v0.94.0

[!CAUTION] For (advanced) manual setups only: Following a tooling change, the main entry point has changed from main.js to main.cjs. Same goes for the Electron build.

[!IMPORTANT] If you enjoyed this release, consider showing a token of appreciation by:

• Pressing the “Star” button on GitHub (top-right).
• Considering a one-time or recurrent donation to the lead developer via GitHub Sponsors or PayPal.

💡 Key highlights

• A huge amount of work was done by @perfectra1n to integrate LLMs such as Ollama and ChatGPT into Trilium.
  • The goal is not to have basic API integration, but to really let the LLM understand the notes that are part of your knowledge base.
  • For more information, consult the in-app User Guide (<kbd>F1</kbd>) and look for the AI section.
  • Since this is highly experimental work, the LLM chat functionality might work well or it might have quite a few quirks, please keep this in mind.
• This release brings significant updates to our libraries:
  • CKEditor, used by text notes is now updated to the latest version and that brings in new features (see below) and performance improvements.
  • CodeMirror, used by code notes has been upgraded to a new generation.
  • Code notes now also support themes, similar to code blocks.

🐞 Bugfixes

• Inconsistent Find and Replace Behavior in Large Code Notes by @SiriusXT
• Incorrect import of multiple inline math by @SiriusXT
• Random EPERM: operation not permitted on Windows
• The update button is sometimes blank by @SiriusXT
• Unable to handle multi line mathematical formulas when importing markdown by @SiriusXT
• Calendar: became invisible if resizing while not visible
• GPX track not rendering on geomap note
• GPX icons not working

✨ Improvements

• Improved the text editor style, to match the TriliumNext.
• Footnotes work in image captions by @werererer
• Improvements to text notes (see the in-app help for more details):
  • Bookmarks, similar to HTML anchors.
  • Emojis.
• Make it show which node triggered the event when right-clicking on tree by @SiriusXT
• Only expand/collapse the left pane of the focused window by @SiriusXT
• Code notes:
  • Added the GDScript (Godot) language for both code notes and code blocks in text notes.
  • Added the Nix language (and also in code blocks for text notes).
  • Added an indentation marker.
  • Note: syntax highlighting for some languages (mostly HTML-template languages such as EJS, JSP) is no longer supported due to lack of upstream support. If this is a problem, feel free to report an issue and we can see what can be done about it.
• Added support for additional syntax highlighting for code blocks in text notes: Cypher, XML-DTD, Jinja2, ClojureScript, Perl, Scala, Scheme, Swift, SystemVerilog, mIRC, Cobol, Dylan, RPM Specfile, TCCN3.
• Mermaid diagrams: basic syntax highlight (not all diagram types are supported) and code folding.
• Slight organization in Appearance settings: code block themes are now in "Text Notes", added a "Related settings" section in Appearance.
• Added support for opening and activating a note in a new tab using Ctrl+Shift+click on notes in the launcher pane, note tree, or note images by @SiriusXT
• Style and footnote improvements by @SiriusXT
• Backend log: disable some editor features in order to increase performance for large logs (syntax highlighting, folding, etc.).
• Collapsible table of contents by @SiriusXT
• Sessions (logins) are no longer stored as files in the data directory, but as entries in the database. This improves the session reliability on Windows platforms.
• Code blocks in text notes:
  • For editable notes, clicking on a code block will reveal a toolbar with a way to easily change the programming language and another button to copy the text to clipboard.
  • For read-only notes, a floating button allows copying the code snippet to clipboard.
• Math in text notes: equations can now be displayed on multiple lines by @SiriusXT
• Metrics endpoint by @perfectra1n
• Docker: Rootless Dockerfiles are now available by @perfectra1n
• Text notes: add a way to move up and down text lines via a keyboard shortcut by @dogfuntom
• improve tab scroll UX by switching from instant to smooth behavior by @SiriusXT
• Calendar view: display calendar view if #viewType=calendar is set.

• Geo map:
  • The name, icon and color of the track note are displayed as the starting point.
  • Added a distinct icon for the end marker.
