    new release: v0.7.3: upgrades electron to latest, replacces some FFI libs (now using koffi, which is a beast apparently), and incorporates fixes from core-rs. bookmarker fix as well, although not able to get it running, but oh well.

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (08 Feb 19)

    prepend "http://" to the `config.proxy` setting when pulling the system proxy. this will show up in the interface and allow users to play with the proxy setting themselves.

    verison bump

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (18 Oct 18)

    implmenting a way for the core preloader to get the config from the main thread. detecting and setting the proxy settings into the core config. this is the first step for turtl/tracker#153

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (11 Oct 18)

    dont overwrite loglevel from config file. dont know why i left this in.

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (09 Oct 18)

    desktop version bump!

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (02 Oct 18)

    fixing turtl/tracker#182. turns out i changed the event i needed to fire in order to fake the state the sidebar needs to load.

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (25 Sept 18)

    making sure only one instance of desktop can run, and if another is running it focuses the original window. this is the ui-friendly version of turtl/tracker#177

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (25 Sept 18)

    implement app:quit ui events (so the core can quit if it needs to)

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (25 Sept 18)

    fix for new sidebar code (tsk tsk, using private members)

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (24 Sept 18)

    wix installer: uninstall previous versions (derr)

    retab makefile

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (27 Aug 18)

    add Edit menu in osx. because i am such a NICE GUY. actually because copy/paste keyboard shortcuts seems to be broken. turtl/tracker#139

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (19 Aug 18)

    updating a few of the build directions

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (19 Aug 18)

    detect core load errors and use them to populate the new LoadErrorController interface in the ui, lets us know when something bad happens (although this isnt as important here as it is in android since we can just ctrl+shift+k, but oh well, good to test here first to make sure it all works)

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (09 Aug 18)

    bundle root CA certs with desktop core loader (like android). hopefully fixes turtl/tracker#131

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (08 Aug 18)

    making live config replacement in released version a bit more nuanced (was breaking in linux builds)

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (08 Aug 18)

    fix for turtl/tracker#129 ...needed to include the systems libeay32.dll/ssleay32.dll into the distribution. i thought that they wouldnt be needed because the symbols would be present in electron, but apparently loading the dll separately requires the (triggered) libs to be present. this shouldnt be an issue on linux because even base installs have ssl (although, people tend to surprise me with the essential stuff they have missing on their linux installs).

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (08 Aug 18)

    make sure to electron-rebuild when packaging

  • Andrew Danger Lyon (08 Aug 18)

    fixing linux installer, and also fixing a bug in the general release process that broke the app init (config file problem). this closes turtl/tracker#128 (or at least, it should)
