Podcasts shipped switched off in every release and are now removed from the server,
web client and shared types. Migration 0132 drops the podcast tables and the media-type,
library-type and folder-role columns. Released iOS and Android builds read the removed
response fields as optional, so the API change stays compatible.
Report a linked copy whose bytes differ from the library file as positionIncompatible instead of
unmatched, so the plugin keeps the match, skips highlights without a failure and still syncs progress.
Treat a position-less place within a page as the same place and jump to the nearest page.
Suggest library books with the same title and authors for books to review, with bulk linking.
See docs/KOREADER_HASH_MATCHING.md.
Closes#1872Closes#1919
Plugins from 1.7.0 request a delivery variant, and every such download had
" - bo-<id>-<variant>" added to its name. Only copies that would share a path are
renamed now: a narrated EPUB's text-only copy and later same-format files. A new
<a|b|c> chained default also stops the default pattern naming authorless
standalone books "Standalone/ - <title>". See docs/READ_ALOUD_DELIVERY.md.
Closes#1893
Offer the one-folder-per-series layout Komga and Kavita use as a File as Book path-rule preset
rather than a new organization mode, so released iOS builds and both existing modes are unaffected.
Add a job that applies saved rules to books already in a library, and keep a run year such as
"Batman (2016)" when ComicInfo or a provider names the series without it.
Ref #1167
Ref #1918
Ref #839
Pick folders from a lazily loaded tree with find-by-name and typed paths, beside a plan showing
the books each organization mode would import, overlaps with other libraries, and folders no
library reads yet. New ManageLibraries /path routes walk folders within entry and time bounds.
Fix the scanner filing a disc-named library folder such as /mnt/disk1 under the folder above it,
and move books already filed there onto their primary file on the next scan.
Promote Viewer grants to Editor on book libraries for non-superusers who hold Edit metadata but
can edit nowhere, which is how every such account was left after the upgrade. Accounts with any
Editor or Owner role are left alone. The Users drawer now says where Edit metadata takes effect,
read from a new GET /users/:id/library-access route.
Closes#1902
Register book-metadata-provider services by address, with no code change per
provider; Settings lists ready-made ones to install. Ranking prefers a record of
the book's own medium. LubimyCzytac moves out to its own provider and Aladin,
whose API closes, is retired; their ids stay. Adds migrations 0129 and 0130.
See docs/METADATA_PROVIDERS.md.
Ref #1405
Add GET and PUT /reading-progress and DELETE /reading-progress/:fileId: positions grouped by
kind, up to 25 files saved in one request, and an optional editedAt so the server keeps the newer
of two saves. Move the web reader and book page to them, and list reading-progress in
SERVER_FEATURES for the iOS and Android apps, which adopt the routes in the same release.
Add a History page listing every read newest first, rereads included, as a
virtualized ledger or month cover walls, with period totals, per-read ratings,
export and a share image. Deleting a book keeps its finished reads under a
title and author snapshot (migration 0128).
Closes#1630
Add a Chapters tab to edit chapter timing and titles, look chapters up on Audible or in the ebook,
snap starts to pauses, keep a version history and write chapters into M4B, M4A and MP3 files. Add a
chapter health tool with a bulk Audible lookup queue. Editing needs Editor access to the book's
library. Chapter edits keep released iOS playback working by accepting a stale manifest revision
while the track layout is unchanged.
Ref #1120
Resolve book languages stated as names ("English") to a code, so the
dialog and the server's fallback stop calling English unsupported. The
dialog groups the ebook and audiobook in a Sources card, shows
Highlighting without the Advanced disclosure, and saves a per-user
default under /user-preferences/read-aloud for books it cannot match.
Generate a synced read-aloud EPUB from a book's EPUB and audiobook through an
optional STAlign worker (Docker on CPU, or native with MLX on Apple Silicon),
with review, re-sync, replace in place, restart recovery and live progress on
the Files tab. Book details also stack the ebook and audiobook covers when
both exist. See docs/READ_ALOUD.md.
Let users edit author facts, choose and pin a provider record, and keep later refreshes tied to that record. Preserve compatibility for older clients through additive API fields and a discoverable server feature.
Keep server typechecking deterministic by breaking circular Drizzle inference and correcting the nullability mismatches it previously hid.
Closes#1464
Add a per-login setting, on by default, that leaves books whose content files are all audio out
of the plugin catalog, its counts and bulk downloads, and drops a library holding nothing else.
The plugin detail page also names the first file the device can open as the main file.
Closes#1345
Torznab and Newznab read the feed's details page, plugins may send infoUrl, and the
search drops any link that could carry a credential. A grab can ask to be held for
review whatever its score, and the held review shows the file's own edition facts,
its cover and the release page. Torznab guids are now digested like Newznab's.
Refs #1438
With series collapsed, the series sort used the same key as title, so stacks
and standalone books interleaved alphabetically. Order stacks by series name
first, then standalones by title, in both directions. The jump rail now only
letters series, matching the flat view.
Fixes#1456
Stamp reading_progress.last_read_at with the device's reading time instead of the
server's write time. A sweep pushes a whole shelf at once, so sorting by last read
came out in processing order. Keep the later of the stored and pushed times, so a
late or offline push never sinks a newer read from another client.
Fixes#1433
Squash of feat/koreader-widget-board. KOReader plugin 2.0.0 gets the widget-board dashboard, redesigned
book details, menus, lists and dialogs, Decor page and reading companions. Highlights, notes and bookmarks
now stay in step across web, Kobo, KOReader and the phones (defects D-00 to D-20, migration 0121), and
reading progress and narration hand off cleanly between devices.
A Kobo downloads a cover only for a new entitlement, so a changed cover
sent as changed metadata left the book with a text-only cover until the
home screen fetched a small tile. Record the cover id on each device
snapshot row and re-announce the book when it moves; rows from before
the change learn it silently. Serve tile-size requests at a full-screen
size so the sleep screen never stretches a tile.
A Kobo asks for each cover at its screen size but always got the
400x600 grid thumbnail, so sleep screens and full-screen covers were
blurry. Scale the full cover to fit the requested box instead, behind a
new Full-size covers setting that is on by default. Drop the stale
UserStorage entries from the authorization matrix gap baseline.
Fixes#924
When a Kobo syncs after finishing a book, its finished state closes the
reading attempt before the offline sessions arrive, and those sessions
opened a second attempt, marking the book as reread or read twice.
Activity dated within the finished read now joins it, activity from
before it began joins nothing, and an undated start never widens the
range. Update the reading-attempts E2E Kobo test to use a real device
that holds the book.
Fixes#1224Fixes#1182
A Kobo dogear was stored as an empty yellow highlight. Land it as a
BookOrbit bookmark linked to the device's id, serve it back as a dogear,
sync deletions both ways, and move dogears already stored as highlights.
Report only books on that Kobo from checkforchanges: a re-registered
device was told about books it never had, so real changes were fetched
outside its sync and never applied. Serve a known annotation at its last
location instead of failing the whole pull when this copy cannot place it.
Fixes#1374
A replacement stayed ambiguous after the user confirmed it, so every
position the Kobo sent was discarded and annotation pulls failed with 409.
Confirming now makes it the device's copy and moves the stored bookmark
onto it. It still cannot drag saved progress backwards, and that is
judged by position, since its percentages run on a different scale.
Ref #1786
A replacement byte-identical to the device's copy was never downloaded, so
it stayed offered and every bookmark the device pushed was discarded.
Keep the current delivery instead, and tell the user in the replacement
panel that the device already has this copy.
Ref #1786
A replacement prepared before the device ever received the book had no
earlier delivery to fall back to, so every sync failed the book. It now
stops standing for the book and the book gets an ordinary first offer.
Cancelling a replacement the device has not fetched now clears it, hands
the book back to the earlier delivery, and re-announces it. Update the
download E2E suite for the stale-offer replacement from #1816.
Ref #1786
fix(kobo): reconcile counter estimates on their counter interval (#1796)
Stop counting offline Kobo reading twice. Record when each counter
estimate's interval began, split measured sessions across intervals by
wall-clock overlap, and subtract measured seconds instead of dropping the
estimate, so both arrival orders converge.

feat(metadata): extract metadata from file paths with regex rules (#1669)
Let libraries define ordered regex rules that read title, authors, series,
series number and dates from each book's path relative to its library folder.
Run rules in a bounded worker pool, honour source precedence and field locks,
and apply them on scans, uploads and watcher moves. Also retry unprobed M4B
tag writes with the mp4 muxer.
Closes#1351
Co-authored-by: neon <18559658+neonsolstice@users.noreply.github.com>
Show the global rule and each library's own rule on Field Rules-style tabs, with live counts per
condition, the score histogram and the books a run would take. Store only what a library changes,
run every library with its own rule, and record each library's run. Also fix the DjVu queue test
that assumed which request waits, and inventory the DjVu reader routes.
Reader › Fonts now uses the Server Fonts ledger, family sheet and upload tray for a reader's own
fonts, and lists the server's fonts with a show/hide switch and a preview sheet. The shared pieces
move to features/settings/fonts and the ledger columns narrow to give the specimen room.
Server: additive GET /fonts/usage and PATCH /fonts/families, upload error codes, and a 409 instead
of a 500 when a reader uploads a second file for the same face.
Changes, Sign-ins, Security and All views replace the filter form. Repeats fold into one row,
sign-ins fold per person, day and network, and rows name their targets; events now snapshot
the target's name so deleted ones keep it. The drawer adds the event's facts, the target's
history, what the same person did around it, and one-click scoping. New additive routes:
/audit-log/summary, /sign-ins and /export; retention is editable from the page.
Each family is a row with its specimen, a weight grid of the styles readers get and how readers
use it; its sheet previews the face on reader pages and inside the reader's own font list. Uploads
answer per file in one tray, removing a family confirms with its cost, and a rename is one request.
Server: additive GET /server-fonts/usage (counts only), PATCH /server-fonts/families, upload error codes.
Replace the card grid with medals, a showcase, category shelves, a record book and a
detail sheet. Add GET /achievements/hints, which explains how to unlock what is still
locked from the user's own library and reading history, backed by a new page-count
index. Year-Round Reader now reports its months read as progress.
Library, smart scope, collection, authors and series pages share a new
BrowseHeader: the place and its actions on one row, then search, sort,
filters and facets in one bar that folds groups instead of wrapping.
Format chips count from the new POST /libraries/:id/books/facets, built
on the listing's own query; scopes and collections gain filter and sort.
Scanned books are commonly distributed as DjVu, which the scanner only stored as a supplement.
Decode pages on the server with DjVuLibre so DjVu imports with a cover and page count, opens in
the image reader with its embedded OCR text, and can be the preferred format of an ordinary email
recipient. Migration 0113 widens the recipient format check to allow it.
Decoding runs on validated private snapshots behind a bounded, reader-first queue, and
revalidation and cached pages are answered without a decoder. Released iOS builds cannot open
DjVu, so series continuation offers it only to callers sending includeDjvu=true, and the
dashboard and notebook read file never name it. The first full scan after upgrading promotes
stored .djvu supplements to content.
Use the source finish day when importing completed KOReader books so
completion timelines reflect reading history instead of the sync date.
Preserve newer manual edits and retain fallback behavior for unusable dates.
Closes#1783
Resolve OPF and Dublin Core namespaces so valid prefixed metadata retains
book language and avoids incorrect English dictionary lookups.
Preserve element order and identifiers, and cover reader metadata and
narration with unit and HTTP regression tests.
Closes#1789
Library access roles had no effect on metadata editing: only the global Edit metadata permission
was checked, so a Viewer could edit every library they could see and an Editor could not be
limited to one library. Require Editor or Owner on the book's library for every metadata write,
including bulk edits, locks, covers, file renames, entity manager changes and author edits, and
hide the matching actions in the web client.
Keep existing access levels when an admin saves a user's library list. The old replace reset every
row to Viewer, which would now silently revoke editing on each user save.
Existing grants are Viewer, so after upgrading, admins must set Editor on each library where a
non-superuser should keep editing metadata. The released iOS app already gates editing on Editor.
Closes#1778
The authorization matrix fails for any live route that is neither inventoried nor in its frozen
gap baseline, and GET /server-identity arrived without an entry. Record it as public with no
permission or library access, which is exactly what the route serves.
The iOS app lets an account reach one server through several addresses, such as a home network
IP and a public name. Before it sends credentials to an alternative address it needs to know the
address leads to the same installation, so expose a public, credential-free GET /server-identity
returning a persisted UUID, and add the same optional instanceId to app-info with the
server-connection-identity feature flag.
The UUID lives in a singleton server_identity row shared by every replica, created on first use
and cached per process. An unreadable identity omits instanceId instead of failing app-info,
which clients rely on for feature detection. Existing routes and bodies are unchanged and the
web client does not call the new route; the iOS app does.
The migration uses IF NOT EXISTS because an unreleased build created the same table as 0109.
Fix the server and web gaps found while porting the PDF and comic
readers and offline downloads to Android, checked against the iOS app:
- KOReader: answer a pull for a PDF or comic with the page number when a
BookOrbit client wrote last, instead of a percentage with no page
- comics: key the zip offset, RAR and CB7 caches by file id and
modification time, so pages are not served from stale offsets after a
metadata write-back rewrites the archive
- comics: answer an unreadable archive with 422 rather than a page count
of 0, and extract CB7 with its folders so same-named pages in
different folders no longer overwrite each other
- book files: send an ETag and Last-Modified on serve and download and
honour If-None-Match and If-Range, clamp a range that runs past the
end, answer suffix ranges with 206, and honour Range on download,
which advertised it but sent the whole file
- book files: leave raw file routes uncompressed, so FB2 and unknown
formats keep their Content-Length
- progress: reject a fractional or negative page number with 400 rather
than failing with 500 at the database
- types: declare the comic page-count response shared by the web and
the apps
- web: open a percentage-only PDF position at its estimated page, and
flush pending PDF and comic progress before the reading session ends
Preserve reset-hold notices when recovery requests fail and prevent
stale responses from replacing another book's progress. Refresh holds
after permission changes and rereads, and cover recovery and session
deletion with regression tests.
Ref #1355
Deleting a KOReader session left its page events stored, so the next upload within the
session gap re-derived it. Record the deleted span in koreader_session_tombstones and skip
those events during derivation. Show the reset-hold notice on the Reading Log as well,
since Reset is reachable there and a held device otherwise reads as unexplained progress.
Refs #1355
Fold six tabs into Recipients, Mail servers, Templates and History, where only problems get
colour and one star sets each default through email_preferences. Replace the send dialog with
a sheet that preselects the default recipient and follows the send. Server additions are
optional fields and routes, so released iOS builds keep working.
A cached Hardcover match outranked a corrected Hardcover ID or ISBN, so progress kept going to the
wrong book. Record the identifiers each link came from and re-check it when they change, honour the
metadata edition on a match, and release the old book's read links so they are never reused.
Closes#1488
Keep disabled Prowlarr limits from being reapplied through tracker metadata,
cached releases, or stale source rows after a failed synchronization.
Cover policy changes, synchronization, both torrent transports, client defaults,
and the PostgreSQL join with regression tests.
Closes#1625
Audiobookshelf reports a progress row's creation time as its start, while
clients set the finish date freely, so a backfilled finish can predate it.
One such row broke user_book_status's date check and the whole status batch
with it. Keep the finish date and drop the start, and store the database's
reason on a failed run instead of the failed SQL.
Closes#1678
The player follows each track's stored sort order, which overlapping
folder scans, Add File, and imports joining a book could leave out of
step with the file names the Files tab shows. Realign a book's tracks
after each of those writes, under the book row lock.
Closes#1681
Book Dock finalize, which also files book requests, left each audio file's
duration empty until the next library scan. The player derives progress only
from those, so a filed audiobook stayed at 0% and never reached Continue
Listening. Finalize now measures them once metadata is applied.
Refs #1757
Map <Genre> to genres and <Tags> to tags instead of using tags as a genre
fallback, which dropped them whenever a Genre was present. Read the
ComicBookInfo genre field so those comics keep their genres.
Fixes#1572
Add original and text-only EPUB delivery choices across Kobo, KOReader,
OPDS, web downloads and email while keeping source files unchanged.
Persist server defaults, device overrides and captured artifact identities
so retries and guided replacement retain the selected rendition.
Preserve saved progress across first opens, replacement resets and stale
updates, and project annotations against the copy delivered to each device.
Handle XML resource references, large inodes, retry backoff and background
worker state correctly. Consolidate the schema changes into one migration
and retain released-client request and response compatibility.
Verify with the full server and client checks, delivery and sync HTTP suites,
independent code reviews, and live KOReader download/settings/reader proof.
