Changelog
*********
paperless-ng 0.9.8
##################
This release addresses two severe issues with the previous release.
* The delete buttons for document types, correspondents and tags were not working.
* The document section in the admin was causing internal server errors (500).
paperless-ng 0.9.7
##################
* Front end
* Thanks to the hard work of `Michael Shamoon`_, paperless now comes with a much more streamlined UI for
filtering documents.
* `Michael Shamoon`_ replaced the document preview with another component. This should fix compatibility with Safari browsers.
* Added buttons to the management pages to quickly show all documents with one specific tag, correspondent, or title.
* Paperless now stores your saved views on the server and associates them with your user account.
This means that you can access your views on multiple devices and have separate views for different users.
You will have to recreate your views.
* The GitHub and documentation links now open in new tabs/windows. Thanks to `rYR79435`_.
* Paperless now generates default saved view names when saving views with certain filter rules.
* Added a small version indicator to the front end.
* Other additions and changes
* The new filename format field ``{tag_list}`` inserts a list of tags into the filename, separated by comma.
* The ``document_retagger`` no longer removes inbox tags or tags without matching rules.
* The new configuration option ``PAPERLESS_COOKIE_PREFIX`` allows you to run multiple instances of paperless on different ports.
This option enables you to be logged in into multiple instances by specifying different cookie names for each instance.
* Fixes
* Sometimes paperless would assign dates in the future to newly consumed documents.
* The filename format fields ``{created_month}`` and ``{created_day}`` now use a leading zero for single digit values.
* The filename format field ``{tags}`` can no longer be used without arguments.
* Paperless was not able to consume many images (especially images from mobile scanners) due to missing DPI information.
Paperless now assumes A4 paper size for PDF generation if no DPI information is present.
* Documents with empty titles could not be opened from the table view due to the link being empty.
* Fixed an issue with filenames containing special characters such as ``:`` not being accepted for upload.
* Fixed issues with thumbnail generation for plain text files.
paperless-ng 0.9.6
##################
This release focusses primarily on many small issues with the UI.
* Front end
* Paperless now has proper window titles.
* Fixed an issue with the small cards when more than 7 tags were used.
* Navigation of the "Show all" links adjusted. They navigate to the saved view now, if available in the sidebar.
* Some indication on the document lists that a filter is active was added.
* There's a new filter to filter for documents that do *not* have a certain tag.
* The file upload box now shows upload progress.
* The document edit page was reorganized.
* The document edit page shows various information about a document.
* An issue with the height of the preview was fixed.
* Table issues with too long document titles fixed.
* API
* The API now serves file names with documents.
* The API now serves various metadata about documents.
* API documentation updated.
* Other
* Fixed an issue with the docker image when a non-standard PostgreSQL port was used.
* The docker image was trying check for installed languages before actually installing them.
* ``FILENAME_FORMAT`` placeholder for document types.
* The filename formatter is now less restrictive with file names and tries to
conserve the original correspondents, types and titles as much as possible.
* The filename formatter does not include the document ID in filenames anymore. It will
rather append ``_01``, ``_02``, etc when it detects duplicate filenames.
.. note::
The changes to the filename format will apply to newly added documents and changed documents.
If you want all files to reflect these changes, execute the ``document_renamer`` management
command.
paperless-ng 0.9.5
##################
This release concludes the big changes I wanted to get rolled into paperless. The next releases before 1.0 will
focus on fixing issues, primarily.
* OCR
* Paperless now uses `OCRmyPDF <https://github.com/jbarlow83/OCRmyPDF>`_ to perform OCR on documents.
It still uses tesseract under the hood, but the PDF parser of Paperless has changed considerably and
will behave different for some douments.
* OCRmyPDF creates archived PDF/A documents with embedded text that can be selected in the front end.
* Paperless stores archived versions of documents alongside with the originals. The originals can be
accessed on the document edit page. If available, a dropdown menu will appear next to the download button.
* Many of the configuration options regarding OCR have changed. See :ref:`configuration-ocr` for details.
* Paperless no longer guesses the language of your documents. It always uses the language that you
specified with ``PAPERLESS_OCR_LANGUAGE``. Be sure to set this to the language the majority of your
documents are in. Multiple languages can be specified, but that requires more CPU time.
* The management command :ref:`document_archiver <utilities-archiver>` can be used to create archived versions for already
existing documents.
* Tags from consumption folder.
* Thanks to `jayme-github`_, paperless now consumes files from sub folders in the consumption folder and is able to assign tags
based on the sub folders a document was found in. This can be configured with ``PAPERLESS_CONSUMER_RECURSIVE`` and
``PAPERLESS_CONSUMER_SUBDIRS_AS_TAGS``.
* API
* The API now offers token authentication.
* The endpoint for uploading documents now supports specifying custom titles, correspondents, tags and types.
This can be used by clients to override the default behavior of paperless. See :ref:`api-file_uploads`.
* The document endpoint of API now serves documents in this form:
* correspondents, document types and tags are referenced by their ID in the fields ``correspondent``, ``document_type`` and ``tags``. The ``*_id`` versions are gone. These fields are read/write.
* paperless does not serve nested tags, correspondents or types anymore.
* Front end
* Paperless does some basic caching of correspondents, tags and types and will only request them from the server when necessary or when entirely reloading the page.
* Document list fetching is about 10%-30% faster now, especially when lots of tags/correspondents are present.
* Some minor improvements to the front end, such as document count in the document list, better highlighting of the current page, and improvements to the filter behavior.
* Fixes:
* A bug with the generation of filenames for files with unsupported types caused the exporter and
document saving to crash.
* Mail handling no longer exits entirely when encountering errors. It will skip the account/rule/message on which the error occured.
* Assigning correspondents from mail sender names failed for very long names. Paperless no longer assigns correspondents in these cases.
paperless-ng 0.9.4
##################
* Searching:
* Paperless now supports searching by tags, types and dates and correspondents. In order to have this applied to your
existing documents, you need to perform a ``document_index reindex`` management command
(see :ref:`administration-index`)
that adds the data to the search index. You only need to do this once, since the schema of the search index changed.
Paperless keeps the index updated after that whenever something changes.
* Paperless now has spelling corrections ("Did you mean") for miss-typed queries.
* The documentation contains :ref:`information about the query syntax <basic-searching>`.
* Front end:
* Clickable tags, correspondents and types allow quick filtering for related documents.
* Saved views are now editable.
* Preview documents directly in the browser.
* Navigation from the dashboard to saved views.
* Fixes:
* A severe error when trying to use post consume scripts.
* An error in the consumer that cause invalid messages of missing files to show up in the log.
* The documentation now contains information about bare metal installs and a section about
how to setup the development environment.
paperless-ng 0.9.3
##################
* Setting ``PAPERLESS_AUTO_LOGIN_USERNAME`` replaces ``PAPERLESS_DISABLE_LOGIN``.
You have to specify your username.
* Added a simple sanity checker that checks your documents for missing or orphaned files,
files with wrong checksums, inaccessible files, and documents with empty content.
* It is no longer possible to encrypt your documents. For the time being, paperless will
continue to operate with already encrypted documents.
* Fixes:
* Paperless now uses inotify again, since the watchdog was causing issues which I was not
aware of.
* Issue with the automatic classifier not working with only one tag.
* A couple issues with the search index being opened to eagerly.
* Added lots of tests for various parts of the application.
paperless-ng 0.9.2
##################
* Major changes to the front end (colors, logo, shadows, layout of the cards,
better mobile support)
* Paperless now uses mime types and libmagic detection to determine
if a file type is supported and which parser to use. Removes all
file type checks that where present in MANY different places in
paperless.
* Mail consumer now correctly consumes documents even when their
content type was not set correctly. (i.e. PDF documents with
content type ``application/octet-stream``)
* Basic sorting of mail rules added
* Much better admin for mail rule editing.
* Docker entrypoint script awaits the database server if it is
configured.
* Disabled editing of logs.
* New setting ``PAPERLESS_OCR_PAGES`` limits the tesseract parser
to the first n pages of scanned documents.
* Fixed a bug where tasks with too long task names would not show
up in the admin.
paperless-ng 0.9.1
##################
* Moved documentation of the settings to the actual documentation.
* Updated release script to force the user to choose between SQLite
and PostgreSQL. This avoids confusion when upgrading from paperless.
paperless-ng 0.9.0
##################
* **Deprecated:** GnuPG. :ref:`See this note on the state of GnuPG in paperless-ng. <utilities-encyption>`
This features will most likely be removed in future versions.
* **Added:** New frontend. Features:
* Single page application: It's much more responsive than the django admin pages.
* Dashboard. Shows recently scanned documents, or todo notes, or other documents
at wish. Allows uploading of documents. Shows basic statistics.
* Better document list with multiple display options.
* Full text search with result highlighting, auto completion and scoring based
on the query. It uses a document search index in the background.
* Saveable filters.
* Better log viewer.
* **Added:** Document types. Assign these to documents just as correspondents.
They may be used in the future to perform automatic operations on documents
depending on the type.
* **Added:** Inbox tags. Define an inbox tag and it will automatically be
assigned to any new document scanned into the system.
* **Added:** Automatic matching. A new matching algorithm that automatically
assigns tags, document types and correspondents to your documents. It uses
a neural network trained on your data.
* **Added:** Archive serial numbers. Assign these to quickly find documents stored in
physical binders.
* **Added:** Enabled the internal user management of django. This isn't really a
multi user solution, however, it allows more than one user to access the website
and set some basic permissions / renew passwords.
* **Modified [breaking]:** All new mail consumer with customizable filters, actions and
multiple account support. Replaces the old mail consumer. The new mail consumer
needs different configuration but can be configured to act exactly like the old
consumer.
* **Modified:** Changes to the consumer:
* Now uses the excellent watchdog library that should make sure files are
discovered no matter what the platform is.
* The consumer now uses a task scheduler to run consumption processes in parallel.
This means that consuming many documents should be much faster on systems with
many cores.
* Concurrency is controlled with the new settings ``PAPERLESS_TASK_WORKERS``
and ``PAPERLESS_THREADS_PER_WORKER``. See TODO for details on concurrency.
* The consumer no longer blocks the database for extended periods of time.
* An issue with tesseract running multiple threads per page and slowing down
the consumer was fixed.
* **Modified [breaking]:** REST Api changes:
* New filters added, other filters removed (case sensitive filters, slug filters)
* Endpoints for thumbnails, previews and downloads replace the old ``/fetch/`` urls. Redirects are in place.
* Endpoint for document uploads replaces the old ``/push`` url. Redirects are in place.
* Foreign key relationships are now served as IDs, not as urls.
* **Modified [breaking]:** PostgreSQL:
* If ``PAPERLESS_DBHOST`` is specified in the settings, paperless uses PostgreSQL instead of SQLite.
Username, database and password all default to ``paperless`` if not specified.
* **Modified [breaking]:** document_retagger management command rework. See
:ref:`utilities-retagger` for details. Replaces ``document_correspondents``
management command.
* **Removed [breaking]:** Reminders.
* **Removed:** All customizations made to the django admin pages.
* **Removed [breaking]:** The docker image no longer supports SSL. If you want to expose
paperless to the internet, hide paperless behind a proxy server that handles SSL
requests.
* **Internal changes:** Mostly code cleanup, including:
* Rework of the code of the tesseract parser. This is now a lot cleaner.
* Rework of the filename handling code. It was a mess.
* Fixed some issues with the document exporter not exporting all documents when encountering duplicate filenames.
* Added a task scheduler that takes care of checking mail, training the classifier, maintaining the document search index
and consuming documents.
* Updated dependencies. Now uses Pipenv all around.
* Updated Dockerfile and docker-compose. Now uses ``supervisord`` to run everything paperless-related in a single container.
* **Settings:**
* ``PAPERLESS_FORGIVING_OCR`` is now default and gone. Reason: Even if ``langdetect`` fails to detect
a language, tesseract still does a very good job at ocr'ing a document with the default language.
Certain language specifics such as umlauts may not get picked up properly.
* ``PAPERLESS_DEBUG`` defaults to ``false``.
* The presence of ``PAPERLESS_DBHOST`` now determines whether to use PostgreSQL or
SQLite.
* ``PAPERLESS_OCR_THREADS`` is gone and replaced with ``PAPERLESS_TASK_WORKERS`` and
``PAPERLESS_THREADS_PER_WORKER``. Refer to the config example for details.
* ``PAPERLESS_OPTIMIZE_THUMBNAILS`` allows you to disable or enable thumbnail
optimization. This is useful on less powerful devices.
* Many more small changes here and there. The usual stuff.
Paperless
#########
2.7.0
=====
* `syntonym`_ submitted a pull request to catch IMAP connection errors `#475`_.
* `Stéphane Brunner`_ added ``psycopg2`` to the Pipfile `#489`_. He also fixed
a syntax error in ``docker-compose.yml.example`` `#488`_ and added `DjangoQL`_,
which allows a litany of handy search functionality `#492`_.
* `CkuT`_ and `JOKer`_ hacked out a simple, but super-helpful optimisation to
how the thumbnails are served up, improving performance considerably `#481`_.
* `tsia`_ added a few fields to the tags REST API. `#483`_.
* `Brian Cribbs`_ improved the documentation to help people using Paperless
over NFS `#484`_.
* `Brendan M. Sleight`_ updated the documentation to include a note for setting the
``DEBUG`` value. The ``paperless.conf.example`` file was also updated to
mirror the project defaults.
2.6.1
=====
* We now have a logo, complete with a favicon :-)
* Removed some problematic tests.
* Fix the docker-compose example config to include a shared consume volume so
that using the push API will work for users of the Docker install. Thanks to
`Colin Frei`_ for fixing this in `#466`_.
* `khrise`_ submitted a pull request to include the ``added`` property to the
REST API `#471`_.
2.6.0
=====
* Allow an infinite number of logs to be deleted. Thanks to `Ulli`_ for noting
the problem in `#433`_.
* Fix the ``RecentCorrespondentsFilter`` correspondents filter that was added
in 2.4 to play nice with the defaults. Thanks to `tsia`_ and `Sblop`_ who
pointed this out. `#423`_.
* Updated dependencies to include (among other things) a security patch to
requests.
* Fix text in sample data for tests so that the language guesser stops thinking
that everything is in Catalan because we had *Lorem ipsum* in there.
* Tweaked the gunicorn sample command to use filesystem paths instead of Python
paths. `#441`_
* Added pretty colour boxes next to the hex values in the Tags section, thanks
to a pull request from `Joshua Taillon`_ `#442`_.
* Added a ``.editorconfig`` file to better specify coding style.
* `Joshua Taillon`_ also added some logic to tie Paperless' date guessing logic
into how it parses file names on import. `#440`_
2.5.0
=====
* **New dependency**: Paperless now optimises thumbnail generation with
`optipng`_, so you'll need to install that somewhere in your PATH or declare
its location in ``PAPERLESS_OPTIPNG_BINARY``. The Docker image has already
been updated on the Docker Hub, so you just need to pull the latest one from
there if you're a Docker user.
* "Login free" instances of Paperless were breaking whenever you tried to edit
objects in the admin: adding/deleting tags or correspondents, or even fixing
spelling. This was due to the "user hack" we were applying to sessions that
weren't using a login, as that hack user didn't have a valid id. The fix was
to attribute the first user id in the system to this hack user. `#394`_
* A problem in how we handle slug values on Tags and Correspondents required a
few changes to how we handle this field `#393`_:
1. Slugs are no longer editable. They're derived from the name of the tag or
correspondent at save time, so if you wanna change the slug, you have to
change the name, and even then you're restricted to the rules of the
``slugify()`` function. The slug value is still visible in the admin
though.
2. I've added a migration to go over all existing tags & correspondents and
rewrite the ``.slug`` values to ones conforming to the ``slugify()``
rules.
3. The consumption process now uses the same rules as ``.save()`` in
determining a slug and using that to check for an existing
tag/correspondent.
* An annoying bug in the date capture code was causing some bogus dates to be
attached to documents, which in turn busted the UI. Thanks to `Andrew Peng`_
for reporting this. `#414`_.
* A bug in the Dockerfile meant that Tesseract language files weren't being
installed correctly. `euri10`_ was quick to provide a fix: `#406`_, `#413`_.
* Document consumption is now wrapped in a transaction as per an old ticket
`#262`_.
* The ``get_date()`` functionality of the parsers has been consolidated onto
the ``DocumentParser`` class since much of that code was redundant anyway.
2.4.0
=====
* A new set of actions are now available thanks to `jonaswinkler`_'s very first
pull request! You can now do nifty things like tag documents in bulk, or set
correspondents in bulk. `#405`_
* The import/export system is now a little smarter. By default, documents are
tagged as ``unencrypted``, since exports are by their nature unencrypted.
It's now in the import step that we decide the storage type. This allows you
to export from an encrypted system and import into an unencrypted one, or
vice-versa.
* The migration history has been slightly modified to accommodate PostgreSQL
users. Additionally, you can now tell paperless to use PostgreSQL simply by
declaring ``PAPERLESS_DBUSER`` in your environment. This will attempt to
connect to your Postgres database without a password unless you also set
``PAPERLESS_DBPASS``.
* A bug was found in the REST API filter system that was the result of an
update of django-filter some time ago. This has now been patched in `#412`_.
Thanks to `thepill`_ for spotting it!
2.3.0
=====
* Support for consuming plain text & markdown documents was added by
`Joshua Taillon`_! This was a long-requested feature, and it's addition is
likely to be greatly appreciated by the community: `#395`_ Thanks also to
`David Martin`_ for his assistance on the issue.
* `dubit0`_ found & fixed a bug that prevented management commands from running
before we had an operational database: `#396`_
* Joshua also added a simple update to the thumbnail generation process to
improve performance: `#399`_
* As his last bit of effort on this release, Joshua also added some code to
allow you to view the documents inline rather than download them as an
attachment. `#400`_
* Finally, `ahyear`_ found a slip in the Docker documentation and patched it.
`#401`_
2.2.1
=====
* `Kyle Lucy`_ reported a bug quickly after the release of 2.2.0 where we broke
the ``DISABLE_LOGIN`` feature: `#392`_.
2.2.0
=====
* Thanks to `dadosch`_, `Wolfgang Mader`_, and `Tim Brooks`_ this is the first
version of Paperless that supports Django 2.0! As a result of their hard
work, you can now also run Paperless on Python 3.7 as well: `#386`_ &
`#390`_.
* `Stéphane Brunner`_ added a few lines of code that made tagging interface a
lot easier on those of us with lots of different tags: `#391`_.
* `Kilian Koeltzsch`_ noticed a bug in how we capture & automatically create
tags, so that's fixed now too: `#384`_.
* `erikarvstedt`_ tweaked the behaviour of the test suite to be better behaved
for packaging environments: `#383`_.
* `Lukasz Soluch`_ added CORS support to make building a new Javascript-based
front-end cleaner & easier: `#387`_.
2.1.0
=====
* `Enno Lohmeier`_ added three simple features that make Paperless a lot more
user (and developer) friendly:
1. There's a new search box on the front page: `#374`_.
2. The correspondents & tags pages now have a column showing the number of
relevant documents: `#375`_.
3. The Dockerfile has been tweaked to build faster for those of us who are
doing active development on Paperless using the Docker environment:
`#376`_.
* You now also have the ability to customise the interface to your heart's
content by creating a file called ``overrides.css`` and/or ``overrides.js``
in the root of your media directory. Thanks to `Mark McFate`_ for this
idea: `#371`_
2.0.0
=====
This is a big release as we've changed a core-functionality of Paperless: we no
longer encrypt files with GPG by default.
The reasons for this are many, but it boils down to that the encryption wasn't
really all that useful, as files on-disk were still accessible so long as you
had the key, and the key was most typically stored in the config file. In
other words, your files are only as safe as the ``paperless`` user is. In
addition to that, *the contents of the documents were never encrypted*, so
important numbers etc. were always accessible simply by querying the database.
Still, it was better than nothing, but the consensus from users appears to be
that it was more an annoyance than anything else, so this feature is now turned
off unless you explicitly set a passphrase in your config file.
Migrating from 1.x
==================
Encryption isn't gone, it's just off for new users. So long as you have
``PAPERLESS_PASSPHRASE`` set in your config or your environment, Paperless
should continue to operate as it always has. If however, you want to drop
encryption too, you only need to do two things:
1. Run ``./manage.py migrate && ./manage.py change_storage_type gpg unencrypted``.
This will go through your entire database and Decrypt All The Things.
2. Remove ``PAPERLESS_PASSPHRASE`` from your ``paperless.conf`` file, or simply
stop declaring it in your environment.
Special thanks to `erikarvstedt`_, `matthewmoto`_, and `mcronce`_ who did the
bulk of the work on this big change.
1.4.0
=====
* `Quentin Dawans`_ has refactored the document consumer to allow for some
command-line options. Notably, you can now direct it to consume from a
particular ``--directory``, limit the ``--loop-time``, set the time between
mail server checks with ``--mail-delta`` or just run it as a one-off with
``--one-shot``. See `#305`_ & `#313`_ for more information.
* Refactor the use of travis/tox/pytest/coverage into two files:
``.travis.yml`` and ``setup.cfg``.
* Start generating requirements.txt from a Pipfile. I'll probably switch over
to just using pipenv in the future.
* All for a alternative FreeBSD-friendly location for ``paperless.conf``.
Thanks to `Martin Arendtsen`_ who provided this (`#322`_).
* Document consumption events are now logged in the Django admin events log.
Thanks to `CkuT`_ for doing the legwork on this one and to `Quentin Dawans`_
& `David Martin`_ for helping to coordinate & work out how the feature would
be developed.
* `erikarvstedt`_ contributed a pull request (`#328`_) to add ``--noreload``
to the default server start process. This helps reduce the load imposed
by the running webservice.
* Through some discussion on `#253`_ and `#323`_, we've removed a few of the
hardcoded URL values to make it easier for people to host Paperless on a
subdirectory. Thanks to `Quentin Dawans`_ and `Kyle Lucy`_ for helping to
work this out.
* The clickable area for documents on the listing page has been increased to a
more predictable space thanks to a glorious hack from `erikarvstedt`_ in
`#344`_.
* `Strubbl`_ noticed an annoying bug in the bash script wrapping the Docker
entrypoint and fixed it with some very creating Bash skills: `#352`_.
* You can now use the search field to find documents by tag thanks to
`thinkjk`_'s *first ever issue*: `#354`_.
* Inotify is now being used to detect additions to the consume directory thanks
to some excellent work from `erikarvstedt`_ on `#351`_
1.3.0
=====
* You can now run Paperless without a login, though you'll still have to create
at least one user. This is thanks to a pull-request from `matthewmoto`_:
`#295`_. Note that logins are still required by default, and that you need
to disable them by setting ``PAPERLESS_DISABLE_LOGIN="true"`` in your
environment or in ``/etc/paperless.conf``.
* Fix for `#303`_ where sketchily-formatted documents could cause the consumer
to break and insert half-records into the database breaking all sorts of
things. We now capture the return codes of both ``convert`` and ``unpaper``
and fail-out nicely.
* Fix for additional date types thanks to input from `Isaac`_ and code from
`BastianPoe`_ (`#301`_).
* Fix for running migrations in the Docker container (`#299`_). Thanks to
`Georgi Todorov`_ for the fix (`#300`_) and to `Pit`_ for the review.
* Fix for Docker cases where the issuing user is not UID 1000. This was a
collaborative fix between `Jeffrey Portman`_ and `Pit`_ in `#311`_ and
`#312`_ to fix `#306`_.
* Patch the historical migrations to support MySQL's um, *interesting* way of
handing indexes (`#308`_). Thanks to `Simon Taddiken`_ for reporting the
problem and helping me find where to fix it.
1.2.0
=====
* New Docker image, now based on Alpine, thanks to the efforts of `addadi`_
and `Pit`_. This new image is dramatically smaller than the Debian-based
one, and it also has `a new home on Docker Hub`_. A proper thank-you to
`Pit`_ for hosting the image on his Docker account all this time, but after
some discussion, we decided the image needed a more *official-looking* home.
* `BastianPoe`_ has added the long-awaited feature to automatically skip the
OCR step when the PDF already contains text. This can be overridden by
setting ``PAPERLESS_OCR_ALWAYS=YES`` either in your ``paperless.conf`` or
in the environment. Note that this also means that Paperless now requires
``libpoppler-cpp-dev`` to be installed. **Important**: You'll need to run
``pip install -r requirements.txt`` after the usual ``git pull`` to
properly update.
* `BastianPoe`_ has also contributed a monumental amount of work (`#291`_) to
solving `#158`_: setting the document creation date based on finding a date
in the document text.
1.1.0
=====
* Fix for `#283`_, a redirect bug which broke interactions with
paperless-desktop. Thanks to `chris-aeviator`_ for reporting it.
* Addition of an optional new financial year filter, courtesy of
`David Martin`_ `#256`_
* Fixed a typo in how thumbnails were named in exports `#285`_, courtesy of
`Dan Panzarella`_
1.0.0
=====
* Upgrade to Django 1.11. **You'll need to run
``pip install -r requirements.txt`` after the usual ``git pull`` to
properly update**.
* Replace the templatetag-based hack we had for document listing in favour of
a slightly less ugly solution in the form of another template tag with less
copypasta.
* Support for multi-word-matches for auto-tagging thanks to an excellent
patch from `ishirav`_ `#277`_.
* Fixed a CSS bug reported by `Stefan Hagen`_ that caused an overlapping of
the text and checkboxes under some resolutions `#272`_.
* Patched the Docker config to force the serving of static files. Credit for
this one goes to `dev-rke`_ via `#248`_.
* Fix file permissions during Docker start up thanks to `Pit`_ on `#268`_.
* Date fields in the admin are now expressed as HTML5 date fields thanks to
`Lukas Winkler`_'s issue `#278`_
0.8.0
=====
* Paperless can now run in a subdirectory on a host (``/paperless``), rather
than always running in the root (``/``) thanks to `maphy-psd`_'s work on
`#255`_.
0.7.0
=====
* **Potentially breaking change**: As per `#235`_, Paperless will no longer
automatically delete documents attached to correspondents when those
correspondents are themselves deleted. This was Django's default
behaviour, but didn't make much sense in Paperless' case. Thanks to
`Thomas Brueggemann`_ and `David Martin`_ for their input on this one.
* Fix for `#232`_ wherein Paperless wasn't recognising ``.tif`` files
properly. Thanks to `ayounggun`_ for reporting this one and to
`Kusti Skytén`_ for posting the correct solution in the Github issue.
0.6.0
=====
* Abandon the shared-secret trick we were using for the POST API in favour
of BasicAuth or Django session.
* Fix the POST API so it actually works. `#236`_
* **Breaking change**: We've dropped the use of ``PAPERLESS_SHARED_SECRET``
as it was being used both for the API (now replaced with a normal auth)
and form email polling. Now that we're only using it for email, this
variable has been renamed to ``PAPERLESS_EMAIL_SECRET``. The old value
will still work for a while, but you should change your config if you've
been using the email polling feature. Thanks to `Joshua Gilman`_ for all
the help with this feature.
0.5.0
=====
* Support for fuzzy matching in the auto-tagger & auto-correspondent systems
thanks to `Jake Gysland`_'s patch `#220`_.
* Modified the Dockerfile to prepare an export directory (`#212`_). Thanks
to combined efforts from `Pit`_ and `Strubbl`_ in working out the kinks on
this one.
* Updated the import/export scripts to include support for thumbnails. Big
thanks to `CkuT`_ for finding this shortcoming and doing the work to get
it fixed in `#224`_.
* All of the following changes are thanks to `David Martin`_:
* Bumped the dependency on pyocr to 0.4.7 so new users can make use of
Tesseract 4 if they so prefer (`#226`_).
* Fixed a number of issues with the automated mail handler (`#227`_, `#228`_)
* Amended the documentation for better handling of systemd service files (`#229`_)
* Amended the Django Admin configuration to have nice headers (`#230`_)
0.4.1
=====
* Fix for `#206`_ wherein the pluggable parser didn't recognise files with
all-caps suffixes like ``.PDF``
0.4.0
=====
* Introducing reminders. See `#199`_ for more information, but the short
explanation is that you can now attach simple notes & times to documents
which are made available via the API. Currently, the default API
(basically just the Django admin) doesn't really make use of this, but
`Thomas Brueggemann`_ over at `Paperless Desktop`_ has said that he would
like to make use of this feature in his project.
0.3.6
=====
* Fix for `#200`_ (!!) where the API wasn't configured to allow updating the
correspondent or the tags for a document.
* The ``content`` field is now optional, to allow for the edge case of a
purely graphical document.
* You can no longer add documents via the admin. This never worked in the
first place, so all I've done here is remove the link to the broken form.
* The consumer code has been heavily refactored to support a pluggable
interface. Install a paperless consumer via pip and tell paperless about
it with an environment variable, and you're good to go. Proper
documentation is on its way.
0.3.5
=====
* A serious facelift for the documents listing page wherein we drop the
tabular layout in favour of a tiled interface.
* Users can now configure the number of items per page.
* Fix for `#171`_: Allow users to specify their own ``SECRET_KEY`` value.
* Moved the dotenv loading to the top of settings.py
* Fix for `#112`_: Added checks for binaries required for document
consumption.
0.3.4
=====
* Removal of django-suit due to a licensing conflict I bumped into in 0.3.3.
Note that you *can* use Django Suit with Paperless, but only in a
non-profit situation as their free license prohibits for-profit use. As a
result, I can't bundle Suit with Paperless without conflicting with the
GPL. Further development will be done against the stock Django admin.
* I shrunk the thumbnails a little 'cause they were too big for me, even on
my high-DPI monitor.
* BasicAuth support for document and thumbnail downloads, as well as the Push
API thanks to @thomasbrueggemann. See `#179`_.
0.3.3
=====
* Thumbnails in the UI and a Django-suit -based face-lift courtesy of @ekw!
* Timezone, items per page, and default language are now all configurable,
also thanks to @ekw.
0.3.2
=====
* Fix for `#172`_: defaulting ALLOWED_HOSTS to ``["*"]`` and allowing the
user to set her own value via ``PAPERLESS_ALLOWED_HOSTS`` should the need
arise.
0.3.1
=====
* Added a default value for ``CONVERT_BINARY``
0.3.0
=====
* Updated to using django-filter 1.x
* Added some system checks so new users aren't confused by misconfigurations.
* Consumer loop time is now configurable for systems with slow writes. Just
set ``PAPERLESS_CONSUMER_LOOP_TIME`` to a number of seconds. The default
is 10.
* As per `#44`_, we've removed support for ``PAPERLESS_CONVERT``,
``PAPERLESS_CONSUME``, and ``PAPERLESS_SECRET``. Please use
``PAPERLESS_CONVERT_BINARY``, ``PAPERLESS_CONSUMPTION_DIR``, and
``PAPERLESS_SHARED_SECRET`` respectively instead.
0.2.0
=====
* `#150`_: The media root is now a variable you can set in
``paperless.conf``.
* `#148`_: The database location (sqlite) is now a variable you can set in
``paperless.conf``.
* `#146`_: Fixed a bug that allowed unauthorised access to the ``/fetch``
URL.
* `#131`_: Document files are now automatically removed from disk when
they're deleted in Paperless.
* `#121`_: Fixed a bug where Paperless wasn't setting document creation time
based on the file naming scheme.
* `#81`_: Added a hook to run an arbitrary script after every document is
consumed.
* `#98`_: Added optional environment variables for ImageMagick so that it
doesn't explode when handling Very Large Documents or when it's just
running on a low-memory system. Thanks to `Florian Harr`_ for his help on
this one.
* `#89`_ Ported the auto-tagging code to correspondents as well. Thanks to
`Justin Snyman`_ for the pointers in the issue queue.
* Added support for guessing the date from the file name along with the
correspondent, title, and tags. Thanks to `Tikitu de Jager`_ for his pull
request that I took forever to merge and to `Pit`_ for his efforts on the
regex front.
* `#94`_: Restored support for changing the created date in the UI. Thanks
to `Martin Honermeyer`_ and `Tim White`_ for working with me on this.
0.1.1
=====
* Potentially **Breaking Change**: All references to "sender" in the code
have been renamed to "correspondent" to better reflect the nature of the
property (one could quite reasonably scan a document before sending it to
someone.)
* `#67`_: Rewrote the document exporter and added a new importer that allows
for full metadata retention without depending on the file name and
modification time. A big thanks to `Tikitu de Jager`_, `Pit`_,
`Florian Jung`_, and `Christopher Luu`_ for their code snippets and
contributing conversation that lead to this change.
* `#20`_: Added *unpaper* support to help in cleaning up the scanned image
before it's OCR'd. Thanks to `Pit`_ for this one.
* `#71`_ Added (encrypted) thumbnails in anticipation of a proper UI.
* `#68`_: Added support for using a proper config file at
``/etc/paperless.conf`` and modified the systemd unit files to use it.
* Refactored the Vagrant installation process to use environment variables
rather than asking the user to modify ``settings.py``.
* `#44`_: Harmonise environment variable names with constant names.
* `#60`_: Setup logging to actually use the Python native logging framework.
* `#53`_: Fixed an annoying bug that caused ``.jpeg`` and ``.JPG`` images
to be imported but made unavailable.
0.1.0
=====
* Docker support! Big thanks to `Wayne Werner`_, `Brian Conn`_, and
`Tikitu de Jager`_ for this one, and especially to `Pit`_
who spearheadded this effort.
* A simple REST API is in place, but it should be considered unstable.
* Cleaned up the consumer to use temporary directories instead of a single
scratch space. (Thanks `Pit`_)
* Improved the efficiency of the consumer by parsing pages more intelligently
and introducing a threaded OCR process (thanks again `Pit`_).
* `#45`_: Cleaned up the logic for tag matching. Reported by `darkmatter`_.
* `#47`_: Auto-rotate landscape documents. Reported by `Paul`_ and fixed by
`Pit`_.
* `#48`_: Matching algorithms should do so on a word boundary (`darkmatter`_)
* `#54`_: Documented the re-tagger (`zedster`_)
* `#57`_: Make sure file is preserved on import failure (`darkmatter`_)
* Added tox with pep8 checking
0.0.6
=====
* Added support for parallel OCR (significant work from `Pit`_)
* Sped up the language detection (significant work from `Pit`_)
* Added simple logging
0.0.5
=====
* Added support for image files as documents (png, jpg, gif, tiff)
* Added a crude means of HTTP POST for document imports
* Added IMAP mail support
* Added a re-tagging utility
* Documentation for the above as well as data migration
0.0.4
=====
* Added automated tagging basted on keyword matching
* Cleaned up the document listing page
* Removed ``User`` and ``Group`` from the admin
* Added ``pytz`` to the list of requirements
0.0.3
=====
* Added basic tagging
0.0.2
=====
* Added language detection
* Added datestamps to ``document_exporter``.
* Changed ``settings.TESSERACT_LANGUAGE`` to ``settings.OCR_LANGUAGE``.
0.0.1
