Changelog

Version v0.20.0

[!CAUTION] As always we highly recommend keeping backups of your database and stored attachments, however we especially recommend it for this update.

This update modified how attachments are stored, and in addition also change the hashing algorithm used for passwords to Argon2id. While we test our code as much as possible it’s still possible we made a mistake, and any losses may be permanent without a backup.

[!WARNING] If you have a custom data path specified for attachments please read the updated documentation to ensure that attachments still work. Please also note that the --storage-data option has been replaced by --storage-conn-string and --storage-prefix-path.

Please also note that if you wish to switch to one of the new blob storage providers you will need to upload your existing attachments first to the bucket of your choice.

[!IMPORTANT]
We now support thumbnails! Your existing attachments will not automatically be updated to use thumbnails, to generate thumbnails go to the “Tools” section and select the generate thumbnails button.

Please note that the thumbnails are generated in the background and may take some time to complete. Please also note that on ARMv7, x86 and RISC-V processors thumbnail generation may be slow given the lack of native libraries for the decoding of AVIF, WEBP, HEIC, and JPEGXL image types. If you wish to disable thumbnails please refer to our documentation.

[!NOTE]
RISC-V support is a new, experimental build of Homebox, it is provided only as an experiment, there are no guarantees of it’s stability, reliability or performance. Use it at your own risk.
