reader v2.12 Release Notes

  • ๐Ÿš€ Released 2022-03-31

    • โž• Add the :mod:~reader.plugins.readtime :ref:built-in <built-in plugins> plugin, which stores the entry read time as a tag during feed update. (:issue:275)

    • Allow running arbitrary actions once before/after updating feeds via :attr:~Reader.before_feeds_update_hooks / :attr:~Reader.after_feeds_update_hooks.

    • Add :meth:Entry.get_content and :attr:Content.is_html.

    • ๐ŸŒ In the web app, use the read time provided by the :mod:~reader.plugins.readtime plugin, instead of calculating it on each page load. Speeds up the rendering of the entries page by 20-30%, hopefully winning back the time lost when the read time feature was first added in 2.6 <Version 2.6_>_. (:issue:275)

    • ๐ŸŒ In the web app, also show the read time for search results.
