Re: Issue #122
Fetches content type from search results - displays it on thumbnails in
results grid;
Fetches content type from book id detail page (dfaults to "Other") and
uses it to construct the `final_path`.

One more on the frontend with some code cleanup, additional features and
bug fixes after testing this last week or so :)
* Various refactoring - removing reused code where possible and creating
new shared components (AdvancedFilters, DownloadButton, SearchBar,
buildSearchQuery, BookCard etc). Will hopefully help with further
features and improvements within the frontend. (cc @ZYancey)
* Added book descriptions to the details pane, grabbed alongside all
other info.
* Moved format selection into a dropdown list
* Added a toast notification if no results are found when searching
* Added “Clear search” button
* Added “Report bug” link in the header menu, linking to the issues page
* Fixed various UI bugs (Mouse hover colors, download badge)
Updated the fallback for file extension and size to work when
size/format details are missing but `_details` does still include some
information. If this was the case previously, the code wouldn't run and
files could be saved with no extension.
Fix for #322
This commit removes all references to the deprecated /request route
prefix
that was previously used for dual routing. The following changes were
made:
- Removed register_dual_routes() function that registered routes with
/request prefix
- Removed url_for_with_request() helper function for generating /request
URLs
- Removed call to register_dual_routes(app) at application startup
- Removed /request/ prefixed favicon routes
- Updated StatusEndpointFilter to remove /request/api/status log
filtering
- Removed unused flask_url_for import
All routes now only use the standard paths without the /request prefix.
Updated the script to extract hostname and IP from EXT_BYPASSER_URL and
modify /etc/hosts accordingly. Replaced pyrequests with curl for network
requests.
AA started injection an ad banner into their code, for now we start
skipping this.
I am expecting later we will need to revisit this code for when they
actually start injecting the add

Adding support for an external CloudFlare bypasser service and
introducing a new Docker image build with a dedicated target.
Key Changes
- Added `cloudflare_bypasser_external.py` for external bypasser
integration.
- Updated Docker Compose files to support the new service.
- Introduced a new Docker target for building a separate image for the
external bypasser.
- Refactored relevant modules to utilize the external bypasser when
configured.
- Documentation and configuration updates to reflect new options and
Docker targets.
Impact
- Users can now choose between internal and external CloudFlare
bypassing.
- New Docker image and target streamline deployment of the external
bypasser.
- Improved modularity and maintainability.
- No breaking changes for existing workflows.
Testing
- Manual and E2E tests performed for both bypasser modes.
- Docker Compose setups and new image build verified for development and
production.
Notes
Please review the new configuration options and Docker targets. Update
your environment and deployment scripts as needed. Feedback and
suggestions are welcome!
Changed intermediate download file naming in backend.py to use
.crdownload extension. Refactored URL selection logic in book_manager.py
to adjust order and inclusion based on Cloudflare bypass and donator
key. Added extra Chromium arguments in cloudflare_bypasser.py to ignore
certificate and SSL errors for improved bypass reliability.
