v1.2.0

Portal v1.2.0 brings some new QoL-features and fixes a bug where the config file would not be read.
The config file has been moved to $HOME/.config/portal/config.yml.

Prompt

• (default!) Prompt with a [Y/n] for each file that would be overwritten when receiving files.
• Adds --yes, -y flags that will automatically overwrite files without prompting.

Copying passwords when sending

• Adds the --relay [relay-address] flag to the copiable portal receive 1-x-x-x command when a sender is sending files through a relay which is not the default.

Configuration

• New config command with useful subcommands to handle your config file.

  • portal config view outputs current config with syntax highlighting.
  • portal config path outputs the path of the config file.
  • portal config edit opens the config file in default $EDITOR.
  • portal config reset resets the config file to its default values.

• New configuration options.

  • relay: [addr:port|domain] replaces the default_rendezvous_address and default_rendezvous_port options. It incorporates both the IP and port into one value, so relay: 1.2.3.4:8726 is a valid value.
  • verbose: [true|**false**] can now be configured in the config to always output verbose info.
  • prompt_overwrite_files: [**true**|false] can be configured to always prompt, or never prompt when overwriting files.

• Changes to config file behavior.

  • fixes reading configs from the config file (it was broken!).
  • moved the config file to $HOME/.config/portal/config.yml.

Valid relay addresses

• Now you can use loopback relay addresses on the form localhost:5432 or :5432. Previously, one had to use 127.0.0.1:5432 to address a relay on the loopback interface.

Special thanks

Thank you @ludetie for the feature suggestions and bug reports.
