Update provider seeding logic and documentation to allow creation of admin/shared providers without requiring an API key. Adjust environment variable handling so that a blank or missing API_KEY is valid when API_BASE is set, enabling support for upstream TTS providers that do not require authentication. Remove defaulting to 'none' for API keys in API routes and ensure headers are omitted when no key is present. Add and update tests to verify correct handling of keyless providers.
BREAKING CHANGE: Providers can now be seeded without an API key; API_KEY is no longer required if API_BASE is set. Existing deployments relying on a non-empty API_KEY for seeding should review their environment configuration.
Implement logic to resolve and inject Replicate Kokoro model-specific language
codes based on language tag and voice, using new mapping utilities. Update
`buildReplicateInput` to set `language_code` for the built-in Kokoro model.
Expand language utilities with code mapping and expose `resolveReplicateKokoroLanguageCode`.
Enhance tests to cover language code resolution and input mapping for Replicate
Kokoro, and verify language input key discovery for built-in models.
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 errorCode property from server logger calls, error contract types, and API error bodies throughout the codebase. This reduces duplication and streamlines error reporting, relying on structured event names and error classes for identification. All affected API routes, server logic, and logging utilities have been updated for consistency. Documentation directory added for future reference.
Introduce `serverLogger` utility based on pino for consistent, structured logging across all server and API modules. Replace direct console logging with `serverLogger` and add request-scoped logging helpers. Update environment variable handling, documentation, and deployment guides to reflect new logging configuration (`LOG_FORMAT`, `LOG_LEVEL`, `COMPUTE_LOG_LEVEL`). Enforce no-console in server code via ESLint and add pino/pino-pretty dependencies.
This change standardizes log output, improves observability, and prepares the codebase for ingestion by log platforms.
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.
Move resolveVoices and resolveReplicateVoiceInputKey to a new server-side
voice-resolution module to improve separation of concerns and reduce shared
bundle size. Update all imports and related tests to use the new module.
Remove unused LRUMap and related caches from shared catalog. Update Replicate
cooldown logic to use per-scope LRU cache for improved concurrency handling.
