- **Open Library (#1451): keep the work unless the search matched a
translation.** Open Library shows an English edition whenever one
matches the query. So "Mistborn" returned the 2023 "Mistborn" reissue
(2023) instead of "The Final Empire" (2001), and "Children of Dune"
returned "Children of Dune (Dune Chronicles, Book 3)" (1987). The
matched edition's title, ISBNs, cover, language and year now win only
when the edition is in another language and the query doesn't name the
work's own title. Checked against live Open Library: "Children of Dune"
and "Mistborn" give the v1.4.0 results again, and "Der Weg der Könige"
and "Kinder des Nebels" still return the German editions.
- **Google Books (#1434): the ISBN cache decorator is back on
`search_by_isbn`.** It had moved to the new `search_paginated`. Failed
searches were cached as empty pages, and ISBN lookups lost their cache.
- **Notifications: Test notification shows the plugin's failure reason
again.** Apprise 2 delivers on its own worker threads, even for a single
service when that service has a deadline. `_AppriseLogCapture` filtered
records by thread id and dropped all of them, so the UI only said "json:
delivery failed". Apprise runs those workers in a copy of the caller's
context, so the capture now filters on a context variable. That still
keeps concurrent dispatches apart. `AppriseAsset(async_mode=False)`
would not fix this, because the sequential path also uses the worker
pool when a service has a deadline.
- **Activity: `activity_update` no longer sends the raw task id to
non-admins.** The owner's `user_<id>` room got the raw task id. For a
request-linked download that id can hold a private tracker's passkey. It
now goes through `viewer_download_id`, the same mapping `/api/status`
and `download_progress` use. The admins room still gets the raw id.
- **SearchBar (#1476): Escape and an outside click close the homepage's
inline options panel again,** as they did in v1.4.0.
- **genDebug.sh: packages are listed through `importlib.metadata`,**
since #1404 removed pip from the image. The script also now redacts:
- `PROWLARR_MAM_ID`
- `user:pass@` credentials in URLs (proxies), in both the environment
and the config files
- notification route URLs, which carry their service's token (Telegram,
Discord and others)
- `make python-checks`, `make python-test`, `make frontend-checks` and
`make frontend-test` pass on top of current `main`.
- New tests cover:
- Open Library edition selection
- Google Books caching
- log capture against a real Apprise 2 delivery to a local server that
answers 500, plus a concurrent dispatch on another thread
- the `activity_update` payload sent to each room
- genDebug redaction and the package listing
Each one fails on the old code.
- I checked the SearchBar fix in the running app, because the frontend
has no DOM test setup: Escape closes the panel, an outside click closes
it, and a click inside keeps it open.
- I ran the genDebug redaction under GNU sed (Debian image) and BSD sed.
The package listing ran in the pip-less image.
Searching a translated title on Open Library or Hardcover returned the
original-language work. "Der Weg der Könige" came back as "The Way of
Kings" (2010), and that English title then went into the release search
and the download name. Both providers keep one record per work, titled
after the original, and list translations underneath it.
#483 already searches releases per language with Hardcover's localized
titles, which fixed the release side of #360 when the matching language
is selected. This PR fixes the search result itself, so the book a user
picks is the translation they searched for, and it covers Open Library,
the default provider, which has no titles_by_language.
- Open Library: request the matched edition (editions.*) and prefer its
title, ISBNs, cover, language and publication year when its title
differs from the work's.
- Hardcover: use the alternative title named in the hit's highlights
(alternative_titles, best index first), without the original's subtitle.
A hit whose title also matched keeps the work title.
- /api/releases: when the modal sends a title that differs from the book
record's, it becomes search_title. Before, Hardcover's search_title from
the original won, so picking "Kinder des Nebels" still searched "The
Final Empire" first.
- Release cache: keyed on title and language as well as the provider ID.
All translations share that ID, so opening "The Way of Kings" after "Der
Weg der Könige" showed the German releases until a reload.
Known limitations: neither provider has descriptions per edition, so the
description stays the work's (usually English). Hardcover's search hits
carry no year or language for alternative titles, so those stay the
work's; Open Library's do not. Google Books is unaffected, since it
already returns one volume per edition.
Tests: Open Library edition parsing, Hardcover alternative-title
matching, the /api/releases title override, and the release cache, each
written to fail first. The Python suite passes apart from the 9
test_entrypoint_permissions.py tests, which fail the same way on an
unmodified main on macOS. The frontend typecheck, lint, format check and
unit tests pass. Checked on a live instance with Open Library, Hardcover
and Google Books.
