Certain SMTP hosts limit the total number of messages that can be
sent within a window, for instance, X / 24 hours. The concurrency
and message rate controls can only limit that to a max of
1 messages / second, without a global cap.
This commit introduces a simple sliding window rate limit feature
that counts the number of messages sent in a specific window, and
upon reaching that limit, waits for the window to reset before
any more messages are pushed out globally across any number of
campaigns.

Lists, campaigns, and subscribers tables now support server-side
sorting from the UI. This significantly changes the internal
queries from prepared to string interpolated to support dynamic
sort params.
A new toggle switch in Settings -> Privacy, which is off by
default, allows campaign views (pixel) and link clicks to function
without registering the subscriber ID against view and click
events, anonymising tracking. When off, the subscriber UUIDs in
view and link tracking URLs are removed, anonymising subscriber
information from HTTP logs as well.
This is a major feature that builds upon the `Messenger` interface
that has been in listmonk since its inception (with SMTP as the only
messenger). This commit introduces a new Messenger implementation, an
HTTP "postback", that can post campaign messages as a standard JSON
payload to arbitrary HTTP servers. These servers can in turn push them
to FCM, SMS, or any or any such upstream, enabling listmonk to be a
generic campaign messenger for any type of communication, not just
e-mails.
Postback HTTP endpoints can be defined in settings and they can be
selected on campaigns.
Example given for CSV import on Import.vue is incorrect since
field `attributes` value is not a valid JSON. Previous example
copy pasted was throwing CSV parse error.
- A check for new versions on the GitHub releases pages happens
once every 24 hours. When a new version is available, a notice
is displayed on the admin UI.
- Add missing `app.root_url` key in migration.
- Register `/settings` handler in the backend.
- Add dummy dots in secret fields on the UI for visibility.
- Added as a setting in the settings UI.
- Refactor Messenger.Push() method to accept messenger.Message{}
instead of a growing number of positional arguments.
- Change global font to Inter.
- Introduce global top nav bar.
- Restyle form inputs to have inline labels.
- Restyle form inputs to have inline lengt counters.
- Override glitchy Buefy animations (sidebar, toast etc.)
- Fix tag alignment inside tables in responsive view.
- Refactor import page UI.
- Miscellaneous styling fixes.
- Add missing Fontello icons.
This is a major breaking change that moves away from having the
entire app configuration in external TOML files to settings being
in the database with a UI to update them dynamically.
The app loads all config into memory (app settings, SMTP conf)
on boot. "Hot" replacing them is complex and it's a fair tradeoff
to instead just restart the application as it is practically
instant.
A new `settings` table stores arbitrary string keys with a JSONB
value field which happens to support arbitrary types. After every
settings update, the app gracefully releases all resources
(HTTP server, DB pool, SMTP pool etc.) and restarts itself,
occupying the same PID. If there are any running campaigns, the
auto-restart doesn't happen and the user is prompted to invoke
it manually with a one-click button once all running campaigns
have been paused.
Instead of using a response transformer, move the global response
JSON transformation (snake case to camel case) to the pre-existing
response interceptor. Also, fix the `data.data` and `data`
discrepancy in responses.
- Fix path related issues in filesystem and S3.
- Add checks for S3 "/" path prefix.
- Add support for custom S3 domain names.
- Remove obsolete `width` and `height` columns from media table (breaking)
- Add `provider` field to media table (breaking)
- antd+react was resulting in extremely clunky and unreadable
spaghetti frontend code (primarily due to how antd is).
- Buefy is lighter by an order of magnitude, has excellent
responsive views (especially tables) and usability.
- Vue's templating produces far more readable template code.
- Campaigns now have a `type` property (regular, opt-in)
- Opt-in campaigns work for double opt-in lists and e-mail
subscribers who haven't confirmed their subscriptions.
- Lists UI shows a 'Send opt-in campaign' optin that
automatically creates an opt-in campaign for the list
with a default message body that can be tweaked before
sending the campaign.
- Primary usecase is to send opt-in campaigns to subscribers
who are added via bulk import.
This is a breaking change. Adds a new Postgres enum type
`campaign_type` and a new column `type` to the campaigns table.
- Lists can now be marked as single | double optin.
- Insert subscribers to double opt-in lists send out a
confirmation e-mail to the subscriber with a confirmation link.
- Add `{{ OptinURL }}` to template functions.
This is a breaking change. Adds a new field 'optin' to the lists
table and changes how campaigns behave. Campaigns on double opt-in
lists exclude subscribers who haven't explicitly confirmed subscriptions.
Changes the structure and behaviour of how notification e-mail routines,
including notif email template compilation, notification callbacks for
campaign and bulk import completions.
- Toggle options to enable self-service data export and wipe
options on the public unsubscription page. Subscribers can get
a copy of all data on them e-mailed to them as JSON, or
instantly wipe all their data.
- Refactor "unsubscribe" pages and URIs to "subscription".
- Add export icon to subscriber admin view.
