- We understand what a pasta is, but let's avoid the situation when you send a link to your mom that ends with microbin.eu/pasta/dog-bat-cat and they misunderstand it.
- Also replaced /pastalist with just /list
- Internally kept "pasta" instead of "upload" to confuse everyone adopting MicroBin after v2
- Implemented configuration telemetry
- Added option to disable version checking
- Updated URL for versioning and telemetry endpoint
- Added option to opt-in for a public MicroBin server list in the future
By parsing some json served by the MicroBin website, MicroBin can now check whether there is a newer version out there, and display the update information on the admin screen.
This is the first, early beta version of Microbin 2.
Microbin 2 brings a lot of improvements to Microbin. To name just the most important ones:
- Server-side and client-side encryption for uploads, including file attachments,
- SQLite database support by default,
- Reworked upload settings, 5 privacy levels,
- New administrator console (/admin),
- Automatic syntax highlighting,
- Image and video embedding,
- Refreshed styling and QoL features,
- New user guide page.
Beyond these,
- Added file upload size limits,
- Added sample .env file with description for each environmental variable,
- Removed Info page (moved to admin page),
- Pasta list now sorted from newer to older,
- Pasta terminology replaced with Upload,
- Files are now served with a proper service, not just as a public directory,
- Pastas are now stored in /attachments instead of /public.
As this is the first beta of Microbin v2, and I do not recommend updating to this in critical environments as long as we are in beta stage. I expect many bugs to emerge and v2 is also getting a few more smaller QoL features from the backlog. README and website won't be updated until v2 is stable and well-tested.
