This is a major feature that builds upon the `Messenger` interface
that has been in listmonk since its inception (with SMTP as the only
messenger). This commit introduces a new Messenger implementation, an
HTTP "postback", that can post campaign messages as a standard JSON
payload to arbitrary HTTP servers. These servers can in turn push them
to FCM, SMS, or any or any such upstream, enabling listmonk to be a
generic campaign messenger for any type of communication, not just
e-mails.
Postback HTTP endpoints can be defined in settings and they can be
selected on campaigns.
Example given for CSV import on Import.vue is incorrect since
field `attributes` value is not a valid JSON. Previous example
copy pasted was throwing CSV parse error.
- A check for new versions on the GitHub releases pages happens
once every 24 hours. When a new version is available, a notice
is displayed on the admin UI.
- Add missing `app.root_url` key in migration.
- Register `/settings` handler in the backend.
- Add dummy dots in secret fields on the UI for visibility.
- Added as a setting in the settings UI.
- Refactor Messenger.Push() method to accept messenger.Message{}
instead of a growing number of positional arguments.
- Change global font to Inter.
- Introduce global top nav bar.
- Restyle form inputs to have inline labels.
- Restyle form inputs to have inline lengt counters.
- Override glitchy Buefy animations (sidebar, toast etc.)
- Fix tag alignment inside tables in responsive view.
- Refactor import page UI.
- Miscellaneous styling fixes.
- Add missing Fontello icons.
This is a major breaking change that moves away from having the
entire app configuration in external TOML files to settings being
in the database with a UI to update them dynamically.
The app loads all config into memory (app settings, SMTP conf)
on boot. "Hot" replacing them is complex and it's a fair tradeoff
to instead just restart the application as it is practically
instant.
A new `settings` table stores arbitrary string keys with a JSONB
value field which happens to support arbitrary types. After every
settings update, the app gracefully releases all resources
(HTTP server, DB pool, SMTP pool etc.) and restarts itself,
occupying the same PID. If there are any running campaigns, the
auto-restart doesn't happen and the user is prompted to invoke
it manually with a one-click button once all running campaigns
have been paused.
Instead of using a response transformer, move the global response
JSON transformation (snake case to camel case) to the pre-existing
response interceptor. Also, fix the `data.data` and `data`
discrepancy in responses.
- Fix path related issues in filesystem and S3.
- Add checks for S3 "/" path prefix.
- Add support for custom S3 domain names.
- Remove obsolete `width` and `height` columns from media table (breaking)
- Add `provider` field to media table (breaking)
- antd+react was resulting in extremely clunky and unreadable
spaghetti frontend code (primarily due to how antd is).
- Buefy is lighter by an order of magnitude, has excellent
responsive views (especially tables) and usability.
- Vue's templating produces far more readable template code.
