An upload while writing is now a file node of the document, through
POST /nodes/{id}/files, instead of a loose row of media that only the media
browser listed. It moves, seals, goes to the trash and comes back with the
document. Migration 0029 gives every embedded upload that had no node a
place under the document that embeds it (a living one before a trashed
one), keeping its media id, so no body changes; the sealed-folder triggers
now ask a document's folder for the files under it.
- nodes: `holds` and `place_for` say what may go where; a document holds
files and nothing else, in moves, uploads and restores from the trash.
A loaded document carries its files and whether its folder seals them.
- seal: a document moving into a sealed folder seals its files first.
- media: POST /media, GET /media and DELETE /media/{id} are gone, and with
them MediaBrowser and :media.
- import: `plan/` beside `plan.md` comes back as the document's files, the
shape export writes; an older export's media/ goes to the first document
that embeds each file.
- sftp: a document's files are `<slug>/` beside its `.md`, listed once it
has any, holding files only, moving with the `.md`.
- web: paste, drop and :upload while reading go to the document; the info
sheet has a files section (Enter opens, i embeds, y copies how); the list
shows +N on a document, za folds its files open, p drops marked files in.
Every overlay is drawn in Sheet.svelte: the header, the close button, the
footer of keys and the list cursor kept on screen, written once instead of
in ten copies. Overlays open and close through openSheet and closeSheet.
The outline, history and backlinks sheets and the share bar are one info
sheet with a part for each, Tab between them. gi opens it, gO, gh and gb open
it at their part, and so does a click on the line under the title. The
buttons in the document header are gone; the meta line says when the
document is public, and a phone gets edit and info under the text.
Three small things the docs pass turned up.
A search of nothing but punctuation — `!!!`, `--` — gave the FTS query no
terms, and the list handler then fell through to browsing with no parent,
which answered with the spaces as if they were matches. It now finds nothing.
Two spaces could have the same name: the slug was made unique (`work-2`) but
the name kept, so the bar showed two pills that read alike and `:space work`
picked the first. A new space, a space renamed, and a directory made at the
root of the mount are refused when another space has that name in any case or
that slug. Folders and documents may still share names; they are told apart by
where they sit.
A name had no ceiling. A file is called by its name on the mount, where most
filesystems stop at 255 bytes, so a document, folder, file or space is now at
most 200 characters, checked where one is made or renamed.
The README grew a section per feature and is a good reference, but nothing
said where to begin. docs/wiki now has a getting-started page, a guide that
walks through one day with the workspace and explains each part where it comes
up, and a page per part of the app, each with screenshots of what it
describes.
Three pages are read out of the code rather than written, so they cannot drift
from it: the keys and commands from Help.svelte and commands.ts, the same lists
`:help` draws; the settings from .env.example, which gains a heading for the
vault, trash and history settings so they no longer sit under mail; and the
API from the README's table. `make wiki` writes them, and `--check` fails when
one is stale or a link between pages leads nowhere. `--publish` lays the pages
out for a GitHub wiki: links without `.md`, images beside them, `[[` escaped so
the wiki does not take a command's help text for a link to a page.
The screenshots are taken by `make screenshots`: the debug binary on a
temporary data directory, with a password made up for the run, filled with an
example workspace over the API, and a headless Chromium driven over the
DevTools protocol through the views the docs show. Nothing outside the
temporary directory is touched but docs/images, and the pictures are cut to
256 colours, a third of their size, which a dark UI does not show.
The README opens with the banner, a CI badge, the guide, the features grouped
by what they are for, and six of the screenshots.
