matterhorn v40000.0.0 Release Notes

  • ๐Ÿš€ This release supports server version 4.0.

    ๐Ÿ“ฆ Package changes:

    • Upgraded mattermost-api to 40000.0.0.
    • Upgraded mattermost-api-qc to 40000.0.0.

    ๐Ÿ› Bug fixes:

    • Attempts to /focus your own DM channel no longer trigger a server error (fixes #294)
    • Message edits now properly restore message reactions and attachments (fixes #292)
    • DM channels with topics now display those topics in addition to the DM channel user identification.
    • Rendering of attachments regressed in 31000.0.0 and is now fixed so that attachments are displayed beneath, not to the right of, their messages.

    ๐Ÿ†• New features:

    • Markdown image alt text is now rendered when available and Markdown images are now available in the C-o URL list (fixes #285)
    • Added a new configuration setting, showBackgroundActivity, which determines whether the status of Matterhorn's asynchronous work queue is displayed in the interface. This setting is mostly for developers but can be a helpful diagnostic tool. When enabled, the setting causes the async queue length to appear in the lower-right corner of the interface.
    • Added a new configuration setting, unsafeUseUnauthenticatedConnection, which causes Matterhorn to use a non-HTTPS connection when connecting to the configured host and port. As the sample configuration file says, use this only if you know what you are doing.

    Internal changes:

    • Added support for 4.0's channel_viewed and channel_updated websocket events.
