2023-03-31	Remove image functionality	xengineering
	Recipe images are currently complicated to implement and have little use. Probably they will not be covered in the next release.
2023-03-07	Rework edit page dummy	xengineering
	Since there are no good solutions to upload the file and markdown description text via HTML forms the edit page will upload the changes using embedded javascript. The page is now complete apart from the necessary javascript code and the backend handlers.
2023-03-07	Update navigation links	xengineering

2023-02-12	Make add.html a template	xengineering
	This allows to use partial HTML files via Go's templating features.
2023-02-12	Move footer to own template file	xengineering

2023-02-12	Move <head/> section to own template file	xengineering
	This reduces copies of the same HTML code.
2023-02-12	Centralize templating	xengineering
	This makes templating easier and allows to use partial templates.
2023-02-11	Remove most function-inline comments	xengineering
	Docstrings for functions are a good thing. But the inside of a function should be written in a way that is self-explaining. Thus inline comments are just extra stuff to maintain and read.
2023-02-11	Apply go fmt *.go	xengineering
	This auto-applies the recommended Go codestyle.
2023-02-11	Move shutdown code to main.go	xengineering
	This has nothing to do with the database. Because the db is now a global pointer the shutdown code can live in main.go.
2023-02-11	Rework logging	xengineering
	Logging during a request is at the moment not really needed. Printing the config to the log was a stupid idea too.
2023-02-11	Make multiplexer regular handlers	xengineering
	Multiplexer functions used to return closures which are able to handle HTTP requests for historc reasons. Now the multiplexers can be regular HTTP handlers which is simpler.
2023-02-11	Switch to global database pointer	xengineering
	Passing the database pointer around is a lot of text and has no benefit.
2023-02-11	Migrate storage.go to global config	xengineering

2023-02-11	Switch webserver to global config struct	xengineering

2023-02-11	Migrate database to global config struct	xengineering

2023-02-11	Remove obvious comments from main.go	xengineering

2023-02-11	Rename router.go to server.go	xengineering
	This fits better because this file is the central entry point of the Ceres webserver.
2023-02-09	Make config a global struct	xengineering
	Passing the config completly or just partial around via function arguments creates a lot of noice and does not have benefits. The only downside is that it is possible to write the config after initialization but it is realistic that this can be avoided.
2023-02-09	Remove commented code	xengineering

2023-02-09	Split setupRoutes() and runServer()	xengineering

2023-02-09	Migrate to multiplexer concept	xengineering
	This introduces a layered approach to handling HTTP requests: - server layer - path layer - request layer The multiplexer file cares about the path layer. It delegates the request handling to handlers from the request layer.
2023-02-09	Rename runtime_config.go to config.go	xengineering
	It is shorter.
2023-02-09	Remove errors.go	xengineering
	This commit refactors the codebase. The functionality of the error handling is slightly reduced but the benefit are around 80 lines of code which could be removed.
2023-02-08	Test mux concept with index handler	xengineering

2023-02-08	Move all sources to package main	xengineering
	This project is not so big that it needs multiple packages.
2023-02-08	Add new recipe edit page	xengineering
	Recipes should be completely editable and removable. Thus this edit page was added.
2023-01-11	Switch to simple.css	xengineering
	This makes it easier to maintain and it looks better.
2022-11-11	Update CHANGELOGv0.1.0 0.1.0	xengineering

2022-11-11	Document expected environment and dependencies	xengineering

2022-11-11	Document packaging and installation in README	xengineering

2022-11-11	Mention SQL migrations in CHANGELOG	xengineering

2022-11-11	Add documenatation for building and running	xengineering

2022-11-11	Remove build flag recommendations	xengineering
	This was based on recommendations from the Arch Linux wiki. Because they could maybe break something on other distributions they are removed here and maybe re-introduced later in a packaging repository. Furthermore the Makefile is more readable this way.
2022-11-11	Ensure that storage folder exists for debugging	xengineering
	A not existing data/storage folder could break the program with the debug.json config file used. The .gitkeep file which is introduced with this commit ensures that the folder exists.
2022-11-11	Restrict configuration to config file	xengineering
	This drops also the -d flag and the database/user config option. The -d flag used to override specific parts of the config file. This is just confusing behaviour. Instead a new config/debug.json file is introduced with useful default values. Instead of configuring the database user via the database/user entry in the config file, the user is determined from the Linux user of the server process. This enforces that a database user with the same name as the Linux user is configured which is already described in the README.
2022-11-11	Remove systemd related parts	xengineering
	This repository is just about the generic source code. Adapting it to a certain Linux distribution which might be systemd based is up to a packaging repository.
2022-11-11	Remove user setup from initial migration	xengineering
	The initial migration used to add the Ceres database and user. This works well for the production use case but is not that suitable for the development / debugging use case where the default user of the developer should be used. With this commit the generic user setup is explained in the README which can be applied to the developers Linux user aswell as a system user for the production use case.
2022-11-07	Link project page and changelog in README	xengineering

2022-11-07	Add CHANGELOG	xengineering
