  • Outline: Added --all option to the rotate password command.

2021 is an especially difficult year for many of us. The pandemic is not going away. New variants. Booster shots. Restrictions and mandates. COVID burnouts. The future looks grim.

For this project, 2021 saw some major changes and many many new features. We (and by we I mean I 😜) started using GitHub actions to automate building and testing. We published packages to NuGet and AUR (Arch User Repository). We introduced a Telegram bot to help with user interactions. We added an API server to replace the static file online config generator.

In 2022, we plan to shift all operations from the CLI to the API server. Just edit a simple config file, spin up the server, and you are ready to go. To achieve this, we have to integrate all existing logic in the CLI into the API server, expand the API server to support federation with other servers. The API server will run independently on all participating servers, so it has to support interacting with different backends. It's going to be a lot of work. Hopefully 2022 won't suck as much as 2021 does, and we can continue to deliver awesome new features!
