- Replace `OPENREADER_COMPUTE_MODE` and related variables with `COMPUTE_MODE`
- Replace `OPENREADER_*` PDF/Whisper model URLs with `PDF_LAYOUT_MODEL_BASE_URL` and `WHISPER_MODEL_BASE_URL`
- Remove legacy `NEXT_PUBLIC_*` runtime config seeds in favor of `RUNTIME_SEED_*`
- Update documentation, code, and environment references to match new variable names
- Remove deprecated `scripts/fetch-models.mjs` and related npm script
- Update runtime config SSR injection from `window.__OPENREADER_RUNTIME_CONFIG__` to `window.__RUNTIME_CONFIG__`
- Adjust Next.js config to use new compute mode env var and optimize output file tracing for ONNX dependencies
BREAKING CHANGE: Environment variable names for compute mode, model URLs, and runtime config seeding have changed. Update `.env` files and deployment configs to use `COMPUTE_MODE`, `PDF_LAYOUT_MODEL_BASE_URL`, `WHISPER_MODEL_BASE_URL`, and `RUNTIME_SEED_*` as appropriate. Legacy `OPENREADER_*` and `NEXT_PUBLIC_*` variables are no longer supported.
Migrate PDF parsing to use ONNX Docling layout model for structured block extraction, enabling improved TTS segmentation and chaptering. Add compute backend abstraction for heavy tasks (alignment, layout parsing) with configuration via `OPENREADER_COMPUTE_MODE`. Integrate block-level locators and document settings for per-document PDF parsing options. Update S3 storage for parsed PDF JSON, add migration and schema changes, and extend client and server APIs for parsed data and settings. Remove legacy word highlight flag in favor of compute capability detection.
- Add ONNX model download, local/none compute modes, and `onnxruntime-node` dependency
- Update PDF viewer and TTS pipeline to use parsed blocks and block-level locators
- Add document settings storage and APIs for per-document PDF options
- Update S3 storage layout for parsed PDF JSON
- Add admin/config/docs updates for new compute and parsing features
- Remove obsolete word highlight runtime flag and UI
BREAKING CHANGE: PDF parsing and word highlighting now require `OPENREADER_COMPUTE_MODE=local` and ONNX model; document settings and S3 layout updated; legacy word highlight flag removed.
Expand admin panel documentation to detail the transition from live env var
reading to one-shot seeding for TTS providers in v3.0.0. Add warnings about
the impact of rotating AUTH_SECRET on encrypted admin provider keys and the
required manual steps after rotation.
docs(migrations): add schema migration history table
Document the sequence and purpose of each migration introduced in v3.0.0,
clarifying upgrade behavior from v2.2.0 and summarizing schema changes.
chore(env): remove commented default TTS model example from .env.example
Introduce `enableUserSignups` runtime setting to allow administrators to control
whether new accounts can be created. Update environment variable and documentation
references to support this feature. UI elements for account creation are now
conditionally rendered based on this flag. Signup attempts are blocked server-side
when disabled, including email, OAuth, and anonymous upgrades.
Add `assertUserSignupAllowed` utility for consistent enforcement and corresponding
unit tests to verify policy behavior.
Introduce changelog feed manifest support, including client and shared
utilities for fetching and parsing changelog data. Add a new
Settings modal panel for viewing changelog entries, with version
detection based on the current app version. Expose a configurable
changelog feed URL in both environment variables and admin panel
runtime settings. Update documentation and deployment workflow to
support changelog feed generation and consumption. Include unit tests
for changelog utilities.
Eliminate the showAllDeepInfraModels runtime/admin config and all code paths
that allowed restricting Deepinfra's model catalog. Deepinfra now always
shows the full model list regardless of API key or environment variable.
Update documentation, environment examples, admin panels, runtime config,
provider catalog logic, and tests to reflect this change.
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 a dedicated Admin Panel documentation page detailing management of shared TTS providers and site features via the admin UI. Update all TTS provider guides, environment variable references, and deployment docs to clarify the new runtime configuration model: environment variables serve as first-boot seeds only, with ongoing management handled through the admin interface. Revise sidebars and cross-links to include the new admin panel docs and clarify the distinction between legacy env-based and admin-managed configuration.
