When couchDB_URI ends with a trailing slash (e.g. https://host/), the
database name concatenation produces a double-slash path
(https://host//obsidiannotes), which causes CouchDB to reject requests
with 401 "Name or password is incorrect".
Strip trailing slashes from couchDB_URI / baseUri at the path
concatenation sites in:
- src/common/utils.ts (_requestToCouchDBFetch, _requestToCouchDB)
- src/features/LocalDatabaseMainte/CmdLocalDatabaseMainte.ts
The companion fix for the replication path is in the livesync-commonlib
submodule.
Ref: #859
Now, Self-hosted LiveSync has finally begun to be split into the Self-hosted LiveSync plugin for Obsidian, and a properly abstracted version of it.
This may not offer much benefit to Obsidian plugin users, or might even cause a slight inconvenience, but I believe it will certainly help improve testability and make the ecosystem better.
However, I do not see the point in putting something with little benefit into beta, so I am handling this on the alpha branch. I would actually preferred to create an R&D branch, but I was not keen on the ampersand, and I feel it will eventually become a proper beta anyway.
### Refactored
- Separated `ObsidianLiveSyncPlugin` into `ObsidianLiveSyncPlugin` and `LiveSyncBaseCore`.
- Now `LiveSyncCore` indicates the type specified version of `LiveSyncBaseCore`.
- Referencing `plugin.xxx` has been rewritten to referencing the corresponding service or `core.xxx`.
### Internal API changes
- Storage Access APIs are now yielding Promises. This is to allow more limited storage platforms to be supported.
### R&D
- Browser-version of Self-hosted LiveSync is now in development. This is not intended for public use now, but I will eventually make it available for testing.
- We can see the code in `src/apps/webapp` for the browser version.
- We can analyse the local database with the `Analyse database usage` command.
- We can reset the notification threshold and check the remote usage at once with the `Reset notification threshold and check the remote database usage` command.
### Fixed
- Now the plug-in resets the remote size notification threshold after rebuild.
- We can perform Garbage Collection (Beta2) without rebuilding the entire database, and also fetch the database.
### Fixed
- Resetting the bucket now properly clears all uploaded files.
### Refactored
- Some files have been moved to better reflect their purpose and improve maintainability.
- The extensive LiveSyncLocalDB has been split into separate files for each role.
- Storage scanning no longer occurs when `Suspend file watching` is enabled (including boot-sequence).
### Improved
- Saving notes and files now consumes less memory.
- Chunk caching is now more efficient.
- Both of them (may) are effective for #692, #680, and some more.
### Changed
- `Incubate Chunks in Document` (also known as `Eden`) is now fully sunset.
- The `Compute revisions for chunks` setting has also been removed.
- As mentioned, `Memory cache size (by total characters)` has been removed.
### Refactored
- A significant refactoring of the core codebase is underway (please refer the release-note).
### Fixed
- Some parallel-processing tasks are now performed more safely.
- Some error messages has been fixed.
### Improved
- Synchronisation is now more efficient and faster.
- Saving chunks is a bit more robust.
### New Feature
- We can remove orphaned chunks again, now!
