v0.3.0-beta

What's up, surgers?
v0.3.0 brings some bigger changes to surge paving the ways for a lot quicker and more effective development. Firstly we refactored our internal logic and created SSM (Surge Session Manager) which is now in charge for managing up- and downloads as well as load balancing all connections. A lot of the sourcecode could be simplified and improves speed of network discovery even more.
Secondly the Surge UI now has a responsive design, meaning: You are now able to adjust the window size to your needs.

Features:

• dynamic window size
• implementation of the Surge Session Manager
• local files are now searchable
• you can now copy a local file's filehash
• added share ratio indicator

Changes:

• moved surge download folder on linux to ~/surge-downloads

Bugfixes:

• fixed tour only showing for some seconds on new installations
• fixed adding .zip files on windows
• don't recheck download finish in concurrent sessions (prevents dupe notifications)
• handle clients unsubscribes (no more ghost client connections and files where seeders are offline)

Improvements:

• added log rotating and limited logfile size
• internet connectivity handling during runtime

0.2.1-beta

Changes:

• initiate subscription only when there are files listed locally
• change subscription time to 60 min
• change resubscription time to every 60 min
• you can now order file listings by seeds and size
• searching does now also work with file hashes

Bugfixes:

• fixed file open dialog caused the app to crash on Linux systems
• fixed search function in macOS and Linux versions
• fixed tour not showing on first launch
• fixed that Windows installer can be run in user-context and therefore fails to create registry entries
• fixed files not deleting from surge when they are already deleted on disk
• fixed download folder issues on windows when folder is not the default one
• allow downloading files with no active seeders to start watchers for auto start on new connections
• fixed marking file as download on startup if it wasnt marked last session but has all chunks
• fixed duplicate seeder listings for files
• fixed files listed with zero seeders

Improvements:

• improved file completion logic by checking the file db chunkmap rather than bytes written which double counted chunk retries
• drastically improved network discovery time
• display files right after they are added to surge - hashing is now done in the background
• click to copy filehash to clipboard

v0.2.0-beta

Surge now officially starts its open beta.
That means two things you should be aware of:

1. This app could and will have some bugs we want to fix with your help. If you find one of these nasty guys please create an issue here in github - we will fix it as fast as we can.
2. The future of development heavily depends on your feedback - so get in contact with us as much as possible - tell us the things you like, tell us the things you dislike. Tell your friends about surge and if you know some development guru: we're always looking for help!

We still got some features on our roadmap, but this is what we achieved so far:

• automatic file discovery through the NKN blockchain
• download a file from multiple seeders at once
• rebalance seeders automatically while downloading
• reconnect to other available seeders on disconnect
• preparation: support of opening surge://-links and .slc files on multiple OS
• Dark/Light mode
• OS notifications
• many more

Happy testing!
