Quality of life improvements, more refactoring and /pad deprecation

July 5, 2020 - Reading time: 2 minutes

There were quite some changes in 0.6.14 since the last post:

Added:

• More options. The ssid of the hotspot can be specified during setup. The number of suggestions is now customizable, in total and per service.
• Logged in users can now vote as well. Before the admin had to either log out or open a private tab so they could vote.
• It is now easier to run the icecast docker setup without a stream password. No need for config editing, only STREAM_NOAUTH has to be passed to docker-compose.
• Since the little x in the input field is a little small, the cursor now scrolls to the right after clicking the field, allowing text deletion with the keyboard.

Changed:

• A lot of refactoring happened. Files are now smaller and more modularized.
• Releases contain prebuilt css and js files, so they don't need to be generated in every install.
• Docker containers are split even more. There is no need for a shared static-files volume anymore.
• The configuration file persists between web-interface installs. Before, the config was reset at every install.

Deprecated:

• The /pad feature will probably be removed soon. I don't think anybody actually used it (or even knew it existed).
