What's Changed
Your journal images are now stored once and shared across entries — paste the same photo into ten
different days and it counts as one. Browse every image you've ever saved with the new visual media
picker, then insert any of them back with a double-click. Fonts also get a major upgrade: each entry
can have its own font family and size, independent of the app default, and the toolbar font controls
now format whatever text you've selected. Links finally work the way you'd expect — custom display
text, auto-prefixed URLs, and an "Open link" button to preview before applying. This release turns
your journal into a true rich-media notebook.
Added
- Image deduplication: images are now stored once in a content-addressed encrypted store inside
diary.db and referenced by ID. Inserting the same image into multiple entries shares one encrypted
copy. All export paths (JSON, Markdown, Rhai plugins) resolve image references back to data URLs
before exporting, preserving full compatibility. Legacy entries that still embed data URLs
continue to display and export correctly; existing saved entries migrate on their next save, and
Mini Diarium JSON imports now normalize embedded data:image/... content into the encrypted image
store during import.
- "Insert existing image" media picker: browse and reuse any image previously saved in the journal
through a visual thumbnail picker with sort, month filter, preview metadata, load-more pagination,
explicit Insert action, and double-click insertion. The picker loads encrypted thumbnail summaries
first and decrypts full image data only for the image being inserted. Inserted images are reused
verbatim (no canvas re-encode), ensuring the stored copy is deduplicated correctly.
Changed
- save_entry now extracts embedded data-URL images atomically into the image store on each save,
reducing stored entry size for entries with images. All writes (image extraction, link update,
entry text rewrite) are committed in a single database transaction.
- Link dialog now has a Display text field: you can override the visible label of a link directly in
the dialog (instead of the URL always being the label). Bare domains like example.com are
auto-prefixed with https://, email addresses become mailto: links, and phone numbers become tel:
links. The dialog also includes an "Open link" button so you can verify a URL before applying it.
- Editor toolbar font controls apply inline formatting: the font family and font size dropdowns in
the toolbar now apply inline marks to the selected text, instead of changing the global
preference. Preferences still controls the app-wide defaults that appear when an entry has no
entry default and no inline formatting on the selection.
Fixed
- External link opening now enforces safe protocols consistently: editor link opening paths now
normalize and allow only http, https, mailto, and tel targets. Unsafe stored or imported protocols
are ignored instead of being passed to the opener plugin.
