V1.43.0
Breaking Changes
You will need to update both the server and the mobile app to version v1.43.0 to have the app works correctly.
Highlights
Hello all, welcome to release v1.43.0 of Immich. This release also marked the first birthday of Immich, which was officially born on Jan 23rd, 2022 on GitLab. I am very happy to see that the project has grown so much in the past year. I would like to thank all the contributors and users for their support and contributions. I hope that you will continue to support the project in the future.
This release is a big one, it contains a lot of new features and improvements.
1. Auto-discovery URL on the mobile app
With the new auto-discovery endpoint on the web, now when you put in https://immich.your-domain.com the form will automatically add in /api when making the request to the server.
2. Change of the token authentication mechanism
This change will mitigate the issue of mobile app users getting logged out after 30 days, and also enable management logged-in instances in the upcoming release. So you can log out remote instance from your admin console.
3. Additional options to public shared link
The public shared link now come with the Show metadata and Allow download options.
Please note that the server just prevents showing metadata on the app, if you allow download, the public user still can download the original file and look at the metadata.
We have yet to implement a file-level EXIF stripping mechanism
4. Jobs can now be rerun on all assets
We revamp the job mechanism and add an additional option to re-run the job of generating thumbnails, video encoding, metadata extraction, and object detection on all assets. This paired with the recent fix in incorrect creation time from the EXIF information will help you to fix your instance.
Some of the other notable changes
- Add a favorite page on the web
- Add an additional option for video transcoding, now it is smarter. Any video that is not under the desired codec (h264 as default) will be transcoded.
- File's hash is now computed on uploaded, this fixes the issue with timing out of the request.
- Further clean up the code base for more advanced features.
- We have improved the code base by adding more tests, and additional CI/CD pipelines that will ensure the quality of the application in the future in each release and reduce the number of regression bugs.
As always, please consider supporting the project.
🎉 Cheer! 🎉
