Replace the GPL-3.0 license text with the full GNU Affero General
Public License v3.0 text, strengthening copyleft coverage for the
network-service use case (users interacting with Bookhoard over the
network are entitled to the corresponding source).
- LICENSE: swap GPL-3.0 text for the canonical AGPL-3.0 text (gnu.org)
- README.md: update both license references (Project Status and
License sections) from GPL-3.0 to AGPL-3.0
- docs/user/sync-guide.md: update the footer license reference
The bundled BSD 3-Clause license in internal/sevenzip/LICENSE is a
third-party dependency license and is intentionally left unchanged.
Admin:
- Admin pages live in the sidebar's Administration panel (Dashboard,
Libraries, Hash Conflicts, Users, Settings)
- Library creation is the Create Library modal (Library Name,
Description, Library Type); folders are added afterwards by expanding
the library row and using the Folders section's path input + Browse +
Add — the old Add Library modal with folder and 'Scan on save' fields
no longer exists
- Scanning is via the Scanner API or watch mode (File Watcher status on
the admin dashboard); remove references to the removed per-library
Rescan button and 'Force Rescan' option
Collections:
- Fill in the empty creating/managing placeholders with the real flow:
New Collection button, modal fields (name, description, icon grid,
color swatches), per-collection edit/delete icon buttons, Restore
System button, and dashboard-section visibility via Customize
Dashboard
Dashboard:
- Customize Dashboard is opened from the icon button at the right end
of the Library bar (next to Refresh), and requires a specific library
selected rather than 'All Libraries'
- Library switching uses the Library dropdown in the bar below the top
bar (includes 'All Libraries' with counts)
- Collection sections are shown/hidden from the Customize Dashboard
toggles — the per-collection 'Show on Dashboard' setting is gone
- Mention the hover chevrons for scrolling carousels
Bookshelf:
- Saved filters: document the new toolbar buttons — Filters (opens the
filter drawer with Apply Filters, Esc, and overlay-click close), Save,
Load (Saved Filters dropdown with trash-icon delete), and Clear —
replacing the emoji-labelled Save Filter / Saved Filters buttons
- Tag filtering: filters now live behind the Filters drawer on the All
Books page
- Theme switching lives in the sidebar's Appearance panel (palette
icon): swatch list with a checkmark on the active theme, and the
'Bookshelf' section below it for wood textures; on small screens the
sidebar opens via the top-bar menu button
- Profile: account menu is the username accordion at the bottom of the
sidebar (not top-right); save button is 'Save Changes'
- Remove Wood Light/Dark/Mahogany from the Available Themes list (they
are bookshelf backgrounds, not color themes) and consolidate the
Catppuccin variants
The new-ui redesign replaced the top header with a sidebar and removed
the Settings pages.
- Replace all 'Settings → Devices' paths with the Devices page in the
sidebar
- Conflicts are resolved from the book detail page's Sync Progress
button or the Conflicts page (/conflicts); drop the nonexistent
'Settings → Conflicts' path
- Queue status and unlinked-book references no longer invent per-device
button paths that don't exist on the Devices page
- Reading history now points to the Progress page / book detail
- Export FAQ no longer references a Settings → Export flow that isn't
in the UI
- sync-guide: only Web and KOReader are fully supported; move Kobo to
coming soon, drop fake Q2-Q4 2026 release dates for mobile/Kindle/
Remarkable, and describe the plugin + server-approval registration
flow instead of QR-code/URL approval
- sync-guide: remove cellular/mobile-app advice from battery and
best-practice sections, correct the Calibre compatibility FAQ, update
the changelog to reflect shipped vs. pending sync features, and fix
the license header (GPL-3.0, not MIT)
- user-guide: lead device setup with KOReader; mark the Kobo guide as
coming soon
- calibre-integration: OPDS client list no longer implies native Kobo
support
- auth overview: label the mobile-application token guidance as
'coming later' since no mobile apps exist yet
Native Kobo sync is implemented server-side but not yet supported on
real devices, so stop documenting it as a working feature.
- Rewrite kobo-setup.md as a coming-soon stub: point users to KOReader
(which runs on Kobo hardware) as the supported path today, and list
what native sync will deliver when released
- Add 'Coming Soon' status banners to the Kobo protocol spec, all five
Kobo endpoint docs, and both API references, noting the endpoints are
under active development and may change
- Tag the device shelf endpoints as pending native Kobo support
Replace the outdated Calibre-wireless/Basic-Auth instructions with the
actual current flow: install the bookhoard.koplugin plugin, enter the
server URL in the plugin menu, then approve the pending registration
from Settings → Devices. Registration tokens are delivered to the
plugin automatically after approval (5-minute expiry), so no
credentials are ever typed on the device.
Also document bidirectional sync of position, bookmarks, highlights
(colors mapped between web and KOReader palettes), and notes, plus
format-aware SHA-256 book matching, OPDS delivery, and trimmed
troubleshooting sections covering the new registration flow.
- Add comprehensive API documentation for tags_filter parameter
- Document fuzzy matching behavior with examples
- Add user guide for tag-based filtering
- Document backward compatibility with genre_filter
- Include examples of fuzzy matching ("Sci Fi" → "Science Fiction")
Provides complete documentation for the new tags filter feature,
including API reference and user-facing documentation.
Relates to IMPLEMENTATION_TAGS_FILTER.md Phase 7
Add comprehensive documentation for GET /api/saved-filters/:id endpoint
including Bruno API collection, developer API docs, user documentation,
and implementation plan with frontend integration phase.
Bruno API Collection (bruno/saved-filters/Get Saved Filter By ID.yml):
- New Bruno request file for GET /:id endpoint
- Includes comprehensive documentation with examples
- Documents all status codes (200, 400, 401, 404)
- Provides example curl commands and use cases
- Uses variable placeholders ({{base_url}}, {{filter_id}})
- Follows existing Bruno YAML patterns
API Documentation (docs/developer/api/saved-filters/index.md):
- Added GET /api/saved-filters/:id endpoint documentation
- Example request with UUID parameter
- Example response showing filter object structure
- Error responses documented (400, 401, 404)
- Use cases: Mobile apps, SPAs, editing, verification
User Documentation (docs/user/library-browsing.md):
- Updated "Loading Saved Filters" section
- Removed "feature coming soon" language
- Added step-by-step instructions for loading filters
- Added tips section with visual indicators
- Added "Managing Saved Filters" section
- Added "Common Use Cases" (genre, author, series)
- Emphasizes instant feedback (no page reload)
Implementation Plan (GET_SAVED_FILTER_BY_ID_IMPLEMENTATION.md):
- Added Phase 7: User Documentation Update
- Added Phase 8: Frontend Integration (bookshelf.ts)
- Shows loadFilter() implementation
- Hybrid Alpine.js + HTMX approach
- Maintains SSR-first principles
- API call on user interaction, not page load
- Populates hidden form fields
- Triggers HTMX to apply filter
- Updated Summary of Changes: 7 files, ~344 lines
- Updated Checklist with frontend and user docs tasks
- Added frontend testing tasks
SSR-First Compliance:
- Initial page load: Server renders everything (no API calls)
- User interaction only: API called when user clicks filter
- No async x-init data fetching
- Progressive enhancement maintained
Documentation Structure:
- Developer docs: API reference for integration
- User docs: Step-by-step usage instructions
- Bruno: API contract testing
- Implementation plan: Complete development guide
All documentation follows established patterns and includes examples.
- Document all available color themes with descriptions
- Explain wood paneling feature and available textures
- Provide step-by-step instructions for changing themes
- Add tips for theme/texture pairing
Add documentation for delete_user and reset_user_password endpoints.
Update update_profile to reflect consolidated endpoint. Remove obsolete
documentation for individual update operations. Add profile guide for
end-users. Update API_CONSOLIDATION_PLAN.md with implementation status.
Major architectural improvements:
1. Add generic /api/dashboard/sections JSON endpoint
- Created internal/handlers/dashboard.go (new file)
- Created internal/router/dashboard.go (new file)
- Single source of truth for web UI, mobile apps, plugins
- Follows existing handler/router pattern
2. Update DashboardService to apply user preferences
- GetSectionItems() now accepts sectionOrder and hiddenSections
- filterHiddenSections() removes user's hidden sections
- reorderSections() applies user's custom order
- Ensures consistent behavior across all clients
3. Separate concerns properly
- API handlers in internal/handlers/dashboard.go
- SSR routes remain in internal/router/frontend.go
- Both use same DashboardService (single source of truth)
4. Reorganize implementation phases
- Phase 1-3: Database, service, queries
- Phase 4-6: Handler, router, frontend routes
- Phase 7-9: Templates and settings
- Phase 10-11: TypeScript modules
- Phase 12-13: Documentation and testing
5. Add documentation
- docs/developer/api/dashboard.md (API reference)
- docs/user/dashboard.md (user guide)
6. Bruno tests already exist
- bruno/dashboard/ has 5 comprehensive test files
- Three-context testing (no user, user, admin)
- No additional tests needed
Benefits:
- Uniform dashboard across web, mobile, plugins
- Single source of truth (no duplicate logic)
- User preferences respected by all clients
- Follows established project patterns
- Comprehensive test coverage
Timeline: Updated to reflect 13 phases (19-25 days total with TypeScript)
- Replace username/password authentication with API key in sync URL
- Update configuration examples to show API key in URL path
- Add instructions for copying API key from Device Management
- Update OPDS catalog URL to include token parameter
- Fix troubleshooting section for API key authentication
- Document where to find API key and sync URL in UI
- Update SSL/TLS examples with API key approach
- Renamed root INDEX.md to index.md (lowercase)
- Changed navigation title from "Documentation Index" to "Index"
- Removed caps lock for cleaner appearance
- Renamed subdirectory INDEX.md files to section-specific names:
- user/INDEX.md → user/user-guide.md
- developer/INDEX.md → developer/development.md
- operations/INDEX.md → operations/operations.md
- contributing/INDEX.md → contributing/contributing.md
- developer/api/INDEX.md → developer/api/api-reference.md
- developer/api/collections/INDEX.md → developer/api/collections/collections-api.md
- Updated all internal links to use new filenames
- Updated navigation.go to skip subdirectory INDEX files from sidebar
- Added Dockerfile to include docs directory in container build
This fixes the issue where multiple 'INDEX' links appeared in the sidebar,
making navigation confusing. Now each section has a descriptive name.
BREAKING CHANGE: Documentation URLs have changed
New structure:
- user/ - End-user documentation (device setup, sync guides, frontend)
- developer/ - Developer documentation (API reference, protocols, specs)
- operations/ - Operations documentation (deployment, troubleshooting)
- contributing/ - Contribution guides
Changes:
- Created portal INDEX.md files for each audience section
- Moved device guides to user/devices/ (kobo-setup.md, koreader-setup.md)
- Moved API docs to developer/ (api-reference.md, collections-api.md)
- Moved sync guide to user/sync-guide.md
- Moved troubleshooting to operations/troubleshooting.md
- Moved all split API docs to developer/api/
- Renamed protocol files (kobo-protocol.md, koreader-protocol.md)
- Added placeholder user guides (frontend, user-areas, settings, admin)
- Updated all internal links to new paths
- Updated Go code (http_handler.go, navigation.go) for new paths
- Updated main INDEX.md for audience-based navigation
Benefits:
- Clear separation of user and developer documentation
- Scalable structure for future user guide expansion
- Better organization and discoverability
- Audience-specific landing pages
