Post-upgrade issues

If you see an error while Memos's interface is loading, just press F5 or right-click the window and click reload. This is caused by a stale webview cache and also affects Memo's Docker instances.

Migration

The internal resource path migration will run only once when you first start this new version. It will create a new table memospot_migrations to keep track of migrations. This won't affect Memos at all.

The path migrator is relatively fast. It can migrate 300k resources in less than 30 seconds on a modern machine. If you see a Something went wrong message, just wait a minute and click the Check again button.

Backups

The backup system is in a preliminary stage, currently only used before migrations.
Backups are created using a zip file container, but compression is in Zstandard format (due to the speed/compression ratio being much better). If needed, you can decompress those files with WinRAR, 7-Zip-zstd, or p7zip.

Configuration

For advanced usage only. Most of the settings are optional or auto-managed.

The most prominent new setting is memos.data, which allows you to change the data storage (database, assets, and thumbnails) to a folder synced by a cloud storage provider client, like OneDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.

• Path-related settings support home directory ~/ expansion.

• File is located at ~/.memospot (POSIX systems) or %LocalAppData%\memospot (Windows).

Sample memospot.yaml:

memos:
  # Use this to spawn a custom Memos binary.
  binary_path: null

  # Memos working dir. This is where the `dist` folder must reside.
  working_dir: null

  # Memos data storage. Where the database and assets are stored.
  data: null

  # Mode: [prod] | dev | demo. This affects the database used on startup.
  mode: prod

  # Address where Memos will listen for connections.
  addr: 127.0.0.1

  # Memos port. Managed by Memospot. You can set a custom port, but it
  # will be automatically changed if the port is in use at Memospot startup.
  port: 0

  # Custom environment variables for Memos. Custom keys will be automatically uppercased and prefixed with "MEMOS_". Make sure to always quote custom env values, so they get parsed as strings.
  # env:
  #   NEW_ENV_VAR: "my value"
  env: null
memospot:
  backups:
    # Enable backups [true]. Currently, backups only run before
    # database migrations and there's no retention management.
    enabled: true
    # Backup directory.
    path: null
  migrations:
    # Enable migrations [true]. Currently, there's one migration available that will change local resource paths from absolute to relative, making your data fully portable.
    enabled: true
  log:
    # Enable logging [false]. Used for advanced debugging.
    # A new file called `logging_config.yaml` will be created next to this file.
    # You can change `root.level` from `info` to `debug` to increase the logging level.
    enabled: true

What's Changed

• Bundled with Memos v0.18.1

• Memos port is now persisted via memospot.yaml settings file:
  The port will only change if it's in use during a next application start. This will increase WebView cache reuse and circumvent an issue that arose with Memos v0.18.0, where the user's language and theme are not retrieved from the database.

• Custom Windows installers:
  Selecting "Delete the application data" on uninstaller will delete Memospot WebView cache, Memos and Memospot binaries, but never the database, assets or settings.
  This will also prevent undesired behavior in case Tauri upstream changes.

• UPX is not used anymore on Windows builds:
  This should lower false-positive detections on AV software.

• A Try again button will appear in case Memos server takes too long to respond:
  This allows the server to take its time to load when running in low-end and/or heavily loaded systems.

Full Changelog: v0.1.1...v0.1.2

What's Changed

• fix: resolve proper data directory on Windows
• fix: add gstreamer to AppImage bundle

Full Changelog: v0.1.0...v0.1.1

See the assets section below to download the app.

Bundled Memos v0.17.1

Known issues

• Linux AppImage: if a video is uploaded, it won't play or the WebView will hang. This is due to gstreamer not being bundled. It will be fixed on next release. This doesn't affect the deb package (as long as you have gstreamer installed).
