Elasticsearch mappings are recreated.

A full reindex is not mandatory, current installations will continue to use the old mappings with no defects.

Please, refer to the ticket for more details and Breaking Changes notes on how it may impact customization.
