rtuszik/photon-docker 1.0.0-beta on GitHub

Release v1.0.0-beta

The release delivers a complete rewrite from shell scripts to a more robust Python application.

Versioning Change

The versioning for this Docker image has been decoupled from the upstream Photon version. This allows for more intuitive versioning that reflects changes to the container environment and scripts, rather than centering around changes to the underlying Photon application.

Breaking Changes

The data volume path has been changed from /photon/photon_data to /photon/data.
docker-compose.yml update:
```
volumes:
-   - photon_data:/photon/photon_data
+   - photon_data:/photon/data
```

New Features

Non-Root User: The container now runs processes as a dedicated non-root user (photon) for improved security. The user and group IDs can be set via PUID and PGID environment variables to manage volume permissions.
Notifications: Support for status notifications (e.g., update completion, errors) has been added via Apprise. This can be configured with the APPRISE_URLS environment variable. #100
Docker Healthcheck: A HEALTHCHECK instruction has been added to the Dockerfile. The container will show as unhealthy whenever the photon-api is not available.

Improvements

Process Management: All startup, update, and monitoring tasks are now managed by a Python application.
Atomic Updates: The index update mechanism now performs an atomic move.
Download Logic: The index downloader now supports resumable downloads and performs more thorough disk space checks. Closes #71
Build and Release Pipeline: The CI workflow for building and publishing Docker images has been updated to better handle pre-release (beta) and stable (latest) tags. A workflow for code quality checks using ruff, ty and vulture was added.
