0.7.0

|

|
**Do this to upgrade**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Update to the latest release. If checked out from git, run:
|
||||||
|
``git fetch && git checkout -q v0.7.0 && git submodule update``
|
||||||
|
2. Make sure to run
|
||||||
|
``./bin/python setup.py develop --upgrade && ./bin/gmg dbupdate``
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
That's it, probably! If you run into problems, don't hesitate to
|
||||||
|
`contact us <http://mediagoblin.org/pages/join.html>`_
|
||||||
|
(IRC is often best).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**New features:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- New mobile upload API making use of the
|
||||||
|
`Pump API <https://github.com/e14n/pump.io/blob/master/API.md>`_
|
||||||
|
(which will be the foundation for MediaGoblin's federation)
|
||||||
|
- New theme: Sandy 70s Speedboat!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Metadata features! We also now have a json-ld context.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Many improvements for archival institutions, including metadata
|
||||||
|
support and featuring items on the homepage. With the (new!)
|
||||||
|
archivalook plugin enabled, featuring media is possible.
|
||||||
|
Additionally, metadata about the particular media item will show up
|
||||||
|
in the sidebar.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In the future these plugins may be separated, but for now they have
|
||||||
|
come together as part of the same plugin.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- There is a new gmg subcommand called batchaddmedia that allows for
|
||||||
|
uploading many files at once. This is aimed to be useful for
|
||||||
|
archival institutions and groups where there is an already existing
|
||||||
|
and large set of available media that needs to be included.
|
||||||
|
- Speaking of, the call to postgres in the makefile is fixed.
|
||||||
|
- We have a new, generic media-page context hook that allows for
|
||||||
|
adding context depending on the type of media.
|
||||||
|
- Tired of video thumbnails breaking during processing all the time?
|
||||||
|
Good news, everyone! Video thumbnail generation should not fail
|
||||||
|
frequently anymore. (We think...)
|
||||||
|
- You can now set default permissions for new users in the config.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- bootstrap.sh / gnu configuration stuff still exists, but moves to be
|
||||||
|
experimental-bootstrap.sh so as to not confuse newcomers. There are
|
||||||
|
some problems currently with the autoconf stuff that we need to work
|
||||||
|
out... we still have interest in supporting it, though help is
|
||||||
|
welcome.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- MediaGoblin now checks whether or not the database is up to date
|
||||||
|
when starting.
|
||||||
|
- Switched to `Skeleton <http://www.getskeleton.com/>`_ as a system for
|
||||||
|
graphic design.
|
||||||
|
- New gmg subcommands for administrators:
|
||||||
|
- A "deletemedia" command
|
||||||
|
- A "deleteuser" command
|
||||||
|
- We now have a blogging media type... it's very experimental,
|
||||||
|
however. Use with caution!
|
||||||
|
- We have switched to exifread as an external library for reading EXIF
|
||||||
|
data. It's basically the same thing as before, but packaged
|
||||||
|
separately from MediaGoblin.
|
||||||
|
- Many improvements to internationalization. Also (still rudimentary,
|
||||||
|
but existant!) RTL language support!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Known issues:**
|
||||||
|
- Webfinger is now json by default; in the spec it should be xml by
|
||||||
|
default. We have done this because of compatibility with the pump
|
||||||
|
API. We are checking with upstream to see if there is a way to
|
||||||
|
resolve this discrepancy.
