0.21.3

⚠️ Important announcement ⚠️

A few days ago @lonvia, maintainer of https://photon.komoot.io, the reverse-geocoding API service that Dawarich is using by default, reached me to highlight a problem: Dawarich makes too many requests to https://photon.komoot.io, even with recently introduced rate-limiting to prevent more than 1 request per second.

Photon is a great service and Dawarich wouldn't be what it is now without it, but I have to ask all Dawarich users that are running it on their hardware to either switch to a Photon instance hosted by me (@Freika) or strongly consider hosting their own Photon instance. Thanks to @rtuszik, it's pretty much docker compose up -d. The documentation on the website will be soon updated to also encourage setting up your own Photon instance. More reverse geocoding options will be added in the future.

Let's decrease load on https://photon.komoot.io together!

Thank you.

⚠️ This release introduces a breaking change. ⚠️

The dawarich_db service now uses a custom postgresql.conf file.

As @tabacha pointed out in #549, the default shm_size for the dawarich_db service is too small and it may lead to database performance issues. This release introduces a shm_size parameter to the dawarich_db service to increase the size of the shared memory for PostgreSQL. This should help database with peforming vacuum and other operations. Also, it introduces a custom postgresql.conf file to the dawarich_db service.

To mount a custom postgresql.conf file, you need to create a postgresql.conf file in the dawarich_db service directory and add the following line to it:

  dawarich_db:
    image: postgres:14.2-alpine
    shm_size: 1G
    container_name: dawarich_db
    volumes:
      - dawarich_db_data:/var/lib/postgresql/data
      - dawarich_shared:/var/shared
+     - ./postgresql.conf:/etc/postgresql/postgresql.conf # Provide path to custom config
  ...
    healthcheck:
      test: [ "CMD-SHELL", "pg_isready -U postgres -d dawarich_development" ]
      interval: 10s
      retries: 5
      start_period: 30s
      timeout: 10s
+   command: postgres -c config_file=/etc/postgresql/postgresql.conf # Use custom config

To ensure your database is using custom config, you can connect to the container (docker exec -it dawarich_db psql -U postgres) and run SHOW config_file; command. It should return the following path: /etc/postgresql/postgresql.conf.

An example of a custom postgresql.conf file is provided in the postgresql.conf.example file.

Added

• A button on a year stats card to update stats for the whole year. #466
• A button on a month stats card to update stats for a specific month. #466
• A confirmation alert on the Notifications page before deleting all notifications.
• A shm_size parameter to the dawarich_db service to increase the size of the shared memory for PostgreSQL. This should help database with peforming vacuum and other operations.

  ...
  dawarich_db:
    image: postgres:14.2-alpine
+   shm_size: 1G
  ...

• In addition to api_key parameter, Authorization header is now being used to authenticate API requests. #543

Example:

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

Changed

• The map borders were expanded to make it easier for New Zealanders to scroll around the map.
• The dawarich_db service now uses a custom postgresql.conf file.
• The popup over polylines now shows dates in the user's format, based on their browser settings.

🎄Christmas disclaimer: 🎄

The holidays are ahead of us, so please expect slower responses and fixes. Things should return to their normal pace by the end of January 2025. Meanwhile, give yourself a well-deserved rest and enjoy your time with significant people. Eat some salads, build a snowman if you have snow in your area, and feel that holiday spirit.

Happy holidays!

Full Changelog: 0.19.6...0.19.7

0.19.6

⚠️ This release introduces a breaking change. ⚠️

The dawarich_shared volume now being mounted to /data instead of /var/shared within the container. It fixes Redis data being lost on container restart.

To change this, you need to update the docker-compose.yml file:

  dawarich_redis:
    image: redis:7.0-alpine
    container_name: dawarich_redis
    command: redis-server
    volumes:
+     - dawarich_shared:/data
    restart: always
    healthcheck:

Telemetry is now disabled by default. To enable it, you need to set ENABLE_TELEMETRY env var to true. For those who have telemetry enabled using DISABLE_TELEMETRY env var set to false, telemetry is now disabled by default.

Fixed

• Flash messages are now being removed after 5 seconds.
• Fixed broken migration that was preventing the app from starting.
• Visits page is now loading a lot faster than before.
• Redis data should now be preserved on container restart.
• Fixed a bug where export files could have double extension, e.g. file.gpx.gpx.

Changed

• Places page is now accessible from the Visits & Places tab on the navbar.
• Exporting process is now being logged.
• ENABLE_TELEMETRY env var is now used instead of DISABLE_TELEMETRY to enable/disable telemetry.
