Changelog

[Unreleased]

Deprecations

• This version of HedgeDoc is the last version that supports the following short-code syntaxes for embedding content. Embedding works now instead by putting the plain webpage link to the content into a single line.
  • {%youtube someid %} -> https://youtube.com/watch?v=someid
  • {%vimeo 123456789 %} -> https://vimeo.com/123456789
  • {%gist user/12345 %} -> https://gist.github.com/user/12345
  • {%slideshare user/my-awesome-presentation %} -> Embedding removed
  • {%speakerdeck foobar %} -> Embedding removed
• The use of sequence as code block language (Why?)

Removed

• SlideShare embedding
  • If a legacy embedding code is detected it will show the link to the presentation instead of the embedded presentation
• Speakerdeck embedding
  • If a legacy embedding code is detected it will show the link to the presentation instead of the embedded presentation
• We are now using highlight.js instead of highlight.js + prism.js for code highlighting. Check out the highlight.js demo page to see which languages are supported. The highlighting for following languages isn't supported by highlight.js:
  • tiddlywiki
  • mediawiki
  • jsx
• Alternative anchor URL formats

Added

• A new table view for the history (besides the card view)
• Better support for RTL-languages (and LTR-content in a RTL-page)
• Users may now change their display name and password (only email accounts) on the new profile page
• Highlighted code blocks can now use line wrapping and line numbers at once
• Images, videos, and other non-text content is now wider in View Mode
• Notes may now be deleted directly from the history page
• HedgeDoc instances can be branded either with a '@ <custom string>' or '@ <custom logo>' after the HedgeDoc logo and text
• Images will be loaded via proxy if an image proxy is configured in the backend
• Asciinema videos may be embedded by pasting the URL of one video into a single line
• The toolbar includes an emoji and fork-awesome icon picker.
• Collapsable blocks can be added via a toolbar button or via autocompletion of "<details"
• Added shortcodes for fork-awesome icons (e.g. :fa-picture-o:)
• The code button now adds code fences even if the user selected nothing beforehand
• Code blocks with 'csv' as language render as tables.
• Code blocks with 'markmap' are rendered as a mind map (see the projects website).
• All images can be clicked to show them in full screen.
• Code blocks have a 'Copy code to clipboard' button.
• Code blocks with 'vega-lite' as language are rendered as vega-lite diagrams.
• Markdown files can be imported into an existing note directly from the editor.

Changed

• The sign-in/sign-up functions are now on a separate page
• The email sign-in/registration does not require an email address anymore but uses a username
• The history shows both the entries saved in LocalStorage and the entries saved on the server together
• The gist and pdf embeddings now use a one-click aproach similar to vimeo and youtube
• Use Twemoji as icon font
• The [name=...], [time=...] and [color=...] tags may now be used anywhere in the document and not just inside of blockquotes and lists.
• The (add image) and (add link) toolbar buttons put selected links directly in the () instead of the [] part of the generated markdown.
• The help dialog has multiple tabs, and is a bit more organized.
• Use KaTeX instead of MathJax. (Why?)
• The dark-mode is also applied to the read-only-view and can be toggled from there.
• Access tokens for the CLI and 3rd-party-clients can be managed in the user profile.
