# Changelog
All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/) but do not follows semantic versioning as it is useless in this type of project.
## [2.7.4-1] - 2026-07-26
### Added
* libcanlock support.
* ssmtp for sending mails.
### Changed
* Little image optimisation - compile everything and cleanup sources in one command. Saves ~10 megabytes 😅.
## [2.7.4] - 2026-07-24
Initial container release with inn 2.7.4 built with perl/python/sqlite support.
[2.7.4]: https://code.pztrn.name/containers/inn2/releases/tag/2.7.4

Note that this code is built to support dual-stack (IPv4+IPv6). You should either:
1. Remove IPv6 things if not using it.
2. Set up SNAT6 for outgoing connections to work (on host or router).
3. Add globally routable address to IPAM config and network definition in container.
## Cronjobs
There is a section in documentation about cron jobs you should configure. This docker image currently isn't supporting these, so configure it separately with lines like:

## Sending emails
As this container has no postfix installed (why do you might ever need it here?) you can use [ssmtp](https://wiki.debian.org/sSMTP) which installed in container to get mails sent over SMTP.
## Versioning
Image versioning follows official inn2 versions with additional optional version postfix added to indicate image fixes for particular version.
Examples:
* 2.7.4-3 - inn version 2.7.4 and 3 additional fixes applied to container.
* 2.7.4-3 - inn version 2.7.4 and 3 additional fixes applied to container or inn's dependencies.
* 2.7.6 - inn version 2.7.6 without additional container fixes.
All notable changes to container and it's building process are noted in [CHANGELOG.md].
## Data directories and permissions
Configuration is kept in `/inn2/etc`, mount it in your local filesystem. Entrypoint script will copy default configuration for you if missing.
