Big New Changes

Removal of 32-bit Support

Starting with this release, Homebox is no longer available in 32bit forms, this include ARMv7 and older, and x86 processors.

Collections

Users can now be part of multiple collections; each collection is entirely separate and unique. This gives users more flexibility than ever when managing inventories, especially across different homes or shared spaces.

User Management

Along with collections, we've added some basic user management capabilities for collections. This is not yet full blown "Super User" type management, but it does make things a little bit easier.

Authentication Rate Limiting

We've also introduced a new rate limiting middleware for authentication requests, helping to further secure Homebox against brute force attacks.

Better Memory Management

Attachment uploads now use less memory thanks to improved optimizations in handling. Additionally, CSV imports no longer read the entire file just to determine a delimitator (which caused both memory and performance issues)

MQTT Client Now Available in Docker Containers

The MQTT client is now available in the regular and rootless docker containers, Hardened docker containers do not have the MQTT client due to the distroless nature of that container image.
