This commit restructures the audiobook generation and serving layer to rely exclusively on S3-compatible blob storage, removing the dependency on local filesystem paths.
- Bundle `ffmpeg` and `ffprobe` binaries via npm to ensure portability across environments.
- Update API routes to stream audio directly from blob storage instead of local disk.
- Remove legacy migration endpoints and filesystem-based indexing logic.
- Add startup scripts to facilitate the transition from local to remote storage.
BREAKING CHANGE: Audiobook functionality is now strictly dependent on S3 configuration. The previous filesystem-based storage method has been removed.
Update modal components to start from top on mobile devices and center on larger screens, improving usability across screen sizes. Also refine transition handling in privacy popup for cleaner unmounting.
- Introduce a toggleable grid/list view for the document list, enhancing organization and display flexibility. This involved updates across `DocumentList`, `DocumentFolder`, `DocumentListItem`, and `SortControls`.
- Add a new `CodeBlock` component and integrate detailed Docker-based self-hosting instructions into the footer.
- Enhance privacy policy popover with clearer details on Deepinfra usage and strongly recommend self-hosting for secure experience.
- Implement conditional rendering and feature gating based on the `isDev` environment variable, differentiating features between the production demo and self-hosted instances. Affected components include `page.tsx`, `DocumentSettings.tsx`, `SettingsModal.tsx`, and `config.ts`.
- Clarify that advanced features like audiobook export and word-by-word highlighting via `whisper.cpp` are exclusive to self-hosted setups and are disabled in the demo.
- Expand the list of supported document types on the homepage to include MD and TXT.
- Integrate new `ListIcon`, `GridIcon`, and `CopyIcon` to support UI enhancements.
- Add a custom `xs` breakpoint in `tailwind.config.ts` for improved responsive design.
- Implement custom previous/next page buttons for EPUB viewer.
- Display current page number out of total pages.
- Introduce an in-viewer, toggleable table of contents (TOC) for quick chapter navigation.
- Hide default `react-reader` navigation arrows and title bar to prevent redundancy.
- Adjust `react-reader` styles to optimize content area and ensure custom controls are visible.
- Update description for EPUB theme setting in document settings.
- Add `ChevronLeftIcon` and `ChevronRightIcon` to icon library.
- Update Playwright tests to reflect new navigation button labels.
Abstracted direct fetch calls across components and contexts into new functions within `src/lib/client.ts`. This provides a consistent and centralized interface for interacting with backend APIs.
- Introduced `src/lib/client.ts` to encapsulate API request logic.
- Standardized audio buffer types (`TTSAudioBuffer`, `TTSAudioBytes`) in `src/types/tts.ts`.
- Moved client-specific request types (`TTSRequestPayload`, `TTSRequestHeaders`, `TTSRetryOptions`) to `src/types/client.ts`.
- Updated API routes and consumer components/contexts to leverage the new client library functions and type definitions.
- Removed `src/utils/audio.ts` as its utility functions are now part of `src/lib/client.ts`.
- Introduce `/api/whisper` endpoint which uses `whisper.cpp` (via a `WHISPER_CPP_BIN` executable) and `ffmpeg` to generate word-level audio alignments from provided audio and text.
- Integrate word-level alignments into `TTSContext`, tracking the currently spoken word based on audio seek position and provided timestamps. Alignments are cached in-memory and fetched asynchronously.
- Add new configuration options (`pdfWordHighlightEnabled`, `epubWordHighlightEnabled`) to `ConfigContext` and `Dexie` for enabling/disabling the feature.
- Implement visual word highlighting in both `PDFViewer` and `EPUBViewer` by mapping TTS-aligned words to rendered text elements.
- Enhance `EPUBContext` and `PDFContext` with new `highlightWordIndex` and `clearWordHighlights` functions, utilizing fuzzy string matching (`cmpstr`) to robustly align spoken words with displayed text for accurate highlighting.
- Update `DocumentSettings` to include user-facing toggles for the new highlighting modes.
- Removed `onProgress` callback from `regenerateChapter` and related functions across `TTS`, `EPUB`, and `PDF` contexts to simplify the chapter regeneration API.
- Updated `AudiobookExportModal` to align with the refined regeneration API, including removing granular chapter progress display and adding a hint about TTS caching behavior.
- Introduced `TTSAudiobookChapter` interface and renamed `ContinuationMergeResult` to `TTSSmartMergeResult` and `PageTurnEstimate` to `TTSPageTurnEstimate` for better type consistency and clarity.
- Applied minor styling adjustments to buttons and listbox components in modals for visual consistency.
- Added `'use client'` directive to several client-side components for Next.js 13+ compatibility.
- Updated Dockerfile build command from `pnpm run build` to `pnpm build`.
- Added Playwright tests to verify backend chapter state after regeneration.
- Offload computationally intensive text matching for real-time highlighting to a dedicated Web Worker, ensuring the main thread remains responsive during playback.
- Implement a new overlay-based highlighting system that renders independently of the PDF's text layer, providing smoother and more reliable visual feedback without interfering with document rendering.
- Introduce a new setting allowing users to enable or disable real-time text highlighting in PDFs, offering personalized control over the reading interface.
- Upgrade the underlying text comparison algorithm to Dice similarity for more accurate and context-aware matching of spoken words to on-screen text, improving synchronization precision.
- Improve sentence boundary detection, especially for quoted dialogue and complex structures, by enhancing the NLP processing logic, leading to a more natural audio-text flow.
introduce configurable smart sentence splitting with persisted state,
UI toggle, and EPUB/PDF contexts that send continuation metadata.
enhance TTS pipeline to merge cross-page sentences, manage carryover,
and trigger visual page changes during playback for smoother narration.
update README with kokoro quick-start guidance, remove the legacy
issues mapping doc, and add deterministic TTS mocks plus sample audio
for Playwright tests.
