OxiCloud 0.5.6

on GitHub

OxiCloud 0.5.6 is a substantial release built from 99 commits across 191 changed files since v0.5.5. The main themes of this release are storage flexibility, smarter deduplication, stronger authentication compatibility, and a much more polished web experience.

Highlights

• Added pluggable storage backends with admin UI support for S3, Azure, and local storage.
• Introduced CDC-based sub-file deduplication powered by FastCDC, BLAKE3 chunk hashing, parallel chunk storage, and manifest-based reconstruction.
• Added a public share page with download support and improved shared, recent, and classic navigation flows.
• Hardened OIDC and auth handling for email-style usernames, sanitized claims.sub, added WWW-Authenticate handshake behavior, and fixed session-expiry issues on HTTP deployments.
• Delivered broad frontend and CSS refactors that simplify the codebase while improving shared items, multi-select actions, search, music navigation, icons, and theming.
• Improved deployment and operations with rustls-only Azure Docker builds, Windows CRLF fixes, PostgreSQL data path fixes, updated docs, and the first steps toward Nix packaging.

New Features

• Pluggable storage backends with admin UI integration for S3, Azure, and local environments.
• Content-defined chunking deduplication with smarter chunk reuse and parallel upload paths.
• Public share page with direct download support.
• Shared-state visibility in the classic file view.
• Better section controls and multi-select action layout in the frontend.
• VitePress documentation site work and expanded localization coverage.

Fixes And Improvements

• Fixed OIDC username provisioning edge cases and claim sanitization.
• Fixed recent-section routing, hash navigation, shared-view behavior, file-list display, device-verification styling, and select-all wiring.
• Restored external thumbnail lookup and switched thumbnail deduplication to blob_hash.
• Reduced Docker build friction by moving Azure crates to rustls and correcting image references.
• Improved performance for hashing, thumbnail generation, audio metadata extraction, cache invalidation, and upload timeout scaling.
• Applied broad JS/CSS/Biome cleanup, improved JS module bundling, and simplified icon handling and theme styling.
• Added Windows CRLF compatibility and PostgreSQL data-location fixes.
