Magic_Folder 24.3.0 (2024-03-07)

Bug Fixes

  • The new "read-only" option for join introduced in 24.1.0 unintentionally became required; fix this behavior, and document the feature. (#748)

Magic_Folder 24.1.0 (2024-01-31)

Features

  • The status API now exposes events related to invites (#708)
  • Invited devices may decline "write" authority by excluding a Personal capability in their reply (#734)
  • Added the ability to accept invites that are read-only. (#735)

Bug Fixes

  • Do not continuously download updates for conflicted files (#731)
  • Stop using deprecated attr.validators.provides (#739)
  • Properly parse Welcome JSON from tahoe-lafs after 0.18.0 (#743)

Misc/Other

Magic_Folder 23.6.0 (2023-06-26)

No significant changes.

Magic_Folder 23.6.0 (2023-06-26)

Features

  • Added a description of the datamodel to the documentation (#702)
  • Conflict files now named after the Participant (not Author) (#711)

Bug Fixes

  • "magic-folder status" properly parses scan/poll events (#717)
  • Handle updates to conflicted files more robustly (#719)

Other Changes

  • Bump dependencies, including security-relevant cryptography library (#716)

Magic_Folder 23.5.0 (2023-05-02)

Backwards Incompatible Changes

  • The /status endpoint now produces event-based output

    This means the messages emitted via the WebSocket are entirely different. Please see the documentation under "Status API" for the new method. Ordinarily, this would mean a new version of the API (e.g. /v2/) but we do not yet declare a stable /v1 API so it has simply changed.

    Please get in touch if this causes you problems. (#686)

Bug Fixes

  • Old or redundant updates from other participants are correctly ignored (#703)
  • If a client saw multiple other Participants with the same update a Conflict was produced (#713)

Magic_Folder 23.3.1 (2023-03-20)

Features

  • Various consistency, formatting and content updates to documentation (#699)
  • Add some missing magic-folder-api subcommands: list-conflicts, file-status, (#700)

Bug Fixes

  • An incoming delete is correctly ignored if there's no local file to delete (#704)
  • Cancelling an invite no longer reports an error via the status API (#706)

Magic_Folder 23.3.0 (2023-03-06)

Features

  • Add ability to cancel an in-progress invite (#692)

Bug Fixes

  • Our Personal DMD is now checked vs local database state

    It's possible with a crash or exit at the right time to have downloaded an update and noted that in the database but not yet succeeded in updating the Personal DMD. We now check at startup for this condition and fix it. (#668)

Misc/Other

Magic_Folder 23.1.1 (2023-01-30)

Features

  • Support for "inviting" another participant to a folder (experimental).

    There is now a specification and implementation for "inviting" another participant who may "join" a given folder. The two computers communicate via the "magic-wormhole" protocol, allowing for secure communication setup with a short, human-pronouncable short password. (#232)

  • Allow for experimental features (#680)

Misc/Other

Magic_Folder 22.10.1 (2022-10-03)

Misc/Other

Magic_Folder 22.10.0 (2022-10-01)

Features

  • pidfile access is locked with "filelock" library (#670)

Magic_Folder 22.9.0 (2022-09-14)

Features

  • Automatically exit when stdin is closed

    This facilitates subprocess management, specifically cleanup. When a parent process is running magic-folder and exits without time to do "proper" cleanup at least the stdin descriptor will be closed. magic-folder notices this and exits. (#665)

Misc/Other

Magic_Folder 22.8.0 (2022-08-04)

No significant changes.

Magic_Folder 22.8.0 (2022-08-04)

Bug Fixes

  • Stashed file-paths are unique even with same capability (#662)

Magic_Folder 22.5.0 (2022-05-13)

Features

  • A pid-file is now written

    If a previous instance is running _and_ appears to be an actual magic-folder process, it is killed. Otherwise, magic-folder will refuse to start. (#644)

Magic_Folder 22.2.1 (2022-02-23)

Features

  • The status API now shows last-scan and last-poll timestamps (#646)

Misc/Other

Magic_Folder 22.2.0 (2022-02-14)

Features

  • Check "connected enough" constantly, not just at startup.

    Further, refuse to do "mutable" operations if our Tahoe-LAFS client is not connected to a "happy" number of servers. (#543)

Bug Fixes

  • Use Cooperator to copy (potentially large) files (#196)
  • Further avoid overwriting local changes (#454)
  • "magic-folder status" gives better error when service not running (#616)
  • Update several dependencies (#636)

  • Create LocalSnapshot instances. LocalSnapshots are an intermediate snapshot representation that is used to maintain history even when the user modifies files while offline. (#139)
