v2.0.0

Features

PicGo Server (Local HTTP API)

The local server has been rebuilt to be more robust and secure. It now supports automatic port detection and optional authentication, making it safer to run in shared environments.

How to use:

Simply run the following command to start the server:

picgo server

• Smart Port Management: By default, it uses port 36677. If the port is busy, PicGo will intelligently detect if another PicGo instance is running and reuse it, or automatically find the next available port.
• Upload Endpoint: Send POST /upload requests with:
  • JSON body: { "list": ["/path/to/image.png"] }. if list is not provided, it will upload images from the clipboard.
  • Multipart form-data: files field.
• Health Check: POST /heartbeat to check server status.

Security & Authentication:

You can now protect your upload server with a secret token.

• Set a secret: Use the --secret flag, set the PICGO_SERVER_SECRET env var, or configure settings.server.secret.
• Authenticate requests: If secret is set, clients must provide the secret via the Authorization: Bearer <secret> header, X-PicGo-Secret header, or ?secret= query parameter.

For plugin authors and Node.js users

• New Router APIs: Use picgo.server.registerGet, picgo.server.registerPost, and picgo.server.mount to add custom routes safely.
• Programmatic Control: You can now control the server lifecycle via picgo.server.listen(), picgo.server.shutdown(), and check status with picgo.server.isListening().

PicGo Cloud Login

We have introduced a seamless login experience for PicGo Cloud. You can now authenticate directly via your browser without manually copying tokens.

How to use:

picgo login

• Browser Flow: This command opens your default browser for a secure login (PKCE). Once authorized, PicGo automatically saves your token.
• Manual Token: If you cannot open a browser (e.g., on a headless server), you can still log in manually using picgo login [token].
• Logout: Run picgo logout to remove your credentials.

For plugin authors and Node.js users

• New Auth API: Use picgo.cloud.login([token]) and picgo.cloud.logout() to manage authentication programmatically.

PicGo Config Sync

Keep your configuration synchronized across multiple devices with conflict resolution and optional End-to-End Encryption (E2EE).

How to use:

picgo config sync

• Smart Sync: PicGo performs a 3-way merge (Snapshot + Local + Remote) to ensure no settings are lost.
• Conflict Resolution: If conflicts occur (e.g., you changed the same setting on two different computers), the CLI will present a diff tree and ask you to choose: Use Local, Use Remote, or Abort.
• Privacy First: Sensitive fields like your Cloud Token are never synced.

Encryption Options:

You can choose how your data is protected in the cloud:

picgo config sync --encrypt e2ee

• auto: Default behavior.
• sse (Server-Side Encryption): We use AES-256-GCM to encrypt your config on our servers. No PIN is required.
• e2ee (End-to-End Encryption): Uses PBKDF2 + AES-256-GCM. Your config is encrypted locally before uploading. A PIN will be required to decrypt it on other devices.

Breaking Changes

• Node.js v20.19.0+ is now required.
• If Authentication is enabled: If you configure a server secret (--secret or settings.server.secret), all clients (including plugins making requests to the local server) must provide the correct credentials. Unauthorized requests to /upload will receive a 401 Unauthorized error.
