Papra v0.6 - Document activity logging, invitation management, and more!

I’m excited to announce the release of Papra v0.6! This release focuses on improving transparency, collaboration, and accessibility with activity tracking, enhanced invitation management, and full internationalization support.

Document Activity Log

One of the biggest additions in v0.6 is the document activity log. You can now track all actions performed on your documents, giving you complete visibility into who did what and when.

The activity log captures:

• Document creation
• Tag additions and removals
• Document deletions
• Document updates (content, renames, etc.)

This feature is particularly valuable for teams that need to maintain audit trails or simply want better insight into how their documents are being used.

Enhanced Invitation Management

We’ve significantly improved the invitation management system with a dedicated pending invitations page. Organization administrators can now:

• View all pending invitations in one place
• Resend invitations that may have been missed
• Cancel invitations that are no longer needed
• Track invitation status

This makes it much easier to manage team onboarding and ensure that all the right people have access to your organization.

Improved Email System

We’ve completely reworked the email sending system to be more flexible and modular. The new system supports multiple email drivers, allowing you to choose the best option for your deployment:

• SMTP driver: For traditional SMTP servers
• Logger driver: For development and testing (logs emails instead of sending)
• Resend driver: Uses the Resend API to send emails
• …and the possibility to easily add more drivers!

The configuration is now more straightforward:

# Use logger driver for development (default)
EMAILS_DRIVER=logger

# Use SMTP driver for production
EMAILS_DRIVER=smtp
SMTP_HOST=your-smtp-server.com
SMTP_PORT=587
SMTP_USER=your-username
SMTP_PASSWORD=your-password
SMTP_SECURE=true

# Or for complex nodemailer configs
# see https://nodemailer.com/smtp/ for more details
EMAILS_DRIVER=smtp
SMTP_JSON_CONFIG={ ... }

# Use Resend driver for production
EMAILS_DRIVER=resend
RESEND_API_KEY=your-resend-api-key

Note: The EMAILS_DRY_RUN environment variable has been removed. Use EMAILS_DRIVER=logger (or any other driver) instead to log emails without sending them.

Other Improvements

• Full French language support
• Added document renaming
• Improved error handling for tag creation
• Cleaned a bug that was preventing users from accessing the password reset page
• Updated the default value of CLIENT_BASE_URL to http://localhost:1221 in Dockerfiles
• Updated dependencies
• …and more!
