Unreleased

1.1.1 - 2026-10-15

Changed

  • The directory checks five feeds at a time, so a publisher that does not answer no longer holds up the rest of its round (#227).
  • A feed's server that takes 10 s to connect, or sends nothing for 15 s, is given up on (#230).

Security

  • A failed feed check is logged without its address's query or password (#238).

1.1.0 - 2026-10-13

Added

  • With metrics_bind set, the directory serves Prometheus metrics on a port of its own: memory, open files, and the feeds it has fetched and their bytes. A feed check's trace says how large the feed was (#224).

Changed

  • The directory uses mimalloc instead of glibc's allocator, so it gives back memory it has freed instead of holding over a gigabyte while idle (#224).
  • The example in docs/directory.md has no healthcheck; ipx-directory health is still there to run by hand (#218).

Security

  • A feed check's trace keeps the feed's address without its query or password (#225).

1.0.0 - 2026-10-12

Added

  • Anyone can browse the directory in a web browser, read only: the most subscribed, categories, every feed A to Z, a search by name, and each feed's page with its latest items and its address to copy into any podcast app (#215).
  • GET /v1/instances lists the servers holding a snapshot, with their feeds and subscribers, for an admin token (#206).
  • ipx-directory, a directory of public podcasts that ipx servers share: each sends the public feeds its people subscribe to, and any server with a token browses them, each feed listed once it has been read. Tokens are in its config file, each read-only, read-write or admin, and revoked one at a time (#204, #205).
  • Traces: a span a request, joining the trace of the ipx server that called, and a trace a refresher round with a span a feed (#213).
