v0.5.0

Contains many breaking changes:

• Boolean query syntax is completely ditched to follow the more conventional + / - syntax. A ~ operator is also supported, which translates to AND NOT word.
• Chinese tokenizer is completely rewritten without Jieba, and now uses single chinese character tokenization, relying on proximity ranking to produce relevant results. A good amount of tests are also added for it.
• Search UI design is completely redone
• Many css variables are removed/added.
• Search UI assets are now bundled into the CLI tool, allowing for semantic versioning installation of both packages.
• Some indexer options (loader_config, field_store_block_size) are renamed to shorter, simpler ones
• Many API changes for "Altering HTML outputs" section

Other changes:

• Stop words are now never removed at query time if present, making proximity ranking produce even more relevant results
• Refactor some internal query processing to reduce binary size by ~10%.
• Use nightly rust to build the wasm bundle with the panic_immediate_abort std feature, reducing binary size by ~15%.
• Increase spelling correction thresholds slightly
• Reduce mobile breakpoint for using fullscreen version to 768px
• Use unsafe unchecked functions where there are strong guarantees to further reduce panic code and improve query performance
• MdBook plugin no longer requires installing the indexer package as well, it is now bundled.
• MdBook plugin no longer generates any configuration file, it is passed to the indexer directly.
• Add body scroll locking for the fullscreen UI, with an option to disable it.
• Fix/add some more default values for field configuration to minimize configuration
• Disable Gzip after more benchmarking
• Fix CLI tool indexing an empty directory
• Dependency version bumps
• Some documentation reorganizations

v0.4.1

Features:

• Add a useBreadcrumbs UI option for forcing displaying the relative file path (as a breadcrumb) as the result preview title instead

Enhancements:

• Tweak dark theme colour scheme
• Transform relative file path breadcrumb components into Title Case as best as possible

Fixes:

• Fix wrong term being highlighted when spelling correction and suffix search is both performed on the last term
• Add user-select: none to fullscreen close button

v0.4.0

Features/Enhancements:

• Polish the tip table design a little further with alternating row colours
• Implement a manual suffix search operator (run* AND ...)
• Delete spelling corrected variants if (automatic) suffix search is done. Suffix search terms are much more likely to be relevant.
• Include auto suffix searched terms into proximity ranking
• Always sort stop words last when choosing terms from suffix search
• Small default spacing / font tweaks
• Add a default configuration and guide for linking to other pages from an indexed HTML file easily
• Display the number of results found

Performance:

• Limit the size of the in-memory postings list cache
• Fix the default pl_limit generating far too many files, possibly slowing search library initialisation tremendously

Fixes:

• Fail softly if attempting to generate a result preview for pdf/csv files via its source file. Show only its relative file path breadcrumb in this case.
• Fix is_corrected flag in the advanced QueryPart interface

Documentation:

• Fix wrong defaults displayed in the Fields chapter for the do_store option

Breaking Changes:

• Rename numberOfExpandedTerms option into maxAutoSuffixSearchTerms
• Generalise "no results found" to a header render API. This now shows "0 results found", "9 results found", etc..
• Correspondingly, termInfo + noResults render APIs are combined into a new header API for altering the default HTML output.

v0.3.3

• Fix term highlighting to ignore terms inside NOT operators
• Tweak term highlighting priority: always prefer highlights with more terms, irregardless of its type (heading-with-body or body-only).
• Add WebAssembly support check
• Minor color and spacing tweaks for the basic and mdbook themes

v0.3.2

• Fix a regression with how stop words are treated when they are removed from the index, when used in tandem with some query operators.
• Fix a race condition that generates a benign error (message)
• Fix tab outline being hidden by overflow: hidden. This property is moved to the <a> element.
• Highlight terms in phrase queries that undergone spelling correction

v0.3.1

• Fix a cache busting regression from optimizing the initial network requests

v0.3.0

• Minor memory optimization for phrase queries
• Optimize initial resource loading to make more concurrent requests
• Add a more unopinionated basic UI theme
• Fix/allow stop-word removed indexes to partially process phrase queries with stop words. The queries are processed as-if the stop words were not there
• Re-enable stop words in user guide (mistakenly disbaled
• Fix tip icon on mobile dropdown wrongly using position: fixed
• Automatically apply morsels-root class to target element for target ui mode

Breaking Changes

• Combine all javascript (including the WebWorker) into one single bundle. The initial script resource is now language specific.
• Stop publishing the npm packages. Distribution will be via CDN or github releases.

v0.2.6

• Add and fix a default, configurable z-index for the dropdown

v0.2.5

• Add include: [] file glob option which functions similarly to exclude: [...], but has lower priority
• Fix missing default field_store_block_size setting during config deserialization
• Tweak some default numbers (increase medium preset postings list size, decrease field_store_block_size) in the larger collection presets

v0.2.4

Fix indexer dependency versioning (0.2.4 => =0.2.4)
