dl 0.18: 2017-09-04
-------------------
Major new features:
* Support for multiple file uploads in both tickets and grants. When multiple
files are attached, a Zip archive is automatically created with the contents.
The PHP "Zip" extension is now required.
* Grants are now reusable. With the new defaults, senders are no longer
restricted to a single use/file per grant, but can keep reusing the same link
as needed. The grant, just like a ticket, is then automatically expired when
left unused for a certain amount of time.
* Tickets generated while using a grant are now split into a separated
"Received files" page. The "All tickets" page reserved to administrators
still shows all tickets combined and color-coded.
* A new Android client is now available: ``PokéDL``.
Enhancements:
* The ticket and grant expiration parameters have been streamlined for common
usage patterns, becoming mostly self-explanatory.
* When using a grant, the user can now attach a comment alongside the uploaded
file/s. The comment is sent back to the grant owner in the notification.
* Tickets now show the generating grant ID in the edit/detailed view.
* The grant comment assigned during creation is now shown in both the tooltip
of the grant list and in email notifications involving grant usage.
* Ticket/grant passwords were previously always included in notifications. The
password sending policy can now be controlled at creation time, and defaults
to sending the password only when automatically generated.
* The subject prefix in email notifications can now be customized.
* ``dl-wx`` now allows to generate grants.
* General ``dl-cli`` overhaul:
- dl-cli now runs under both python 3 and python 2.7, preferring python 3
- The password can be read from an external command using ``passcmd``
- Public-key pinning is now supported through the ``fingerprint`` option
- Multiple files can now be uploaded in a single ticket (for efficiency,
dl-cli generates a Zip archive locally before uploading)
- When generating a grant, the email address is now optional if available
in the configuration file
- The ConfigObj module is now required
Bug fixes:
* Tickets generated while using a grant were incorrectly calculating the expiry
from the grant *creation* time, resulting in premature expiration. Ticket
expiry is now calculated starting at actual *upload* time.
* Download of files larger than 2GB would previously fail when using DL with
MySQL or Postgres. Fix by Daniel Berteaud.
* Ticket and grant invalid access or invalid password attempts are now logged.
* Left-clicking on the ``dl-wx`` tray's icon on Linux now works as expected.
Other changes:
* The minimum required PHP version has been raised to 5.5 or higher.
* Important PHP settings are now preset in the bundled ``htdocs/.htaccess``
file for the Apache/mod_php combination.
* Simplified Chinese translation by Guangyu Dong.
* Russian translation by Олейник О.В.
* The Thunderbird add-on has been updated to support Thunderbird 52.
* The Windows ``dl-wx`` executable has been rebuilt with SNI support.
