Tally

write a readme and release v1

Uploading AND Downloading now work FULLY
Added option for files to require a password to download cuz why not
also changed some backend stuff to make sure there are no leaks

Basically rewrote the entire backend (which I can’t really show because its all code)

• change max quota to 2gb
• actually enforce quota
• new reservation system so incomplete uploads dont take quota forever
• a crap ton of checks
• abort method for canceling uploads

ui changes:

• slider (i worked hard on it pls clap)
• lots of small tweaks

First hours were spent on creating a nice folder structure and then making a robust database system built on SurrealDB and Redis (testing logs shown below)

App progress update: Settings layout mostly complete!
getting a nice smooth animations is quite tough

• open and close animation
• setting button spins
• sidebar moves off screen if window is not large enough (with trickery)

I quite like the system i came up with for the sidebar
I did not want to hardcode an array/object of entries as the markup will already have all of the entries, so I made svelte attachments to generate an object that the sidebar uses to render the sections

Also reworked many internals, including changing the node binary sidecar to use JSON messages instead of “::” seperated codes, should be more stable and reliable

First video is what it looks like currently, videos/media after are in order from oldest to newest that shows the development of the settings panel

Did lots of work on the tauri app!
made a custom titlebar and made the window do some pretty neat behavior stuffs :3 (look at the corners when near edges)
also added a tray icon for backgrounding if youre like me and dislike annoying extra idle windows
however now theres this random crash sometimes and idk whats causing that
ive been messing with styles for a long time and i think its finally good

cli

made a working, responsive cli client, currently only works on linux

app

ive decided to make a cross platform tauri app for better usability, as i imagine most people (including me) wont want to keep a terminal open for the entire mic session
Ill be using a nodejs binary sidecar because i am not very good at rust development

below is a video of the nodejs sidecar (hacked to have human input be possible) and the cli

next steps:

actually create the tauri app part of the tauri app, so far ive only made the nodejs half
finish the website, which is still in an unfinished prototype state
add compression, streaming raw PCM is suuuper wasteful

Pretty much finished the entire server, got a very basic (and bad looking) ui for the mic source, and i am working on creating a virtual microphone i can stream data into that works cross platform (except macos bc i cant test it)

Created a “fuel tank” like quota system, where uploading files uses up available quota, and quota slowly refills at a constant rate.

1GB Maximim quota, refills at 100mb/hour. 10 hours to go from 0b to 1GB

Remaining quota is calculated lazily when needed, there is no interval to recalculate quota, its only calculated on request (good for efficiency )

Improve signup page to have username & password requirement checklists
also add checklists to other create password fields so it is obvious why a password check fails

Write a README with examples of the system working

(also fixed an issue where redirecting to the app would fail to log you in, and would also log you out randomly)

Finalize for release
I cleaned up and finished the oauth2 portion, which has been behind for a bit
it now has tamper-proof params, validation of everything and just the right amount of jank

| also created a dockerfile and compose yml to host it

added:
GitHub login
username changing
account deletion (with hella confirmations)
finished account creation with discord & GitHub
password changing
password removing
&probably alot more i forgot about

apps:
url generator (with signatures :D)

Created a system for managing log in methods, and created a system for prompting actions or data from js alone, so i dont need to create needless variables and dialogs (i can just use the global one)

Finished password changing, removing password (if theres another log in method)t

logging in and linking and unlinking 3rd party services fully work now with frontends

adding a password has an api but is not implemented yet

final steps: clean up oauth flow (havent touched it since the start)

Discord login and creating an account with discord now works!
This required a rewrite of the accounts system as the old accounts schema was very reliant on every account having one password and thats it

now ive separated accounts from login methods, and also separated sessions

This devlog covers alot because i forgot to devlog for a while

1. started a redesign of the overview page
2. rewrote most of the backend server for managing, configuring and registering minecraft servers
3. changed the websocket message format to seperate stuff that should be seperate
4. change the backend to use RCON for internal running of mc commands instead of sharing the console with the frontend console, this also required to always have rcon on, which will need to be handled well in the future so if the user doesnt want rcon enabled, i pretend its off but its secretly on with a really long random password
5. layed down the basework for implementing modded / non vanilla servers
6. created a way to easily manage files relative to the server root
   6+1: added a small port managing system so servers and rcon for each server can find and use available ports and release them on shutdown / stop
   8: started working on server creation and initial setup

application creation works and is authenticated with icons and auth codes and scopes and i forgor what the last devlog said but edit accounts has avatars and pronouns and about me and authorize page workiy

bio and pronouns added just in case i want them later and made a character count thing

default avatar implemented with hue shifty thing

added account editing and pfp uploading with some silly cursed code :D (dont touch it works)

Oauth2 flow goin well
and i made a really really simple login page

account creation and logging in work
i keep remaking and tearing down the oauth system because i wanna get it right

player list now shows health and hunger and is an actual list now

Heres what it looks like rn (it looks so bad)

I’m working on my first project! This is so exciting. I can’t wait to share more updates as I build.
