Replace Redis and BullMQ with NATS JetStream and KV for job queuing and state management
in the compute worker service. Update environment variables, Docker Compose, and documentation
to reflect the new message queue backend. Adjust dependencies and code to use NATS-based
work queue and key-value storage for durable job processing.
This change improves scalability and reliability of distributed compute workloads by leveraging
NATS JetStream's work queue and persistence features. Documentation and configuration examples
are updated to guide deployments using the new backend.
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.
Replace the previous whisper.cpp-based word alignment with a fully ONNX-based
implementation using onnxruntime-node and @huggingface/tokenizers. Add new
Whisper ONNX model management, alignment mapping, and spectral analysis modules.
Remove all code and documentation referencing whisper.cpp, update environment
variables, Dockerfile, and docs to reflect ONNX-only alignment. Add unit tests
for alignment and ONNX model logic.
Expand and clarify documentation for TTS segment storage, including key layout, cleanup, and CLI access in object storage. Add details on the `tts_segments` schema and migration process. Revise local development and Docker quick start guides with improved prerequisites, platform-specific setup instructions, and updated TTS provider references. Document new usage of `AUTH_SECRET` for TTS segment text fingerprinting.
Align default Replicate model to the versioned Kokoro model across UI, docs,
and server logic. Refactor TTS settings merging for audiobooks to ensure
consistent normalization. Improve Retry-After header handling for upstream
rate limits. Expand Replicate voice resolution to use model schemas when
available, with test coverage for custom and built-in models.
Update documentation to reflect new Replicate defaults, model selection,
and configuration guidance.
