v1.4.0

Upgrade notes

• The config file is now actually read. Previously dynamotd.yaml was silently ignored because of a bug, so if you created one earlier, it will now take effect. If it contains an unknown row type (f.e. a typo), dynamotd prints an error and exits with 1, so no MOTD is shown until you fix it. The config file locations and format are unchanged.
• RAM figures change slightly, mostly on macOS: used memory is now "total minus available" on all OSes, and the total on macOS is the physical RAM size.
• The output alignment changed: the label column is now as wide as the longest label, instead of a fixed 23 characters.

New

• .deb and .rpm packages, installing /usr/bin/dynamotd and the example config as /etc/dynamotd.yaml.
• Static Linux binaries that work on any distro, regardless of its glibc version. All binaries are also about half the size.
• -version flag.
• A row that fails to get its data shows a red "can't get: ..." value instead of crashing the whole MOTD.
• All rows are generated concurrently, so login waits only for the slowest one (usually the external IP).
• Checksums of all the files in checksums.txt.
• MIT license.

Fixed

• Disk space was shown in red already at 75% usage and never in yellow (the warning and critical thresholds were swapped).
• % characters in uncolored text were mangled.

Internal

• Go 1.26 and updated dependencies (gopsutil v4; Viper and go-osstat removed).
• Releases built with GoReleaser; CI runs the tests on Linux and macOS, plus golangci-lint; Dependabot for dependency updates.
