Update the EPUB highlighting cache key to include aligned word texts, ensuring
that changes in alignment or word content invalidate stale cached spans even if
word counts remain unchanged. Clear the word-region cache when rendered text
maps are replaced or reset, preventing incorrect highlights after remapping.
Also add locale tracking to HTML sentence highlighting state to support
language-aware word segmentation during alignment.
Replace EPUB-specific word highlight mapping with shared token-sequence alignment
logic used by HTML and PDF viewers. Remove bespoke alignment code and tests in
favor of a single primitive (`locateAlignmentWordSpans`) that robustly maps
spoken words to rendered text regions, tolerant of transcription and formatting
differences. Update EPUB highlighting to cache per-segment word-region spans for
efficient re-use. Add unit tests for the new alignment logic.
Refactor EPUB and HTML word highlighting to use a shared, position-preserving
text normalization pipeline for mapping TTS alignment offsets to DOM positions.
Replace the previous fuzzy token-matching logic with a direct char→DOM map
based on the canonical "audio" text form, ensuring highlights stay in sync
across languages and with Unicode-aware hyphenation handling.
- Add `highlight-char-map.ts` for shared normalization logic
- Update normalization to handle Unicode hyphenation consistently across
compute, client, and shared layers
- Remove unused fuzzy token mapping and cache logic from EPUB highlighting
- Update tests for new highlight mapping and normalization behavior
BREAKING CHANGE: Removes legacy fuzzy token-based word highlight mapping in favor of direct char offset mapping; highlight cache and tokenization APIs are removed.
Update introduction documentation and README to consistently refer to
OpenReader as "open-source" and highlight its multilingual capabilities.
Refine language segmentation example in multilingual sample text and
expand test coverage for language settings. Adjust TTS segment manifest
to normalize language tags, improve document language update logic, and
fix provider/model compatibility checks for instructions and language
input. Enhance reliability of language support detection for TTS
generation and Replicate provider integration.
Eliminate the unused authEnabled property from context providers, hooks,
components, and API responses. All logic and UI now assume authentication is
required, simplifying prop signatures and reducing branching. Update related
types, context values, and function calls to reflect this change. This streamlines
the authentication flow and removes unnecessary configuration.
Eliminate all code paths, configuration, and documentation related to running
without authentication. Require AUTH_SECRET and BASE_URL at startup, updating
middleware, server logic, and runtime checks to assume auth is always enabled.
Simplify onboarding, settings, and test helpers to reflect mandatory auth.
Update environment examples, Docker and deployment docs, and CI/test configs.
Remove no-auth-specific UI flows, test cases, and feature toggles.
Add useUnmountCleanupRef custom hook to centralize and simplify unmount
cleanup logic in document page components. Refactor EPUB, HTML, and PDF
page components to utilize this hook, replacing repetitive ref and effect
patterns for invoking cleanup functions on unmount. This reduces code
duplication and improves maintainability.
Add useOnboardingCoordinator hook and onboarding-state registry to manage
onboarding-related state such as privacy acceptance and first-visit tracking.
Refactor SettingsModal to utilize the new onboarding state abstractions,
removing legacy privacy gating logic and improving maintainability.
Includes unit tests for onboarding-state registry to ensure correctness.
Update GitHub Actions workflows to latest action versions and improve pnpm usage by introducing per-package workspace configs. Add docs-site/pnpm-workspace.yaml and update Dockerfile/package.json for better monorepo support. Upgrade dependencies across main and docs-site packages for compatibility and security. Refine TypeScript types and hooks for improved type safety and maintainability.
Move shared button, input, and listbox styles to a new formPrimitives module
used across admin panels, settings, and document settings. Update admin and
settings components to import these styles from the new location. Refactor
DocumentSelectionModal to use a direct files prop with loading and error
states, removing fetcher logic and internal fetch state. Add a custom hook
for library document queries. Clean up legacy admin/ui primitives and
standardize segmented controls and section layouts.
Adopt new layout files for app, epub, html, and pdf routes to standardize
Next.js nested layout structure. Refactor SegmentsSidebar to accept an explicit
epubBookRef prop, decoupling it from internal context. Enhance EPUB resize hook
to ignore initial baseline rect and avoid unnecessary TTS interruptions on load.
Simplify Providers by removing legacy context nesting and conditional logic.
Adopt @tanstack/react-query for data fetching and cache management in admin
settings, provider management, shared provider hooks, and context providers.
Replace legacy useState/useEffect data loading with react-query's useQuery and
useMutation patterns. Refactor document, rate-limit, and shared provider
contexts to use query keys and cache invalidation for consistent state across
the app. Add QueryClientProvider to root providers. Update package.json to
include react-query dependency.
Transition all TTS-related logic, types, and UI to use the new providerRef/providerType model in place of legacy ttsProvider fields. Introduce a centralized tts-provider-policy module to encapsulate provider/model capability checks, default value resolution, and compatibility logic. Update all API routes, contexts, hooks, components, and tests to use providerRef and providerType, ensuring consistent handling of built-in and shared TTS providers. Remove legacy defaultTtsModel config in favor of per-provider defaults and shared provider admin control. Add the showAllProviderModels runtime flag to restrict users to provider default models when desired.
BREAKING CHANGE: ttsProvider fields are replaced by providerRef/providerType throughout the codebase; defaultTtsModel config is removed in favor of per-provider defaults.
Add database-backed runtime configuration for feature flags and TTS provider credentials, editable via a new admin UI panel. Replace static NEXT_PUBLIC_* and TTS provider env vars with admin-managed settings stored in the database and injected at SSR for client access. Implement admin-only panels for managing shared TTS provider credentials (with encrypted API keys) and live site feature flags. Add schema migrations, API routes, React contexts, and hooks for SSR-injected runtime config and live updates. Update client and server logic to resolve configuration from the database at runtime, enforcing admin restrictions and supporting migration from legacy env-based config.
BREAKING CHANGE: Feature flags and TTS provider credentials are now managed at runtime via the admin UI. Environment variables are only used for initial seeding and are ignored after first boot. Existing deployments must migrate configuration to the admin panel.
Introduce configurable segment preloading depth, sentence lookahead, and TTS segment max block length for both PDF and EPUB readers. Add new settings to user preferences, config context, and document settings UI. Refactor TTS segment splitting logic to support per-user max block length and propagate these options through PDF/EPUB adapters and TTS segment generation. Update API, manifest pagination, and segment deduplication for improved performance and correctness. Add tests for new NLP options and manifest logic.
BREAKING CHANGE: TTS segment splitting and manifest APIs now require max block length and preloading parameters; user config schema updated.
Introduce SegmentsSidebar component and supporting reader UI for segment-level
navigation and inspection. Add TTS segments manifest and clear API endpoints to
enable efficient retrieval and management of segment variants. Update TTS
segment schema to include settings_hash for improved lookup and indexing,
and adjust indexes to use settings_hash instead of settings_json. Update
contexts and types to support segment variant display and interaction.
This enhances document navigation and TTS segment management for end users.
- Introduce a shared tts-provider-catalog to centralize provider/model/voice defaults
and feature flags (supportsTtsInstructions, providerSupportsCustomModel, resolveProviderModels,
getDefaultVoices, etc.). Replace ad-hoc provider logic across server and client with catalog calls.
- Replace inline voice/model UI logic in SettingsModal, AudiobookExportModal, TTSContext,
generate server code, and voice hook to use catalog helpers (resolveTtsSettingsViewModel,
supportsTtsInstructions, getDefaultVoices).
- Extract audiobook generation responsibilities into a small client-side pipeline:
- Add createEpubAudiobookSourceAdapter and createPdfAudiobookSourceAdapter adapter modules
to prepare chapters from EPUB/PDF sources.
- Add runAudiobookGeneration and regenerateAudiobookChapter pipeline functions to handle
chapter preparation, progress tracking, request header construction, and retry/abort behavior.
- Wire adapters/pipeline into EPUBContext and PDFContext to simplify and centralize audiobook flow.
- Move config preference helpers out of ConfigContext into dedicated client modules:
- buildSyncedPreferencePatch (lib/client/config/preferences.ts)
- applyConfigUpdate and getVoicePreferenceKey (lib/client/config/updates.ts)
- Use these helpers in ConfigContext to keep update logic small and testable.
- Add TTS settings view model resolver (lib/client/settings/tts-settings.ts) and tests
for the tts-provider catalog and config helpers (tests/unit/tts-provider-catalog.spec.ts).
- Minor usages updated: AudiobookExportModal, SettingsModal, useVoiceManagement, TTSContext,
server tts generation, and various context files to consume the new modules.
Why: Reduce duplication, improve testability, and separate concerns for provider metadata,
UI view-model logic, and audiobook generation flow. Breaking changes: none.

Replaces custom IndexedDB implementation with Dexie ORM, eliminating 850+ lines of
boilerplate code and introducing reactive live queries across all document types.
Transforms document management from imperative refresh patterns to automatic
reactive updates using dexie-react-hooks.
Simplifies TTS backend by removing concurrency semaphore while maintaining
request de-duplication through in-flight tracking. Streamlines document hooks
by removing manual state management and refresh methods.
Updates package dependencies and type definitions to support new database
architecture while maintaining full backward compatibility for existing
documents and settings.
BREAKING CHANGE: Document hooks no longer expose refresh() methods as updates
are now reactive through live queries.
Add comprehensive multi-provider TTS support enabling users to choose between OpenAI, Deepinfra, and custom OpenAI-compatible endpoints. Implement provider-specific voice management with automatic voice restoration per provider-model combination, and migrate package manager to pnpm for improved dependency handling.
