agersant/polaris 0.13.0 on GitHub

API changes

Bumped API version number to 6.0.
Added new endpoints to manage users, mount points and settings more granularly.
Added support for authenticating via bearer tokens generated by the /auth endpoint. These token can be submitted via Bearer HTTP Authorization headers, or as a URL parameters (auth_token).
Authentication using cookies or Basic HTTP Authorization headers is deprecated and will be removed in a future revision.
Authentication cookies no longer expire after 24 hours. The newly added bearer tokens also have no expiration data.
Last.fm account linking now requires a short-lived auth token obtain from the newly added `lastfm/link_token' endpoint.

⚠️Breaking change⚠️ If you use a config file, please put the reindex_every_n_seconds and album_art_pattern in a [settings] section.
⚠️Breaking change⚠️ The installation process on Linux has changed a lot. See the README for updated installation instructions. A summary of the changes is available here.
Embedded album art is now supported for mp3, flac and m4a files (thanks @saecki).
OPUS files can now be indexed and streamed (thanks @zaethan).
APE files can now be indexed and streamed.
The collection indexer has been rewritten for better performance. This also fixed an issue where on some machines, the web client would be unusable while indexing (thanks @inicola for the code reviews).
Thumbnail generation is now slightly faster, and works with more pixel formats (notably RGBA16).
Polaris now uses actix-web instead or rocket. This change fixes numerous performance and stability issues.

The default album art pattern now includes the jpeg extension in addition to jpg.
Album art patterns are now case insensitive.
