News and updates about Publ

Publ 0.6.6, Authl 0.4.0

Posted Sunday, May 31 at 3:32 AM (4 years ago)

I’ve just released new versions of Publ and Authl.

Publ v0.6.6 changes:

  • Fixed a regression that made it impossible to log out
  • Fixed a problem where WWW-Authenticate headers weren’t being cached properly
  • Improve the changed-file cache-busting methodology
  • Add object pooling to Entry, Category, and View (for a potentially big memory and performance improvement)

Authl v0.4.0 changes:

  • Finally started to add unit tests
  • Removed some legacy WebFinger code that was no longer relevant or ever touched
  • Added a mechanism to allow providers to go directly to login, as appropriate
  • Added friendly visual icons for providers which support them (a so-called “NASCAR interface”)

Publ v0.6.5

Posted Thursday, May 28 at 3:45 PM (4 years ago)

Publ v0.6.5 is now out. Has the following changes:

  • Upgrading Publ will now invalidate the cache
  • Fixes the missing database session around the authentication log viewer
  • Fixes the way that the indexer works when an entry changes ID
  • Fixes a bug where draft entries' temporary IDs were overriding the permanent/assigned IDs of visible entries
  • Added some useful commandline tools

The next things I want to work on:

  • Micropub endpoint (done as a separate component that you can optionally add)
  • Adding more unit tests
  • Maybe an actual (very basic) CMS UI? I dunno

Publ v0.6.4, now with attachments

Posted Wednesday, May 20 at 7:00 PM (4 years ago)

There are several important bugfixes in this as well as one major new feature. Changes since v0.6.3:

  • Rewrote the indexer scheduling logic both for better peformance and to (hopefully) stop clobbering entry text on content deployments
  • Added entry attachments, which allows associating entries directly with one another
  • Fixed a silly caching bug introduced in v0.6.3 which basically broke the cache

Publ v0.6.3

Posted Thursday, May 14 at 11:21 PM (4 years ago)

Just a few bugfixes:

  • Fixed a problem that prevented logging out from working
  • Made view.deleted work correctly on count-based paginations
  • Allowed date-based paginations to work from an empty starting point

v0.6.2

Posted Friday, May 1 at 7:30 PM (4 years ago)

Just a few changes:

  • External images now get correctly-extracted into og:image card data
  • Local images get og:image:width and og:image:height attributes
  • Scheduled posts now flush the cache when they become visible
  • Once again fix extracted entry summaries to not be double-escaped
