Happypandax Versions Save

A cross-platform server and client application for managing and reading manga and doujinshi

v1.0.0-alpha.2

1 year ago

Changes

  • Filters will now update properly (still not editable though)
  • Added a new profile page
  • Note management on the profile page (these are creatable and editable!)
  • Fix: similar items now show properly
  • Added dedicated pages for metadata and download queues
  • Moved plugins from settings to a dedicated page
  • Fix: don't reverse reading queue list
  • Improved search input
  • Implemented some gallery menu items

The webclient has been in the process of being rewritten and is therefore incomplete!

These things do not work:

  • Editing/adding/downloading items
  • other things I probably haven't noticed.... but reading should be working 😎

You will likely get this error: Failed to configure built-in ESearch server, process exit code: 1 also see /data/logs/esearch_stdout.log This is because the built-in Elasticsearch has been updated. You need to delete the folder bin/<your platform>/elasticsearch, and then re-apply the install.

It's alpha, but don't panic:

  • A backup is taken automatically after every upgrade before the application is initialized!
  • If you see an empty library page DON'T PANIC! Go to management and click the "Rebuild index" button, then wait up to a minute before you start seeing items again!

Report issues and talk about momo releases here: https://github.com/happypandax/happypandax/discussions/270 If you're able to, please help complete the webclient rewrite: https://github.com/happypandax/happypandax/tree/dev/packages/client

v1.0.0-alpha

1 year ago

First v1.0.0 (Momo) release! Very rough around the edges!

The webclient has been in the process of being rewritten and is therefore incomplete!

These things do not work:

  • Editing/adding/downloading items
  • Filters updates
  • other things I probably haven't noticed.... but reading should be working 😎

You will likely get this error: Failed to configure built-in ESearch server, process exit code: 1 also see /data/logs/esearch_stdout.log This is because the built-in Elasticsearch has been updated. You need to delete the folder bin/<your platform>/elasticsearch, and then reinstall v1.0.0.

It's alpha, but don't panic:

  • A backup is taken automatically after every upgrade, before the application is initialized!
  • If you see an empty library page DON'T PANIC! Go to management and click the "Rebuild index" button, then wait up to a minute before you start seeing items again!

I encourage reporting issues and talking about momo releases here: https://github.com/happypandax/happypandax/discussions/270 If you're able to, please help complete the webclient rewrite: https://github.com/happypandax/happypandax/tree/dev/packages/client

v0.13.3

3 years ago

Changes in this patch release:

Important: If you're upgrading from v0.13.0 or v0.13.1 you might still be getting an error about not being able to start esearch. In that case please delete the bin/[PLATFORM]/elasticsearch folder found where you installed HPX and reinstall this update.
  • fixed bottom drawer button in webclient not working
  • fixed error occurring when adding galleries (note that galleries were still being added successfully, if they don't show up, please reindex your library)
  • fixed an error occurring during indexing

Hello 😊 it's been a while. I hope you're doing well.

I think you will appreciate this release.

You might also notice that the releases has more than doubled in size. This is because a whole ElasticSearch installation is now also included. This is the cost of wanting everything to be plug and play, please don't mind it.

Highlights

  • improved performance across the board 🚀
  • Webclient improvements
  • Working regex search
  • Send galleries to the metadata queue after download 😍 no more manually fetching
