1.3.0 (2017-11-17)

We're happy to announce Ambar 1.3.0 is out!

What's new:

• We added new ways to visualize your search results: Folders View & Statistics View. Both are live and update as you type your search query.
  • Folders view allows you to quickly navigate through indexed files tree and preview results.
  • Statistics view allows you to easily analyze huge search results and have a full vision of your data
• Many of you asked us to add ui localizations... Thanks to one of our customers who made it possible. As for now there are two options: Russian and English, change uiLang in your config.json. If you want to add your own localization, please contact us on hello@ambar.cloud.
• If you don't want to preserve original files in Ambar, you can disable it in your config.json. Doing this highly reduces Ambar storage space requirements.
• Ambar management script and config file were optimized.

Migration from 1.2.0:

Unfortunately, this version is not backwards compatible. So, you have to perform a clean install.

1.2.0 (2017-10-18)

Hello everyone!

Ambar 1.2.0 is out!

What's new?
