- Deleted mergeTextWithRegions.ts, LICENSE.txt, manifest.json, parsePdf.ts, renderPage.ts, runLayoutModel.ts, stitchCrossPageBlocks.ts, and types.ts as they are no longer needed.
- Updated unit tests to reflect new import paths from @openreader/compute-core.
- Adjusted tsconfig.json to include new paths for pdf-layout module.
Restructure compute core by extracting job contracts and runtime logic into separate
modules (`contracts.ts`, `local-runtime.ts`) for improved modularity and clearer
API boundaries. Update exports and imports across worker, server, and local
compute backends to use the new modules. Enhance Next.js config to support
dynamic backend selection via build-time constants and aliasing, enabling
seamless switching between local and worker compute modes. Adjust TypeScript
paths and Dockerfile entrypoint to align with the new structure.
Revise project highlights in README and introduction to emphasize ONNX-based
PDF layout parsing (PP-DocLayoutV3), segment-based TTS playback, and flexible
backend/storage options. Clarify compute modes and self-hosting features.
Update TTS provider descriptions for accuracy and conciseness.
Also expand tsconfig exclude list to omit compute worker sources from main build.
Introduce support for external compute worker mode (`COMPUTE_MODE=worker`) using a new `WorkerComputeBackend`. This enables offloading heavy ONNX Whisper alignment and PDF layout parsing to a standalone worker service (Redis + BullMQ), improving scalability and compatibility with serverless/limited environments.
- Add `@openreader/compute-core` as a shared package for ONNX inference and PDF parsing logic.
- Implement `WorkerComputeBackend` and worker contract/types for remote job execution.
- Update compute backend selection logic and remove previous worker mode guards.
- Extend `WhisperAlignInput` and `PdfLayoutInput` types to support object keys for remote data access.
- Refactor local compute backend to use `@openreader/compute-core` and support both buffer and object key inputs.
- Update job runner, TTS segment alignment, and PDF layout parsing flows to use new compute backend APIs.
- Add scripts, Docker workflow, and documentation for deploying and running the compute worker.
- Update environment variable docs and examples for worker mode, including storage requirements and configuration.
- Document published images and stack changes to reflect the new compute worker architecture.
BREAKING CHANGE: `COMPUTE_MODE=worker` now requires an external compute worker service and S3-compatible object storage. Embedded SeaweedFS (`weed mini`) is not supported in worker mode. See the new documentation for deployment and configuration details.
Add environment variables for fine-grained control over TTS rate limiting
and Better Auth behavior. Move documentation to external Docusaurus site
with automated deployment workflows.
- TTS rate limiting can now be enabled/disabled via TTS_ENABLE_RATE_LIMIT
- Customizable daily limits for anonymous/authenticated users and IP backstops
- Better Auth rate limiting can be disabled via DISABLE_AUTH_RATE_LIMIT
- Rename library import env vars to IMPORT_LIBRARY_DIRS/DIR
- Add docs-site with Docusaurus and GitHub Actions workflows
- Update README to reference external documentation
