1.0 (2020-09-09)
----------------

Upgrade instructions are available at
https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/upgrading.html


Dropped python 3.5 support [manual action required, non-docker only]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

With Funkwhale 1.0, we're dropping support for Python 3.5. Before upgrading,
ensure ``python3 --version`` returns ``3.6`` or higher.

If it returns ``3.6`` or higher, you have nothing to do.

If it returns ``3.5``, you will need to upgrade your Python version/Host, then recreate your virtual environment::

    rm -rf /srv/funkwhale/virtualenv
    python3 -m venv /srv/funkwhale/virtualenv


Increased quality of JPEG thumbnails [manual action required]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Default quality for JPEG thumbnails was increased from 70 to 95, as 70 was producing visible artifacts in resized images.

Because of this change, existing thumbnails will not load, and you will need to:

1. delete the ``__sized__`` directory in your ``MEDIA_ROOT`` directory
2. run ``python manage.py fw media generate-thumbnails`` to regenerate thumbnails with the enhanced quality

If you don't want to regenerate thumbnails, you can keep the old ones by adding ``THUMBNAIL_JPEG_RESIZE_QUALITY=70`` to your .env file.

Small API breaking change in ``/api/v1/libraries``
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

To allow easier crawling of public libraries on a pod,we had to make a slight breaking change
to the behaviour of ``GET /api/v1/libraries``.

Before, it returned only libraries owned by the current user.

Now, it returns all the accessible libraries (including ones from other users and pods).

If you are consuming the API via a third-party client and need to retrieve your libraries,
use the ``scope`` parameter, like this: ``GET /api/v1/libraries?scope=me``

API breaking change in ``/api/v1/albums``
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

To increase performance, querying ``/api/v1/albums`` doesn't return album tracks anymore. This caused
some performance issues, especially as some albums and series have dozens or even hundreds of tracks.

If you want to retrieve tracks for an album, you can query ``/api/v1/tracks/?album=<albumid>``.

JWT deprecation
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

API Authentication using JWT is deprecated and will be removed in Funkwhale 1.0. Please use OAuth or application tokens
and refer to our API documentation at https://docs.funkwhale.audio/swagger/ for guidance.

0.21 "Agate" (2020-04-24)
-------------------------

This 0.21 release is dedicated to Agate, to thank her, for both having created the Funkwhale project, being the current lead developer, and for her courage of coming out. Thank you Agate from all the members of the Funkwhale community <3

We are truly grateful as well to the dozens of people who contributed to this release with translations, development, documentation, reviews, design, testing, feedback, financial support, third-party projects and integrations… You made it possible!

Upgrade instructions are available at
https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/upgrading.html, there are also additional operations you need to execute, listed in the changelog below (search "Manual action").

Channels and podcasts
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Funkwhale 0.21 includes a brand new feature: Channels!

Channels can be used as a replacement to public libraries,
to publish audio content, both musical and non-musical. They federate with other Funkwhale pods, but also other
fediverse software, in particular Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica and Reel2Bits, meaning people can subscribe to your channel
from any of these software. To get started with publication, simply visit your profile and create a channel from there.

Each Funkwhale channel also comes with RSS feed that is compatible with existing podcasting applications, like AntennaPod
on Android and, within Funkwhale, you can also subscribe to any podcast from its RSS feed!

Many, many thanks to the numerous people who helped with the feature design, development and testing, and in particular
to the members of the working group who met every week for months in order to get this done, and the members of other third-party
projects who took the time to work with us to ensure compatibility.

Redesigned navigation, player and queue
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This release includes a full redesign of our navigation, player and queue. Overall, it should provide
a better, less confusing experience, especially on mobile devices. This redesign was suggested
14 months ago, and took a while, but thanks to the involvement and feedback of many people, we got it done!

Improved search bar for searching remote objects
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The search bar now support fetching arbitrary objects using a URL. In particular, you can use this to quickly:

- Subscribe to a remote library via its URL
- Listen a public track from another pod
- Subscribe to a channel

Screening for sign-ups and custom sign-up form
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Instance admins can now configure their pod so that registrations required manual approval from a moderator. This
is especially useful on private or semi-private pods where you don't want to close registrations completely,
but don't want spam or unwanted users to join your pod.

When this is enabled and a new user register, their request is put in a moderation queue, and moderators
are notified by email. When the request is approved or refused, the user is also notified by email.

In addition, it's also possible to customize the sign-up form by:

- Providing a custom help text, in markdown format
- Including additional fields in the form, for instance to ask the user why they want to join. Data collected through these fields is included in the sign-up request and viewable by the mods

Federated reports
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It's now possible to send a copy of a report to the server hosting the reported object, in order to make moderation easier and more distributed.

This feature is inspired by Mastodon's current design, and should work with at least Funkwhale and Mastodon servers.

Improved search performance
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Our search engine went through a full rewrite to make it faster. This new engine is enabled
by default when using the search bar, or when searching for artists, albums and tracks. It leverages
PostgreSQL full-text search capabilities.

During our tests, we observed huge performance improvements after the switch, by an order of
magnitude. This should be especially perceptible on pods with large databases, more modest hardware
or hard drives.

We plan to remove the old engine in an upcoming release. In the meantime, if anything goes wrong,
you can switch back by setting ``USE_FULL_TEXT_SEARCH=false`` in your ``.env`` file.

Enforced email verification
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The brand new ``ACCOUNT_EMAIL_VERIFICATION_ENFORCE`` setting can be used to make email verification
mandatory for your users. It defaults to ``false``, and doesn't apply to superuser accounts created through
the CLI.

If you enable this, ensure you have a SMTP server configured too.

More reliable CLI importer [manual action required]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Our CLI importer is now more reliable and less prone to Out-of-Memory issues, especially when scanning large libraries. (hundreds of GB or bigger)

We've also improved the directory crawling logic, so that you don't have to use glob patterns or specify extensions when importing. As a result, the syntax for providing directories to the command as changed slightly.

If you use the ``import_files`` command, this means you should replace scripts that look like this::

    python api/manage.py import_files $LIBRARY_ID "/srv/funkwhale/data/music/**/*.ogg" "/srv/funkwhale/data/music/**/*.mp3" --recursive --noinput

By this::

    python api/manage.py import_files $LIBRARY_ID "/srv/funkwhale/data/music/" --recursive --noinput

And Funkwhale will happily import any supported audio file from the specified directory.

User management through the server CLI
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

We now support user creation (incl. non-admin accounts), update and removal directly
from the server CLI. Typical use cases include:

- Changing a user password from the command line
- Creating or updating users from deployments scripts or playbooks
- Removing or granting permissions or upload quota to multiple users at once
- Marking multiple users as inactive

All user-related commands are available under the ``python manage.py fw users`` namespace.
Please refer to the `Admin documentation <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/commands.html#user-management>`_ for
more information and instructions.

Progressive web app [Manual action sugFull list of changes
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^gested, non-docker only]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

We've made Funkwhale's Web UI a Progressive Web Application (PWA), in order to improve the user experience
during offline use, and on mobile devices.

In order to fully benefit from this change, if your pod isn't deployed using Docker, ensure
the following instruction is present in your nginx configuration::

    location /front/ {
        # Add the following line in the /front/ location
        add_header Service-Worker-Allowed "/";
    }

Postgres docker changed environment variable [manual action required, docker multi-container only]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

If you're running with docker and our multi-container setup, there was a breaking change starting in the 11.7 postgres image (https://github.com/docker-library/postgres/pull/658)

You need to add this to your .env file: ``POSTGRES_HOST_AUTH_METHOD=trust``

Newer deployments aren't affected.

Upgrade from Postgres 10 to 11 [manual action required, docker all-in-one only]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

With our upgrade to Alpine 3.10, the ``funkwhale/all-in-one`` image now includes PostgreSQL 11.

In order to update to Funkwhale 0.21, you will first need to uprade Funkwhale's PostgreSQL database, following the steps below::

    # open a shell as the Funkwhale user
    sudo -u funkwhale -H bash

    # move to the funkwhale data directory
    # (replace this with your own if you used a different path)
    cd /srv/funkwhale/data

    # stop the funkwhale container
    docker stop funkwhale

    # backup the database files
    cp -r data/ ../postgres.bak

    # Upgrade the database
    docker run --rm \
        -v $(pwd)/data:/var/lib/postgresql/10/data \
        -v $(pwd)/upgraded-postgresql:/var/lib/postgresql/11/data \
        -e PGUSER=funkwhale \
        -e POSTGRES_INITDB_ARGS="-U funkwhale --locale C --encoding UTF8" \
        tianon/postgres-upgrade:10-to-11

    # replace the Postgres 10 files with Postgres 11 files
    mv data/ postgres-10
    mv upgraded-postgresql/ data

Once you have completed the Funkwhale upgrade with our regular instructions and everything works properly,
you can remove the backups/old files::

    sudo -u funkwhale -H bash
    cd /srv/funkwhale/data
    rm -rf ../postgres.bak
    rm -rf postgres-10

0.20.1 (2019-10-28)
-------------------

Upgrade instructions are available at
https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/upgrading.html


Denormalized audio permission logic in a separate table to enhance performance
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

With this release, we're introducing a performance enhancement that should reduce the load on the database and API
servers (cf https://dev.funkwhale.audio/funkwhale/funkwhale/merge_requests/939).

Under the hood, we now maintain a separate table to link users to the tracks they are allowed to see. This change is **disabled**
by default, but should be enabled by default starting in Funkwhale 0.21.

If you want to try it now, add
``MUSIC_USE_DENORMALIZATION=True`` to your ``.env`` file, restart Funkwhale, and run the following command::

    python manage.py rebuild_music_permissions

This shouldn't cause any regression, but we'd appreciate if you could test this before the 0.21 release and report any unusual
behaviour regarding tracks, albums and artists visibility.


Enhancements:

- Added a retry option for failed uploads (#942)
- Added feedback via loading spinner when searching a remote library
- Denormalized audio permission logic in a separate table to enhance performance
- Placeholders will now be shown if no content is available across the application (#750)
- Reduce the number of simultaneous DB connections under some deployment scenario
- Support byYear filtering in Subsonic API (#936)


Bugfixes:

- Ensure password input doesn't overflow outside of container (#933)
- Fix audio serving issues under S3/nginx when signatures are enabled
- Fix import crash when importing M4A file with no embedded cover (#946)
- Fix tag exclusion in custom radios (#950)
- Fixed an issue with embed player CSS being purged during build (#935)
- Fixed escaped pod name displayed on home/about page (#945)
- Fixed pagination in subsonic getSongsByGenre endpoint (#954)
- Fixed style glitches in dropdowns


Documentation:

- Documented how to create DB extension by hand in case of permission error during migrations (#934)

0.20 (2019-10-04)
-----------------

Upgrade instructions are available at
https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/upgrading.html


Support for genres via tags
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

One of our most requested missing features is now available!

Starting with Funkwhale 0.20,
Funkwhale will automatically extract genre information from uploaded files and associate it
with the corresponding tracks in the form of tags (similar to Mastodon or Twitter hashtags).
Please refer to `our tagging documentation <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/users/upload.html#tagging-files>`_
for more information regarding the tagging process.

Tags can also be associated with artists and albums, and updated after upload through the UI using
the edit system released in Funkwhale 0.19. Tags are also fetched when retrieving content
via federation.

Tags are used in various places to enhance user experience:

- Tags are listed on tracks, albums and artist profiles
- Each tag has a dedicated page were you can browse corresponding content and quickly start a radio
- The custom radio builder now supports using tags
- Subsonic apps that support genres - such as DSub or Ultrasonic - should display this information as well

If you are a pod admin and want to extract tags from already uploaded content, you run `this snippet <https://dev.funkwhale.audio/funkwhale/funkwhale/snippets/43>`__
and `this snippet <https://dev.funkwhale.audio/funkwhale/funkwhale/snippets/44>`__ in a ``python manage.py shell``.

Content and account reports
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It is now possible to report content, such as artists, tracks or libraries, as well as user accounts. Such reports are forwarded to the pod moderators,
who can review it and delete reported content, block accounts or take any other action they deem necessary.

By default, both anonymous and authenticated users can submit these reports. This makes sure moderators can receive and handle
takedown requests and other reports for illegal content that may be sent by third-parties without an account on the pod. However,
you can disable anonymous reports completely via your pod settings.

Federation of the reports will be supported in a future release.

For more information about this feature, please check out our documentation:

-  `User documentation <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/moderator/reports.html>`__
-  `Moderator documentation <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/users/reports.html>`__

Account deletion
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Users can now delete their account themselves, without involving an administrator.

The deletion process will remove any local data and objects associated with the account,
but the username won't be able to new users to avoid impersonation. Deletion is also broadcasted
to other known servers on the federation.

For more information about this feature, please check out our documentation:

-  `User documentation <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/users/account.html>`__

Landing and about page redesign [Manual action suggested]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

In this release, we've completely redesigned the landing and about page, by making it more useful and adapted to your pod
configuration. Among other things, the landing page will now include:

- your pod and an excerpt from your pod's description
- your pod banner image, if any
- your contact email, if any
- the login form
- the signup form (if registrations are open on your pod)
- some basic statistics about your pod
- a widget including recently uploaded albums, if anonymous access is enabled

The landing page will still include some information about Funkwhale, but in a less intrusive and proeminent way than before.

Additionally, the about page now includes:

- your pod name, description, rules and terms
- your pod banner image, if any
- your contact email, if any
- comprehensive statistics about your pod
- some info about your pod configuration, such as registration and federation status or the default upload quota for new users

With this redesign, we've added a handful of additional pod settings:

- Pod banner image
- Contact email
- Rules
- Terms of service

We recommend taking a few moments to fill these accordingly to your needs, by visiting ``/manage/settings``.

Allow-list to restrict federation to trusted domains
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The Allow-Listing feature grants pod moderators
and administrators greater control over federation
by allowing you to create a pod-wide allow-list.

When allow-listing is enabled, your pod's users will only
be able to interact with pods included in the allow-list.
Any messages, activity, uploads, or modifications to
libraries and playlists will only be shared with pods
on the allow-list. Pods which are not included in the
allow-list will not have access to your pod's content
or messages and will not be able to send anything to
your pod.

If you want to enable this feature on your pod, or learn more, please refer to `our documentation <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/moderator/listing.html>`_!

Periodic message to incite people to support their pod and Funkwhale
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Users will now be reminded on a regular basis that they can help Funkwhale by donating or contributing.

If specified by the pod admin, a separate and custom message will also be displayed in a similar way to provide instructions and links to support the pod.

Both messages will appear for the first time 15 days after signup, in the notifications tab. For each message, users can schedule a reminder for a later time, or disable the messages entirely.


Replaced Daphne by Gunicorn/Uvicorn [manual action required, non-docker only]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

To improve the performance, stability and reliability of Funkwhale's web processes,
we now recommend using Gunicorn and Uvicorn instead of Daphne. This combination unlock new use cases such as:

- zero-downtime upgrades
- configurable number of web worker processes

Based on our benchmarks, Gunicorn/Unicorn is also faster and more stable under higher workloads compared to Daphne.

To benefit from this enhancement on existing instances, you need to add ``FUNKWHALE_WEB_WORKERS=1`` in your ``.env`` file
(use a higher number if you want to have more web worker processes).

Then, edit your ``/etc/systemd/system/funkwhale-server.service`` and replace the ``ExecStart=`` line with
``ExecStart=/srv/funkwhale/virtualenv/bin/gunicorn config.asgi:application -w ${FUNKWHALE_WEB_WORKERS} -k uvicorn.workers.UvicornWorker -b ${FUNKWHALE_API_IP}:${FUNKWHALE_API_PORT}``

Then reload the configuration change with ``sudo systemctl daemon-reload`` and ``sudo systemctl restart funkwhale-server``.


Content-Security-Policy and additional security headers [manual action suggested]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

To improve the security and reduce the attack surface in case of a successfull exploit, we suggest
you add the following Content-Security-Policy to your nginx configuration.

..note::

    If you are using an S3-compatible store to serve music, you will need to specify the URL of your S3 store in the ``media-src`` and ``img-src`` headers

    .. code-block::

        add_header Content-Security-Policy "...img-src 'self' https://<your-s3-URL> data:;...media-src https://<your-s3-URL> 'self' data:";

**On non-docker setups**, in ``/etc/nginx/sites-available/funkwhale.conf``::

    server {

        add_header Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'self'; script-src 'self'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; img-src 'self' data:; font-src 'self' data:; object-src 'none'; media-src 'self' data:";
        add_header Referrer-Policy "strict-origin-when-cross-origin";

        location /front/ {
            add_header Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'self'; script-src 'self'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; img-src 'self' data:; font-src 'self' data:; object-src 'none'; media-src 'self' data:";
            add_header Referrer-Policy "strict-origin-when-cross-origin";
            add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN";
            # … existing content here
        }

        # Also create a new location for the embeds to ensure external iframes work
        # Simply copy-paste the /front/ location, but replace the following lines:
        location /front/embed.html {
            add_header X-Frame-Options "ALLOW";
            alias ${FUNKWHALE_FRONTEND_PATH}/embed.html;
        }
    }

Then reload nginx with ``systemctl reload nginx``.

**On docker setups**, in ``/srv/funkwhalenginx/funkwhale.template``::

    server {

        add_header Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'self'; script-src 'self'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; img-src 'self' data:; font-src 'self' data:; object-src 'none'; media-src 'self' data:";
        add_header Referrer-Policy "strict-origin-when-cross-origin";

        location /front/ {
            add_header Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'self'; script-src 'self'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; img-src 'self' data:; font-src 'self' data:; object-src 'none'; media-src 'self' data:";
            add_header Referrer-Policy "strict-origin-when-cross-origin";
            add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN";
            # … existing content here
        }

        # Also create a new location for the embeds to ensure external iframes work
        # Simply copy-paste the /front/ location, but replace the following lines:
        location /front/embed.html {
            add_header X-Frame-Options "ALLOW";
            alias /frontent/embed.html;
        }
    }

Then reload nginx with ``docker-compose restart nginx``.

Rate limiting
^^^^^^^^^^^^^

With this release, rate-limiting on the API is enabled by default, with high enough limits to ensure
regular users of the app aren't affected. Requests beyond allowed limits are answered with a 429 HTTP error.

For anonymous requests, the limit is applied to the IP adress of the client, and for authenticated requests, the limit
is applied to the corresponding user account. By default, anonymous requests get a lower limit than authenticated requests.

You can disable the rate-limiting feature by adding `THROTTLING_ENABLED=false` to your ``.env`` file and restarting the
services. If you are using the Funkwhale API in your project or app and want to know more about the limits, please consult https://docs.funkwhale.audio/swagger/.

Broken audio streaming when using S3/Minio and DSub [manual action required]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Some Subsonic clients, such as DSub, are sending an Authorization headers which was forwarded
to the S3 storage when streaming, causing some issues. If you are using S3 or a compatible storage
such as Minio, please add the following in your nginx ``~ /_protected/media/(.+)`` location::

    # Needed to ensure DSub auth isn't forwarded to S3/Minio, see #932
    proxy_set_header Authorization "";

And reload your nginx process.

0.19.0 (2019-05-16)
-------------------

Upgrade instructions are available at
https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/upgrading.html


Edits on tracks, albums and artists
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Funkwhale was a bit annoying when it camed to metadata. Tracks, albums and artists profiles
were created from audio file tags, but basically immutable after that (unless you had
admin access to Django's UI, which wasn't ideal to do this kind of changes).

With this release, everyone can suggest changes on track, album and artist pages. Users
with the "library" permission can review suggested edits in a dedicated interface
and apply/reject them.

Approved edits are broadcasted via federation, to ensure other instances get the information
too.

Not all fields are currently modifiable using this feature. Especially, it's not possible
to suggest a new album cover, or reassign a track to a different album or artist. Those will
be implemented in a future release.

Admin UI for tracks, albums, artists, libraries and uploads
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

As part of our ongoing effort to make Funkwhale easier to manage for instance owners,
this release includes a brand new administration interface to deal with:

- tracks
- albums
- artists
- libraries
- uploads

You can use this UI to quickly search for any object, delete objects in batch, understand
where they are coming from etc. This new UI should remove the need to go through Django's
admin in the vast majority of cases (but also includes a link to Django's admin when needed).

Artist hiding in the interface
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It's now possible for users to hide artists they don't want to see.

Content linked to hidden artists will not show up in the interface anymore. Especially:

- Hidden artists tracks are removed from the current queue
- Starting a playlist will skip tracks from hidden artists
- Recently favorited, recently listened and recently added widgets on the homepage won't include content from hidden artists
- Radio suggestions will exclude tracks from hidden artists
- Hidden artists won't appear in Subsonic apps

Results linked to hidden artists will continue to show up in search results and their profile page remains accessible.

OAuth2 authorization for better integration with third-party apps
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Funkwhale now support the OAuth2 authorization and authentication protocol which will allow
third-party apps to interact with Funkwhale on behalf of users.

This feature makes it possible to build third-party apps that have the same capabilities
as Funkwhale's Web UI. The only exception at the moment is for actions that requires
special permissions, such as modifying instance settings or moderation (but this will be
enabled in a future release).

If you want to start building an app on top of Funkwhale's API, please check-out
https://docs.funkwhale.audio/api.html and https://docs.funkwhale.audio/developers/authentication.html.

Better error handling and display during import
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Funkwhale should now be more resilient to missing tags in imported files, and give
you more insights when something goes wrong, including the specific tags that were missing
or invalid, and additional debug information to share in your support requests.

This information is available in all pages that list uploads, when clicking on the button next to the upload status.

Support for S3-compatible storages to store media files
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Storing all media files on the Funkwhale server itself may not be possible or desirable
in all scenarios. You can now configure Funkwhale to store those files in a S3
bucket instead.

Check-out https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/external-storages.html if you want to use
this feature.

Prune library command
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Users are often surprised by Funkwhale's tendency to keep track, album and artist
metadata even if no associated files exist.

To help with that, we now offer a ``prune_library`` management command you can run
to purge your database from obsolete entries. `Please refer to our documentation
for usage instructions <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/commands.html#pruning-library>`__.

Check in-place files command
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

When using in-place import with a living audio library, you'll quite often rename or
remove files from the file system. Unfortunately, Funkwhale keeps a reference to those
files in the database, which results in unplayable tracks.

To help with that, we now offer a ``check_inplace_files`` management command you can run
to purge your database from obsolete files. `Please refer to our documentation
for usage instructions <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/commands.html#remove-obsolete-files-from-database>`__.

-------------------

Upgrade instructions are available at
https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/upgrading.html


Avoid mixed content when deploying mono-container behind proxy [Manual action required]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

*You are only concerned if you use the mono-container docker deployment behind a reverse proxy*

Because of `an issue in our mono-container configuration <https://github.com/thetarkus/docker-funkwhale/issues/19>`_, users deploying Funkwhale via docker
using our `funkwhale/all-in-one` image could face some mixed content warnings (and possibly other troubles)
when browsing the Web UI.

This is fixed in this release, but on existing deployments, you'll need to add ``NESTED_PROXY=1`` in your container
environment (either in your ``.env`` file, or via your container management tool), then recreate your funkwhale container.


Enhancements:

- Added title on hover for truncated content (#766)
- Ask for confirmation before leaving upload page if there is a an upload in process (#630)
- Exclude in-place imported files from quota computation (#570)
- Truncate filename in library file table to ensure correct display of the table. (#735)


Bugfixes:

- Avoid mixed content when deploying mono-container behind HTTPS proxy (thetarkus/docker-funkwhale#19)
- Display new notifications immediatly on notifications page (#729)
- Ensure cover art from uploaded files is picked up properly on existing albums (#757)
- Fixed a crash when federating a track with unspecified position
- Fixed broken Activity and Actor modules in django admin (#767)
- Fixed broken sample apache configuration (#764)
- Fixed constant and unpredictable reordering during file upload (#716)
- Fixed delivering of local activities causing unintended side effects, such as rollbacking changes (#737)
- Fixed escaping issues in translated strings (#652)
- Fixed saving moderation policy when clicking on "Cancel" (#751)
- i18n: Update page title when changing the App's language. (#511)
- Include disc number in Subsonic responses (#765)
- Do not send notification when rejecting a follow on a local library (#743)


Documentation:

- Added documentation on mono-container docker upgrade (#713)
- Added documentation to set up let's encrypt certificate (#745)


0.18.2 (2019-02-13)
-------------------

https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/upgrading.html

Enhancements:

- Added a 'fix_federation_ids' management command to deal with protocol/domain issues in federation
  IDs after deployments (#706)
- Can now use a local file with FUNKWHALE_SPA_HTML_ROOT to avoid sending an HTTP request (#705)


Bugfixes:

- Downgraded channels dependency to 2.1.6 to fix denied uploads (#697)

0.18.1 (2019-01-29)
-------------------

Upgrade instructions are available at
https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/upgrading.html


Fix Gzip compression to avoid BREACH exploit [security] [manual action required]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

In the 0.18 release, we've enabled Gzip compression by default for various
content types, including HTML and JSON. Unfortunately, enabling Gzip compression
on such content types could make BREACH-type exploits possible.

We've removed the risky content-types from our nginx template files, to ensure new
instances are safe, however, if you already have an instance, you need
to double check that your host nginx virtualhost do not include the following
values for the ``gzip_types`` settings::

   application/atom+xml
   application/json
   application/ld+json
   application/activity+json
   application/manifest+json
   application/rss+xml
   application/xhtml+xml
   application/xml

For convenience, you can also replace the whole setting with the following snippet::

   gzip_types
      application/javascript
      application/vnd.geo+json
      application/vnd.ms-fontobject
      application/x-font-ttf
      application/x-web-app-manifest+json
      font/opentype
      image/bmp
      image/svg+xml
      image/x-icon
      text/cache-manifest
      text/css
      text/plain
      text/vcard
      text/vnd.rim.location.xloc
      text/vtt
      text/x-component
      text/x-cross-domain-policy;

Many thanks to @jibec for the report!

Fix Apache configuration file for 0.18 [manual action required]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The way front is served has changed since 0.18. The Apache configuration can't serve 0.18 properly, leading to blank screens.

If you are on an Apache setup, you will have to replace the `<Location "/api">` block with the following::

   <Location "/">
      # similar to nginx 'client_max_body_size 100M;'
      LimitRequestBody 104857600

      ProxyPass ${funkwhale-api}/
      ProxyPassReverse ${funkwhale-api}/
   </Location>

And add some more `ProxyPass` directives so that the `Alias` part of your configuration file looks this way::

   ProxyPass "/front" "!"
   Alias /front /srv/funkwhale/front/dist

   ProxyPass "/media" "!"
   Alias /media /srv/funkwhale/data/media

   ProxyPass "/staticfiles" "!"
   Alias /staticfiles /srv/funkwhale/data/static

In case you are using custom css and theming, you also need to match this block::

   ProxyPass "/settings.json" "!"
   Alias /settings.json /srv/funkwhale/custom/settings.json

   ProxyPass "/custom" "!"
   Alias /custom /srv/funkwhale/custom


Enhancements:

- Added name attributes on all inputs to improve UX, especially with password managers (#686)
- Disable makemigrations in production and misleading message when running migrate (#685)
- Display progress during file upload
- Hide pagination when there is only one page of results (#681)
- Include shared/public playlists in Subsonic API responses (#684)
- Use proper locale for date-related/duration strings (#670)


Bugfixes:

- Fix transcoding of in-place imported tracks (#688)
- Fixed celery worker defaulting to development settings instead of production
- Fixed crashing Django admin when loading track detail page (#666)
- Fixed list icon alignement on landing page (#668)
- Fixed overescaping issue in notifications and album page (#676)
- Fixed wrong number of affected elements in bulk action modal (#683)
- Fixed wrong URL in documentation for funkwhale_proxy.conf file when deploying using Docker
- Make Apache configuration file work with 0.18 changes (#667)
- Removed potential BREACH exploit because of Gzip compression (#678)
- Upgraded kombu to fix an incompatibility with redis>=3


Documentation:

- Added user upload documentation at https://docs.funkwhale.audio/users/upload.html


0.18 "Naomi" (2019-01-22)
-------------------------

This release is dedicated to Naomi, an early contributor and beta tester of Funkwhale.
Her positivity, love and support have been incredibly helpful and helped shape the project
as you can enjoy it today. Thank you so much Naomi <3

Many thanks to the dozens of people that contributed to this release: translators, developers,
bug hunters, admins and backers. You made it possible!

Upgrade instructions are available at
https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/upgrading.html, ensure you also execute the intructions
marked with ``[manual action required]`` and ``[manual action suggested]``.

See ``Full changelog`` below for an exhaustive list of changes!

Audio transcoding is back!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

After removal of our first, buggy transcoding implementation, we're proud to announce
that this feature is back. It is enabled by default, and can be configured/disabled
in your instance settings!

This feature works in the browser, with federated/non-federated tracks and using Subsonic clients.
Transcoded tracks are generated on the fly, and cached for a configurable amount of time,
to reduce the load on the server.


Licensing and copyright information
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Funkwhale is now able to parse copyright and license data from file and store
this information. Apart from displaying it on each track detail page,
no additional behaviour is currently implemented to use this new data, but this
will change in future releases.

License and copyright data is also broadcasted over federation.

License matching is done on the content of the ``License`` tag in the files,
with a fallback on the ``Copyright`` tag.

Funkwhale will successfully extract licensing data for the following licenses:

- Creative Commons 0 (Public Domain)
- Creative Commons 1.0 (All declinations)
- Creative Commons 2.0 (All declinations)
- Creative Commons 2.5 (All declinations and countries)
- Creative Commons 3.0 (All declinations and countries)
- Creative Commons 4.0 (All declinations)

Support for other licenses such as Art Libre or WTFPL will be added in future releases.


Instance-level moderation tools
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This release includes a first set of moderation tools that will give more control
to admins about the way their instance federates with other instance and accounts on the network.
Using these tools, it's now possible to:

- Browse known accounts and domains, and associated data (storage size, software version, etc.)
- Purge data belonging to given accounts and domains
- Block or partially restrict interactions with any account or domain

All those features are usable using a brand new "moderation" permission, meaning
you can appoint one or multiple moderators to help with this task.

I'd like to thank all Mastodon contributors, because some of the these tools are heavily
inspired from what's being done in Mastodon. Thank you so much!


Iframe widget to embed public tracks and albums [manual action required]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Funkwhale now supports embedding a lightweight audio player on external websites
for album and tracks that are available in public libraries. Important pages,
such as artist, album and track pages also include OpenGraph tags that will
enable previews on compatible apps (like sharing a Funkwhale track link on Mastodon
or Twitter).

To achieve that, we had to tweak the way Funkwhale front-end is served. You'll have
to modify your nginx configuration when upgrading to keep your instance working.

**On docker setups**, edit your ``/srv/funkwhale/nginx/funkwhale.template`` and replace
the ``location /api/`` and `location /` blocks by the following snippets::

    location / {
        include /etc/nginx/funkwhale_proxy.conf;
        # this is needed if you have file import via upload enabled
        client_max_body_size ${NGINX_MAX_BODY_SIZE};
        proxy_pass   http://funkwhale-api/;
    }

    location /front/ {
        alias /frontend/;
    }

The change of configuration will be picked when restarting your nginx container.

**On non-docker setups**, edit your ``/etc/nginx/sites-available/funkwhale.conf`` file,
and replace the ``location /api/`` and `location /` blocks by the following snippets::


    location / {
        include /etc/nginx/funkwhale_proxy.conf;
        # this is needed if you have file import via upload enabled
        client_max_body_size ${NGINX_MAX_BODY_SIZE};
        proxy_pass   http://funkwhale-api/;
    }

    location /front/ {
        alias ${FUNKWHALE_FRONTEND_PATH}/;
    }

Replace ``${FUNKWHALE_FRONTEND_PATH}`` by the corresponding variable from your .env file,
which should be ``/srv/funkwhale/front/dist`` by default, then reload your nginx process with
``sudo systemctl reload nginx``.


Alternative docker deployment method
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Thanks to the awesome work done by @thetarkus at https://github.com/thetarkus/docker-funkwhale,
we're now able to provide an alternative and easier Docker deployment method!

In contrast with our current, multi-container offer, this method integrates
all Funkwhale processes and services (database, redis, etc.) into a single, easier to deploy container.

Both methods will coexist in parallel, as each one has pros and cons. You can learn more
about this exciting new deployment option by visiting https://docs.funkwhale.audio/installation/docker.html!

Automatically load .env file
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

On non-docker deployments, earlier versions required you to source
the config/.env file before launching any Funkwhale command, with ``export $(cat config/.env | grep -v ^# | xargs)``
This led to more complex and error prone deployment / setup.

This is not the case anymore, and Funkwhale will automatically load this file if it's available.


Delete pre 0.17 federated tracks [manual action suggested]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

If you were using Funkwhale before the 0.17 release and federated with other instances,
it's possible that you still have some unplayable federated files in the database.

To purge the database of those entries, you can run the following command:

On docker setups::

    docker-compose run --rm api python manage.py script delete_pre_017_federated_uploads --no-input

On non-docker setups::

    python manage.py script delete_pre_017_federated_uploads --no-input


Enable gzip compression [manual action suggested]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Gzip compression will be enabled on new instances by default
and will reduce the amount of bandwidth consumed by your instance.

If you want to benefit from gzip compression on your instance,
edit your reverse proxy virtualhost file (located at ``/etc/nginx/sites-available/funkwhale.conf``) and add the following snippet
in the server block, then reload your nginx server::

    server {
        # ... exiting configuration

        # compression settings
        gzip on;
        gzip_comp_level    5;
        gzip_min_length    256;
        gzip_proxied       any;
        gzip_vary          on;

        gzip_types
            application/javascript
            application/vnd.geo+json
            application/vnd.ms-fontobject
            application/x-font-ttf
            application/x-web-app-manifest+json
            font/opentype
            image/bmp
            image/svg+xml
            image/x-icon
            text/cache-manifest
            text/css
            text/plain
            text/vcard
            text/vnd.rim.location.xloc
            text/vtt
            text/x-component
            text/x-cross-domain-policy;
        # end of compression settings
    }

Using a LDAP directory to authenticate to your Funkwhale instance
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Funkwhale now support LDAP as an authentication source: you can configure
your instance to delegate login to a LDAP directory, which is especially
useful when you have an existing directory and don't want to manage users
manually.

You can use this authentication backend side by side with the classic one.

Have a look at https://docs.funkwhale.audio/installation/ldap.html
for detailed instructions on how to set this up.


Simplified nginx setup [Docker: Manual action required]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

We've received a lot of user feedback regarding our installation process,
and it seems the proxy part is the one which is the most confusing and difficult.
Unfortunately, this is also the one where errors and mistakes can completely break
the application.

To make things easier for everyone, we now offer a simplified deployment
process for the reverse proxy part. This will make upgrade of the proxy configuration
significantly easier on docker deployments.

On non-docker instances, you have nothing to do.

If you have a dockerized instance, here is the upgrade path.

First, tweak your .env file::

    # remove the FUNKWHALE_URL variable
    # and add the next variables
    FUNKWHALE_HOSTNAME=yourdomain.funkwhale
    FUNKWHALE_PROTOCOL=https

    # add the following variable, matching the path your app is deployed
    # leaving the default should work fine if you deployed using the same
    # paths as the documentation
    FUNKWHALE_FRONTEND_PATH=/srv/funkwhale/front/dist

Then, add the following block at the end of your docker-compose.yml file::

    # existing services
    api:
        ...
    celeryworker:
        ...

    # new service
    nginx:
      image: nginx
      env_file:
        - .env
      environment:
        # Override those variables in your .env file if needed
        - "NGINX_MAX_BODY_SIZE=${NGINX_MAX_BODY_SIZE-100M}"
      volumes:
        - "./nginx/funkwhale.template:/etc/nginx/conf.d/funkwhale.template:ro"
        - "./nginx/funkwhale_proxy.conf:/etc/nginx/funkwhale_proxy.conf:ro"
        - "${MUSIC_DIRECTORY_SERVE_PATH-/srv/funkwhale/data/music}:${MUSIC_DIRECTORY_SERVE_PATH-/srv/funkwhale/data/music}:ro"
        - "${MEDIA_ROOT}:${MEDIA_ROOT}:ro"
        - "${STATIC_ROOT}:${STATIC_ROOT}:ro"
        - "${FUNKWHALE_FRONTEND_PATH}:/frontend:ro"
      ports:
        # override those variables in your .env file if needed
        - "${FUNKWHALE_API_IP}:${FUNKWHALE_API_PORT}:80"
      command: >
          sh -c "envsubst \"`env | awk -F = '{printf \" $$%s\", $$1}'`\"
          < /etc/nginx/conf.d/funkwhale.template
          > /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
          && cat /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
          && nginx -g 'daemon off;'"
      links:
        - api

By doing that, you'll enable a dockerized nginx that will automatically be
configured to serve your Funkwhale instance.

Download the required configuration files for the nginx container:

.. parsed-literal::

    cd /srv/funkwhale
    mkdir nginx
    curl -L -o nginx/funkwhale.template "https://dev.funkwhale.audio/funkwhale/funkwhale/raw/|version|/deploy/docker.nginx.template"
    curl -L -o nginx/funkwhale_proxy.conf "https://dev.funkwhale.audio/funkwhale/funkwhale/raw/|version|/deploy/funkwhale_proxy.conf"

Update the funkwhale.conf configuration of your server's reverse-proxy::

    # the file should match something like that, upgrade all variables
    # between ${} to match the ones in your .env file,
    # and your SSL configuration if you're not using let's encrypt
    # The important thing is that you only have a single location block
    # that proxies everything to your dockerized nginx.

    sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/funkwhale.conf
    upstream fw {
        # depending on your setup, you may want to update this
        server ${FUNKWHALE_API_IP}:${FUNKWHALE_API_PORT};
    }
    map $http_upgrade $connection_upgrade {
        default upgrade;
        ''      close;
    }

    server {
        listen 80;
        listen [::]:80;
        server_name ${FUNKWHALE_HOSTNAME};
        location / { return 301 https://$host$request_uri; }
    }
    server {
        listen      443 ssl;
        listen [::]:443 ssl;
        server_name ${FUNKWHALE_HOSTNAME};

        # TLS
        ssl_protocols TLSv1.2;
        ssl_ciphers HIGH:!MEDIUM:!LOW:!aNULL:!NULL:!SHA;
        ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on;
        ssl_session_cache shared:SSL:10m;
        ssl_certificate     /etc/letsencrypt/live/${FUNKWHALE_HOSTNAME}/fullchain.pem;
        ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/${FUNKWHALE_HOSTNAME}/privkey.pem;

        # HSTS
        add_header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=31536000";

        location / {
            include /etc/nginx/funkwhale_proxy.conf;
            proxy_pass   http://fw/;
        }
    }

Check that your configuration is valid then reload:

    sudo nginx -t
    sudo systemctl reload nginx
