v1.2.0-rc1 - minor updates

on GitHub

We're pleased to be publishing the release candidate for 1.2.0 (the official release should follow in a week or two). This version contains bug fixes and minor improvements.

Many thanks to @bogdomania, @csmith, @edmund-huber, @jesopo, @jwheare, @poVoq, @prawnsalad, and stealthgin for reporting issues and contributing code reviews, and also to @bogdomania, Forbidden (cptbl00dra1n), Nuve, @streaps, and UnLokitoFeliz for contributing translations.

This release includes a change to the config file format: the old server.listen format for configuring listeners has been replaced by a new server.listeners format. See the bundled oragono.yaml configuration file for a commented example. For now, Oragono maintains backwards compatibility with the old format. To minimize potential downtime, we recommend the following workflow:

1. Without rewriting your config file, upgrade your oragono binary to the new 1.2.x version and restart your server
2. Rewrite your configuration file to use the new server.listeners format
3. Rehash your server, confirming that the rewritten config file is valid and correct

This release includes a database change. If you have datastore.autoupgrade set to true in your configuration, it will be automatically applied when you restart Oragono. Otherwise, you can update the database manually by running oragono upgradedb (see the manual for complete instructions).
