7.9 KiB

5.4.0 (May 8 2020)

  • Favicons are now served over the http server (using a unique hash). This allows the favicons to be safely cached for long durations and still support dynamic updates.
  • Adds "graphDurationLabel" to config.json which allows you to manually modify the "24h Peak" label to a custom time duration.
  • Adds "serverGraphDuration" to config.json which allows you to specify the max time duration for the individual server player count graphs.
  • Adds "performance.skipUnfurlSrv" to config.json which allows you to skip SRV unfurling when pinging. For those who aren't pinging servers that use SRV records, this should help speed up ping times.
  • Ping timestamps are now shared between all server pings. This means less data transfer when loading or updating the page, less memory usage by the backend and frontend, and less hectic updates on the frontend.
  • Fixes a bug where favicons may not be updated if the page is loaded prior to their initialization.

5.3.1 (May 5 2020)

  • Fixes Mojang service status indicators not updating after initial page load.

5.3.0 (May 5 2020)

  • Replaces socket.io library (and dependency) with vanilla WebSockets.
  • Frontend reconnect behavior has been improved to use exponential backoff behavior (up to 30 seconds) with unlimited retries.
  • The "Lost connection!" message will now show the reconnection attempt timer.
  • "Counting N players on N Minecraft servers" is now instantly updated when initially loading the page.

5.2.1 (May 1 2020)

  • The historical graph will now auto scale its yaxis steps.

5.2.0 (Apr 29 2020)

  • Updated protocol to use serverIds instead of string names. This will reduce wasted bandwidth when pushing updates.

  • Removed various legacy code.

5.1.2 (Apr 22 2020)

  • Fixes the historical graph overflowing the maximum graphDuration value.

5.1.1 (Apr 21 2020)

  • Fixes records being overwritten after boot. This bug did not corrupt saves and is only a visual error.

5.1.0 (Apr 21 2020)

  • Completely rebuilt the backend. This includes several optimizations, code cleanup and syncing fixes. Its code model now pairs nicely with the frontend's Javascript model.

5.0.0 (Apr 8 2020)

  • New logo!
  • Completely rebuilt the frontend's Javascript (heavy optimizations and cleanup!)
  • Adds a button for mobile devices to manually request the historical graph

  • Add npm run dev and npm run build scripts to package.json
  • Added a distinct loading/connection status screen to simplify state management
  • publicConfig.json is now sent over the socket connection so the frontend can be safely reloaded on rebooted instances
  • Tooltips have been optimized and updated to a more readable design
  • Initial page loading has been optimized
  • MISSING_FAVICON_BASE64 has been moved to a file, images/missing_favicon.svg to improve caching behavior (and its customizable now!)
  • Peak player count labels are formatted using the graphDuration hours and now displays the timestamp seconds
  • Fixed favicon payloads being repeatedly sent.
  • Fixed the page being broken when connecting to a freshly booted instance
  • Fixed graphs starting at 0 player count when a server is initially pinged
  • Fixed status text ocassionally not being shown
  • Fixed some elements/frontend state not being completely reset on disconnect
  • Fixed Minecraft Bedrock Edition servers showing the default port of 19132
  • Fixed tooltips overflowing the page width
  • Fixed backend bug causing servers to skip some Minecraft versions
  • Minor connection blips have a grace period before the UI is updated, this prevents page reshuffle spam when experiencing minor connection issues

  • Added protection to prevent artifically high player counts (>250k) degrading browser performance by abusing the graphs.
  • Updated mime dependency, 1.3.4->2.4.4
  • Updated request dependency, 2.74.0->2.88.2 (deprecated, should investigate removal)
  • Updated sqlite3 dependency, 3.1.8->4.1.1 (fixes macOS install issue)
