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.
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 pure CSS card stack animations for BookDate recommendations, including smooth exit and advance transitions. Adds local caching of library cover thumbnails during scans, updates database schema and API to serve cached covers, and enhances BookDate to support 'favorites' scope with a book picker modal. Updates admin settings validation logic for Prowlarr, improves indexer state management, and documents new features and backend changes.
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.
Introduced a Vitest-based backend unit testing framework with supporting scripts, helpers, and GitHub Actions integration. Refactored the admin settings page to a modular architecture, splitting monolithic logic into feature-specific tabs and hooks for improved maintainability and testability. Updated documentation to reflect the new testing setup and settings architecture, and added new dependencies for testing utilities.
Refactors admin settings to use a new IndexersTab and card-based indexer management UI, supporting category selection and improved configuration. Updates backend and API routes to handle indexer categories, propagate ASIN for better search scoring, and group indexers by categories to optimize Prowlarr searches. Enhances documentation to clarify non-terminal request matching and auto-completion behavior. Adds new reusable components for indexer management and category selection.
Introduces support for custom OpenAI-compatible AI providers with configurable base URLs, including UI, backend validation, and connection testing. Enhances qBittorrent integration to support HTTP Basic Auth for reverse proxies, adds detailed debug logging, and updates documentation for both features. Also improves login page description logic and AI prompt generation for recommendations.
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
Adds soft-delete support for local users, including backend, API, and UI changes to allow admins to delete local users while preserving their requests. Updates user queries to exclude deleted users and allows username reuse for deleted accounts. Refines search and ranking logic for torrents: uses title-only queries for broader results, increases max results to 100, applies a minimum score threshold (30/100), and logs detailed ranking breakdowns. Updates the ranking algorithm to prioritize title/author match, adjusts scoring weights, and improves BookDate compatibility with Audiobookshelf by disabling rating-based features when unsupported. Enhances file copy operations for large files, improves metadata tagging, and updates documentation to reflect new search and ranking strategies.
