Fixed #145

Hello!

This relase will feature an optimistic update for the video download process: the UI will not hang when a new download will be added.
Previous relase will show nothing until the download's metadata were present.

Furthermore, UNIX sockets are now supported with #143 thanks to @cyberb.

Fixed #141

Maintenance version.

Fixed #131, #136, #137, #139, #140 since last build.

Minor "maintenance" release while the frontend is being rewritten with Svelte.

Includes:

• Introduced React Million compiler
• Fixed #128

Hello!

As requested in #115 now theres a way to download files directly from the web UI.
A button has been added next to the selection checkbox in the archive view.

Bugfixes

• #118 on certain setups the archive view never loaded.
• #117 improved compability with reverse proxies: both in subdir and subdomain configuration.

Updates

Since the authentication method has changed under the hood the webui will reask for user/password on the first boot.
Custom title is disabled until I find an alternative for react-helmet.

As requested in #62, a new component has been added: templates editor.

Save your custom yt-dlp templates to later reuse.

Hello ✌️

This release enables the submission of custom cookies in netscape format as requested in #49 .

Once validated they will be persisted and the --cookies=cookies.txt will be automatically added as custom arg.

Hello 👋

This release brings in:

• Sesssion file location with --session option (closes #82)
• Auto dark theme

Code refactoring and bugfixing on the authentication side.
Remember to provide JWT_SECRET enviromental variable if you plan to use authentication.

Hello 👋,

This release brings in:

• REST API endpoints for downloading and inspecting (#72)
• A lot of improvements under the hood on the frontend side
• More robust, more manteinable backend architecture
• Playlist download support (#71)

A new frontend under the hood

Previous releases suffered from a lots of rerenders due to poorly written components and semantically wrong global state management use.
I've also changed the state manager from Redux to Recoil. An atom based state manager fits better in this application 🤠.
This releases sees an huge performance improvement and rerenders reduce to the bare minimum 🔥.

REST API

See #72.

Bye bye fiber, welcome http + gorilla websocket + chi

More robust libraries, better development experience.

Playlist support, finally 🤨

It's been like a year, bro.
This release see the experimental support for playlist downloads. It's not as fast as hoped, if someone is willing to contribute to enhance performance I will be glad!

A bug that causesd useless rerender upon an interaction with the appbar and drawer has been addressed and fixed.

Downloads now are ordered by date, not by title as before.

URL text field and other downloads related stuff has been moved to a dedicated view accessible by the bottom-right speed dial.

If hope that this new layout appears cleaner and more intuitive.

Happy Lunar New Year! 🐇

This release will fix #33 a runtime error in the latest docker images.

As a positive note, Docker images are available both on hub.docker.com and ghcr.io and will be drastically lighter (around 95-100 MB).

Added a more synthetic downloads view: listview
