🎉 IGM v2.0 🎉

Version 2.0 marks a major milestone for IGM.

Windows users can now run Docker engine natively without Docker Desktop, and proxy-deployed app dashboards are now accessible via the server's IP on the local network, consistent with non-proxy deployments.

This release also brings a new Grass application, ARM emulation improvements, and numerous performance optimisations and bug fixes.

📋 Changelog

New Features ⭐

WSL Native Docker Engine

• Install and run Docker engine directly inside WSL without requiring Docker Desktop. Provides a lighter, faster alternative for Windows users.
• Docker daemon is configured to start automatically on Windows boot, matching Docker Desktop behaviour. Docker must be installed via IGM for this to take effect.

WSL Mirrored Networking

• During native Docker engine setup, IGM auto-configures WSL to use mirrored networking. This allows accessing apps with a web UI directly from the browser via localhost on the host machine rather than WSL's IP address.

Proxy App UI Access

• Web dashboards for proxy-deployed apps are now accessible via browser on the local network, just like non-proxy apps.

Performance & Improvements ⚡

• Optimised Windows IGM wrapper to run significantly faster.
• Optimised UUID generation and architecture detection.
• Improved encryptor for better reliability and edge case handling.
• ARM emulation setup now installs qemu-user-static and binfmt-support natively instead of via Docker.
• Easily reinstall single applications with igm install.
• Overall internal IGM performance improvements.

Bug Fixes 🐛

• Fixed Colima autostart on macOS to reliably wait until Docker is fully ready before continuing.
• Fixed proxy group display sorting for entries 10+.
• Fixed Mysterium UI not accessible when deployed via proxy.
• Fixed proxy port mapping causing non-port mapped apps to stop working.
• Fixed edge case in orphaned apps causing credential file inconsistency.
• Various other minor fixes and improvements.

App Changes 📦

• Removed Bearshare, Packetshare, NodePay, and Network3.
• New Grass application.
  • IGM now uses a custom in-house version.
  • Existing Grass node needs to be uninstalled from IGM.
  • Use igm edit to remove Grass credentials. New version uses user ID as credential.
  • Use igm setup to configure new Grass node or via igm install to install new Grass node.
  • See the following guide on how to obtain user ID.
