1.3.0
I know, 1.2.0. hasn't been out for long yet but I have had some changes on the backburner that are now ready and tested.
TL;DR: Faster and more accurate indexing, video and audio thumbnails, fuzzy search and translations added.
New Features:
- Video Thumbnails: Faster initial indexing due to improved batching and automode scaling with enhanced defaults. Utilizes the internal file database more efficiently for lookups.
- Audio Thumbnails: Audio covers are now also shown as thumbnail in the results.
- Fuzzy Search: Improved search results with fuzzy search functionality.
- i18n Translations: Added multi-language support! Currently supports English, German, French, Italian and Spanish! Contributions to translating the JSON files are greatly appreciated.
- Update Changelog: The changelog now displays the app name in the settings/info tab, helping you decide if the update is worthwhile (it always is!).
- Decent Tray Icon: Improved tray icon appearance by removing the color background.
- Indexing pausable via tray: Indexing can now be conveniently paused and resumed via the tray icon.
- Search can be shown on each display: In addition to auto select, you can also specifically choose any display now for the search bar.
Fixes:
- Faster Folder Content Counting: Enhanced speed by roughly 50% in counting folder contents. Now displays both files and folders.
- Empty Folder Handling: Empty folders within watched folders are now indexed and show up in search results.
- "No Results" Display: The "No Results" message now reappears when a search yields no matches.
- Internal Exclusion Patterns: Implemented internal exclusion patterns for common folders like
node_modules,dist,coverageand so on. These exclusions now properly work recursively within the watched folder. - General Performance Improvements: Indexing now uses caching, path normalization, LRU caching, etc. to provide a performance boost.
- Folder Precounting: When indexing starts, it now uses the more performant counting option to pre-count the folder contents, giving a more accurate progress bar.
Other Changes:
- Thumbnail Cache: Can now be cleared in the settings.
- Crash Logs: Crash logs are now stored in
appdata/seeksy/crash-logs(Windows) or.config/seeksy/crash-logs(Linux).
