Add support for selecting individual audio files during manual and bulk imports and pass that selection through the scan, API, job queue, processor and organizer.
Key changes:
- API: scan now returns audioFiles for each discovered book and emits a new 'grouping' progress phase; execute and manual-import routes accept file lists (audioFiles / selectedFiles) and validate them.
- Scanner: group loose audio files by metadata (title/author/narrator), deduplicate multi-part sets (CD1/CD2) across folders, and return audioFiles + groupingKey; add concurrency limit for ffprobe reads and merge groups post-scan.
- Job queue & processor: OrganizeFiles payload now includes selectedFiles; processors forward selectedFiles to the FileOrganizer and to cleanup logic.
- File organizer & cleanup: filter to only selectedFiles when organizing; cleanup now deletes only the selected files (if provided) instead of removing the whole directory.
- UI: Manual import browser and bulk import wizard updated to show per-file selection, track checkedFiles, toggle all, and send selected files to the API; ConfirmPhase updated to allow checking/unchecking files and prevents starting import with no files selected.
- Filesystem browse: removed expensive per-subfolder stats to keep browsing responsive (now lists subdirectories without nested stat calls).
Overall this change enables finer-grained imports, reduces accidental deletion of unselected files, and improves scan grouping for multi-folder audiobooks.
Query Audnexus (Audible) to backfill missing metadata during manual imports and file organization. Adds getAudibleService imports and calls to fetch audiobook details by ASIN, then backfills series, seriesPart, seriesAsin, year (from releaseDate) and narrator when missing and updates the DB. Failures are non-fatal and logged; logs were added to surface enrichment steps. Also uses the resolved series/seriesPart when building organization metadata.
Add support for per-request custom search terms and an admin retry-download flow.
- DB/schema: add custom_search_terms column via Prisma migration and schema update.
- Admin UI: new AdjustSearchTermsModal component and UI badges to show custom search status; RequestActionsDropdown and RecentRequestsTable updated to surface adjust/retry actions.
- API: new PATCH /api/admin/requests/[id]/search-terms to set/clear custom terms (optionally trigger a new search) and new POST /api/admin/requests/[id]/retry-download to resume monitoring or re-add downloads using DownloadHistory metadata.
- Behavior: interactive search now prefers customSearchTerms when present; manual import exposes cleanupSource option to organize job; admin requests listing returns downloadAttempts and customSearchTerms.
- UX: add SectionToolbar, LoadMoreBar and HideAvailableToggle components and wire hide-available preference across home, search, author and series pages; authors/series endpoints/page handlers gain pagination metadata.
- Misc: add connection-errors util and update related processors/services and tests to cover the new flows.
These changes enable admins to override search terms per request, trigger searches from the admin UI, and retry failed downloads more robustly.
Always use qBittorrent's content_path as the canonical downloadPath and expose savePath on DownloadInfo instead of reconstructing paths from save_path + basename. Add path-waiting logic to the monitor: track consecutive pathWaitCount polls, re-queue the monitor with exponential-ish backoff while content_path remains outside save_path (to handle TempPathEnabled races), and give up after a configurable max attempts. Extend the MonitorDownload payload and JobQueue APIs to carry pathWaitCount. Organize-files processor now attempts to refresh the stored downloadPath from the download client and updates downloadHistory if the client reports a different path (applying path mapping). Update tests to reflect the new behavior and expectations.
Add support for admin-driven interactive torrent selection and a file rename/template feature. Integrates an InteractiveTorrentSearchModal into the pending-approval admin UI, adds an admin approve flow that accepts an admin-selected torrent, and surfaces user/admin-selected torrent details in the UI. Introduces fileRenameEnabled and fileRenameTemplate settings (API + UI), persists them to configuration, and clears related caches. Pass renameConfig through the organize/organizeEbook flows and implement renaming in the FileOrganizer (single/multi-file handling). Enhance path-template utilities with conditional block resolution, filename-template validation, mock filename previews, and a buildRenamedFilename helper. Update tests to cover conditional templates and filename preview behavior.
Introduce Deluge download client service and tests, remove obsolete rdtclient service, and update qbittorrent integration/tests and download-client interfaces/manager. Large UI refactor for admin pages: Jobs and Logs were redesigned to be responsive (mobile card views + desktop tables), improved headers, dialogs, controls, and better status/detail rendering. Also updated DownloadClient components (card, management, modal), organize-files processor, audible-series integration, and related unit tests to align with integration changes. Minor UX and accessibility tweaks, cron handling/validation adjustments, and a few formatting/cleanup fixes throughout.
Introduce RDT-Client integration and related UI/behavior changes.
- Add RDTClientService extending QBittorrentService with RDT-specific behavior (stale-torrent deletion, postProcess cleanup, no-op categories).
- Register 'rdtclient' in supported client types, display names, and protocol mapping; create RDT client factory in DownloadClientManager.
- Add RDT-Client card to DownloadClientManagement UI and placeholder URL in DownloadClientModal.
- Update qbittorrent service: omit per-torrent savepath/sequential options (favor category/automatic management), make several methods protected, and clean up related comments.
- Make organize-files.processor treat rdtclient as a special-case for cleanup (remove local torrent entries after organize).
- Add prowlarr service singleton invalidation and call it when Prowlarr settings are updated so background jobs pick up new credentials.
- Add confirmation flow when changing Prowlarr URL/API key: new useIndexersSettings logic to detect credential changes, prompt ConfirmModal from IndexersTab, and optionally clear configured indexers on confirmed change.
These changes ensure Real-Debrid-backed qBittorrent-compatible clients are supported correctly and that switching Prowlarr credentials is handled safely.
Introduce full authors browsing/detail feature and enhance notifications to support type-specific titles.
- Add server APIs: authors search, author detail, and author books routes (audnexus integration) that require auth and enrich results with library matches.
- Add frontend pages/components: /authors listing and /authors/[asin] detail pages; AuthorCard, AuthorGrid, AuthorDetailCard, SimilarAuthorsRow, and related skeletons.
- Add hook and integration stubs: new useAuthors hook and audnexus-authors integration; update audible service to expose audibleBaseUrl.
- Update AudiobookDetailsModal to use audibleBaseUrl and link author names to author detail pages.
- Add header navigation link to Authors.
- Notifications: extend docs and code to include requestType (audiobook|ebook), add getEventTitle/getEventMeta helpers, update queue signature and providers/processors/tests to pass/handle requestType so titles can be resolved per request type.
- Misc: job queue, processors, provider tests and notification tests updated to reflect new behavior.
This change enables browsing authors and provides type-aware notification titles without per-provider changes.
Introduce a provider-based notification system and wire it through the API and admin UI. Added INotificationProvider + notification service implementation and providers (apprise, discord, ntfy, pushover), plus a GET /api/admin/notifications/providers endpoint to expose provider metadata. Refactored code to use provider type strings (removed enum coupling), updated masking/encryption calls, and simplified the test notification endpoint to accept backendId or type+config and call sendToBackend directly.
UI: NotificationsTab now fetches provider metadata and renders provider cards and dynamic config forms (fields driven by provider metadata). Added config field rendering, improved backend cards, and edit/delete actions.
APIs: New providers route, updated admin notification CRUD routes to validate provider types dynamically, updated test route schema. Added download-client categories POST API to fetch categories from clients and wired postImportCategory handling in download-client routes.
Other notable changes: BookDate now fetches Claude models dynamically from Anthropic's Models API; added paginated model fetch helper. Added ALLOW_WEAK_PASSWORD flag exposure to auth providers and password change logic. Doc updates and various tests added/updated. File-organization doc clarifies EPERM fix using stream-based copy.
Extend multi-download-client support to include Transmission and NZBGet and introduce per-client custom download paths. Adds protocol mapping and new client types, Transmission/NZBGet integration services, API CRUD and validation changes, UI components/modal updates and live path previews, and manager routing by protocol. Includes DB migrations (download_path on download_history, interactive_search_access on users), schema updates, and related processor/service fixes and tests to ensure backward compatibility and proper path resolution.
improve container startup for rootless Podman, plus related refactors and tests. Key changes:
- Add/modify Audiobookshelf-related code and wiring (src/lib/services/audiobookshelf/api.ts, library service refs) and update documentation TABLEOFCONTENTS to reference ABS implementation.
- Detect user namespace in docker/unified app-start.sh and redis-start.sh and skip gosu when running in rootless Podman to preserve UID mapping; improve startup logging and verification.
- Add utility/service files (auth-token-cache.service.ts, credential-migration.service.ts, cleanup-helpers.ts) and corresponding tests; update chapter-merger and metadata-tagger utilities/tests.
- Update many admin/auth API routes and tests to reflect changes in settings and integrations.
- Remove large AI agent and Audiobookshelf implementation guide docs (AGENTS.md and the implementation guide) and add README note about AI-assisted workflow.
These changes enable Audiobookshelf backend mode, improve compatibility with rootless container runtimes, and include cleanup/refactor work and unit tests.
Introduce an optional Kindle EPUB compatibility fixer and integrate it into the ebook organization flow. Adds a new config key (ebook_kindle_fix_enabled, default false), a settings API update, and a UI toggle (visible when preferred format is EPUB). Implements src/lib/utils/epub-fixer.ts (uses adm-zip and cheerio) to apply fixes: add UTF-8 XML declarations, remove body/#bodymatter fragments from links, validate/normalize dc:language, and remove stray <img> tags without src. organize-files.processor now detects EPUB downloads, runs the fixer (produces a temp fixed EPUB), uses the fixed file for organization, logs fixes, and cleans up temporary files; fix failures are non-blocking and the original download is preserved. Adds dependencies adm-zip and @types/adm-zip and updates documentation and types/UI to expose the new setting. Also includes helper functions to detect EPUB paths in downloads.
Introduce interactive ebook support: adds two API endpoints to search (interactive-search-ebook) and create/select ebook requests (select-ebook), plus server-side handlers to route Anna's Archive (direct) and indexer (torrent/NZB) downloads. Frontend: extend RequestActionsDropdown and InteractiveTorrentSearchModal to support an "ebook" search mode and selection flow, and add hooks (useInteractiveSearchEbook / useSelectEbook). Settings: add ebook_auto_grab_enabled with UI toggle and enforce disabling when no ebook sources are enabled; settings GET/PUT updated to persist the flag (default = true to preserve behavior). Documentation updated (scheduler, ebook-sidecar, settings pages) and ranking algorithm docs/tests extended to cover ebook-related normalization and matching cases. Includes logging and ranking integration for indexer results and normalization for Anna's Archive handling.
Refactor ebook flow to support multiple sources (Anna's Archive direct downloads + Prowlarr indexer search) and unify handling with existing audiobook processors. Key changes:
- search-ebook.processor: rewritten to try Anna's Archive first then fall back to indexer search, add Prowlarr grouping, ranking (rankEbookTorrents), and handlers to route results to direct-download or download-torrent flows.
- organize-files.processor: enriches audiobook/ebook metadata from AudibleCache (year, narrator), treats indexer downloads specially (seed retention), adds optional NZB cleanup/archive logic, and improves retryable error detection.
- file-organizer: organizeEbook now accepts additional metadata and an isIndexerDownload flag and supports directories vs single-file paths.
- API/UI: include request.type in admin requests API and remove the “coming soon” notice from Ebook settings tab.
- fetch-ebook route: removed blocking error for indexer-only mode so the flow can proceed when indexer search is enabled.
- Documentation: update TOC, ebook-sidecar, settings-pages, and ranking-algorithm docs to describe indexer search, unified ebook ranking, configuration, and flows.
These changes enable indexer-based ebook discovery, ranking, and downloads while preserving existing Anna's Archive behavior and reusing audiobook download processors where possible.
Introduces granular toggles for Anna's Archive and Indexer Search as ebook sources, updates settings UI to a three-section layout, and documents the new configuration. Adds per-indexer category configuration with separate tabs for audiobooks and ebooks, updates API routes and types for new settings, and ensures legacy config migration. Indexer grouping and file organization logic now support the new category structure and ebook source toggles.
Implements first-class ebook requests with their own type, parent-child relationship to audiobook requests, and separate status flow. Updates database schema and migrations to support 'type' and 'parentRequestId' fields on requests. Adds processors and job types for ebook search and direct HTTP download from Anna's Archive, with FlareSolverr integration for Cloudflare bypass. Enhances admin UI tables and request actions to display and manage ebook requests, including orange badge and source links. Updates documentation to reflect new ebook support, configuration, and behavior.
Adds file hash-based matching for Audiobookshelf library items to ensure 100% accurate ASIN assignment for RMAB-organized content. Removes fuzzy matching from library availability checks, making all matching ASIN-only to eliminate false positives and race conditions. Updates database schema, processors, and matcher utilities; adds new tests and documentation for the new matching strategy. Removes obsolete scripts, Dockerfile, and related tests; updates docker-compose for test environments.
Introduces 'series' and 'seriesPart' fields to the Audiobook model and database schema. Updates API routes, file organization, and path template utilities to support series metadata. Enhances chapter merging logic, improves notification backend testing, and expands test coverage for admin and API routes.
Introduces a full notification system with support for Discord and Pushover backends, event triggers, and message formatting. Adds backend services, processors, and API endpoints for managing notifications, as well as a new Notifications tab in the admin settings UI. Updates documentation, database schema, and tests to cover notification features and approval workflow improvements. Also changes project license from MIT to AGPL v3.
Implements admin approval workflow for user requests with global and per-user auto-approve controls. Adds new request statuses ('awaiting_approval', 'denied'), related API endpoints, and UI for pending approvals. Introduces configurable audiobook organization path template with validation and preview in settings, updates database schema and migrations for new fields.
Replaces scattered console statements with a unified RMABLogger across backend API routes and services. Adds LOG_LEVEL-based filtering, job-aware database persistence, and context-based logging. Updates documentation to describe the new logging system and usage patterns. Also documents qBittorrent CSRF header fix
Implements optional filesystem scan triggering for Plex and Audiobookshelf after file organization, with new settings in the admin UI, setup wizard, and API. Updates documentation to reflect scan trigger options and improved file organization/cleanup logic. Refactors dropdown menus to use smart positioning and portals for better UX. Adds a version API route and a VersionBadge component to display build info in the header. Updates Docker build to inject version metadata.
This update enhances audiobook file organization by including the ASIN in folder names and embedding it as a custom metadata tag in audio files (M4B/M4A/MP3). Documentation is updated to reflect the new folder naming convention and metadata tagging. Additionally, local login and registration can now be disabled via an environment variable, and the interactive torrent search modal allows custom search titles for all modes.
Implements admin ability to delete requests with soft delete, media file cleanup, and seeding-aware torrent management. Adds new API endpoint, frontend confirmation dialog, and request actions dropdown. Updates database schema with deletedAt and deletedBy fields, and ensures all queries filter out deleted requests. Documentation added for feature and user flow.
Previously, files were always being copied to /media/audiobooks regardless
of the configured media directory in settings. This was caused by:
1. FileOrganizer singleton reading from MEDIA_DIR env var (never set)
instead of database config 'media_dir'
2. Hardcoded /media/audiobooks fallback being used when env var not found
3. Three locations passing hardcoded paths to addOrganizeJob (unused)
Changes:
- Modified getFileOrganizer() to read media_dir from database config
- Made targetPath parameter optional in addOrganizeJob (not used by processor)
- Removed hardcoded /media/audiobooks paths from all addOrganizeJob calls
- Updated organize-files processor to await getFileOrganizer()
- Updated documentation to reflect configuration behavior
Files now correctly copy to the directory configured in setup wizard or
settings page, with /media/audiobooks only as fallback if not configured.
Fixes: User-reported issue where configured media directory was ignored
