Changelog for asfa

Unreleased changes

v0.10.0 (2024-05-27)

• Disable unnecessary regex features to reduce binary size by ~20% (by @jirutka)
• Cosmetic: Ensure verification separator is at least ellipsis ("...").
• Add preliminary nix support.

v0.9.1 (2021-12-28)

• Updated dependencies
• Fix: Added missing feature flags for clap3 release candidates
• Fix: Tests not running by disabling timestamps in simple_logger

v0.9.0 (2021-08-03)

• clean/list-command:
  • Fix having to supply negative indices after double dash.
• Add rename/mv command.
  • Rename a remote file after uploading.
  • Files can be selected by index or via local file with the same hash.

v0.8.0 (2021-06-15)

• push-command:
  • Provide more detailed error message if creation of remote file fails.
• Add details config option.
  • If true, act as if --details is given on command line.
  • If set, -D/--no-details can be used to overwrite yet again.
• Have -qqq disable all logging and output messages.
• Add new command: check
  • Same as list, it can be used to check if a given set of local files have already been uploaded.
  • If so, check prints similar information as list.
  • In case at least one file is not found, exit with return code 1 (i.e. for scripts when invoked with -qqq).
  • Since both check and clean command begin with c, another letter is needed to differentiate their short forms.
• list-command:
  • Fix interaction between --reverse and --last.
  • Add --first-argument that works opposite of last.

v0.7.5 (2021-05-25)

• Attempt to retrieve username from openSSH-config prior to falling back on system.
• Update dependencies

v0.7.4 (2021-03-27)

• push-command:
  • Remove need to seperate single alias from single file by dashes if alias specified first.
    • Previously: asfa push --alias my-alias.txt -- my-original-file.txt
    • Now: asfa push --alias my-alias.txt my-original-file.txt
  • Check response for errors regaring atd not running if --expire specified.
  • Now supports a default setting for --expire in the config.
    • Same as auth, both a global setting and host-specific settings are supported.

• list-command:
  • More informative message if no files are present on remote site.
• tests:
  • Fix atd not running in tests, but tests still passing because file got deleted differently.

v0.7.3 (2021-03-04)

• Internal:
  • Removed code-smell reported by clippy.
• list-command:
  • Disable framed-box layout if piping to another program.
    • Separate different fields by tabs.
    • Allows for easier parsing.
  • Fix cryptic error message if there are no remote files.
• config: If defined, use hostname to query openSSH config.
  • This allows for several distinct host-entries to be defined for the same physical host.

v0.7.2 (2021-01-29)

• Switch CI from Travis to Github Actions.
• push-command: When specifying --expire, move notification to the beginning of the line. This This allows for easier box copying of links when uploading several files at once.
• list-command: When specifying --detail, fix files below one KiB having no unit suffix. Now the suffix is B.
• If not specified explicitly, get hostname and port for host-entry from openSSH config.
• Fix connection error when openSSH offers too many pubkeys.

v0.7.1 (2021-01-26)

• Fix formatting error when displaying file sizes that are >=999.5 {K,M,G,T,…}, breaking table formatting.
• list-command:
  • Fix displaying all files if filter does not match anything.
• push-command:
  • When specifying --expire, the notification about when the link expires is now
    • an explicit timestamp instead of repeated user input.
    • printed to stderr instead of stdout.
    • only printed if asfa is used in a terminal. This makes it easier to capture the URL in scripts like tmp_link=$(asfa push my-file).

v0.7.0 (2021-01-25)

• push: Add --prefix/--suffix.
  • Add a prefix (and/or suffix) to the filename stem (i.e. the part without extension).
  • Useful to distinguish several autogenerated files with generic names (e.g., plots).
  • Please note that dual extensions like .tar.gz specifying a suffix will cause it to be inserted after .tar (i.e. the extension of a foobar.tar.gz file is .gz).

v0.6.1 (2021-01-08)

• Changed from_openssh (introduced in v0.5.4) to default to true (was originally planned for v0.6.0, but forgotten :( ).
• Fix bug that no files are listed if some folder names begin with a dash.

v0.6.0 (2020-12-18)

• clean/list/verify-commands: Add --newer/--older-flags
  • They take a duration (seconds, minutes, hours, weeks, months, years) and filter the otherwise selected files
  • Supported formats: -> tl;dr: Quantity and unit are NOT seperated by spaces
  • Examples:
    • List all files uploaded in the last three days: asfa list --newer 3weeks
    • Clean all files older than a month: asfa clean --older 1month
• clean-command:
  • Make output in confirmation dialog similar to list-command.
  • Add -d/--details to force displaying of file details in confirmation like list command.
• push-command:
  • Add --limit-{mbits,kbytes} to allow specifying a speed limit when uploading.
  • Add -e/--expire argument
    • automatically deletes uploaded files after set delay
    • delay syntax specified in the same manner as --newer/--older argument
    • uses at at remote site to schedule deletion

v0.5.4 (2020-11-15)

• Fix host-specific auth settings falling back on the default Auth-settings instead of the global Auth-settings defined in config.yaml.
• Add support to obtain settings from openSSH.
• If user-supplied settings fail to authenticate against the remote server, try using private keys listed in openSSH.
  • This can be toggled via a new from_openssh-boolean flag in auth-section.
  • For now, this defaults to false - will be changed to true in next non-bugfix release.
• Ensure bulk-requested file stats are in correct order.

v0.5.3 (2020-11-01)

• Rework authentication procedure to only try authentication methods that the server advertises.
• Add support for keyboard-interactive authentication if the user enables interactive input. -> Allows for two factor authentication (e.g., with pam-based google-authenticator)

• Fix: Remove unused --no-confirm-switch from verify command.
• Fix: Colorful output for clean-confirmation.

v0.5.0 (2020-10-22)

• Allow host selection via $ASFA_HOST environment variable. Priority for host selection is:
  1. -H/--host supplied via command line.
  2. ASFA_HOST environment variable.
  3. default_host from config file.
  4. Single host if there is only one defined.
• clean-command:
  • Add -F/--filter-option to clean files matching a given regex.
  • Add -n/--last-switch from list command to clean the last n files
  • Add -r/--reverse-switch to reverse listing (useful for -n).

  • Add -T/--sort-time-switch to sort selected files by modification time.
• list-command:
  • Add -T/--sort-time-switch to sort selected files by modification time.
• Add verify-command with same file selection arguments as clean/list.

v0.4.1 (2020-10-14)

• Fix name of prefix_length in example config.
• list: Add -d/--details switch that simply enables printing of all details.
• Fix formatting error when displaying file sizes that are 1000 {K,M,G,T,…} exactly.

v0.4.0 (2020-10-14)

• Add private_key_file to auth-option in order to specfiy private key file directly
• Add --verbose argument that increases loglevel
• Add --quiet argument that decreases loglevel
• Encode hash in base64 in order to make needed URL prefix shorter at same "guessability". → This causes the maximum prefix length to go down from 128 to 64 (4 bit per char → 8 bit per char)
• list:
  • Add -s/--with-size-switch to print file sizes.
  • Add -f/--filenames-switch to print filenames instead of full urls in listing.
  • Add -S/--sort-size-switch to sort selected files by remote size.
  • Add -r/--reverse-switch to reverse listing.
  • Add -F/--filter-option to only display filenames matching a given regex.
  • Add -i/--indices-switch to only print indices of files.
    • This is useful to supply as input to the clean command for instance:
    • Example: asfa clean $(asfa list -iF "\.png$") deletes all png.
  • Add -t/--with-time to print modification times.

v0.3.1 (2020-10-03)
