This release contains a few bug fixes, with the big feature being the addition of a service worker. This should make the app feel a bit more sprightly, and of course mean previously viewed pages can be viewed offline. There’s been some updates to the app.webmanifest file; you might need to clear your cache for these changes to be reflected before installing as a web app.

A few more bits of fallout from the Beta 10 release. Fixes header background colour in dark mode, correctly resolves the media store and the file upload component now correctly reports any errors encountered when uploading media.

There’s always something… This tiny release fixes a module resolution bug introduced in Beta 10:

• frontend: resolve path to css imported from node_modules (b369ced)

[!WARNING]
This release introduced a module resolution error that prevents the application from starting. This has been fixed in v1.0.0-beta.11

Another packed release, this time focused on improving the editing experience and uploading media files. These changes alone now make Indiekit a really compelling content management system, I think.

There was also a fairly messy diversion trying to fix and/or improve slug generation (follow the fun in #719 and #726). Doubt this’ll be the last of figuring out the best way to generate post slugs.

🚨 BREAKING CHANGES

• {uuid} path tokens are no longer supported
• {random} media path token is no longer supported
• {originalfile} media path token is now called {filename}

✨ New features

• The file upload component now allows images to be uploaded I’m the background, returning the path of the uploaded file. This allows images to be added to posts from within the editor (#721)
• Rich Markdown editor now used for content and summary fields (#728)
• Configure a separate content store for media files (#730)
• Option in Micropub media endpoint to transform files prior to uploading (only supports resizing, for now) (#700)
• S3-compatible content store plug-in (#725)
• Menu shortcuts to create a new post or upload a file when installed as a web app (#714)

💅 Improvements

• The Eleventy publication preset is now an option when creating a new configuration file.
• Requests are now compressed with assets now minified and cached.
• The authentication screen now displays all requested permissions (and indicates which, if any, Indiekit doesn’t yet support).
• Logged in session cookie will now expire after 7 days.
• Errors with mis-configured syndication targets are now shown in the application interface.
• Sticky navigation header (currently broken in dark mode, will be fixed in v1.0.0-beta.12).

This image of the Markdown editor in full screen mode with Indiekit installed as a web app makes me very happy:

A new release to coincide with IndieWebCamp Brighton 2024. 🎉

New feature

• preset-eleventy: eleventy preset (8229d2a)

Bug Fixes

• frontend: use em-based sizing for checkboxes and radios (b987197)

💟 Indiekit is supported by its community. This release was sponsored by @abhas, @sentience and @roobottom.

Indiekit’s first beta release of 2024 is a fairly substantial one. Largely focused on post type configuration, it contains a breaking change in this area.

It also improves the onboarding experience and documentation, and includes a number of bug fixes. Read on to learn more.

🚨 BREAKING CHANGES

Post type configuration

To aid the introduction of post type plug-ins, post type configuration has changed. You can read more about the decision in this ADR, but in short, Indiekit now expects a keyed collection of objects instead of an array:

// Before
postTypes: [
  {
    type: "note",
    post: {
      path: "notes/{yyyy}-{MM}-{dd}-{slug}.markdown",
      url: "notes/{yyyy}/{DDD}/a{n}/{slug}/",
    }
  }
]

// After
postTypes: {
  note: {
     post: {
       path: "notes/{yyyy}-{MM}-{dd}-{slug}.markdown",
       url: "notes/{yyyy}/{DDD}/a{n}/{slug}/",
     }
   }
}

Presets

If you are using the Hugo or Jekyll presets, there may be some slight changes in output, as post templates now output all provided properties (except those prefixed with mp-*). However, in most cases there should be no difference.

In addition, in order to better conform with Jekyll’s preference for front matter keys, these now use snake_case instead of kebab-case:

---
date: 2024-03-03
- like-of: https://getindiekit.com
+ like_of: https://getindiekit.com
---

(That Eleventy tends to favour camelCase for its properties might be the nudge I need to create a specific preset for that static generator.)

New features

🔌 Post type plugins

Turns out that publication presets were doing a lot of heavy lifting, and dictating more of the publishing pipeline than I intended. In fact, a number of assumptions around post types had been baked into various different parts of the application.

Post type plug-ins attempt to abstract a lot of this behaviour, and in doing so, make this aspect of Indiekit more customisable. They allow plug-in authors to:

• Determine a post type’s name
• Dictate which properties a post type has (and which are required)
• Provide means of creating and editing properties in Indiekit’s interface, and validate fields before form submission

These features are available via the new Indiekit.addPostType API.

In addition to adapting the existing post-types into plug-ins (for which article, bookmark, like, note, photo and reply are installed by default), 2 new post types have been added:

1. @indiekit/post-type-event allows you to add event posts to your website.
2. @indiekit/post-type-jam enables posting music you are currently listening to.

🔢 Character count

The content field in the editing interface now includes a character and word count. This follows a similar design to that used by the GOV.UK design system, that includes a delay before announcing updated counts to screen reader users. (#697)

🇸🇪 Swedish localisation

Thanks to @carlrafting for translating Indiekit into Swedish, bringing the number of available localisations up to 12.

Improvements and bug fixes

First run

• npm create indiekit would incorrectly report the minimum supported Node version, this has now been fixed. Thanks to @jphastings for reporting (#674).
• Any issues discovered while creating a MongoDB connection or connecting to a database are now reported in the interface. Thanks to @jackdbd for reporting and suggesting a fix (#690).
• The MongoDB database name can now be configured in the connection string. Thanks to @jphastings for reporting (#681).

Publishing

• Indiekit will now fetch references for form-encoded Micropub requests. Thanks to @aciccarello for reporting (#671).
• Indiekit will no longer throw an error when generating a JF2 feed. Thanks to @aciccarello for reporting (#676).
• Indiekit will now accept a publish date in form-encoded Micropub requests. Thanks to @jackdbd for reporting (#691).

Documentation

• API documentation now follows a format that is closer to that used on MDN (#699).
• Sections around configuration have been reorganised and expanded (#701).

Thanks to feedback from @kwaa and @davepeck in this area (#652).

Plug-ins

• Plug-in authors no longer need to provide id or meta properties on the plug-in constructor (#698).

💟 Indiekit is supported by its community. This release was sponsored by @abhas, @sentience and @roobottom.

This release contains a number of bug fixes, underlying architecture changes and fit and finish improvements to the user interface. Of note:

• Added Latin American Spanish localisation (thanks to Claudia Botero)
• Added basic support for photo, video and audio post types a future update will make it possible to upload files directly from the post form)
• Publication dates can be edited after posts have been published
• Micropub and Micropub media endpoints now provide uid (using the database record’s ObjectID) in source queries
• Post and file endpoint interfaces then use these uid values in their URL schemes
• @indiekit/store-ftp now uses the ssh2-sftp-client module
• Common utilities moved to a separate @indiekit/util module
• Interactive components now use native custom elements in place of Stimulus
• Added a Web App Manifest
• Plug-in icons have been updated to reflect the proposed set of IndieWeb building block icons
• A small bug fix to the syndication endpoint that may prevent repeat syndications to the same target from happening… 🤞

🚨 Breaking changes

There are also a few breaking changes in this release:

• The minimum supported Node version is now v20.6.
• The createFile() and updateFile() methods on Indiekit.addStore API now return a URL for the stored file, not true. This will allow for finer grained reporting and logging in later releases.

This release adds a number of new features and improvements:

• npm create indiekit will now ask if you want to deploy your server using Docker. If you select yes, the initialiser will generate Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml and .dockerignore files with a recommended setup. Thanks to @sentience for the suggestion. See #639.
• Before creating a new post, you will now be asked what type of post you want to create, meaning you no longer need to visit the dashboard to create different post types. Thanks to @roobottom for the suggestion. See #632.
• Post slugs can now be edited. Indeed, the Micropub endpoint and included store plug-ins have been updated so that posts can be saved to a renamed file path. See #648.
• The category input is now far more accessible, thanks to the wonderful @accesible-components/tag-input library. See #650.
• The Mastodon syndicator has been rewritten to use Masto.js and now uses the same post visibility setting when syndicating posts. See #629 and #633.
• Consolidated repeated utility functions within a new @indiekit/util package. See #616, #617 and #619.

🚨 Breaking changes

There are also a few breaking changes in this release:

• The Twitter syndicator has been deprecated. While still available (npm i @indiekit/syndicator-twitter), it will no longer be updated because, well, you know. See #637.
• Support for the forced option on syndicator plug-ins has been removed, the first step in reviewing and simplifying Indiekit’s syndication mechanics. See #630 and #643.
• The Indiekit.addStore API has been updated such that a commit message is now provided via an options object. See #647.

⏭️ Next up

As well as the above, there has been a glut of fixes and updates, with a bit of polish to the application interface. All in service of procrastinating over addressing the myriad syndication issues. Fixing those – and writing tutorials for different web hosting platforms – are the two remaining areas I want to address before calling 1.0.0 done.

Thanks again for your suggestions, bug reports and support. Slowly but surely this project is getting closer to the vision of making the IndieWeb accessible to everyone. Onwards!

This release contains a number of small changes:

• you can now provide a configuration file that exports an ES module (i.e. uses the export declaration). This caught a lot of users out, so hopefully having this fixed will improve the onboarding experience a little.
• the IndieAuth endpoint has been updated to provide a token introspection endpoint to verify access tokens.
• errors output to stderr and notification banners in the application interface will provide more detail, too.
• moved to cursor based pagination. This aligns with the paging specification for Microsub.

This release also adds type checking for JSDoc comments, leading to a number of documentation and other issues being caught and fixed.

This release contains a number of bug fixes for the syndication endpoint, and a number of smaller fixes to the frontend code. Here are the highlights:

• Use a shared secret for your Netlify webhook: Wheres before you would include your server’s access token in the URL to notify (and update it after it had expired), you can now use a shared secret instead. Set a WEBHOOK_SECRET environment variable for your Indiekit server, and use the same value for ‘JWS secret token’ on Netlify.
• Customise character length for posts syndicated to Mastodon: This was previously hard coded to 500, but this value can now be altered using the characterLimit option. See the plug-in documentation.
• Use asynchronous post template: Some content store plug-ins would error if you tried to return an asynchronous post template function. These are now officially supported.
• Debugging: Using the -d/--debug flag on indiekit serve was not working. This has now been fixed.
• Edit post slug: A regression in the last release meant it was not possible to add a custom slug when creating a new post from the web interface. This has now been fixed.

Wow, what a week! ☺️ It’s lovely to see Indiekit getting some attention, not least in the form of bug reports, pull requests and documentation feedback.

This release contains one new feature: the ability to add location co-ordinates to a post. Not sure why I felt the need to add this, and it took much longer than the hour or so I thought it would! However, it did mean uncovering some issues with nested vocabularies when converting between JF2 and mf2, so hopefully that’s a little more robust.

There are a few bug fixes, notably around encoding/decoding of < and > characters, and whitespace being introduced on subsequent post editing, and a number of improvements to the styling of various bits of the user interface. The documentation is slowly being improved too – still lots to do there, however.

The first beta release for v1.0.0. 🎉 For those new to the project, Indiekit is the little Node.js server with all the parts needed to publish content to your personal website and share it on social networks. Think of it as the missing link between a statically generated website and the social web protocols developed by the IndieWeb community and recommended by the W3C.

Publish content to your website using any application that supports Micropub. Write an article in iA Writer, post a note or photo from Micro.blog, or use a service like OwnYourSwarm to cross-post a check-in from Swarm. Then have it shared automatically on social networks like Mastodon and Twitter.

Read the launch post to learn more about the background to Indiekit, and what’s coming next.

The final alpha release before the beta launch. The primary feature of this release is the ability to create and update several post types (media and event post types will be added during the beta).

🚨 Breaking changes

There are a few breaking changes to be aware of:

• Deleting a post now doesn’t remove that post’s file from a content store, but instead removes all content-like values and adds a deleted date. This is so that deleted posts can be correctly given a 410 Gone status, rather than the less helpful 404 Not Found - although this very much depends on how a static site generator is configured.
• The Jekyll preset now sets published: false in a post’s front matter (instead of draft: true) if saved as a draft. This is the documented means of preventing a post from being published.
• The Hugo preset now sets both date and publishDate with a post’s published property. Additionally, lastmod is populated when a post is updated, and expiryDate is added when a post is deleted.

Features

• endpoint-files: return 404 if no file (86ef71d)
• endpoint-files: show post type icon in file card (8964f0f)
• endpoint-files: use details component for file properties (f2efacc)

With the previous release having set the groundwork, tidying up and fixing the frontend foundations, Alpha 17 starts to concentrate on the application interface by adding a number of new features:

• Homepage (separate from the server status page)
• Homepage widgets
• Delete files
• Delete posts
• JSON Feed moved into a separate optional plug-in
• Skip link

Note The homepage is missing some translations, and the ‘Create a new post’ links go to a 404 page. More still to come!

This release also fixes a long standing issue when syndicating posts. Previously, on occasion, a post would get syndicated over and over again – very embarrassing. Turns out this was happening whenever a post failed to syndicate to another configured target.

Rather than throw a 500 error (additionally leading to Netlify suspending any post-deploy webhooks), errors are now silently logged to the console. In addition, any failed syndications are captured both in the mp-syndicate-to property, and in the JSON response. Thanks to @alienlebarge for helping me track down this issue.

This release primarily focuses on quality of life improvements within the frontend package, its styles and components. However, it also adds the following features:

• support for Micropub’s draft scope
• better display of installed plugins in the application interface
• JF2 and JSON feeds, which may be useful for integrating with other services
• improved interface design, especially on smaller screens and in dark mode
• updated interface theming, with the chosen theme colour now creating a matching touch icon
• better integration with password managers on the sign in consent screen

🚨 Breaking change

This release also includes a breaking change for anyone upgrading from 1.0.0 Alpha 13/14/15. The method for hashing passwords has been updated to use bcrypt, rather than md5, meaning your existing password will no longer work.

After updating your server, visit /auth/new-password to generate a new password secret, and update your existing PASSWORD_SECRET environment variable with this value.
