Previously, only clicking on the "Show" button of the notification - would open the file browser. -* Removed update notifications by the CLI. -* Proper symlink handling: Remote items which are symlinks will now be synced as symlinks - instead of empty files. Local symlinks will no longer be followed during indexing or - silently ignored when syncing. Instead, attempting to upload a symlink will raise an - error because uploading symlinks is not currently supported by the public Dropbox API. - -#### Fixed: - -* Fixes a crash of the `maestral activity` CLI command when run from the macOS App Bundle - due to a missing packaged library. -* Fixes an issue which prevented the `maestral gui` command from working with the macOS - app bundle. -* Fixes an issue where moving a local file to overwrite another file, for example with mv - in the terminal, could generate an incorrect conflicting copy during upload sync. -* Properly handle when the local Dropbox directory is renamed by changing the casing only - on case-insensitive file systems such as APFS on macOS. -* Fixes an issue which could result in sync errors not being cleared after the successful - sync of an item under some circumstances. -* Relative passed to `maestral move-dir` are now interpreted relative to the working - directory where the command is run instead of the working directory of the sync daemon. - -## v1.5.2 - -#### Changed: - -* Improved dialog flow on Linux when the local Dropbox folder is missing. -* Improved error handling when determining the change time (ctime) of a local file fails. - -#### Fixed: - -* Fixes an issue where the output of CLI commands would get truncated to 80 characters - when piped to another command and not attached to an interactive stream such as a - terminal. -* Fixes Python 3.10 compatibility of Linux (Qt) GUI, thanks to @raffaem. -* Fixes an issue where the CLI fails to install on Apple Silicon Macs. -* Fixes a startup loop of the Linux GUI when the local Dropbox folder is missing. - -## v1.5.1 - -#### Changed: - -* Handle Dropbox server errors in the same way as connection errors by retrying the sync - job. - -#### Fixed: - -* Fixed issues when trying to abort the CLI setup dialog with ctrl+C. -* Fixes an issue which could under some circumstances result in deleted folder content - after performing the initial indexing and download. This would mostly occur for shared - folders. -* Fixes an issue where launchd or systemd might start the sync daemon with a non-UTF-8 - encoding set in the environment. -* Fixes an issue where deleting the local Dropbox folder during startup indexing may - result in some files being deleted from the remote Dropbox. - -## v1.5.0 - -#### Added: - -* Added support for Dropbox Business accounts with a Team Space. Shared folders in a Team - Space will now be synced at the top level, next to the user's personal folder. - -#### Changed: - -* Reorganised config file sections. -* Brought back support for macOS High Sierra in the macOS app bundle. - -#### Fixed: - -* Fixed a crash when running the CLI command `maestral config-file --clean`. - -## v1.4.8 - -#### Added: - -* Added automatic updates with Sparkle for the macOS app bundle. - -#### Changed: - -* Improved performance when processing local file events. -* Improved error messages when the system keyring cannot be accessed despite being - unlocked, for example because the executable (app bundle or Python) has an invalid - signature. -* Improved error messages on startup for the macOS app bundle. -* Improved error message in the CLI when setting a config value fails because the new - value has the wrong type. -* Improved handling of more exotic file system or device related errors when opening - local files. - -#### Fixed: - -* Fixed a crash on startup of the daemon when the log level is set to WARNING. -* Fixed an issue which could result in an unresponsive daemon during startup on macOS. -* Fixed an issue which could result in the CLI or GUI to stall indefinitely if the - daemon process is unresponsive. -* Fixed an issue in the macOS GUI where passing the "missing Dropbox folder" flow by - selecting a new location would lead to duplicate menu entries in the status bar menu. -* Fixed an issue where the Linux / Qt GUI would hang indefinitely after unlinking. -* Fixed an issue where moving / removing the local Dropbox folder during a download - could lead to unhandled exceptions instead of useful error messages. -* Fixed handling of 503 and other raw HTTP errors from the Dropbox SDK, for instance - when Dropbox servers have temporary outages or are undergoing planned maintenance. -* Fixed periodic connection checking for connections over proxy using - `http_proxy` environment variable. -* Fixed an issue where some uploaded items would not register as synced after aborting - or pausing during an upload sync. -* Fixed a compatibility issue with watchdog v2.1.4 and higher. - -#### Removed: - -* Removed an unneeded prompt when revoking a shared link. - -## v1.4.6 - -#### Changed: - -* Performance improvements to selective sync dialog in GUI. - -#### Fixed: - -* Fixed an `IndexError` during conflict resolution when the local item is a non-empty - folder. - -## v1.4.5 - -#### Added: - -* Support CMD+Q keyboard shortcut to quit app on macOS. - -#### Changed: - -* Clarified the "merge local folder" option in the GUI's setup dialog. - -#### Fixed: - -* Fixed an issue where erroneous file conflicts could occur when a file name contains - decomposed unicode characters such as "é" represented by "e" + "́" instead of a single - character. -* Fixed an issue where center-aligned text would appear right-aligned on Apple Silicon - computers. - -#### Dependencies: - -* Bumped desktop-notifier to v3.3.0. This fixes a segfault for non-framework - distributions of Python such as Anaconda Python. - -## v1.4.4 - -This release introduces support for tab-completion in the shell, allows you to choose -the actual Dropbox folder instead of its parent folder / location from the GUI, and -further reduces memory usage during startup indexing. As usual, several bugs have -been squashed. - -The website has also moved to its own domain at [maestral.app](https://maestral.app). -The source still lives in the `website` branch of the GitHub repo and contributions are -welcome. - -#### Added: - -* Added support for shell completion. Completion is available for the commands - themselves and for several arguments, notably paths relative to the Dropbox folder and - choices from a set of fixed options. Use the command `maestral completion` to generate - shell completion scripts for bash, zsh or fish. For bash or zsh, save the returned - script in a location of you choice and source it in '\~/.bashrc' or '\~/.zshrc', - respectively. For fish, save the returned script at - '\~/.config/fish/completions/maestral.fish'. Completion is available for the base - commands themselves and several arguments, notably paths relative to the Dropbox - folder and choices from a set of fixed options. - -#### Changed: - -* Improved error messages when inotify limits are reached on Linux. -* GUI dialogs to select a local Dropbox folder now ask for the actual folder name - instead of the location only. -* Local indexing on startup is now carried out without loading the entire folder tree - into memory. This further reduces peak memory usage and fragmentation. -* Permission errors when scanning the contents of a local folder during startup indexing - are now treated as fatal errors instead of skipping its content. This prevents items - from being deleted on the server when they are still present locally but inaccessible. -* Improved logging during daemon startup: Logging is now initialised immediately after - the main imports and therefore captures potential errors early during the startup - process. -* Loggers are scoped per configuration instead of globally. This enables separating logs - for Maestral instances for different configs which are running in the same process. -* Improved performance and appearance of the selective sync dialog. Folder content is - no longer pre-fetched but will be loaded on-demand when expanding a folder. - -#### Fixed: - -* Fixes a rare issue where throttling of sync threads would be disabled if the - "max_cpu_percent" config value would be set to 100% divided by the number of CPU cores - (e.g, 25% on a 4-core CPU). -* Fixes an issue where a local permission error would be treated as a fatal error - instead of as a sync issue. -* Moving the Dropbox folder between partitions no longer triggers a full resync. -* Fixes an error when running the `diff` CLI command and selecting the local file as the - base version. -* Fixes download links in the update dialog. -* Fixes an unexpected error which may occur when creating a conflicting copy. - -#### Dependencies: - -* Bumped click to >= v8.0.0 to support shell completion. -* Bumped survey to >= v3.4.3 for Python 3.6 support. - -## v1.4.3 - -This release improves performance and memory usage by switching from sqlalchamey to our -own database interaction layer. - -Maestral now also has a website with a detailed documentation of the command line -interface, released with github pages at -[https://samschott.github.io/maestral](https://samschott.github.io/maestral). - -#### Changed: - -* We now use our own ORM layer instead of sqlalchemy. This improves both baseline memory - usage and peak memory usage during startup and indexing. -* Use a new network session for each thread and clean up network resources before the - thread stops. -* The macOS GUI will now show a dock icon if there is an open window. -* The CLI will print full tracebacks to the console in case of unexpected errors. - -#### Fixed: - -* Fixed detecting local changes when saving an MS Office on macOS with recent versions - of the Office suite. - -#### Dependencies: - -* Bumped desktop-notifier to >=3.2.2 -* Bumped watchdog to >=2.0.1 -* Removed sqlalchemy -* Removed alembic - -## v1.4.2 - -Fixes an issue where the daemon might restart syncing even though it should be paused -when an internet connection is reestablished. - -## v1.4.1 - -Fixes an issue where the daemon status may incorrectly report "Connecting..." even -though the daemon is connected. - -## v1.4.0 - -This release brings significant extensions to the command line interface: It introduces -commands to create and manage shared links, to compare older version of a file and print -the diff output to the terminal, and commands for direct access to config values (note -the warning below). It also adds optional one-way syncing, for instance to keep a mirror -of a remote Dropbox folder while ignoring local changes. - -Several bugs have been fixed which could occur when resuming the sync activity after the -connection had been lost while indexing a remote folder. - -Finally, this release removes automatic error reporting via Bugsnag. Please file any bug -reports as issues on GitHub where it is possible to follow up. - -#### Added: - -* Added a command `maestral diff` to compare different versions of a text file. The - resulting diff is printed to the console. Credit goes to @OrangeFran. -* Resurrected the command `maestral revs` to list previous versions (revisions) of a - file. -* Added a command group `maestral sharelink` to create and manage shared links. - Subcommands are: - - * `create`: Create a shared link for a file or folder, optionally with password - protection and an expiry date on supported accounts (business and professional). - * `list`: List shared links, either for a specific file or folder or for all items - in your Dropbox. - * `revoke`: Revoke a shared link. - -* Added a command group `maestral config` to provide direct access to config values. - Subcommands are: - - * `get`: Gets the config value for a key. - * `set`: Sets the config value for a key. - - This provides access to previously inaccessible config values such as - `reindex_interval` or `max_cpu_percent`. Please refer to a Wiki for an overview of all - config values. Use the `set` command with caution: setting some config values may - leave the daemon in an inconsistent state (e.g., changing the location of the Dropbox - folder). Always use the equivalent command from the Settings group (e.g., `maestral - move-dir`). -* Added the ability to disable a single sync direction, for instance to enable download - syncs only. This can be useful when you want to mirror a remote folder while ignoring - local changes or when syncing to a file system which does not support inotify. To use - this, set the respective config values for `upload` or `download` to False. Note that - conflict resolution remains unaffected. For instance, when an unsynced local change - would be overwritten by a remote change, the local file will be moved to a - "conflicting copy" first. However, the conflicting copy will not be uploaded. - -#### Changed: - -* Changes to indexing: - - * Avoid scanning of objects matching an `.mignore` pattern (file watches will still - be added however). This results in performance improvements during startup and - resume. A resulting behavioral change is that **maestral will remove files matching - an ignore pattern from Dropbox**. After this change it will be immaterial if an - `.mignore` pattern is added before or after having matching files in Dropbox. Credit - goes to @andrewsali. - * If Maestral is quit or interrupted during indexing, for instance due to connection - problems, it will later resume from the same position instead of restarting from the - beginning. - * Indexing will no longer skip excluded folders. This is necessary for the above - change. - * Defer periodic reindexing, typically carried out weekly, if the device is not - connected to an AC power supply. This prevents draining the battery when hashing - file contents. - -* Changes to CLI: - - * Moved linking and unlinking to a new command group `maestral auth` with subcommands - `link`, `unlink` and `status`. - * Renamed the command `file-status` to `filestatus`. - * Added a `--yes, -Y` flag to the `unlink` to command to skip the confirmation prompt. - * Renamed the `configs` command to list config files to `config-files`. - * Added an option `--clean` to `config-files` to remove all stale config files (those - without a linked Dropbox account). - -* Improved the error message when the user is running out of inotify watches: Recommend - default values of `max_user_watches = 524288` and `max_user_instances = 1024` or - double the current values, whichever is higher. Advise to apply the changes with - `sysctl -p`. - -#### Fixed: - -* Fixes an issue with the CLI on Python 3.6 where commands that print dates to the - console would raise an exception. -* Properly handle a rare OSError "[Errno 41] Protocol wrong type for socket" on macOS, - see https://bugs.python.org/issue33450. -* Allow creating local files even if we cannot set their permissions, for instances on - some mounted NTFS drives. -* Fixes an issue with the selective sync dialog in the Qt / Linux GUI where the "Update" - button could be incorrectly enabled or disabled. -* Fixes an issue where a lost internet connection while starting the sync could lead to - a stuck sync thread or an endless indexing cycle. -* Fixes an issue where a lost internet connection during the download of a folder newly - included in selective sync could result in the download never being completed. -* Fixes an issue where pausing the sync during the download of a folder newly included - in selective sync could result in the download never being completed. - -#### Removed: - -* Removed automatic error reporting via bugsnag. -* Removed from CLI: - - * The `maestral restart` command. Use `stop` and `start` instead. - * The `maestral account-info` command. Use `maestral auth status` instead. - -* Removed the public API methods `Maestral.resume_sync` and `Maestral.pause_sync`. Use - `Maestral.start_sync` and `Maestral.stop_sync` instead. - -#### Dependencies: - -* Bumped survey to version >=3.2.2,<4.0. -* Bumped keyring to version >=22. -* Bumped watchdog to version >= 2.0. -* Added `desktop-notifier` dependency. This is spin-off project from Maestral, built on - the code previously in the `notify` module. -* Removed the bugsnag dependency. - -## v1.3.1 - -#### Fixed: - -* Fixes an incorrect entry point for the Qt GUI. - -## v1.3.0 - -This release features an overhaul of the command line interface: commands are grouped by -sections in the help output, dialogs and output formatting have been improved and many -commands have become significantly faster. - -This release also significantly reduces the CPU usage when idle and provides a whole -series of bug fixes for GUI and daemon. - -#### Added: - -* Desktop notifications for sync errors are now clickable and will show the related file - or folder either on Dropbox or locally. -* Desktop notifications now have a "Show" button to show a recently changed file. -* Added a public API `Maetral.status_change_longpoll` for frontends to wait for status - changes without frequent polling. `status_change_longpoll` blocks until there is a - change in status and then returns `True`. The default timeout is 60 sec. - -#### Changed: - -* Significant improvements to the command line interface: - * Overhauled all CLI dialogs with nicer formatting and more interactive prompts - using the `survey` package. - * Improved output of many CLI commands, including `ls`, `activity`, and `restore`. - * Increased speed of many CLI commands by importing only necessary modules. - * Shortened help texts for CLI commands. - * Group help output by function. -* Reduced the CPU usage of daemon and GUIs in the idle state: - * Increased timeouts for all event queues. - * Decreased the frequency of daemon housekeeping tasks. - * GUIs now use longpoll APIs to wait for state changes instead of frequent polling. -* Improved performance when syncing a large number of remote deletions. -* The `Maestral.include_item()` API now accepts paths which lie inside an excluded - folder. When called with such a path, all immediate parents will be included as well. - This change also applies to the `maestral excluded remove`. -* The `Maestral.excluded_items` property is no longer read-only. -* Some refactoring of the `cli` module to prepare for shell completion support. - -#### Fixed: - -* Fixes an issue where all newly downloaded files would be created with 755 permissions. - They are now created with the user's default permissions for new files instead. -* Fixes an unexpected crash when the list of `pending_downloads` or `download_errors` - would contain an invalid path, i.e., a Dropbox path for which we cannot get any - current or deleted metadata. -* Fixes an error when a local file name contains bytes which cannot be decoded by - reported file system encoding. This now raises a sync error instead of crashing and - all log handlers have been updated to deal with the resulting surrogate escapes. -* Fixes possible loss of data when excluding an item from syncing while it is - downloaded. This is no longer possible and will raise a `BusyError` instead. -* Fixes an issue where `maestral ls` would fail when run with the `-l, --long` flag. -* Fixes an occasional `IndexError` during a download sync when trying to query past - versions of a deleted item. -* Fixes an issue which could cause a segfault of the selective sync dialog on macOS. -* Fixes an issue where the selective sync dialog on Linux would not load the contents of - more than 10 folders. -* Fixes a regression with the autostart functionality of the Linux GUI. Autostart - entries created with v1.2.2 will need be reset by toggling the checkbox "start on - login" off and on. -* Fixes an issue where two configs linked to the same Dropbox account would both be - unlinked when trying to unlink only one of them. -* Fixes an import error with v11.0 of the Dropbox SDK. - -#### Removed: - -* Removed the `maestral rev` command to list old file revisions. Instead - `maestral restore` will list possible revisions to restore. - -#### Deprecated: - -* Deprecated the `Maestral.set_excluded_items` API. Use the setter for - `Maestral.excluded_items` instead. - -#### Development: - -* Updated tests and migrated fully to pytest. -* Improved API documentation, including sections on the sync logic and on logging. -* Added contributing guidelines. - -#### Dependencies: - -* Require `watchdog<=10.3` because of an unresolved issue in watchdog 0.10.4 on macOS. -* Pin `dropbox<12.0` to avoid bad surprises in case of breaking changes. -* Add `survey>=2.1.0` for an interactive CLI. - -## v1.2.2 - -This release focuses on bug fixes and performance improvements. In particular, memory -usage has been improved when syncing a Dropbox folder with a large number of items. - -#### Changed: - -- `maestral file-status` now accepts relative paths. -- Runs the daemon in a Python interpreter with -OO flags. This strips docstrings and - saves a few MB of memory. -- Moves from `pkg_resources` to locate entry points and other metadata to the faster and - more light-weight `importlib.metadata`. -- Update scripts are no longer run after a fresh install or for a new config. -- Significantly reduces memory usage during the initial sync of a Dropbox folder with - many (> 10,000) items and when downloading a large set of changes. To achieve this, - new APIs have been added to `SyncEngine` and `DropboxClient` that return iterators - over remote changes. Dropbox servers are queried on every iteration. -- `Maestral.get_history` now returns only the last 100 sync events by default. This can - be increased by setting the `limit` argument manually. -- The total sync history kept in out database is limited to the last 1,000 events. -- Switch from PyInstaller to [briefcase](https://github.com/beeware/briefcase) for - packaging on macOS. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes an issue which would prevent the daemon from starting on macOS when running with - Python 3.6. -- Fixes a segfault of the macOS GUI on macOS High Sierra. -- Fixes an issue with the macOS GUI becoming unresponsive when opening the selective - sync dialog if one of the displayed folders contains a large number (> 2k) of - immediate children. -- Fixes an issue with the Qt GUI crashing when opening the selective sync dialog if one - of the folders contains a large number (> 2k) of immediate children. -- Fixes an issue where `Mastral.excluded_status` would return "included" for items - inside an excluded folder. - -## v1.2.1 - -This update provides bug fixes and some improvements to error handling. Major changes -don't regard Maestral itself but its distribution: a Docker image is now available, -thanks to @aries1980, and the macOS app bundle has been rebuilt with the macOS 11 SDK, -providing full compatibility from macOS 10.13 High Sierra to macOS 11.0 Big Sur. - -#### Added: - -- Added a Docker image, thanks to @aries1980. The docker image is based on Linux and - does not currently include a GUI. -- Added `-V, --version` option to the command line interface to show the version and - exit. - -#### Changed: - -- Improves handling of database related errors such as database integrity, missing read - / write permissions for the database file, etc. -- Improves handling of errors when the keyring cannot be unlocked to delete credentials - during an unlink. -- Improves handling of errors when the keyring where Dropbox credentials are stored - becomes unavailable, e.g., has been uninstalled. -- Never start a subprocess when maestral is run with the `-f, --foreground` option. - Previously, any required setup such as linking, etc, would still be performed in a - subprocess. -- Minor tweaks and improvements to the macOS GUI. -- Allow sending desktop notifications in Linux before the daemon's event loop has - started. This is useful for error messages which occur early during the - initialization. -- Improves log messages when the connection to Dropbox is lost. -- Performance improvements to `maestral activity` in case of very large sync queues. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes a database integrity error due to an unfulfilled unique constraint. -- Fixes an issue when the daemon is launched with systemd where systemd would - unexpectedly receive notifications from a subprocess instead of the main process. -- Fixes an issue which would prevent syncing from automatically resuming after moving the - local Dropbox directory with `maestral move-dir` or through the GUI. -- Fixed a green background for sync issue views in the macOS GUI. -- Fixes an issue where the system tray icon in KDE Plasma could fall back to the regular - app icon or not show up at all, -- Fixes an issue where the user may be asked to unlock or grant access to the system - keyring twice on startup if access denied the first time. - -#### Dependencies: - -- Adds `alembic` dependency for database migrations. - -## v1.2.0 - -The local file index and sync history are now stored in a SQLite database. After the -update, Maestral will first reindex your Dropbox to populate the new index. - -This change enables several improvements to the command line interface and GUI: The -command `maestral activity` now shows the progress of individual uploads or downloads. -`maestral history` has been added to list recent sync events. In the GUI, the recent -changes menu now has been replaced by a "Activity" window which shows all sync events of -the past week. - -This release also introduces clickable desktop notifications, performance improvements -to indexing of local file changes, and bug fixes and smaller changes listed below. - -Finally, this release introduces support for macOS 11 (Big Sur). - -#### Added: - -- Added an option `-e, --external` to `maestral log show` to open the log in the - platform's default program instead of showing it in the console. -- Added a CLI command `history` to show all sync events of the past week. -- Added a "Activity" window to show all sync events of the past week. -- Desktop notifications are now clickable: for a single file change, clicking the - notification will show the file in the platform's file manager. For a deletion, the - Dropbox website is opened to provide options for restoring the file or folder. -- Use entry points to discover GUI frontends. 3rd party GUIs can register a - `maestral_gui` entry point to be launched with the `maestral gui` CLI command. If - installed, `maestral gui` will default to the 1st party `maestral-cocoa` or `maestral- - qt` GUIs on macOS and Linux, respectively. - -#### Changed: - -- Transition to short-lived auth tokens for newly linked accounts. -- Transition to OAuth scopes for app permissions. -- Save all sync history and local index in SQLite database. -- Reduce unnecessary path conversions during indexing of local changes. -- Improved performance on case-sensitive file systems. -- Sync remote changes in filename even if they are only a change in casing. Those - changes where previously ignored. -- Attempt to preserve local file permissions when syncing unless the file id has - changed. Dropbox servers do store file permissions but don't make them available - through the public API. We therefore cannot sync file permissions and instead choose - not to overwrite locally set permissions on every download. -- Changed return type of `Maestral.get_activity` from namedtuple to dict for better - consistency throughout the API. Every uploading or downloading item will have 'size' - and 'completed' entries to monitor the progress of syncing individual items. -- The CLI command `maestral activity` now shows the progress of uploads and downloads - for individual files. -- Introduced type annotations throughout and fixed a few type-related bugs. -- Added a field "Sync threads" to the output of the CLI command `maestral status`. -- The output of `maestral ls` is now printed in a grid, similar to the `ls` command - included with most platforms. -- The macOS app bundle now uses Python 3.8, leading to some performance improvements - when moving or copying file system trees. -- Prepared the GUI for changes in macOS Big Sur: use native alerts and dialogs wherever - possible and refactor loading of libraries. -- Use an asyncio event loop instead of Pyro's event loop to run the daemon. This enables - integration with the Cocoa run loop and callbacks when clicking notifications. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes a bug where throttling of sync threads would raise an error when we cannot - determine the CPU count. -- Fixes a bug where sending SIGTERM to the daemon process would raise an error when we - cannot determine its PID. Now, `Stop.Failed` is returned instead. -- Fixes a bug which would result in incorrect systemd unit files for non-default config - file names. Please disable and re-enable autostart with `maestral autostart -Y|-N` to - replace old unit files. -- Fixes a possible race condition when creating the cache directory. -- Fixes error handling when a file is changed while uploading. - -#### Removed: - -- Support for config names with spaces. Spaces could cause issues with autostart entries - on some platforms. -- The ability to run the daemon in a separate thread. The daemon must now always be run - in its own process. - -#### Dependencies: - -- Replaced `jeepney` dependency on Linux with `dbus-next`. - -## v1.1.0 - -This release expands the CLI functionality and improves the handling of file -modification times during upload and download (used for display purposes only). It also -fixes bugs with the "start on login" functionality of the macOS app bundle. After -updating, please toggle "start on login" in the GUI or `maestral autostart` in the CLI -to replace any old login items. - -#### Added: - -- Added `--include-deleted` option to `maestral ls`. -- Added `-l, --long` option to `maestral ls` to include metadata in listing. -- Added `maestral revs` command to list revisions of a file. -- Added `maestral restore` command to restore an old revision of a file. - -#### Changed: - -- Always create config directory if it does not exist. -- Improved performance of converting Dropbox paths to correctly cased local paths. -- Renamed macOS executable inside app bundle from "main" to "Maestral". This results in - more informative process names. -- Local files are now created with the "last modified" time provided by Dropbox servers. - This only applies to new downloads. To update existing modified times, you will need - to delete and redownload your Dropbox folder. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes a thread-safety issue with desktop notifications. -- Fixes a thread-safety issue when two frontends try to start or stop syncing at the - same time. -- Fixes an issue where Maestral could incorrectly identify a file system as case - sensitive if the Dropbox folder and temporary directory are on partitions with - different file systems. -- Fixes incorrect file modification times uploaded to Dropbox for timezones outside of - UTC. Those times are used for display purposes only. -- Fixes an issue where the `maestral autostart -Y` CLI command would start the GUI on - on login in case of the macOS app bundle. - -## v1.0.3 - -#### Changed: - -- Both "-h" and "--help" can now be used to print help output for a command. -- Show both the daemon and GUI version in the settings window. -- The command line tool bundled with the macOS app now provides proper help output. -- Significantly reduced CPU usage of the GUI on macOS. -- The macOS app now uses a hardened runtime and is properly signed and notarized. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes an issue which could lead to the local Dropbox folder being moved before syncing - has been paused. -- Fixes an issue where download errors would show a rev number instead of the Dropbox - path. -- Fixes a race condition when two processes try to start a sync daemon at the same time. -- Fixes an issue in the macOS GUI where updating the displayed sync issues could fail. -- Fixes truncated text in the macOS setup dialog. -- Fixes an issue on fresh macOS installs where creating autostart entries could fail if - /Library/LaunchAgents does not yet exist. -- Fixes an issue in the macOS app bundle where installing the command line could tool - would fail if /usr/local/bin is owned by root (as is default on a fresh install). Now, - the user is asked for permission instead. - -#### Dependencies: - -- Removed `lockfile` dependency. -- Added `fasteners` dependency. - -## v1.0.2 - -This release fixes bugs in the command line interface. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes a crash of the CLI when an update is available due to incorrect formatting of - the update message. -- Fixes an error when listing the contents of an empty directory with `maestral ls`. - -## v1.0.0 - -This is the first stable release of Maestral. There have been numerous bug fixes to -error handling and platform integration as well as a few bug fixes to syncing itself. -There are also a few outward facing changes: Pausing Maestral now cancels any pending -sync jobs instead of waiting for them to be completed. The macOS GUI switches from Qt to -using a native Cocoa interface and the macOS app bundle finally includes a full command -line interface. - -#### Added: - -- Command line tools are now bundled with the macOS app bundle and can be installed from - the settings window. -- Added support for config names with spaces. -- Switch from Qt to native Cocoa GUI on macOS. -- Expanded test suite to include sync tests. - -#### Changed: - -- Added '.dropbox' and '.dropbox.cache' to always excluded paths. -- Pausing sync now cancels all pending uploads and downloads. -- Quicker detection of connection problems. -- Faster sync of local deletions. -- The GUI now always launches a separate daemon process instead of an in-process daemon. -- Temporary files during a download are now stored inside the Dropbox directory at - '.maestral.cache'. This guarantees that temporary files always reside on the same - partition as the Dropbox folder itself. -- System tray icons are no longer installed in the platform theme in Linux. This is part - of a workaround for a Qt issue on Linux desktops which causes unnecessarily large - pixmap transfers over dBus when HiDPI support is enabled. Manually installed icons - will still be respected. -- Switch from implicit grant to PKCE OAuth2 flow. -- Added public API to link a Dropbox account: `Maestral.get_auth_url` and - `Maestral.link`. Frontends no longer need to import `maestral.oauth`. -- Moved all command line dialogs from the main API to the CLI module. -- Bumped watchdog requirement to >= 10.0.0 for more consistent error handling. -- Added explicit jeepny dependency for Linux. This is a dependency of keyring but we use - it by itself as well. -- Improved the reliability of ignoring file system events caused by Maestral itself. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes an issue where a dropped internet connection during startup could result in - continuous retries until the connection is finally established. -- Fixes an issue where downloads of newly included folders would not resume after being - interrupted. -- Fixes an issue which could lead to false conflicting copies of folders in some cases. -- Fixes the handling of inofify limit and permission errors when starting a file system - watch. -- Fixes handling of errors from too long file names. -- Handle errors due to file names which are not allowed on the local file system. -- Fixes handling of some uncaught insufficient disk space errors. -- Fixes incorrect autostart entries on macOS. -- Fixes a crash when running Maestral as a systemd service without python-systemd - installed. -- Fixes an issue when checking for updates if the list of releases from Github includes - dev releases. -- Fixes an issue where only remote changes would be listed in 'Recent changes' in the - GUI. -- Fixes the alignment of comboboxes in the Qt GUI on macOS. -- Fixes a crash on macOS when no notification center is available, for instance in a - headless session or on Github test runners. -- Fixes a crash on Linux when the command line tool `notify-send` is not available. -- Fixes an issue where sync errors would have incomplete path information. -- Resolves an issue where indexing a large Dropbox folder with > 100,000 items would - continuously timeout and restart in some cases. - -#### Removed: - -- Removed migration code for versions < 0.6.3. If you want to update to v1.0.0, please - make sure to upgrade to at least version 0.6.3 first or unlink your Dropbox before - updating to v1.0.0. -- Removed u-msgpack dependency. - -## v0.6.4 - -The release provides bug fixes and minor improvements to the command line and graphical -user interfaces. Importantly, it fixes an issue where some files could accidentally -ubecome n-indexed, resulting in incorrect conflict resolution. - -#### Added: - -- Config option to set the keyring backend. This defaults to 'automatic' but can be used - to specify a preferred backend such as `keyrings.backends.kwallet.DBusKeyring`. You - will need to migrate your credentials manually to the new keyring if you change this - setting. -- Added a `-v, --verbose` flag to `maestral start` and `maestral restart` commands to - print log output to stdout. -- Added an API documentation for developers, available on - [Read the Docs](https://maestral-dropbox.readthedocs.io). - -#### Changed: - -- During initial CLI setup, give the option to sync the entire Dropbox without - paginating through individual folders to exclude. -- Limit the number of notifications to keep in the notification center. This will only - work for some desktop environments. -- Fall back to plain text credential storage if neither Gnome Keyring, KWallet or any - other storage implementing the Secret Service API can be found. A warning is shown - when plain text storage is used. -- Settings and setup windows are no longer always kept on top in Linux. -- `maestral start --foreground` no longer prints log messages to stdout by default. - -#### Fixed: - -- Properly handle errors when moving files, for instance for sync conflicts. -- Fixes an issue where some files could accidentally become un-indexed, resulting in - incorrect conflict resolution. -- Fixes an issue with macOS app bundles where the migration of configuration files was - omitted after an update. This would result in a failure to start the daemon. -- Correctly specify the required version of `six` to work around an upstream issue in - Dropbox. -- Fixes an issue where stdout would end up in the systemd journal in addition to the - structured log messages. -- Fixed a bug where XDG_DATA_HOME was ignored. - -## v0.6.3 - -This release fixes a critical error introduced when updating to v9.5 of the Dropbox -Python SDK which prevented any remote changes from being downloaded. - -#### Changed: - -- Show release notes from all releases since last update in update dialog. -- Use our own method instead of the `psuitl` package to determine the CPU usage. This - eliminates the `psuitl` dependency which can be difficult to install on some systems. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes an issue with downloads failing because Dropbox Metadata is longer hashable from - v9.5 of the Dropbox Python SDK. -- Fixed a StopIteration exception on startup when the location of the maestral CLI - script cannot be found in the package metadata. -- Fixes an error when restarting the daemon with the "foreground" option. -- Fixed incorrect button labels in the setup dialog when choosing whether to replace or - keep an old Dropbox folder. The labels "Replace" and "Cancel" where switched. -- Fixes a bug where the option "Unlink & Quit" in the "Revoked Access" error dialog - would unlink but not quit Maestral. - -## v0.6.2 - -This release enables excluding individual files from syncing and fixes an issue which -led to continuously retrying failed downloads. It also contains significant performance -improvements to indexing, reduces the CPU usage when syncing a large number of files and -introduces weekly re-indexing. - -This release also introduces support for an ".mignore" file with the same syntax as -[gitignore](https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore). This feature is considered 'alpha' and -may change in the future. Feedback is welcome. - -#### Added: - -- Support excluding files from sync. This uses the same 'selective sync' interface as - excluding folders. Excluded files will be removed from the local Dropbox folder. -- Introduces an ".mignore" file to specify files that Maestral should ignore. The - ".mignore" file must be saved in the local Dropbox folder. When excluding files or - folders with selective sync (`maestral exclude`), they will be removed from the local - folder and kept in the cloud only. The ".mignore" file enables the reverse: files or - folders which exist locally will not be uploaded to Dropbox. It uses the same syntax - as [gitignore files](https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore) and, similar to gitignore, - files which are already tracked by Maestral will not be affected. More details are - given in the [Wiki](https://github.com/SamSchott/maestral-dropbox/wiki/mignore). -- Added a config option "max_cpu_percent" to adjust the target maximum CPU usage per CPU - core. This defaults to 20%, i.e., 80% total for a quad core CPU. Maestral will aim to - remain below that percentage but this is not guaranteed. - -#### Changed: - -- Replaced the `excluded_files` and `excluded_folders` settings from the config file - with a unified `excluded_items` setting. Entries from `excluded_folders` will be - migrated to the `excluded_items` setting. -- Renamed methods which exclude / include folders to `exclude_item` etc. -- Speed up creation of local folders. -- When trying to create a file or folder with the same path as an item excluded by - selective sync, the new item is now renamed by appending "selective sync conflict" - instead of raising a sync issue. This is closer the behaviour of the official client. -- Significant performance improvements to indexing and file event processing. Indexing a - remote Dropbox with 20,000 to 30,000 files and comparing it a local folder now takes - ~ 5 min, depending on on the average file size. -- Introduced periodic reindexing every week. This has been made possible by the above - performance improvements. - -#### Fixed: - -- Don't immediately retry when a download fails. Instead, save failed downloads and - retry only on pause / resume or restart. -- Fixes missing cursor and resulting unexpected `ValidationError` during sync startup. -- Wait until all sync activity has stopped before moving the Dropbox folder. This avoids - errors when trying to convert local to dropbox paths and vice versa during the move. -- Fixes an issue which would prevent some conflicting copies created by Dropbox from - being downloaded. -- Correctly handle when a local item is renamed to an always excluded file name such as - ".DS_STORE": the item is now deleted from Dropbox. -- Fixes an issue where sharing an existing folder from the Dropbox website would result - in the folder being deleted locally. This is because Dropbox actually removes the - shared folder from the user's Dropbox and then re-mounts it as a shared drive / file - system. We handle this correctly now by leaving the local folder alone or deleting and - re-downloading it, depending on the time elapsed between removal and re-mounting. -- Improves conflict resolution when a folder has been been replaced with a file or vice - versa and both the local and remote item have un-synced changes. -- Fixes an issue where `maestral stop` would block until all pending syncs have - completed. This could potentially take a *very* long time for large downloads. - Instead, any interrupted downloads will be restarted on next launch. - -#### Removed: - -- Removed the `excluded_files` and `excluded_folders` settings from the config file. - -## v0.6.1 - -This release improves desktop notifications: Notifications will now only appear for -remote file changes and you can chose between different notification levels (CLI only) -and snooze notifications temporarily. It also reintroduces the `maestral autostart` -command to start the sync daemon on login (requires systemd on Linux). This works -independently of the GUI option "Start on login". - -There have also been significant changes in package structure: the GUI has been split -off into a separate package `maestral-qt` which will be installed with the gui extra -`pip3 install -U maestral[gui]` or directly with `pip3 install -U maestral-qt`. A native -Cocoa GUI (`maestral-cocoa`) for macOS is currently in testing and will likely be -released with the next update. - -Other changes include improved error handling, cleaned up config files and some tweaks -to CLI commands. As always, there are several bug fixes. Thank you for all your -feedback! - -#### Added: - -- New CLI command `maestral autostart` to start the daemon on login. This requires - systemd on Linux. The "Start on login" option of the GUI remains independent and the - GUI will attach to an existing daemon if it finds one. -- Added desktop notifications for errors: Serious errors such as revoked Dropbox access, - deleted Dropbox folder, etc, were previously only shown in the GUI as an alert window - or printed as warnings when invoking a CLI command. -- Support for different levels of desktop notifications (CLI only). You can now select - between FILECHANGE, SYNCISSUE, ERROR and NONE with `maestral notify LEVEL`. -- Added an option to snooze notifications. In the CLI, use `maestral notify snooze N` to - snooze notifications for N minutes. In the GUI, use the "Snooze Notifications" menu. -- Support using an existing directory when setting up Maestral through the CLI. This was - previously only supported in the GUI. Files and folders in the existing directory will - be merged with your Dropbox. -- The CLI command `maestral restart` now supports restarting Maestral into the current - process instead of spawning a new process. This is enabled by passing the - `-f, --foreground` option. -- Added a native Cocoa GUI for macOS. This removes the PyQt5 dependency for macOS and - reduces the size of the bundled app from 50 MB to 15 MB. It also eliminates a few - inconsistencies in GUI appearance. Especially the sync issues window looks a lot - better (hopefully you won't see it too often). - -#### Changed: - -- Split off GUI into separate python packages (`maestral-qt`, `maestral-cocoa`). -- Notify only for remote changes and not for those which originated locally. This - should significantly reduce the number of unwanted notifications. -- Renamed `maestral notifications` to `maestral notify` for brevity. -- Renamed the `set-dir` command to `move-dir` to emphesize that it moves the local - Dropbox folder to a new location. -- Configurations are now tied to a Dropbox account: - - New configurations are now created on-demand when calling `maestral gui` or - `maestral start` with a new configuration name. - - A configuration is automatically removed when unlinking a Dropbox account. - - All configurations can be listed together with the account emails with - `maestral configs`. This replaces `maestral config list`. -- For app bundles on macOS, you can now pass a config option `-c, --config-name` to the - bundle's executable ("Maestral.app/Contents/MacOS/main"). It will then use the - specified configuration if it already exists or to create a new one. -- The GUI no longer restarts after completing the setup dialog. -- Removed sync and application state info from the config file. Sync and application - states are now saved separately in '~/.local/share/maestral/CONFIG_NAME.state' on - Linux and '~/Library/Application Support/maestral/CONFIG_NAME.state' on macOS. -- Use atomic save to prevent corruption of the sync index if Maestral crashes or is - killed during a save. -- Moved the sync index to the same folder as the application state. -- Improved conflict detection and resolution when changing files which are currently - being uploaded or downloaded. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes an issue where local changes while maestral was not running could be overwritten - by remote changes instead of resulting in a conflicting copy. -- Fixes an issue where local file events could be ignored while a download is in - progress. -- Fixes an issue where a new local file could be incorrectly deleted if it was created - just after a remote item at the same path was deleted. -- Fixes an issue where `maestral stop` and `maestral restart` would not interrupt - running sync jobs but instead wait for them to be completed. Now, aborted jobs will be - resumed when starting Maestral again. -- Correctly handle when a folder is replaced by a file and vice versa. -- Correctly handle additional error types: internal Dropbox server error, insufficient - space on local drive, file name too long for local file system and out-of-memory - error. -- Automatically resume upload in case of dropped packages instead of raising a sync - issue. -- Set the log level for the systemd journal according to user settings instead of always - using logging.DEBUG. -- Run checks for Dropbox folder location and link status when invoking `maestral - restart`. -- Notify the user through the GUI when moving the Dropbox directory fails instead of - silently keeping the old directory. -- Fixes an issue where the environment variable XDG_DATA_DIR would not be respected in - Linux. - -#### Removed: - -- Removed "-a" option from `maestral ls`. List all entries by default, even if they - start with a period. -- Removed the `maestral config` command group. Configurations are now created and - deleted on-demand and can be listed with `maestral configs`. - -## v0.5.2 - -#### Added: - -- Added automatic crash and error reporting with [bugsnag](https://www.bugsnag.com). - This is *disabled* by default and can be enabled in the Settings pane or with the - command `maestral analytics -Y`. The information sent with the bug report contains a - traceback, the Python version, basic platform information (e.g, - 'Darwin-19.2.0-x86_64-i386-64bit') and potentially the version of PyQt5 and the user's - desktop environment. No personal information will be shared. - -#### Changed: - -- Improved the code which handles multiple configurations: Explicitly pass the config - name to classes instead of keeping it as a global variable. -- Improved starting of the daemon: ensure that the right python executable is used. -- Order of commands returned by `maestral --help` by importance instead of - alphabetically. -- Sync errors will now be listed by `maestral status` if present. -- Live updates to the Settings window when settings are changed from the command line. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixed an issue on macOS where some directory deletions could be ignored in case of - rapid successive deletions. -- Fixed an unexpected exception when attempting to create a directory that already - exists. Do not rely on the `exists_ok` parameter in `os.makedirs` but catch - `FileExistsError` explicitly (see https://bugs.python.org/issue13498). -- Fixed an `AttributeError` when a local folder is replaced by file: the Dropbox - metadata of the folder will not have a content hash. This mostly occurs when modifying - a folder structure programmatically, for instance with git. -- Fixed an `AttributeError` when a remote file has been replaced by a folder before its - changes could be downloaded: the Dropbox metadata of the folder will not have a - content hash. -- Fixed an bug introduced in v0.5.0 which would cause rebuilding the index to block - indefinitely. -- Fixed a crash of the GUI when closing the settings window shortly after closing the - "Chose folders to sync..." dialog. This was caused by QThreads being destroyed while - the threads were still running. -- Fixed an issue where the local revision number of a file could be set to 'folder', - resulting in an exception from the Dropbox API. -- Fixed a bug when the "relink dialog" (shown when Maestral's Dropbox access has - expired) might use the wrong Dropbox account when syncing multiple accounts. -- Fixed an issue with imports in Pyro5 5.7 which prevented the daemon from starting. - -#### Removed: - -- Removed the command `maestral errors` from the CLI. - -## v0.5.0 - -This release improves the sync reliability in case of rapid successive changes to the -local Dropbox folder. It also improves error handling and includes other bug fixes. This -may be considered the first release candidate for a stable v1.0.0. - -#### Added: - -- Show a small bell on top of system tray icon in case of sync issues. -- Notify the user when the local Dropbox folder contains too many items to watch and - recommend increasing the maximum number of inotify watches (Linux only). -- Notify the user when an upload fails because a file exceeds the size limit of 350 GB. -- Notify the user when an upload fails due to dropped network packages. -- Adds a command line option `maestral link -r` to relink to an existing account without - resetting the sync state. This is the equivalent of the GUI 'relink dialog'. - -#### Changed: - -- Refines some error messages. -- Improves error handling in CLI: avoid printing full Python tracebacks to the console. - Print concise and actionable error messages instead if possible. -- Improves formatting of `maestral ls` output. -- Improves status notifications for large uploads: dynamically adapt the unit to show up - to four significant digits (e.g., "16MB/1.6GB" instead of "0/1.6GB"). -- Reduces memory footprint of macOS app by stripping doc strings (at least 5MB in - dropbox package only). - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes multiple sync issues and corner cases due to rapid and successive file changes: - The algorithm which combines successive changes of a local file to a single file event - (created / deleted / modified / moved) has been simplified and improved. -- Fixes an issue which could cause the watchdog thread to crash silently on case- - sensitive file systems when saving changes to a file. -- Removes sip import because it may fail depending on how PyQt was installed. -- Fixed an issue where user notifications would not appear for certain implementations - of 'notify-send'. -- Fixes an error when setting the log level from the CLI. -- Fixes an error when relinking Maestral through the GUI after its Dropbox access has - been revoked. - -## v0.4.4 - -This updates focuses on bug fixes and performance improvements. Notably, it reduces the -memory usage of the GUI by ~ 30MB. If you are upgrading from v0.2.4 or earlier, please -perform an incremental update to v0.4.3 first (see Removed section). - -#### Changed: - -- Show a progress dialog while checking for updates when requested by the user. -- Show an error message when the GUI cannot connect to or start a sync daemon. -- Reduces the memory footprint of the GUI by ~ 30 MB by avoiding Dropbox API imports and - deleting QtWidgets when they are not visible. -- Changing the log level (e.g., `maestral log level DEBUG`) no longer requires a restart - of the maestral daemon to become effective. -- `maestral set-dir` now takes the new path as an argument: `maestral set-dir PATH`. If - not given, the user will be prompted to input a path or use the default. -- Migrated from Pyro4 to Pyro5 for communication with sync daemon. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes an unhandled error when trying to upload changes to a file which is not currently - indexed by Maestral. -- Fixes an unhandled error when attempting to calculate the content hash of a file which - has been deleted locally. This can occur after Maestral has been notified of remote - changes to a file which is deleted locally before comparing file contents. -- Fixes a bug which could result in multiple false "conflicting copies" of a file when - the user modifies the file while it is being uploaded. -- Fixes a regression bug which would prevent the creation and selection of new configs - for different Dropbox accounts. -- Fixes a bug that would prevent Maestral from properly shutting down a sync daemon - which was started from the GUI. This was a result of the daemon's sync threads not - exiting as long as a parent process from the same process group is still alive (the - GUI in our case). We prevent this by using "double-fork" magic to properly orphan the - daemon process so that init will perform its cleanup. See Stevens' "Advanced - Programming in the UNIX Environment" for details (ISBN 0201563177). -- Fixes an issue where the application launcher which is used to start Maestral on login - in Linux may be untrusted. -- Fixes an issue where `maestral set-dir` would fail if the new directory is the same as - the old directory. - -#### Removed: - -- Removed code to migrate config files and sync indices from Maestral versions prior to - v0.2.5. -- Removed code to migrate authentication keys to the system keyring when upgrading from - v0.1.2 or earlier. - -## v0.4.3 - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes a bug which would prevent periodic update checks from running. -- Fixes an issue where the system tray icon would not be displayed on Qt 5.13.1 with - enabled HighDpi support. -- Fixes an issue which would prevent system tray icons from loading on Gnome 3. -- Fixes and issue which would prevent macOS binaries from running due to the team ID - missing in the a code-signing certificate. Note that, even though the macOS binary is - code-signed, the certificate is not from Apple's Developer Program. Therefore, to run - the app, you will have to "right-lick -> Open". - -#### Changed: - -- Tweaked system tray icon design. -- Use NSUserNotificationCenter when running from Python outside of an app bundle. - -#### Removed: - -- Removed automatic detection of Gnome screen scaling factors because it caused problems - on a few desktop environments. Set the environment variable `QT_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTORS` - instead to enable it manually if required. - -## v0.4.2 - -#### Added: - -- Added a command `maestral activity` which gives a live view of all items queued for - syncing or currently being synced. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes crash of the sync thread when attempting to download a file from Dropbox which - has been deleted after it has been queued for download but before the actual download - attempt. -- Fixes crash of the sync thread when attempting to upload a file to Dropbox which has - been deleted after it has been queued for upload but before the actual upload attempt. -- Fixes a bug where the revision number of a file could be incorrectly set to "folder". -- Fixes a crash of the sync thread while indexing local changes (after a restart) if an - indexed item has been deleted before we could check if it is a file or a folder. -- Fixes a bug where newly downloaded files could be immediately re-uploaded in some - cases. -- Fixes a crash on startup when started as systemd service with watchdog. - -## v0.4.1 - -This release focuses on bug fixes and performance improvements. Notable changes are: - -- You can now rebuild Maestral's index from the command line with `maestral rebuild- - index`. -- Communication between the sync daemon and frontend (GUI or CLI) is faster and more - secure. -- Improved system tray notifications. - -Here is the list of all changes: - -#### Added: - -- Added `maestral rebuild-index` command to CLI. -- Added support for systemd software watchdog (see #55). - -#### Changed: - -- Renamed command `maestral config new` to `maestral config add`. -- Renamed command `maestral config delete` to `maestral config remove`. -- Improved system tray notifications: - - Display the name of the user who changed a file - - Added app-icon and and -name to Linux notifications. - - Migrated macOS notifications from `NSUserNotificationCenter` (deprecated) to - `UNUserNotificatioCenter` for macOS Mojave and higher. -- Improved appearance of unlink dialog: show spinning progress indicator and perform - unlink in the background. -- Show menu entry "No recent files" when there are no recently changed files to display. -- Use Unix domain sockets instead of TCP/IP sockets for communication with daemon. This - means that communication is lighter, faster and more secure (other users on the same - PC can no longer connect to your sync daemon). -- Use NSTemporaryDirectory on macOS as runtime dir. -- Simplified code for the initial sync. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes a bug where the CLI setup dialog could fail when choosing to replace an existing - Dropbox folder. -- Fixes a bug which would cause `maestral start` to hang indefinitely if the daemon is - not created successfully (see #57). -- Fixes a bug which would cause `maestral unlink` to fail when the Maestral daemon is - still running. -- Fixes a bug where the Maestral GUI would show a paused icon during the initial sync - after setup. -- Fixes a bug where the menu bar item "Pause Syncing" would not change to "Resume - Syncing" when pausing sync through the CLI via `maestral pause` (and vice versa). -- Catch unexpected exceptions in sync threads and display to user instead of crashing. -- Do not upload changes to an excluded folder but raise a sync issue instead. -- Fixes wrong color of system tray / menu bar icon on macOS when clicked in light-mode. -- Fixes a regression bug from v0.4.0 which caused the creation of new configs for - separate Dropbox accounts to fail silently. -- Fixes a bug which could result in a missing sync cursor when running the Maestral - thafter e initial setup. This would come from parallel access to the config files from - tha read spawned by the setup dialog and the Maestral daemon itself. We now make sure - ththat e setup dialog leaves no threads behind after exiting. -- Fixes a bug which could cause false sync errors when adding a nested folder structure - to the local Dropbox folder. -- Fixes bug in converting Dropbox `DeleteError`s due to an invalid path to - `MaestralApiError`s. -- Fixes a bug which would prevent Maestral from detecting local changes to files that are - part of a batch which is currently being downloaded. -- Fixes a bug where the user may be asked to create a new keyring in a non-default - wallet if multiple wallets are available on first start (see #56). - See https://github.com/jaraco/keyring/issues/391 for the current behaviour of Python - keyring. -- Fixes a bug which could cause the Maestral daemon to be started with a different PATH - than the invoking command (see #57). -- Fixes a bug where changes to a file which is not synced locally would trigger "file - added" instead of "file modified" notifications. - -## v0.4.0 - -Main changes are: - -- Support the exclusion of subfolders. -- Check and notify if updates are available. -- Decoupled GUI and sync daemon. -- Cleaned up the command line interface. Use `maestral start` instead of - `maestral daemon start` and `maestral start --foreground` instead of `maestral sync`. -- Bug fixes and performance improvements. - -Details are given below. - -#### Added: - -- Method to get the sync status of individual files or folders. This is also accessible - through the CLI via `maestral file-status LOCAL_PATH`. In the future, this could be - used by file manager plugins to overlay the sync status of files. -- Support to exclude subfolders in the main API, CLI and GUI. -- Added a command group `maestral excluded` to view and manage excluded folders. - Available commands are `add`, `remove` and `show`. -- For case-sensitive file systems: Automatically rename created items which have the - same name as an existing item, but with a different case. This avoids possible issues - on case-sensitive file systems since Dropbox itself is not case-sensitive. -- GUI notifications when a new version of Maestral is available, configurable to daily, - weekly, monthly or never. -- A new "Check for updates..." menu entry. -- Better integration with systemd: When the daemon is started from systemd, status - updates and ready / stopping signals are sent to systemd and the log is sent to the - journal instead of stdout. This requires the installation of the systemd extra as - `pip3 install -U maestral[systemd]`, which will install `sdnotify` and `systemd- - python`. The latter may require you install additional packages through your system's - package manager first. See [here](https://github.com/systemd/python-systemd) for - installation instructions. - -#### Changed: - -- Separated daemon and CLI code into different modules. -- Simplified CLI: - - Moved commands from `maestral daemon` to main command group, i.e., - `maestral daemon start` is now `maestral start`. - - Removed `maestral sync`. Use `maestral start --foreground` instead. -- GUI now uses only the main Maestral API which is exposed over sockets. -- Changed returned values of the Maestral API to Python types only for better - serialisation. -- GUI now starts its own daemon on demand or attaches to an existing one. This daemon - will run in a separate process, unless started from a macOS App bundle. -- Improved startup time for large folders: Moved indexing of local files after a restart - to the `upload_thread`. -- Sync engine moved to a submodule. -- Setup dialog no longer returns a Maestral instance on success but just ``True``. It - is up to the GUI to create or attach to a Maestral daemon. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixed an incorrect error being raised for a corrupted rev file, which could lead to a - crash or misleading error message. -- Fixed a bug which would cause a renamed file with a previously invalid name not to - sync to Dropbox. -- Fixed a bug in the GUI which would cause clicking on a recently changed file to reveal - the wrong item in the file manager. -- Fixed a bug which would cause the sync thread to crash when attempting to follow a - broken symlink (#50). Now, the error will be reported to the user as a sync issue. - Thanks to @michaelbjames for the fix. -- Fixes a bug where the Dropbox path is not reset when aborting the setup dialog. - -#### Removed: - -- Removed the CLI command `maestral sync`. Use `maestral start --foreground` instead. - - -## v0.3.2 - -This release fixes a bug that could result in only changes of top-level items being -synced. This affects users who carried out the initial linking with Maestral v0.2.5 or -later and selected to exclude folders before the first download. Users affected by this -should rebuild Maestral's index by selecting "Rebuild index..." in the main menu. - -Other improvements include expanded command line scripts with more useful output, minor -bug fixes and small tweaks to the UI. - -#### Added: - -- Added a "status" property to `maestral.main` which shows the last log message. -- Added a command group `maestral log` to view and clear the log as well set the logging - level. Commands are: - - `maestral log show`: Shows the logs in terminal. - - `maestral log clear`: Clears the logs. - - `maestral log level`: Returns the current log level. - - `maestral log level [DEBUG|INFO|WARNING|ERROR]`: Sets the log level to the given - value. Affects both stdout and file logs. -- Added an option "-a" to `maestral ls` to include hidden files. -- Added tooltips for system tray icon when not on macOS. - -#### Changed: - -- Made log levels persistent between sessions. -- Changed the name of `maestral list` to `maestral ls` and, by default, do not list - "hidden" items that start with a dot. Added an option "-a" to explicitly list all - files in a directory. -- Improved output from command line scripts: - - Wrap all long outputs in empty lines. - - Show more informative status. - - Show Dropbox folder location in account-info. - - Add colours to outputs like "[OK]" and "[FAILED]". -- Set minimum version requirement for click package. -- Reduced the startup time by downloading profile picture in a thread. Periodically - update in the background (every 20 min). -- Check hashes before uploading modified files. This speeds up re-linking an old folder - by orders of magnitude. -- Enable the creation of multiple autostart entries for different configurations. -- Fall back to PNG tray icons if the platform may not support our svg format. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixed a bug which would not allow running maestral for the first time before - explicitly adding a configuration with `maestral config new`. Now, a default - configuration is created automatically on first run. -- Prevent the GUI and a daemon from syncing the same folder at the same time. -- Fixed the creation of multiple daemons. A new daemon will no longer overwrite an old - one and `maestral daemon start` will do nothing if a daemon for the given - configuration is already running. -- Automatic allocation of ports for the communication between daemon and client. -- Show the (Dropbox) file path in the string representation of `MaestralApiError`. - Previously, one could not see from the traceback which file caused the error. -- Fixed a bug that would result in only changes of top-level items being synced. This - affects users who carrier out the initial linking with Maestral v0.2.5 or later - (commit 40be316b49f2198a01cc9ce9b804f8e6336e36f8) and selected to exclude folders - before the initial sync. Users affected by this bug should rebuild Maestral's index by - selecting "Rebuild index..." in the main menu. - -#### Removed: - -- No longer install a script "maestral-gui". Use "maestral gui" instead. - -## v0.3.1 - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes a bug when calling the command line script `maestral daemon errors`. This bug - was the result of an error in pickling our MaestralApiExceptions (see - [https://bugs.python.org/issue1692335#msg310951](https://bugs.python.org/issue1692335#msg310951) - for a discussion). - -## v0.3.0 - -This release includes several significant changes. The largest are: - -1) Support for multiple Dropbox accounts (via the command line) -2) A Maestral daemon for the command line -3) A redesigned settings window with more prominent account information - -The detailed list of changes is: - -#### Added: - -- Maestral can now be started as a daemon from the command line. A new command group - `maestral daemon` has been introduced to manage this. -- Added support for custom Dropbox folder names. The folder name must be set with the - command line scripts. -- Added a new command group `maestral config` to manage multiple Maestral configurations - for different Dropbox accounts. -- Added a new command line option `--config-name` or `-c` to select the configuration - file to use. -- Improved grouping and naming of command line scripts. -- Added a "relink" dialog which is shown when Maestral's Dropbox access has expired or - has been revoked by the user. -- Improved logic to detect system tray color and set icons accordingly. This is mostly - for KDE which, unlike Gnome, does not handle automatically adapting its tray icon - colours. - -#### Changed: - -- Animated setup dialog. -- Redesigned the settings window to show more prominent account information. -- Improved command line and GUI flows for setting or moving the Dropbox folder location. -- Moved to an Implicit Grant OAuth2 flow. This does not require an app secret to be - stored in the client source code. Maestral will therefore no longer require the user - to get their own API keys or to use the precompiled oauth binaries hosted on PyPI. -- Improved the user massages given by command line scripts. -- Improved status messages given in RebuildIndexDialog. -- Unified and improved the creation of QThreads by the GUI to perform background tasks. - This fixes an issue with occasional segfaults RebuildIndexDialog and improves the - reliability of the UI. -- Started to work on providing a top-level API in `Maestral` for all functionality that - is required by the UI. There should be no need to interact with `Monitor` or - `UpDownSync` directly for high-level functionality. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixed a crash on startup if the Meastral's Dropbox access has expired or has been - revoked. -- Fixed handling of `ListFolder` errors. Those will only occur when the user gives an - incorrect folder name to list and will (hopefully) never be caused my Maestral itself. - -## v0.2.6 - -This release fixes a critical bug which would cause Maestral to get stuck after the -initial sync. This does not affect users who have already performed the initial sync -with a previous version of Maestral. - -#### Added: - -- Added a context menu entry to the "Sync issues" window to show a file on dropbox.com. - -#### Changed: - -- Move logs to '$XDG_CACHE_HOME/maestral' on Linux and '~/Library/Logs/maestral' on - macOS. -- Reduce the number of Dropbox API calls during initial sync. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixed a bug which would cause Maestral to get stuck after the initial download. -- Fixes an issue in macOS where modal dialogs in the settings window would sometimes - appear behind the window instead of in front of it. - -## v0.2.5 - -This release fixes several sync issues which could occur when the internet connection is -lost during a sync. It also notifies the user if Maestral's access to their Dropbox has -been revoked. - -#### Added: - -- Handle expired or invalidated Dropbox access. -- Ask the user before overriding an existing folder in the setup dialog. -- Added status updates for large file uploads (e.g., "Uploading 10/545MB..."). - -#### Changed: - -- Significant speedup of initial indexing. Excluded folders or subfolders will no - longer be indexed. -- Save config files in the systems default location: '$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/maestral' or - '.config/maestral' in Linux and '~/Library/Application Support/maestral' on macOS. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixed a false "Dropbox folder cannot be found" message which would appear when - quitting and restarting Maestral during the first sync. Now, the initial download is - quietly resumed when relaunching Maestral. -- Fixed an issue where an interrupted upload would not resume without restarting - Maestral. -- Fixed an issue where file changes while "offline" would sometimes not be synced to - Dropbox when a connection is reestablished. -- Fixed an issue where errors from `requests` would inadvertently get caught instead of - being raised. - -## v0.2.4 - -This version mainly improves the appearance and responsiveness of the GUI specifically -on Linux platforms with a Gnome desktop. It also introduces a dialog to handle a deleted -or moved Dropbox folder. - -#### Added: - -- Added a "Select all" option when choosing which folders to sync. -- Handle deleted or moved Dropbox folder in setup dialog. -- Handle deleted or moved Dropbox folder while Maestral is running. - -#### Changed: - -- Improved performance of the GUI on some Gnome systems in case of many rapid status - changes. -- Show system tray icon already during the setup dialog. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixed size of the system tray icon in Gnome desktops with high-DPI scaling. -- Fixed a bug which would result in an error dialog being shown for "normal" sync errors - such as an invalid file name. -- Fixed missing line-breaks in the traceback shown by the error dialog. -- Updated console scripts to reflect changes in MaestralMonitor and MaestralApiClient. - -## v0.2.3 - -This release mainly fixes crashes of the setup dialog and contains tweaks to the UI. - -#### Changed: - -- Launch into setup dialog if no Dropbox authentication token can be found in keychain. -- Only log messages of level ERROR or higher to file. -- Show account email in the system tray menu above space usage. -- Unified the code for error dialogs and added an app icon to all dialogs. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixed a bug which could could result in the user being asked to re-authenticate when - no Dropbox folder is detected on startup. -- Fixed a bug which could cause Maestral to crash during the setup dialog, immediately - after user authentication. - -## v0.2.2 - -#### Added: - -- Added support for file and folder names with two or more periods. -- Temporary autosave files that are created by macOS are now detected by their extension - and excluded from syncing. -- More fine-grained errors, subclassed from `MaestralApiError`. -- Log all events of level INFO and higher to a rotating file in '~/.maestral/logs'. The - log folder size will never exceed 6 MB. - -#### Changed: - -- Better handling when Dropbox resets a cursor: retry any `files_list_folder` calls and - prompt the user to rebuild the index on `files_list_folder_longpoll` calls. -- Prepare for G-suite Dropbox integration: G-suite files such as Google docs and sheets - will not be downloadable but can only be exported. Maestral will ignore such files. -- Moved deprecated API calls to v2. -- Better handling of `OSErrors` on download. -- Tweaks to logo. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixed a bug which would prevent some error dialogs from being shown to the user. -- Fixed a bug which would cause the setup dialog to crash after linking to Dropbox. - -## v0.2.1 - -#### Changed: - -- Reload all file and folder icons when the system appearance changes: the system may - provide different icons (e.g., darker folder icons in "dark mode" on macOS Mojave). -- Improved notification centre alerts in macOS: when installed as a bundled app, - notifications are now properly sent from the Maestral itself, showing the Maestral - icon, instead of through apple script. -- Improved layout of the "Rebuild index" dialog. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes a bug which would prevent Meastral from starting on login: the correct startup - script is now called. - -## v0.2.0 - -#### Major changes - -#### Added: - -- Proper handling of sync errors. Dropbox API errors are converted to a more informative - `MaestralApiError` and a log of sync errors is kept. This log is cleared as sync - errors are resolved. Errors are now handled as follows: - - Individual file sync errors are indicated by the system tray icon changing. The - can listed by the user through the GUI. - - Unexpected errors or major errors which prevent Maestral from functioning (e.g., - a corrupted index) trigger an error dialog. - -- Introduced a new panel "View Sync Issues..." to show an overview of sync issues and - their cause (invalid file name, insufficient space on Dropbox, etc...) -- Added a new function to rebuild Maestral's file index which is accessible through the - GUI. -- Added "Recently Changed Files" submenu to the system tray menu. "Recently Changed - Files" shows entries for the 30 last-changed files (synced folders only) and navigates - to the respective file in the default file manager when an entry is clicked. - -#### Changed: - -- Refactored sync code: Collected all sync functionality in a the new class - `monitor.UpDownSync`. `MaestralClient` now only handles access to the Dropbox API - itself but is no longer concerned with version tracking, etc. `MaestralClient` no - longer catches Dropbox API errors but raises them, augmented with useful information, - as `MaestralApiError`. -- Moved storage of user authentication tokens from a text file to the system keyring. As a - result, authentication tokens will be encrypted on the hard drive and only decrypted - when the user logs in. On some systems, this may cause problems in headless mode, when - the Gnome keyring is not loaded. The - [keyring documentation](https://keyring.readthedocs.io/en/latest/#using-keyring-on-headless-linux-systems) - provides help for such cases. - -#### Minor changes - -#### Added: - -- Added progress messages for uploads and downloads, e.g., "Downloading 3/98...". These - are output as info messages and shown in the status field of the system tray menu. -- When unlinking your Dropbox account through the GUI, Maestral is restarted to enter the - setup dialog. -- Refinements for dark interface themes such as Dark Mode in macOS Mojave - -#### Changed: - -- Use native system icons instead of macOS icons to represent files and folders. -- Some programs save file changes by deleting the old file and creating a new file. This - is now correctly combined to a single `FileModified` event. -- Some programs create temporary files when saving changes. Those temporary files are - deleted again after the save is completed. Those `FileCreated` and `FileDeleted` - events, which occur in quick succession, are now ignored by Maestral. -- The following file names have been added to the exclusion list: - - Files that start with "\~$" or ".~" - - Files that start with "~" and end with ".tmp" -- Cleaned up some of the config module code: removed Spyder specific functions and - obsolete Python 2 compatibility. -- Adapted code to correctly load resources in case Maestral is packaged as a macOS app - bundle. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixed a bug which may result in a removed folder not being deleted locally if it - contains subfolders. -- Fixed a bug which may result in file modifications not being uploaded, depending on - how the changes were saved by the program which was used to edit the file. -- Fixed a bug which would incorrectly list top level files as folders in the "Exclude - folders" dialog. -- Truncate entries in the "Recently Changed Files" menu if their width exceeds 200 - pixels. -- Fixed a bug which would cause Maestral to crash when clicking "Choose folders to - sync..." while Maestral cannot connect to Dropbox servers. - -## v0.1.2 - -#### Added: - -- Added new command line option 'autostart' to automatically start Maestral on login. - -#### Changed: - -- Limit notifications to remote changes only and only notify for changes in folders that - currently being synced, unless more than 100 files have changed. -- Detect colour of system tray and invert icon colour automatically if not on macOS. -- Shut down immediately and kill threads instead of waiting for timeout. -- Improve appearance of Settings window in GTK 3 style. - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixed a bug which would cause uploads to fail if they are split into multiple chunks. -- Fixed a bug that would prevent Maestral from quitting if the setup dialog is aborted. -- Fixed a bug that would cause Maestral to crash during the setup dialog when switching - multiple times between the "Select Folders to Sync" and "Select Dropbox location" - panels. -- Do not upload files that have identical content on Dropbox. Previously: files were - always uploaded and conflict checking was left to do by the Dropbox server. - -## v0.1.1 - -#### Fixed: - -- Fixes an issue which would prevent newly created empty folders from being synced. -- Remove references to conda in startup script. +See `maestral` changelog for release notes. @@ -2,8 +2,8 @@ # Contributor: Batuhan Baserdem <lastname dot firstname at gmail> pkgname=maestral-qt -pkgver=1.5.3 -pkgrel=2 +pkgver=1.6.0 +pkgrel=1 pkgdesc='Qt interface for Maestral' arch=('any') url="https://github.com/SamSchott/maestral-qt" @@ -13,12 +13,12 @@ depends=( 'python-click' 'python-markdown2' 'python-packaging' - 'python-pyqt5') + 'python-pyqt6') optdepends=('gnome-shell-extension-appindicator: Gnome integration') -makedepends=('python-build' 'python-installer' 'python-wheel') +makedepends=('python-setuptools' 'python-build' 'python-installer' 'python-wheel') changelog=CHANGELOG.md source=("$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz::$url/archive/v$pkgver.tar.gz") -sha256sums=('d8f85c1cc3e5449f494c81f490997d6b4c300c3829b7a4ee5c1841cdc718a3f5') +sha256sums=('3814d0d8d9c16a9b584f6a26ac4c12f1a7332e85732b320ed2f14bd4702b7641') build() { cd "$pkgname-$pkgver" @@ -29,5 +29,10 @@ package() { export PYTHONHASHSEED=0 cd "$pkgname-$pkgver" python -m installer --destdir="$pkgdir/" dist/*.whl - install -Dm644 LICENSE.txt "$pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname/LICENSE" + + local _site="$(python -c 'import site; print(site.getsitepackages()[0])')" + install -d "$pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname/" + ln -s \ + "$_site/maestral_qt-$pkgver.dist-info/LICENSE.txt" \ + "$pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname/LICENSE" } |
