Write results of update script to file for debugging The update script now writes the available instances to a .update-results* file (where previous runs have "-prev" appended to the file name). This helps to see how instance availability changes between runs of the script when debugging overall functionality of the app. 2021-10-22 18:07:59 -06:00

Preserve redirect with `/_/` path prefix (#13) This adds a straightforward way of preserving Farside's redirecting behavior in the user's browser history. That way if an instance becomes unavailable between the 5 min scans, the user can opt to navigate back one page and be taken to a new instance. This is accomplished using a single line of JS, and could potentially work as the default behavior of Farside (with the current default behavior requiring a path prefix instead). This should be revisited down the road when more people are using this service. 2022-01-27 11:57:41 -07:00

Auto select frontend for links to "parent" service Farside now supports redirecting based on a provided link to a "parent" service, if such a parent service is supported. For example, a link such as: farside.link/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ will now redirect to any of the available YouTube related frontends. This works by matching against a mapping of "parent" service domains ("youtube.com", "reddit.com", etc) to a list of their respective frontend alternatives (["invidious", "piped"], ["libreddit", "teddit"], etc). A random element is chosen from this list, and the remainder of Farside's routing logic proceeds as if the user had chosen the service directly to begin with.

Remove Redis dep, replace w/ native Elixir lib This removes the dependency on Redis for core app functionality. Rather than using the key/value store provided by Redis, Farside now uses a key/val store provided by [cubdb](https://github.com/lucaong/cubdb) for identical functionality but without reliance on a non-Elixir service. This solution was chosen instead of ets, because storing instance data in memory leads to a period of broken functionality whenever the app restarts and hasn't re-populated instance data yet. It was also chosen instead of dets, because the documentation for dets was pretty hard to understand at first glance. Tests and the CI build were updated to reflect the removed dependency on Redis. New environment variable `FARSIDE_DATA_DIR` can be used to point to a directory where the instance data can be stored by cubdb.
