ConsentGate 0.3.0

Translatable error messages and automatic config updates.

Added

• Kick messages for errors, such as a busy gate, a timeout, or a storage failure, can be changed and translated with the new error-* keys in the message files.
• Missing settings are added to config.yml, and missing keys to the bundled message files, when the plugin starts. Your values and comments are kept, and the server log lists what was added. If a file cannot be updated safely, it is left unchanged, the log shows a warning, and startup continues. Make a file read-only to keep it as it is.

Changed

• Paper and Velocity now use the same wording for the same error. A few messages changed slightly, for example a Paper timeout now shows "Consent request timed out."

Upgrading from 0.2.0

Back up the plugin folder, stop the server or proxy, replace the JAR, and start again. The new message keys are added to en-US.properties and id-ID.properties automatically.

ConsentGate 0.2.0

Easier first setup.

Added

• Empty MySQL/MariaDB databases get their tables automatically. No SQL import is needed. First setup needs CREATE, REFERENCES, SELECT, INSERT, and UPDATE on the dedicated database.
• A disabled gate can be enabled with consentgate reload after setting enabled: true. consentgate validate also works while disabled, without opening storage.

Changed

• The generated config and starter documents explain setup, scopes, version changes, and setting limits.
• Existing tables are checked and never overwritten to repair or upgrade a schema.

Upgrading from 0.1.0

Back up the plugin folder, stop the server or proxy, replace the JAR, and start again. Existing config, messages, documents, and consent records are kept, and document versions do not need to change. Copy new settings or comments from the default config if you want them.
