Changelog
0.6.1 - 2022-10-14
Added
- Added support for parsing/handling new Tahoe-LAFS and Magic-Folder "pidfiles" -- thanks @meejah! (PR #569)
Changed
- Logs for Gridsync, Tahoe-LAFS, and Magic-Folder will now persist on disk instead of being buffered into memory (Issue #564; PR #570)
- PyInstaller has been updated to version 5.5 (Issue #561; PR #575)
- Gridsync will now apply new connection-related settings for grids that were previously joined via a "cheat code" (e.g.,
0-hro-cloud) during start-up, making it possible for some out-of-date grid-configurations (i.e., Least Authority's "HRO Cloud", as per #576) to be updated in conjunction with Gridsync itself (Issue #504; PR #578)
Fixed
- The grid-configuration for Least Authority's "HRO Cloud" has been updated in response to a failing storage node, allowing users of the service to re-connect once again (PR #576) -- thanks @jehadbaeth!

Changed
- Binary distributions of Gridsync will now ship with Tahoe-LAFS version 1.17.1 and Magic-Folder 22.8.0 (PR #519)
- Added proper PyInstaller hooks for
twisted.plugins, preventing the need to patchallmydata.storage_clientat buildtime (PR #403) -- thanks @tomprince - The Magic-Folder API port will now be determined by reading the newly-added
api_client_endpointfile instead of parsing stdout (Issue #412; PR #416) - Updated Recovery Key creation behavior/UX slightly (Issue #405; PR #420):
- Users of ZKAPAuthorizer-enabled grids will now be prompted to create a Recovery Key immediately after successfully redeeming a batch of ZKAPs and creating a rootcap
- Users who have not previously created a Recovery Key will now be prompted to do so (once per session)
- Confirmation buttons ("Cancel", "Save...") have been added to the password dialog
- Labels pertaining to Recovery Key-related actions have been updated throughout the UI:
- "Export Recovery Key" has been updated/renamed to "Create Recovery Key"
- "Import Recovery" has been updated/renamed to "Restore from Recovery Key"
- During start up, a "Loading..." label will now be shown under the Storage-Time view instead of temporarily displaying a storage-time balance of 0 (Issue #423; PR #424) -- thanks @exarkun!
- Bundled
tahoeandmagic-folderexecutables will now be prepended with the application name (e.g., "Gridsync-tahoe.exe" instead of "tahoe.exe") in order to more clearly distinguish process names managed by Gridsync (Issue #422; PR #426) - The Storage-Time view now explicitly states (via a text label) that folders can be added while a voucher is being redeemed (Issue #427; PR #436)
- On Windows and macOS, the
certifipackage will now be used for TLS verification (Issues #441, #459; PRs #442, #460) - The Tahoe-LAFS and Magic-Folder binaries included with Gridsync are now python3-only and utilize PyInstaller's "multipackage bundles" feature, drastically reducing the overall filesize of the Gridsync application bundle (Issue #432; PR #433)
- Users of ZKAPAuthorizer-enabled storage-grids will now receive a warning/confirmation dialog about lease-renewal upon exiting the application (PR #445)
- Debug log messages are now timezone-aware (Issue #447; PR #450)

- Replaced usage of
inlineCallbacks/yieldwithasync/awaitsyntax in several modules (Issues #520, #522, #523, #527; PRs #521, #524, #526, #529) -- thanks @exarkun! - The Recovery Key subsystem has been changed in order to safeguard against simultaneous writers (Issue #449; PR #544):
- Recovery Keys will now contain the read-only form of the rootcap capability (rather than the read-write capability)
- Restoring from a Recovery Key will now always create a new (read-write) rootcap, copying the contents of the old/imported rootcap into it
- Note: This change -- along with PR #499 -- breaks compatibility with older Recovery Keys; users updating from an older version will need to re-create a Recovery Key

Changelog
0.4.3 - 2020-07-24
Added
- Basic support for fetching and displaying "newscap" messages; see
docs/proposed/newscaps.md(Issue #184; PR #192, #211) - Notification "badges" will now be displayed over the system tray icon to indicate unread newscap messages (Issue #226, PR #227)
- The application menu -- normally accessible by right-clicking the system tray icon -- is now also always accessible via a button in the status panel (Issue #201, PR #202)
- Clicking a desktop notification on Windows will now activate the main window (Issue #209; PR #210)
- macOS Mojave's "dark mode" is now supported (Issue #213, PR #217; Issue #267, PR #287)
- Added support for "cross-compiling" Gridsync binaries via Vagrant/VirtualBox; see
README.rst(Issue #230, PR #231) - Gridsync AppImages are now available for GNU/Linux (Issue #245, PR #246, #248, #253)
- macOS builds have been notarized (Issue #261, PR #278)
- An optional "default" grid-connection/configuration can now be specified via
config.txt, facilitating custom deployments that omit "invite code"-based configuration (PR #292) - It is now possible to disable some features at runtime by modifying
config.txt(PR #293)
Changed
- Binary distributions of Gridsync will now ship with Python version 3.7 (Issue #175; PR #187)
- The "remove" folder action and subsequent confirmation dialog have been re-framed/updated to "stop syncing" instead. In addition, removing/stopping a folder will now unlink it from the user's rootcap/Recovery Key by default (i.e., unless the user checks the accompanying checkbox to "keep a backup copy of this folder on $GridName") (Issue #183, PR #190)
- Various scripts, configurations, and operations relating to the Gridsync CI/testing/build process have been updated and improved, slightly reducing at least one developer's growing frustrations with Travis-CI and buildbot (PR #188)
- Twisted's
reactor.spawnProcesswill now be used for runningtahoesubprocesses on Windows, instead of threadedsubprocess.Popencalls (Issue #176, PR #195) - GNU/Linux and Windows binary distributions will now use and ship with (Py)Qt version 5.15 (while macOS will use and ship 5.14, due to outstanding upstream bugs) (Issues #276, #267, #298; PRs #277, #287, #299)
- Due to ending upstream support and binary incompatibily with Qt 5.12, Debian 8 ("Jessie") and Ubuntu 14.04 ("Trusty Tahr") are no longer supported. Users running Debian 8 or Ubuntu 14.04 will need to upgrade their operating systems or build/install Gridsync from source (via
make) (PR #196) - High-DPI scaling (via Qt5's
AA_EnableHighDpiScalingattribute) has been enabled on all platforms/environments (except for Qubes-OS and MATE -- see #204). In addition, font- and pixmap-scaling has been improved (Issue #193, #198, #232; PR #199, #203, #204, #233) - The "Open Gridsync" menu action will now also un-minimize and re-focus the window in the event that it is already open (Issue #205; PR #206)
- Desktop notifications for connection/disconnection events are now disabled by default (Issue #218, PR #219)
- Binary distributions of Gridsync will now ship with Tahoe-LAFS version 1.14.0
- Python 3.5 support has been dropped; Gridsync now requires Python version 3.6 or higher (Issue #243, PR #244)
- Users are no longer required to scroll to the bottom of a debug log in order to export it (Issue #258, PR #259)
- Versioneer will now be used to manage version strings (PR #283; Issue #288, PR #289)
- On macOS, Gridsync will no longer run as an background-only/"agent" app; the application will again be visible in both the Dock and CMD+Tab window-list (Issue #284, PR #285)
- The grid-name will now be displayed in the status panel when "connected" instead of the number of connected/known storage nodes (Issue #296, PR #297)
- The number of connected/known storage nodes and total storage space remaining will now always be displayed in the status panel label's tooltip, instead of the (now-removed) "globe" icon/button (Issues #296, #300; PR #301)
Removed
- Due to changes in minimum system requirements for numerous dependencies, macOS "Legacy" builds (targeting macOS 10.9 or higher) will no longer be provided (Issue #256, PR #266); Gridsync now requires a minimum macOS version of 10.13 or higher.
Fixed
- "Cheat codes" that correspond to non-existent configuration files are now rejected as invalid (Issue #185; PR #186)
libstdc++has been excluded from Linux PyInstaller bundles, preventing a crash that coincided with opening a native file-chooser dialog on ArchLinux (Issue #189, PR #191)- The "syncing" system tray icon animation will no longer continue to animate endlessly if a folder is removed/stopped before it finishes syncing (Issue #197, PR #200)
- Gridsync will now use atomic writes for all local configuration file updates (Issue #212, PR #214)
- The default Qt MainWindow toolbar context menu has been disabled, preventing the situation in which a user might accidentally hide the toolbar with no way of re-showing it until the application re-launches (Issue #215, PR #216)
SetupRunner.ensure_recoverywill now only be called when joining new grids, preventing an unnecessary upload from occurring -- and sometimes failing, due to a race-condition -- when trying to join a grid that was already joined (Issue #220, PR #221)- The unused "?"/"What's This" QDialog button (enabled by Qt on Windows by default) has been removed (Issue #222, PR #223)
- Double-clicking a newly-joined folder to open it before the tahoe daemon has finished (re)starting will no longer result in a crash (Issue #224, PR #225, #229)
- Modifying the application name via
config.txtwill no longer cause theconfig_dirtests to fail erroneously (Issue #234, PR #235) - The "drop zone" border (visually indicating, by means of a dotted line, the area capable of adding new folders via drag-and-drop) is now rendered programmatically according to the dimensions of the enclosing window, thus preventing the border from appearing disproportionately thick when the MainWindow is enlarged or maximized (Issue #75, PR #240)
- The poorly-supported-by-Qt macOS "fullscreen" mode has been disabled for the MainWindow (and replaced with a more traditional "maximize" functionality), preventing the situation in which the application window could become stuck in fullscreen mode (Issue #241, PR #242)
- Left-clicking the "Action" button corresponding to a specific folder will now correctly deselect and exclude any other folders from the subsequent user-selected action (Issue #254, PR #255)
- Folders joined while connecting to a new grid will now appear immediately in the MainWindow folders view after the setup process completes (Issue #256, PR #257)
- On Windows, Gridsync will attempt to remove any stale magic-folder sqlite databases on exit/restart, preventing an issue in which previously-joined folders could not be re-downloaded (Issue #294, PR #295)
- Folders will no longer be erroneously shown as being "Up to date" if their corresponding
tahoeclient is not connected to the storage grid or has not completed a remote scan (Issue #300, PR #301). - The "Scanning" folder status/phase has been combined with the "Syncing" phase and will no longer be displayed separately (PR #301).

v0.4.2
Compare
Changelog
0.4.2 - 2019-04-06
Added
- An interface for viewing and exporting debugging information/logs for Gridsync and its underlying Tahoe-LAFS processes has been added (accessible via the system tray menu under "Help" -> "Export Debug Information...") (Issue #173, #168; PR #174, #179) -- thanks to @exarkun for providing the Tahoe-side functionality to make this happen! :)
Changed
- "Sharing"-related actions have been reframed considerably throughout the interface in order to more precisely convey the underlying functionality of the application -- i.e., that "sharing" entails the creating or entering invite codes and that these invite codes are created/entered on devices (rather than "shared" with "persons") (Issue #139, PR #166). In particular:
- The "Enter Code" button on the MainWindow toolbar has been replaced with an "Invites" button (offering "Enter Invite Code" and "Create Invite Code" sub-actions), while the vague/ambiguous "Share" button has been removed completely
- The top-level "Share" action in the right-click/context menu has been replaced with a more accurate "Sync with Device" -> "Create Invite Code" menu/action hierarchy
- The "person" overlay/emblem (which appeared over icons for "shared" folders) has been replaced with a "laptop" overlay/emblem instead
- The tooltip for "shared" folders has removed references to "persons"
- The "Export Recovery Key" action in the systray menu has been removed (since it is already available on the MainWindow toolbar) (PR #166)
- The "Preferences" action/button on the MainWindow toolbar has been moved to the system tray menu (PR #166)
- The History View toggle has been moved to the right-hand side of the grid pulldown/combobox (PR #166)
- Binary distributions of Gridsync will now include a much newer build/version of Tahoe-LAFS that includes upstream support for magic-folders on macOS (Tahoe ticket 1432) and other bug-fixes (Tahoe tickets 2965, 2997, 3006, 3017) -- thanks (again) @exarkun! :)
- Numerous logging messages have been updated to remove or redact potentially sensitive information such as folder names, file/directory paths, Tahoe-LAFS storage fURLs, and capabilities (Issue #61; PR #179, #181)
Fixed
- Gridsync will now perform an additional check to ensure that enough storage servers are available before attempting to make a directory, link/unlink a capability, or upload/download a file (effectively "pausing" or delaying these operations until a sufficient number of connections have been established) in order to reduce the likelihood of connection-related errors/failures when initially joining a storage grid
- Gridsync should no longer open a connection to the wormhole relay/rendezvous server when first initializing a
Wormholeobject, preventing the situation in which a second "clearnet" connection would idly persist (but remain unused) after adding a new connection via magic-wormhole over Tor -- big thanks to @abmoka (82b13dff1b5fee62eaaff6d483da66bb792a73cd @ Akomba Labs) for reporting this issue! (Issue #169, PR #171) - When running under a PyInstaller/frozen python interpreter, Gridsync/
xdg-openshould now correctly launch the user's browser when clicking links to URLs within the application (Issue #177, PR #180) - On desktop environments that do not support a system tray, the system tray menu will be accessible instead from the bottom-right corner of the status panel (Issue #178; PR #182)

v0.4.1
Compare
Changelog
0.4.1 - 2019-03-12
Added
- A rudimentary, text-based progress-indicator has been implemented, displaying the overall percentage of transferred/remaining bytes during folder-syncing operations (shown under the "Status" column of the folder-manager) (Issue #132, PR #142)
config.txtnow accepts alogo_iconapplication setting, allowing whitelabel/rebranded distributions to display a larger logo on the initial welcome screen (in place of the default application icon + description combination) (PR #150)config.txtnow also accepts an optional[message]section withtitle,text, and (icon)typesettings, allowing whitelabel/rebranded distributions to display a custom message to users upon starting the application (PR #161, #162)
Changed
- The Gridsync project no longer depends on Travis-CI or AppVeyor for build-deployment and will now instead use dedicated virtual machines running on dedicated hardware for releases (PR #165). Currently, the following operating system versions should be considered supported (64-bit only):
- For GNU/Linux: glibc 2.17 and above -- including Debian 8+, Ubuntu 14.04+, CentOS 7+, and Fedora 29+
- For macOS: macOS 10.12 "Sierra" and above
- For Windows: Windows Server 2012R2, Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10
- The interprocess mutex (used to prevent multiple instances of Gridsync from running at the same time) has been changed from a listening TCP port to a filesystem lock (using
fcntlon UNIX-based systems), preventing false "Gridsync is already running" errors under some macOS 10.14 environments (Issue #138, PR #141) - The Windows executable installer will now prompt the user whether install the application "for me only" or "for all users"; it is now possible to install Gridsync without requiring an administrator password (Issue #152, PR #153)
- The unnecessary Tcl/Tk dependency inserted by PyInstaller has been removed from Tahoe-LAFS bundles on Windows, reducing the resultant application filesize by about 10 MB (PR #154)
- The "Open Gridsync" system tray menu action is now always enabled but now will show/raise the "welcome" window in the event that no storage grids have been joined (Issue #147, PR #155)
- PyInstaller/binary bundles will now always use the Tahoe-LAFS executable included inside the application directory (as opposed to selecting a
tahoeexecutable from the user'sPATH) (PR #158) - Gridsync will now use the Tahoe-LAFS web API directly when adding/creating new folders (instead of shelling out to the
tahoepython CLI), resulting in significantly faster initial magic-folder creates and facilitating better error-handling (Issue #145, PR #160) - If a magic-folder fails to get added/created for any reason, Gridsync will automatically retry that operation after a 3 second delay. It will only re-try once, however (and will display an error message in the event of a second failure) (Issue #145, PR #160)
- A warning/confirmation message-box will be displayed to the user in the event that they try to exit the application while a newly-added folder is still in the process of being created or if any existing folders are currently syncing (Issue #145, PR #160)
- The
[help]section ofconfig.txtis now optional; the "Browse Documentation" and "Report Issue" actions in the systray help submenu will now only appear ifdocs_urlandissues_urlrespectively have been set (PR #164)
Fixed
- Gridsync will now display an error message -- rather than crash -- in the (rare) event that a user tries to restore a folder without actually possessing the correct capabilities to do so (Issue #143, PR #144)
- The desktop environment-specific file-manager should now properly launch when opening a folder under a PyInstaller build on Linux (Issue #146, PR #148)
- The environment-specified font should now correctly load when running a PyInstaller build on Linux (Issue #84)
- Gridsync will now refrain from trying to restart a tahoe client if that client is already in the proccess of stopping or starting, preventing needless tahoe restarts when adding new folders in quick succession (Issue #149, PR #151)
- On Windows, the application icon should no longer persist in the system tray after the application has exited (Issue #156, PR #157)
- The logic surrounding
tahoedaemon restarts after adding folders has been improved; Gridsync will now wait until all known/queued linking events have completed before proceeding with atahoe stopand will not attempt to restart unless at least one folder has been added/created successfully (Issue #145, PR #160) - In the event that a magic-folder cannot be added/created, it will be removed immediately from the folder view/model in the UI (after displaying an error message); failed folders should no longer linger or appear stuck in a "Loading..." state and/or need to be removed manually (PR #160)
- A rare Qt-related crash (caused by Gridsync trying to update the mtime or size for a folder that has recently been removed) has been fixed (PR #160)
- In hopes of fighting off any "Zombie Dragons", Gridsync will now restart the
tahoedaemon after successfully leaving a magic-folder (PR #163) - When permanently removing one or more magic-folders, Gridsync will now wait until all unlink operations have completed before rescanning the rootcap, preventing the situation in which a folder might re-appear in the UI as "Remotely stored" despite having just been removed (PR #163)

- An Inno Setup Windows executable installer ("Gridsync-setup.exe") is now provided (Issue #35)
- Backspace/Delete key-presses can now be used to remove folders
- An "action" button/column has been added for each folder/row, making folder-specific actions accessible via left-click (Issue #89)
- A (very) basic "About"/version dialog has been added, accessible via the systray menu
- A "history" view has been added, displaying a chronological record of recent changes made to magic-folders and enabling per-file actions (Issue #92, PR #116, PR #124)
- Support for high-DPI "retina" displays has been enabled for macOS ".app" bundles (PR #116)
- In-app "help" buttons/dialogs have been added to invite-code widgets, providing additional information about "invite codes" and "Tor" (PR #129)
- macOS binary releases are now certified by Apple (signed by "Developer ID Application: Christopher Wood (6X3QVDWX28)"); users should no longer receive "unidentified developer" warnings from Gatekeeper when launching Gridsync (Issue #20)
Changed
- Due to upstream changes/deprecations with the Homebrew package manager and Qt5, the minimum "officially" supported version of macOS for Gridsync binary distributions has been increased from 10.10 ("Yosemite") to 10.11 ("El Capitan"). For users who have not yet upgraded or who are still using older hardware, however, a "legacy" distribution of Gridsync has been provided (based off Qt 5.8 and tested to run on 2009-era hardware with versions of macOS as old as 10.9) (Issue #110)
- The version of Tahoe-LAFS included in Windows and Linux binary distrubutions has been upgraded to 1.13.0 (PR #108)
- macOS binary distributions will now include a more recent (but still unreleased) version of Tahoe-LAFS with numerous magic-folder-related bug-fixes and improvements -- thanks @vu3rdd!
- Gridsync will now run as an "agent" application on macOS, accessible from the menu bar but no longer appearing in the Dock (Issue #86, PR #112, PR #114)
- A "person" overlay/embled will now be displayed over the icons of shared folders (PR #129, PR #133)
- Failure to decrypt a recovery key no longer requires re-importing the file to try again (Issue #60)
- Font sizes have been increased on macOS to match the equivalent weights on most Linux and Windows environments
- The dynamic action button inside invite code fields will now also update on window-enter cursor events (allowing, e.g., the "paste" button to become conveniently activated after copying an invite code to the clipboard from another window)
- The main/status window's title will now include the name of the currently-active grid
- The Preferences pane has been detached into a floating Preferences window with per-section "tabs" (Issue #117, PR #119)
- The MainWindow toolbar has been updated; text labels have been added beneath buttons and some actions have been re-organized (Issue #106, PR #120)
- The MainWindow status bar has been replaced with a "status panel", showing grid-related status information in a more compact manner (PR #116, PR #123)
- Various misc. UI elements (widgets, margins, fonts, etc.) have been adjusted on macOS and Windows to better match the underlying desktop environment (PR #125, PR #129)
Removed
- The "default" provider section of
config.txthas been removed; organizations wishing to deploy a modified Gridsync client with pre-configured settings are encouraged to use a "cheat code" instead - The "Import from Recovery Key" option has been removed from the manual configuration screen (since this functionality is now available from the welcome screen)
- The "green lock" folder icon overlay has been removed (Issue #121, PR #122)
Fixed
tahoe.select_executable()will now use an empty nodedir when checking tahoe instances for multi-magic-folder support (preventing potential inaccuracies caused, e.g., by a pre-existing/misconfigured$HOME/.tahoenodedir)- Tahoe subclients created from older versions of Tahoe-LAFS that only support "legacy" magic-folders will now correctly inherit the parent client's
servers.yamlsettings upon creation. - The "Open Gridsync" systray menu action will correctly remain disabled until at least one grid has been succesfully joined
- Users will no longer be prompted to export a Recovery Key after restoring a connection from one
- Empty folders will no longer appear stuck in a "Loading" state (Issue #73)
- Gridsync will now shutdown more gracefully, avoiding qt5reactor-related hangs when exiting
- Subdirectory objects are now ignored when parsing magic-folders (avoiding Tahoe-LAFS bug #2924) (PR #115)
- Newly joined grids will become available/selected immediately from the main window comboxbox (PR #126, PR #129)
