audio extraction happens serverside to opus or mp3
depending on browser support
remuxing (extracting audio without transcoding)
is currently not supported, and is not planned
* progress donuts should include inflight bytes
* changes to stitch-size in settings didn't apply until next refresh
* serverlog was too verbose; truncate chunk hashes
* mention absolute cloudflare limit in readme
rather than sending each file chunk as a separate HTTP request,
sibling chunks will now be fused together into larger HTTP POSTs
which results in unreasonably huge speed boosts on some routes
( `2.6x` from Norway to US-East, `1.6x` from US-West to Finland )
the `x-up2k-hash` request header now takes a comma-separated list
of chunk hashes, which must all be sibling chunks, resulting in
one large consecutive range of file data as the post body
a new global-option `--u2sz`, default `1,64,96`, sets the target
request size as 64 MiB, allowing the settings ui to specify any
value between 1 and 96 MiB, which is cloudflare's max value
this does not cause any issues for resumable uploads; thanks to the
streaming HTTP POST parser, each chunk will be verified and written
to disk as they arrive, meaning only the untransmitted chunks will
have to be resent in the event of a connection drop -- of course
assuming there are no misconfigured WAFs or caching-proxies
the previous up2k approach of uploading each chunk in a separate HTTP
POST was inefficient in many real-world scenarios, mainly due to TCP
window-scaling behaving erratically in some IXPs / along some routes
a particular link from Norway to Virginia,US is unusably slow for
the first 4 MiB, only reaching optimal speeds after 100 MiB, and
then immediately resets the scale when the request has been sent;
connection reuse does not help in this case
on this route, the basic-uploader was somehow faster than up2k
with 6 parallel uploads; only time i've seen this
hooks can be restricted to users with certain permissions, for example
`--xm aw,notify-send` will only `notify-send` if user has write-access
the user's list of permissions are now also included in the json
that is passed to the hook if enabled; `--xm aw,j,notify-send`
will now also stop parsing flags when encountering a blank value,
allowing to specify any initial arguments to the command:
`--xm aw,j,,notify-send,hey` would run `notify-send` with `hey`
as its first argument, and the json would be the 2nd argument,
similarly `--xm ,notify-send,hey` when no flags specified
this is somewhat explained in `--help-hooks`, but
additional related features are planned in the near future
and will all be better documented when the dust settles
if an ftp client tried to list the toplevel folder on a server
where nothing is mounted toplevel, it would syntheisze a
directory listing which included all volumes, even those
which the user would not be able to access
so basically not a problem, just very confusing
mtime the file that was used to produce the folder thumbnail
(rather than the folder itself) since the folder-thumb is
always resolved to the file's thumb in the on-disk cache
if a request body is expected, but request has no content-length,
set the timeout to 1/20 of `--s-tbody`, so 9 seconds by default,
or 3 seconds if it's 60 as recommended in helptext
this gives less confusing behavior if a client accidentally does
something invalid, replying with an error response before the
previous timeout of 186 seconds
also raise the slowloris flag, in case a client bugs out and
keeps making such requests
if a song fails to play for some reason (network loss,
corrupt file), a timer plays the next track after 5s
the timer was not cancelled if the user
started another track in the meantime
the spec doesn't say what you're supposed to do if the target filename of an upload is already taken, but this seems to be the most common behavior on other ftp servers, and is required by wondows 2000 (otherwise it'll freak out and issue a delete and then not actually upload it, nice)
new option `--ftp-no-ow` restores old default behavior of rejecting upload if target filename exists
was intentionally skipped to avoid complexity but enough people have
asked why it doesn't work that it's time to do something about it
turns out it wasn't that bad
* upgrade to partftpy 0.4.0
* workarounds for buggy clients/servers
* improved ipv6 support, especially on macos
* improved robustness on unreliable networks
* make `--tftp4` separate from `--ftp4`
only keep characters `>+-*` if there's less than three of them,
and discard entire prefix if there's more
markdown spec only cares about exactly-one or three-or-more, but
let's keep pairs in case anyone use that as unconventional markup
when there was more than ~700 active connections,
* sendfile (non-https downloads) could fail
* mdns and ssdp could fail to reinitialize on network changes
...because `select` can't handle FDs higher than 512 on windows
(1024 on linux/macos), so prefer `poll` where possible (linux/macos)
but apple keeps breaking and unbreaking `poll` in macos,
so use `--no-poll` if necessary to force `select` instead
metadata is no longer discarded when transcoding to opus or mp3;
this was a good idea back when the transcodes were only used by
the webplayer, but now that folders can be batch-downloaded with
on-the-fly transcoding, it makes sense to keep most of the tags
individual tags are discarded if its value exceeds 1023 letters
this should mainly affect the following:
* traktor beatmaps, size usually somewhere around 100 KiB
* non-standard cover-art embeddings, size around 250 KiB
* XMP (project data from adobe premiere), around 48 KiB
use sigmasks to block SIGINT, SIGTERM, SIGUSR1 from all other threads
also initiate shutdown by calling sighandler directly,
in case this misses anything and that is still unreliable
(discovered by `--exit=idx` being noop once in a blue moon)
* template-based title formatting
* picture embeds are no longer ant-sized
* `--og-color` sets accent color; default #333
* `--og-s-title` forces default title, ignoring e2t
* add a music indicator to song titles because discord doesn't
currently only being used to workaround discord discarding
query strings in opengraph tags, but i'm sure there will be
plenty more wonderful usecases for this atrocity
if a given filesystem were to disappear (e.g. removable storage)
followed by another filesystem appearing at the same location,
this would not get noticed by up2k in a timely manner
fix this by discarding the mtab cache after `--mtab-age` seconds and
rebuild it from scratch, unless the previous values are definitely
correct (as indicated by identical output from `/bin/mount`)
probably reduces windows performance by an acceptable amount
* hasher thread could die if a client would rapidly
upload and delete files (so very unlikely)
* two unprotected calls to register_vpath which was
almost-definitely safe because the volumes
already existed in the registry
adds options `--bauth-last` to lower the preference for
taking the basic-auth password in case of conflict,
and `--no-bauth` to entirely disable basic-authentication
if a client is providing multiple passwords, for example when
"logged in" with one password (the `cppwd` cookie) and switching
to another account by also sending a PW header/url-param, then
the default evaluation order to determine which password to use is:
url-param `pw`, header `pw`, basic-auth header, cookie (cppwd/cppws)
so if a client supplies a basic-auth header, it will ignore the cookie
and use the basic-auth password instead, which usually makes sense
but this can become a problem if you have other webservers running
on the same domain which also support basic-authentication
--bauth-last is a good choice for cooperating with such services, as
--no-bauth currently breaks support for the android app...
plus misc similar technically-incorrect addq usages;
most of these don't matter in practice since they'll
never get a url with a hash, but makes the intent clear
and make sure hashes never get passed around
like they're part of a dirkey, harmless as it is
