Vienna 3.5.6

on GitHub

• Vienna is now notarized (needed by macOS Catalina and later)
• Much improved OpenReader support :

  • sensibly decrease the number of network requests:

    • use single 'mark-all-as-read' requests for marking folders read
    • avoid requesting feeds which haven't been updated

  • work around a blockade put on by Inoreader

  • add ‘hidden’ preference to use specific AppId/AppKey with Inoreader:

    Each user of Inoreader user is able to define (and monitor) a personal
    set of AppId / AppKey values through Inoreader preferences located at
    https://www.inoreader.com/all_articles#preferences-developer

    To have Vienna use these values instead of the default one, you have to
    type in Terminal two commands similar to the following:

    defaults write uk.co.opencommunity.vienna2 SyncingAppId 9876543210
defaults write uk.co.opencommunity.vienna2 SyncingAppKey JrS2smGyidtsxBOytDN1OWsSPcGURKWR

    To get back to the default values:

    defaults delete uk.co.opencommunity.vienna2 SyncingAppId
defaults delete uk.co.opencommunity.vienna2 SyncingAppKey

  • adapt to feed identifiers used by TheOldReader and FreshRSS (numerical Ids instead of URLs)

  • improve feed infos synchronisation between Vienna and servers (feed name, homepage, folder/label)

  • fix a problem with credential input in sync preferences panel

  • improve first authentication on OpenReader server

• Fix feed subscription button in browser view
• Fix some problems with enabling/disabling of menu items and toolbar items
• Trim author names in database
• Update address of ArsTechnica feed
• Update components (FMDB, TRVSURLSessionOperation)
• Modernize code, localization & building tools

Note : this version will upgrade the database ; but the newer version of the database remains fully compatible with all Vienna 3.x.x versions. So there is no reason to fear upgrading, or at least testing this 3.5.6 version.
