Welcome to the 0.20.0
release of Hoarder! This release adds internationalization support, new markdown editor, mobile app improvements, broken link management and more! As usual, we're welcoming our new contributors: @Tukks, @vhsdream, @sweepies, @PeterDaveHello, @wuast94 and @eltociear!
If you're enjoying Hoarder, you can consider supporting it here ☕️ or via github here.
New Features
- Hoarder's UI now comes in multiple languages!
- You can change the language of the UI now to English, German, French, Swedish, Simplified and Traditional Chinese.
- If you want to see your language there or want to improve some existing translation, you can do that via weblate here.
- New experimental WYSIWYG markdown editor for notes by @Tukks!
- You'll now get a preview of the notes you're writing as you're writing them!
- A bunch of mobile app improvements:
- You can now manage tags from the app. Super overdue, I know.
- We have a new cleaner "info" page with the ability to edit title/tags/lists all in one page.
- The mobile app now looks slightly more native. We've got rid of the dedicated search tag, switched to native modals, and used native page headers when possible.
- Note: The apps are yet to be approved by apple & google.
- Broken Link management:
- Hoarder now stores the status codes it got when crawling websites which will allow you to identify and decide what to do about broken links.
- This is now mainly useful for people doing large imports into hoarder, but in the future, we'll use the same mechanism to support automatic link liveness healthchecks.
- Chrome as an optional dependency (aka minimal installation):
- Chrome is no longer a hard dependency. This is useful for people running hoarder in resource constrained environments.
- If you don't specify a
BROWSER_WEB_URL
, hoarder will fallback to a plain HTTP requests to the websites you add instead of crawling them with chrome. - Without chrome, you'll lose the ability to get screenshots from the websites you crawl, and websites that heavily rely on javascript won't work properly.
- With chrome and meilisearch being optional dependencies, you can now get a single-container minimal installation of hoarder by sacrificing some of the features.
- New installation methods:
- Debian / Ubuntu one click installation script (docs) by @vhsdream
- If you're a proxmox user, you can also get a one click LXC container running hoarder using proxmox's helper scripts again thanks to @vhsdream.
- PikaPod (docs) are now offering paid hoarder hosting (~$3/month) for the less tech savvy folks out there. Disclaimer: they're sharing some of their revenue from Hoarder with us.
- Tags placeholder in AI prompt customization:
- You can use the placeholders
$tags
,$aiTags
,$userTags
in the prompt. These placeholders will be replaced with all tags, ai generated tags or human created tags when automatic tagging is performed thanks to @kamtschatka. - With that, you can use this to instruct the LLM to only use existing tags (instead of coming up with new ones). Be careful though if you have a lot of tags as it might increase the cost of the tagging significantly.
- This mechanism is just a temporary solution. We're working on a mechanism to support this natively, in a much cheaper way.
- You can use the placeholders
- New community projects documentation page (here):
- With the release of the REST API in the last version, we started seeing some community projects pop up. So we're starting a new documentation page to list them out for visibility.
- Hoarder now has a raycast extension and an alfred workflow thanks to @foru17 and @yinan-c. Go install them now!
- If you develop a new extension for hoarder, let us know as we'd love to feature it in that page!
- Others:
- We've added the ability to show admin warnings in the admin panels for misconfigurations or future migrations.
UX Improvements
- We're now trimming email addresses out of whitespaces during signin thanks to @sweepies!
Fixes
- AI summarization sometimes included the LLM's response to the prompt (e.g. "Ok, I'll summarize ..."). We're now instructing the model to only respond with the summary.
- Fix broken homepage when hitting a bookmark with an invalid image URL.
- Multiple worker reliability improvements specially in countries with restricted internet.
- The worker container doesn't need to download pnpm on startup anymore as it's now bundled in the container.
- The crawler's adblock list download now has a timeout and can be completely bypassed with
CRAWLER_ENABLE_ADBLOCKER=false
. - The worker was sometimes hanging in the screenshot call. This now has a timeout as well.
