Thanks for giving this beta a try and reporting any issues!

v0.5.0 focuses on text search performance. The way torrents are indexed and queried for text search has been completely reworked; the final release will include some documentation updates for the website that will go into further detail.

Upgrading

To try the beta, set your image tag to ghcr.io/bitmagnet-io/bitmagnet:0.5.0-beta.1.

The v0.5.0 upgrade process is fully automatic (unless you've used the /import endpoint, read below). All torrents must be reprocessed before they will work with text search. Just wait for the background job queue to work through them, then enjoy better and faster search!

The queue may take several hours to work down if you have a large library. To check on progress, visit the /metrics endpoint and note metrics that begin asynq_tasks_enqueued_total{queue="process_torrent". Until the queue has worked down you won't see any newly crawled torrents (though the crawler will be running!)

When you start the container for the first time you should see a progress bar for queueing the reprocess - please don't interrupt the process until you see the completed progress bar. If the process is interrupted you may have to requeue manually using the command bitmagnet reprocess.

Note: I'm aware there are still some performance issues that need addressing for aggregations. These will be addressed separately - this release focuses on text search.

If you've used the /import endpoint, you will lose any classification hints that were part of the import. That is, if torrents were assigned to particular content types, video resolutions etc, this information will be lost and the classifier will attempt to classify from scratch without these hints. To recover the hints, the original import data must be reimported - it was necessary to separate these hints from the final classification result as the 2 things were previously conflated, making it impossible to separate out the data as part of this upgrade. IMPORTANT: the format for the /import endpoint has changed slightly, and the documentation for this on a branch here during the beta phase: https://github.com/bitmagnet-io/bitmagnet/blob/0.5.0-docs/bitmagnet.io/tutorials/import.md (note there is a slight change to the jq query in the final code snippet).
