Change Log

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. This project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

v2.2.2 - 2017-03-13

For more details, see the full changelog and milestone.

This patch release brings a lot of dependency upgrades and a few fixes. Passing options to the lounge CLI (lounge start --port 8080, etc.) now works as expected without requiring --. We have also disabled ping timeouts for now to hopefully fix automatic reconnection. Finally, upgrading irc-framework allows us to fix an extra couple of bugs.

You will now notice a new (?) icon at the bottom of the sidebar. It is home of a help center that currently details supported shortcuts and commands. It will be improved over time, but we encourage contributors to help us improve it.

Note that as of this release, lounge without any arguments wil display the help information (mirroring lounge --help). Prior to this release, it used to start a server, which must now be done explicitly using lounge start.

v2.2.0 - 2017-01-31

For more details, see the full changelog and milestone.

Another long-overdue release for The Lounge!

On the client, it is now possible to generate URLs that pre-fill connection inputs in public mode, a date separator makes it into the chats, /away and /back commands are now supported, idle time gets displayed on /whois.
Also, the client does not abruptly refresh when connection is lost anymore, and user search has been slightly improved. Note however that these last 2 items are still not optimal, but improvements are underway!

On the server, more logging! The debug option is now an object instead of a boolean, so make sure to update your configuration file accordingly. More details here.
There are changes revolving around user configuration autoloading: it has been greatly improved and therefore it is now enabled by default. Make sure to remove the autoload option from your configuration files.

See the full changelog

Here comes another release with some nice additions!

v2.0.0 - 2016-09-24

See the full changelog

After more than 5 months in the works, v2.0.0 is finally happening, and it's shipping with lots of new and enhanced features! 🎉

First of all, the backend IRC library is completely different, which was the first step to deciding on a major release. This change brings many improvements and fixes, including support for auto-reconnection! This also allows us to easily improve our IRCv3 compliance.

Main changes on the server include support for WEBIRC, oidentd and LDAP. On the client, users will notice a lot of improvements about reporting unseen activity (notifications, markers, etc.), support for custom highlights, a new loading page, an auto-expanding message input, a theme selector, and more.

Administrators should note that the channel list format in user configuration files has changed. The old format is deprecated, but it will be automatically converted when the server starts (support may or may not be removed later). Additionally, The Lounge now only runs on Node v4 and up.

The above is only a small subset of changes. A more detailed list can be found below. The following list features the most noticeable changes only, and more details can be found on all v2.0.0 pre-releases.

v2.0.0-rc.2 - 2016-09-21 [Pre-release]

See the full changelog

This release candidate only fixes a UI bug affecting iOS 8 users, introduced in v2.0.0-pre.5.

Fixed

v2.0.0-rc.1 - 2016-09-17 [Pre-release]

See the full changelog

Prior to this release, users of Safari 10 were not able to access The Lounge anymore, because of a conscious change the WebKit made to their support of CSP, as explained here. This release addresses this issue.

Another notable change is the removal of tooltips on mobiles, as hovering states on mobile devices breaks in different kind of ways. Hopefully there will be a better solution in the future, or better support across mobiles.

This is also the first release candidate for v2.0.0. This means only critical bug fixes will be merged before releasing v2.0.0.

Changed

  • Explicitly authorize websockets in CSP header (#597 by @astorije)

Removed

  • Disable tooltips on mobile to prevent them to stay after clicking (#612 by @astorije)

v2.0.0-pre.6 - 2016-08-10 [Pre-release]

See the full changelog

LDAP! That's all there is to be found in this pre-release, but it should please some administrators out there. Big thanks to @thisisdarshan and @lindskogen for sticking with us on this one.

This feature will remain in beta version until the official v2.0.0 release.

Added

v2.0.0-pre.5 - 2016-08-07 [Pre-release]

See the full changelog

What an exciting release! It's been in the works for more than a month, but the perks are worth the wait.

On the user side, some long-awaited new features can now be found: The Lounge can now track custom highlights, it comes with an auto-expanding text field, and an unread message marker helps keeping track of what happened when you were not watching. A lot of improvements and various bug fixes have been made to the UI. Note that scrollbar look-and-feel is now delegated to the browser and OS. Use the custom CSS editor and your OS settings to customize them.

Administrators will notice a different format for channels in the user configuration files, and the Docker-related files have been moved to a dedicated repository. Many bugs have been solved on the server as well.

Changed

  • Store channels in array format in user configuration files (#417 by @xPaw)

v2.0.0-pre.4 - 2016-06-29 [Pre-release]

See the full changelog

This pre-release adds a loading window, helpful on slow connections. It also implements token persistency, ensuring users do not have to authenticate at every server restart. As a side effect, security is improved by forcing logging out users on all devices when changing their password.

All generated URLs are now HTTP by default, except when explicitly set to HTTPS. For example, www.example.com will link to http://www.example.com. One needs to share https://www.example.com to point others to a HTTPS location.

As a few users have been having issues when running The Lounge with a non-supported Node.js version, we now detect it early to avoid cryptic errors.

This pre-release also adds minor UI improvements, and fixes from the previous version. While The Lounge still needs a lot of efforts to be fully accessible, this version slightly improves accessibility on clickable nickname.

Internally, we now keep track of our code coverage, which we do not enforce strictly at the moment.

Changed

  • Perform node version check as soon as possible (#409 by @xPaw)
  • Prepend http protocol to www. links in chat (#410 by @xPaw)

  • Fix crash in public mode (#413 by @maxpoulin64)
  • Do not print user loaded message in public mode (#415 by @xPaw)

  • Fix channel join regression and fix possibly joining parted channels (#411 by @xPaw)

v2.0.0-pre.3 - 2016-06-15 [Pre-release]

See the full changelog

This release introduces a few internal changes as well as two noticeable ones. When using the CLI, the home path can now be set with the LOUNGE_HOME environment variable, to avoid repeating --home over and over. On the client, sorting channels will now be saved in the user configuration.

Fixed

v2.0.0-pre.1 - 2016-05-22 [Pre-release]

See the full changelog
