Sharry v1.3.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-05-03 // almost 4 years ago
  • ๐Ÿš€ This release contains an important bug fix and a new language for the web-ui.

    • ๐Ÿ”จ Refactoring of the webapp to externalize all strings for being easier to translate.
    • โž• Added German translation.
    • ๐Ÿ›  Fixes a bug where the current file size in the db was wrongly advertised, resulting in ocassionally re-uploading already present chunks of data. This fixes problems from cancelled requests by the server. Now even if a large request is cancelled due to server timeouts, the client can continue at the last uploaded share.chunk-size (which is 512K by default) chunk. Before this fix, the client would have resend the entire request, although the server already had parts of it stored.
    • ๐Ÿ‘ Allow to configure the response timeout of the http server. The default is now set to 4 minutes.
    • ๐Ÿ”„ Changes default config values for webapp.chunk-size from 100M to 10M. This is a saner default for slow connections as the server may timeout for large requests like 100M. This means slower but more reliable uploads. You can still safely set it to 100M for faster connections.
    • ๐Ÿ”„ Change default settings for session-valid to 8 minutes and introduce a new setting to allow configuring the refresh interval of the webapp when retrieving auth tokens (default is 4 minutes).

    ๐ŸŒ Any help with translation is very much appreciated! There is a wiki page for a description on how to proceed. Just open issues for questions and/or other feedback.
