Server

New

• /api/eas & Hotfolder: Support hierarchical linked object linking. With this an uploaded folder structure (as uploaded into a collection) can be turned into links into a hierarchical object type. [a379c9db2] [4c89b2ab1] [7ca1d8954] [34978db2e] [0ec0c92af]

• /api/eas: Added new query parameter filenames. This allows frontends to send a patch alongside with a filename to make use of the new feature to link to hierarchical linked objects. [726f3408e]

Improved

• Zoomer: Support WEBP extension. Now files ending .webp will publish a iiif_url and zoom_url. The zoomer will still produce JPG tiles, but it can do it from WEBP files now too. [112cbb0c1]

• System Rights: Re-ordered frontend features rights. [19a4b204b]

• File Worker: Add DPI parameter to recipe browserthumbs. Also, lowered log severity for actions from INF to DBG level. [80b27dae5]

• /api/collection: Don't require a PIN from owner. Before this patch, fylr would require the pin for a collection also from the owner of the collection. This was wrong. It was already allowed for users carrying the BAG_ACL right, but the owner check was omitted. [f53a3fd73]

• fylr backup: Backup & restore plugins before anything else. With this patch the plugins are output before any other objects. This fixes problem with mapping which couldn't be imported because they require a plugin to be enabled. [f4d8e1cde]

Fixed

• /api/eas & Hotfolder: Index collection after new file injects. This fixes a missing OBJECT_INDEX event which caused the frontend to not properly update collection counts and collection detail if objects were added via Hotfolder or /api/eas. Also, fixed a case where updates didn't work with a datamodel using reverse objects. [18a02488e] [9a4b37c26] [6c9f74e4a]

• /api/search[aggregations]: Aggregations of first level polyhierarchical objects are fixed. Thisd requires a manual re-index for affected instances. [20ed1a992]

• Watermarking & Caption: Reverted Imagemagick induced change in watermark & caption rendering. The bug in Imagemagick which triggered this has been fixed in Debian forky (this is what we are using in the fylr Docker image). The patch in 6.31.0 caused problems on Windows. [6b17105c4]

• /api/config: Fixed missing access to path containing special characters: . | # @ \ * ! ? [ ] { } ( ). Some of these characters were supported already before. [eda44eb3e]

• /api/group: Index all users if _auth_method_group_maps is used. If a group uses this, we must re-index all users when that group is saved. Before, this was not done, so the indexed user were not correct in cases where e.g. a group assigned itself to all users. [4e21bf430]

• /api/db: Fixed parallel access for db_pre_save plugins. If a db_pre_save plugin would access api/db, fylr would dead lock due to impossible lock acquire. Fixed by trying to get the lock, and sleeping 10ms before trying the next time. [28d08e877]

• /api/oai: Avoid xslt error for empty sets. If an OAI set is empty (using ListRecords), the XSLT sheet conversion would eventually fail because it was fed no data. This fix doesn't call the XSLT sheet if there is no records found in the set. [6d42e4288]

Frontend

New

• Collection Upload : Adds support in the collection upload configuration for the new hierarchical linked object property. This new functionality allows mapping a directory to a hierarchy of linked objects. See backend notes for more information.

• Directory Drop: We have added support for drag and drop of directories in fylr. This works both in collection upload and in the new editor modal. This functionality allows the user to drop a directory (which can include subdirectories) with assets, and all assets will be uploaded to the app.

Fixed

• Group Default Frontend Pref: Fixed the functionality to configure default preferences for users in groups. This feature was not working correctly and users never received the default prefs.

• Quick Access Objecttypes: Fixed the construction of the hierarchy for polyhierarchical object types configured to appear in quick access. Before this patch, values could appear with completely incorrect hierarchies.

• BG Task From Collection: Fixed the creation of Background tasks from search collections.

• Base config: Fixed how default values are displayed in multiline fields in the base config. They now follow the same pattern as other textual fields, showing the default value as a placeholder.

• CSS: General CSS fixes have been applied.

• Expert Search Filter: Fixed a bug that hid the modifier buttons (has value / without value) for nested tables when using the expert search filter.

• Unsaved change Dialog: Fixed a bug that caused the unsaved changes dialog to require confirmation twice in some managers. Additionally, the message has been improved in certain managers for this dialog.

• Menu list Tooltips: Fixed a bug where tooltips in menus were not displayed correctly.
