Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

2.5.1 - 2026-08-03

Added

• Template regions now include a dedicated advanced animation modal for editing intro, outro, and Attention Seekers settings directly.

Changed

• Template region animation settings now store as a single JSON object with intro, outro, and loop keys.
• The template editor advanced animation field now edits the JSON object directly instead of separate preset selects.
• Animate.css is now loaded from vendored assets so template previews and player rendering use the local copy.

Fixed

• Existing databases now migrate legacy animation columns into animation_json and then drop the old columns.

2.5.0 - 2026-08-03

Added

• Template regions now support intro, exit, and Attention Seekers animation presets in the editor, with in-canvas preview controls.

Changed

• The template editor now locks editing while preview playback is running so animation changes are easier to inspect.

Fixed

• Existing databases now receive the template region animation columns through the versioned migration path.

2.4.2 - 2026-08-02

Added

• Screen-level controls are now shown on the dashboard for quicker access to screen actions.
• Connected clients can now be moved to another screen from the dashboard, and the player redirects to the new screen after the binding updates.
• Playlist slide config now includes a mute toggle for video and RTMP items, and the player honors the stored mute state during playback.

Changed

• Playlist canvas lock now stores canvas_id on c_playlists and links directly to c_canvas_sizes.
• Playlist add and edit now keep the selected canvas size tied to the playlist form flow, so canvas changes stay consistent while editing.
• RBAC permission sections now follow the same order as the admin sidebar, with section spacing kept in 10-point increments.
• Admin add/edit pages now share form view-model helpers and common form shells across data sources, signage, RBAC, and user settings, reducing duplicated template markup.
• Playlist editing now goes through a shared form page helper with dedicated schedule-rule cards and drag sorting, keeping slide rows and rule state in sync.
• Data sources now use per-section route modules for API sources, RSS feeds, and timetables, while the shared controller only keeps the root /data-sources redirect.
• The consolidated admin shell also refreshed shared layout, toast, login, and error rendering to match the newer helper registration flow.
• Connected client row actions now use consistent icon-and-label buttons for pause and blackout across the server-rendered page and live dashboard updates.

Fixed

• Canvas filtering for playlist slides now follows the selected canvas size id instead of a derived signature.
• Saving API sources and RSS feeds no longer throws an internal server error after the route split, because the shared data-source refresh task service is wired through the web bootstrap again.

2.4.1 - 2026-08-02

Changed

• Playlist canvas size is now stored on c_playlists.canvas_signature and the migration backfills existing single-canvas playlists.

Fixed

• Playlist canvas sizing no longer relies on startup bootstrap logic.

2.4.0 - 2026-08-02

Added

• Playlist slide scheduling now supports multiple OR-ed rule blocks instead of a single date-or-time schedule.

Changed

• Playlist slide schedule data now stores rule sets in schedule_rules_json, and the migration backfills legacy schedule columns before dropping them.

Fixed

• Legacy schedule_mode, date, time, and day columns are removed from c_playlist_slides after the new rule schema is installed.

2.3.0 - 2026-08-02

Added

• Shared add/edit form templates now cover API sources, RSS feeds, announcements, canvas sizes, screens, and templates, reducing duplicate page markup.
• Schedule data source CRUD was added for grouped events in the admin UI.
• The schedule region was added for rendering grouped events in slides and player playback.
• Schedule data now flows through scheduleGroups in the slide editor and player payloads, letting the schedule region show upcoming or current entries from a selected group.

Changed

• Admin save actions were standardized around the shared saveActionButtons helper, including save, save-and-close, save-and-new, cancel, and delete controls.
• Admin routes and page renderers now route through the shared form/view helpers instead of separate add/edit templates for the refactored sections.
• Toast, error, login, and shared layout rendering were refreshed to line up with the consolidated admin shell and helper registration flow.

Fixed

• Canvas size defaults now seed only once during bootstrap when c_canvas_sizes is empty, instead of running from the schema layout path on every startup.
• The schema bootstrap file is now limited to table layout definitions, with one-time seed data handled by the bootstrap layer.

2.2.2 - 2026-08-01

Fixed

• The theme bootstrap now resolves saved auto to an actual dark or light value on first paint, so explicit dark mode no longer flashes white while the page loads.
• The shared app header is now sticky so the top navigation stays visible while scrolling.

2.2.1 - 2026-08-01

Fixed

• Managed-font source files are now tracked correctly so packaged releases include the src/web/lib/media module instead of shipping a broken build.

2.2.0 - 2026-08-01

Added

• Announcement management is now wired for the admin UI and player overlay, with color, template, and expiry controls.
• Time / Date regions now render live in the editor and player.

Changed

• Announcement lists now default-sort by Description and show the affected screens for each announcement.
• Role add and edit pages now include a Cancel action alongside the save buttons.
• Announcement publishing now only targets explicitly assigned screens; unassigned announcements no longer publish globally.

Fixed

• Announcement screen labels now correctly distinguish No Screens, partial assignments, and All Screens.
• Role duplicate-name validation on edit now checks the correct RBAC table.

2.1.1 - 2026-08-01

Added

• API source latest-response viewing now supports collapsing and expanding all JSON sections from the edit page.
• Placeholder transforms now support basic string helpers like .upper(), .title(), and .lower().

Changed

• The API source add page now matches the edit page’s section titles and layout more closely.
• API source placeholder suggestions now stay leaf-only, so container paths and arrays are no longer suggested as placeholders.
• Slide editor and player placeholder resolution now share the same parsing and transform logic.
• API source and RSS editor helper text now shows the new placeholder transform syntax.
• API sources, RSS feeds, slides, users, and roles now render their delete actions in a disabled outlined-danger state when deletion is blocked, matching the rest of the admin tables.
• The users edit page no longer wraps all sections in one outer card, so the profile, password, and roles cards render as separate sections.

Fixed

• API source item-path overrides continue to treat the final path as an array source, while nested object fields remain available for placeholders.
• The API source latest-response panel now opens as a tree view by default instead of a flat JSON blob.

2.1.0 - 2026-07-30

Added

• Screen and dashboard player links now render the full player URL instead of only the player base host.

Changed

• The player registry now uses a singleton d_players row and d_screens.player_id points at that shared player record.
• Player startup is now responsible for creating the shared player record, while onboarding and state polling no longer create extra player rows.
• The screen/player binding path was simplified so opening a screen binds it to the shared player record without trying to re-register the player.
• Added notes near the singleton-player code paths to make the future multi-player migration work easier to revisit.
• Managed fonts now have dedicated editor/player sync handling, including a scheduled font sweep, sorted font-family lists, the TinyMCE fullscreen button, and shared font stylesheet loading in the WYSIWYG editor.
• Text and RSS region types now own their own default style and fallback behavior instead of relying on shared slide helper fallbacks.
• Image and video region handling was also pushed further into modular per-type modules, keeping their editor, preview, and player logic closer to the region itself instead of the shared slide helper layer.

Fixed

• Removed several onboarding and runtime code paths that were still inserting or refreshing d_players rows during normal player playback.
• Fixed the screen-binding flow so it no longer writes a device UUID into d_screens.player_id, which avoided foreign key errors under the shared-player model.

2.0.0 - 2026-07-28

Breaking Changes

• Breaking database schema changes were introduced in this release; existing databases may require migration or recreation before upgrading.

Added

• Broader player and admin release coverage across onboarding, playlist playback, background task handling, and media-region support.

Changed

• Admin and signage views were updated around the newer list, playlist, and RBAC behavior, including playlist scheduling and screen/client actions.
• Player runtime, onboarding, and region rendering were tightened so HTML, image, RSS, RTMP, text, video, and webpage regions follow the newer playback flow.
• Background task, upload sync, and data-source refresh handling were refined across the web app and startup paths.
• Docker, environment, README, and websocket/api documentation were refreshed to match the current release structure.

Fixed

1.5.15 - 2026-07-26

Changed

• Player slide transitions now start and pause video playback around the fade window so video regions stay aligned with the slide boundary.
• Dashboard action cards now use a three-column grid on wider layouts.

Fixed

1.5.12 - 2026-07-26

Changed

• Shared web UI helpers are now loaded once in the admin shell and reused across the dashboard, admin, and template editor.
• Template lists now show slide counts, and the template editor tracks which regions are already in use.

Fixed

• Template editing now blocks removal of regions that are still referenced by slides.

1.5.11 - 2026-07-26

Added

• Video regions are now supported end to end, including player rendering, admin editing, playlist scheduling, and player sync.

Changed

• The slide, template, and playlist flows were updated so video content can be created, configured, and scheduled alongside existing region types.
• Player rendering and related media handling now recognize the new video region implementation.

Fixed

• Region and upload handling were adjusted so video media syncs cleanly through the player and web admin paths.

1.5.10 - 2026-07-26

Added

• Scheduled background tasks now have their own settings page, separate permission gate, and manual run action alongside the main queue view.
• The slide editor now includes a refreshed preview/sidebar layout and a cropper-based image upload flow.

Changed

• Background task and admin list views now use richer pagination and filtering so queue state, task sources, and recurring jobs stay easier to navigate.
• The admin shell and shared styling were refreshed to support the updated settings pages, slide editor layout, and task table presentation.

Fixed

1.5.9 - 2026-07-26

Fixed

• User creation now keeps the role checkboxes inside the add-user form so selected roles are submitted correctly.

1.5.8 - 2026-07-25

1.5.6 - 2026-07-25

Changed

• Playlist slide picker now uses a button to reveal already added slides, while still defaulting to showing only available slides.
• Already-added slides in the picker are now labeled and visually muted to make them easier to spot.
