+## v0.19.3
+
+- Added the release notes to the console output of `./pocketbase update` ([#3685](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/3685)).
+
+- Added missing documention for the JSVM `$mails.*` bindings.
+
+- Relaxed the OAuth2 redirect url validation to allow any string value ([#3689](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/pull/3689); thanks @sergeypdev).
+  _Note that the redirect url format is still bound to the accepted values by the specific OAuth2 provider._
+
+
+## v0.19.2
+
+- Updated the JSVM generated types ([#3627](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3627), [#3662](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3662)).
+
+
+## v0.19.1
+
+- Fixed `tokenizer.Scan()/ScanAll()` to ignore the separators from the default trim cutset.
+  An option to return also the empty found tokens was also added via `Tokenizer.KeepEmptyTokens(true)`.
+  _This should fix the parsing of whitespace charactes around view query column names when no quotes are used ([#3616](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/3616#discussioncomment-7398564))._
+
+- Fixed the `:excerpt(max, withEllipsis?)` `field` query param modifier to properly add space to the generated text fragment after block tags.
+
+
+## v0.19.0
+
+- Added Patreon OAuth2 provider ([#3323](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/pull/3323); thanks @ghostdevv).
+
+- Added mailcow OAuth2 provider ([#3364](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/pull/3364); thanks @thisni1s).
+
+- Added support for `:excerpt(max, withEllipsis?)` `fields` modifier that will return a short plain text version of any string value (html tags are stripped).
+    This could be used to minimize the downloaded json data when listing records with large `editor` html values.
+    ```js
+    await pb.collection("example").getList(1, 20, {
+      "fields": "*,description:excerpt(100)"
+    })
+    ```
+
+- Several Admin UI improvements:
+  - Count the total records separately to speed up the query execution for large datasets ([#3344](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3344)).
+  - Enclosed the listing scrolling area within the table so that the horizontal scrollbar and table header are always reachable ([#2505](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2505)).
+  - Allowed opening the record preview/update form via direct URL ([#2682](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2682)).
+  - Reintroduced the local `date` field tooltip on hover.
+  - Speed up the listing loading times for records with large `editor` field values by initially fetching only a partial of the records data (the complete record data is loaded on record preview/update).
+  - Added "Media library" (collection images picker) support for the TinyMCE `editor` field.
+  - Added support to "pin" collections in the sidebar.
+  - Added support to manually resize the collections sidebar.
+  - More clear "Nonempty" field label style.
+  - Removed the legacy `.woff` and `.ttf` fonts and keep only `.woff2`.
+
+- Removed the explicit `Content-Type` charset from the realtime response due to compatibility issues with IIS ([#3461](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3461)).
+  _The `Connection:keep-alive` realtime response header was also removed as it is not really used with HTTP2 anyway._
+
+- Added new JSVM bindings:
+  - `new Cookie({ ... })` constructor for creating `*http.Cookie` equivalent value.
+  - `new SubscriptionMessage({ ... })` constructor for creating a custom realtime subscription payload.
+  - Soft-deprecated `$os.exec()` in favour of `$os.cmd()` to make it more clear that the call only prepares the command and doesn't execute it.
+
+- ⚠️ Bumped the min required Go version to 1.19.
+
+
+## v0.18.10
+
+- Added global `raw` template function to allow outputting raw/verbatim HTML content in the JSVM templates ([#3476](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/3476)).
+  ```
+  {{.description|raw}}
+  ```
+
+- Trimmed view query semicolon and allowed single quotes for column aliases ([#3450](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3450#issuecomment-1748044641)).
+  _Single quotes are usually [not a valid identifier quote characters](https://www.sqlite.org/lang_keywords.html), but for resilience and compatibility reasons SQLite allows them in some contexts where only an identifier is expected._
+
+- Bumped the GitHub action to use [min Go 1.21.2](https://github.com/golang/go/issues?q=milestone%3AGo1.21.2) (_the fixed issues are not critical as they are mostly related to the compiler/build tools_).
+
+
+## v0.18.9
+
+- Fixed empty thumbs directories not getting deleted on Windows after deleting a record img file ([#3382](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3382)).
+
+- Updated the generated JSVM typings to silent the TS warnings when trying to access a field/method in a Go->TS interface.
+
+
+## v0.18.8
+
+- Minor fix for the View collections API Preview and Admin UI listings incorrectly showing the `created` and `updated` fields as `N/A` when the view query doesn't have them.
+
+
+## v0.18.7
+
+- Fixed JS error in the Admin UI when listing records with invalid `relation` field value ([#3372](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3372)).
+  _This could happen usually only during custom SQL import scripts or when directly modifying the record field value without data validations._
+
+- Updated Go deps and the generated JSVM types.
+
+
+## v0.18.6
+
+- Return the response headers and cookies in the `$http.send()` result ([#3310](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/3310)).
+
+- Added more descriptive internal error message for missing user/admin email on password reset requests.
+
+- Updated Go deps.
+
+
+## v0.18.5
+
+- Fixed minor Admin UI JS error in the auth collection options panel introduced with the change from v0.18.4.
+
+
+## v0.18.4
+
+- Added escape character (`\`) support in the Admin UI to allow using `select` field values with comma ([#2197](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2197)).
+
+
+## v0.18.3
+
+- Exposed a global JSVM `readerToString(reader)` helper function to allow reading Go `io.Reader` values ([#3273](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/3273)).
+
+- Bumped the GitHub action to use [min Go 1.21.1](https://github.com/golang/go/issues?q=milestone%3AGo1.21.1+label%3ACherryPickApproved) for the prebuilt executable since it contains some minor `html/template` and `net/http` security fixes.
+
+
+## v0.18.2
+
+- Prevent breaking the record form in the Admin UI in case the browser's localStorage quota has been exceeded when uploading or storing large `editor` values ([#3265](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3265)).
+
+- Updated docs and missing JSVM typings.
+
+- Exposed additional crypto primitives under the `$security.*` JSVM namespace ([#3273](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/3273)):
+  ```js
+  // HMAC with SHA256
+  $security.hs256("hello", "secret")
+
+  // HMAC with SHA512
+  $security.hs512("hello", "secret")
+
+  // compare 2 strings with a constant time
+  $security.equal(hash1, hash2)
+  ```
+
+
+## v0.18.1
+
+- Excluded the local temp dir from the backups ([#3261](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3261)).
+
+
+## v0.18.0
+
+- Simplified the `serve` command to accept domain name(s) as argument to reduce any additional manual hosts setup that sometimes previously was needed when deploying on production ([#3190](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/3190)).
+  ```sh
+  ./pocketbase serve yourdomain.com
+  ```
+
+- Added `fields` wildcard (`*`) support.
+
+- Added option to upload a backup file from the Admin UI ([#2599](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2599)).
+
+- Registered a custom Deflate compressor to speedup (_nearly 2-3x_) the backups generation for the sake of a small zip size increase.
+  _Based on several local tests, `pb_data` of ~500MB (from which ~350MB+ are several hundred small files) results in a ~280MB zip generated for ~11s (previously it resulted in ~250MB zip but for ~35s)._
+
+- Added the application name as part of the autogenerated backup name for easier identification ([#3066](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3066)).
+
+- Added new `SmtpConfig.LocalName` option to specify a custom domain name (or IP address) for the initial EHLO/HELO exchange ([#3097](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/3097)).
+  _This is usually required for verification purposes only by some SMTP providers, such as on-premise [Gmail SMTP-relay](https://support.google.com/a/answer/2956491)._
+
+- Added `NoDecimal` `number` field option.
+
+- `editor` field improvements:
+    - Added new "Strip urls domain" option to allow controlling the default TinyMCE urls behavior (_default to `false` for new content_).
+    - Normalized pasted text while still preserving links, lists, tables, etc. formatting ([#3257](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3257)).
+
+- Added option to auto generate admin and auth record passwords from the Admin UI.
+
+- Added JSON validation and syntax highlight for the `json` field in the Admin UI ([#3191](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3191)).
+
+- Added datetime filter macros:
+  ```
+  // all macros are UTC based
+  @second     - @now second number (0-59)
+  @minute     - @now minute number (0-59)
+  @hour       - @now hour number (0-23)
+  @weekday    - @now weekday number (0-6)
+  @day        - @now day number
+  @month      - @now month number
+  @year       - @now year number
+  @todayStart - beginning of the current day as datetime string
+  @todayEnd   - end of the current day as datetime string
+  @monthStart - beginning of the current month as datetime string
+  @monthEnd   - end of the current month as datetime string
+  @yearStart  - beginning of the current year as datetime string
+  @yearEnd    - end of the current year as datetime string
+  ```
+
+- Added cron expression macros ([#3132](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3132)):
+  ```
+  @yearly   - "0 0 1 1 *"
+  @annually - "0 0 1 1 *"
+  @monthly  - "0 0 1 * *"
+  @weekly   - "0 0 * * 0"
+  @daily    - "0 0 * * *"
+  @midnight - "0 0 * * *"
+  @hourly   - "0 * * * *"
+  ```
+
+- ⚠️ Added offset argument `Dao.FindRecordsByFilter(collection, filter, sort, limit, offset, [params...])`.
+  _If you don't need an offset, you can set it to `0`._
+
+- To minimize the footguns with `Dao.FindFirstRecordByFilter()` and `Dao.FindRecordsByFilter()`, the functions now supports an optional placeholder params argument that is safe to be populated with untrusted user input.
+  The placeholders are in the same format as when binding regular SQL parameters.
+  ```go
+  // unsanitized and untrusted filter variables
+  status := "..."
+  author := "..."
+
+  app.Dao().FindFirstRecordByFilter("articles", "status={:status} && author={:author}", dbx.Params{
+    "status": status,
+    "author": author,
+  })
+
+  app.Dao().FindRecordsByFilter("articles", "status={:status} && author={:author}", "-created", 10, 0, dbx.Params{
+    "status": status,
+    "author": author,
+  })
+  ```
+
+- Added JSVM `$mails.*` binds for the corresponding Go [mails package](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/mails) functions.
+
+- Added JSVM helper crypto primitives under the `$security.*` namespace:
+  ```js
+  $security.md5(text)
+  $security.sha256(text)
+  $security.sha512(text)
+  ```
+
+- ⚠️ Deprecated `RelationOptions.DisplayFields` in favor of the new `SchemaField.Presentable` option to avoid the duplication when a single collection is referenced more than once and/or by multiple other collections.
+
+- ⚠️ Fill the `LastVerificationSentAt` and `LastResetSentAt` fields only after a successfull email send ([#3121](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3121)).
+
+- ⚠️ Skip API `fields` json transformations for non 20x responses ([#3176](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3176)).
+
+- ⚠️ Changes to `tests.ApiScenario` struct:
+
+    - The `ApiScenario.AfterTestFunc` now receive as 3rd argument `*http.Response` pointer instead of `*echo.Echo` as the latter is not really useful in this context.
+      ```go
+      // old
+      AfterTestFunc: func(t *testing.T, app *tests.TestApp, e *echo.Echo)
+
+      // new
+      AfterTestFunc: func(t *testing.T, app *tests.TestApp, res *http.Response)
+      ```
+
+    - The `ApiScenario.TestAppFactory` now accept the test instance as argument and no longer expect an error as return result ([#3025](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/3025#discussioncomment-6592272)).
+      ```go
+      // old
+      TestAppFactory: func() (*tests.TestApp, error)
+
+      // new
+      TestAppFactory: func(t *testing.T) *tests.TestApp
+      ```
+      _Returning a `nil` app instance from the factory results in test failure. You can enforce a custom test failure by calling `t.Fatal(err)` inside the factory._
+
+- Bumped the min required TLS version to 1.2 in order to improve the cert reputation score.
+
+- Reduced the default JSVM prewarmed pool size to 25 to reduce the initial memory consumptions (_you can manually adjust the pool size with `--hooksPool=50` if you need to, but the default should suffice for most cases_).
+
+- Update `gocloud.dev` dependency to v0.34 and explicitly set the new `NoTempDir` fileblob option to prevent the cross-device link error introduced with v0.33.
+
+- Other minor Admin UI and docs improvements.
+
+
+## v0.17.7
+
+- Fixed the autogenerated `down` migrations to properly revert the old collection rules in case a change was made in `up` ([#3192](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/pull/3192); thanks @impact-merlinmarek).
+  _Existing `down` migrations can't be fixed but that should be ok as usually the `down` migrations are rarely used against prod environments since they can cause data loss and, while not ideal, the previous old behavior of always setting the rules to `null/nil` is safer than not updating the rules at all._
+
+- Updated some Go deps.
+
+
+## v0.17.6
+
+- Fixed JSVM `require()` file path error when using Windows-style path delimiters ([#3163](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3163#issuecomment-1685034438)).
+
+
+## v0.17.5
+
+- Added quotes around the wrapped view query columns introduced with v0.17.4.
+
+
+## v0.17.4
+
+- Fixed Views record retrieval when numeric id is used ([#3110](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3110)).
+  _With this fix we also now properly recognize `CAST(... as TEXT)` and `CAST(... as BOOLEAN)` as `text` and `bool` fields._
+
+- Fixed `relation` "Cascade delete" tooltip message ([#3098](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3098)).
+
+- Fixed jsvm error message prefix on failed migrations ([#3103](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/pull/3103); thanks @nzhenev).
+
+- Disabled the initial Admin UI admins counter cache when there are no initial admins to allow detecting externally created accounts (eg. with the `admin` command) ([#3106](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3106)).
+
+- Downgraded `google/go-cloud` dependency to v0.32.0 until v0.34.0 is released to prevent the `os.TempDir` `cross-device link` errors as too many users complained about it.
+
+
+## v0.17.3
+
+- Fixed Docker `cross-device link` error when creating `pb_data` backups on a local mounted volume ([#3089](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3089)).
+
+- Fixed the error messages for relation to views ([#3090](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3090)).
+
+- Always reserve space for the scrollbar to reduce the layout shifts in the Admin UI records listing due to the deprecated `overflow: overlay`.
+
+- Enabled lazy loading for the Admin UI thumb images.
+
+
+## v0.17.2
+
+- Soft-deprecated `$http.send({ data: object, ... })` in favour of `$http.send({ body: rawString, ... })`
+  to allow sending non-JSON body with the request ([#3058](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/3058)).
+  The existing `data` prop will still work, but it is recommended to use `body` instead (_to send JSON you can use `JSON.stringify(...)` as body value_).
+
+- Added `core.RealtimeConnectEvent.IdleTimeout` field to allow specifying a different realtime idle timeout duration per client basis ([#3054](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/3054)).
+
+- Fixed `apis.RequestData` deprecation log note ([#3068](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/pull/3068); thanks @gungjodi).
+
+
+## v0.17.1
+
+- Use relative path when redirecting to the OAuth2 providers page in the Admin UI to support subpath deployments ([#3026](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/pull/3026); thanks @sonyarianto).
+
+- Manually trigger the `OnBeforeServe` hook for `tests.ApiScenario` ([#3025](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/3025)).
+
+- Trigger the JSVM `cronAdd()` handler only on app `serve` to prevent unexpected (and eventually duplicated) cron handler calls when custom console commands are used ([#3024](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/3024#discussioncomment-6592703)).
+
+- The `console.log()` messages are now written to the `stdout` instead of `stderr`.
+
+
+## v0.17.0
+
+- New more detailed guides for using PocketBase as framework (both Go and JS).
+  _If you find any typos or issues with the docs please report them in https://github.com/pocketbase/site._
+
+- Added new experimental JavaScript app hooks binding via [goja](https://github.com/dop251/goja).
+  They are available by default with the prebuilt executable if you create `*.pb.js` file(s) in the `pb_hooks` directory.
+  Lower your expectations because the integration comes with some limitations. For more details please check the [Extend with JavaScript](https://pocketbase.io/docs/js-overview/) guide.
+  Optionally, you can also enable the JS app hooks as part of a custom Go build for dynamic scripting but you need to register the `jsvm` plugin manually:
+  ```go
+  jsvm.MustRegister(app core.App, config jsvm.Config{})
+  ```
+
+- Added Instagram OAuth2 provider ([#2534](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/pull/2534); thanks @pnmcosta).
+
+- Added VK OAuth2 provider ([#2533](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/pull/2533); thanks @imperatrona).
+
+- Added Yandex OAuth2 provider ([#2762](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/pull/2762); thanks @imperatrona).
+
+- Added new fields to `core.ServeEvent`:
+  ```go
+  type ServeEvent struct {
+    App    App
+    Router *echo.Echo
+    // new fields
+    Server      *http.Server      // allows adjusting the HTTP server config (global timeouts, TLS options, etc.)
+    CertManager *autocert.Manager // allows adjusting the autocert options (cache dir, host policy, etc.)
+  }
+  ```
+
+- Added `record.ExpandedOne(rel)` and `record.ExpandedAll(rel)` helpers to retrieve casted single or multiple expand relations from the already loaded "expand" Record data.
+
+- Added rule and filter record `Dao` helpers:
+  ```go
+  app.Dao().FindRecordsByFilter("posts", "title ~ 'lorem ipsum' && visible = true", "-created", 10)
+  app.Dao().FindFirstRecordByFilter("posts", "slug='test' && active=true")
+  app.Dao().CanAccessRecord(record, requestInfo, rule)
+  ```
+
+- Added `Dao.WithoutHooks()` helper to create a new `Dao` from the current one but without the create/update/delete hooks.
+
+- Use a default fetch function that will return all relations in case the `fetchFunc` argument of `Dao.ExpandRecord(record, expands, fetchFunc)` and `Dao.ExpandRecords(records, expands, fetchFunc)` is `nil`.
+
+- For convenience it is now possible to call `Dao.RecordQuery(collectionModelOrIdentifier)` with just the collection id or name.
+  In case an invalid collection id/name string is passed the query will be resolved with cancelled context error.
+
+- Refactored `apis.ApiError` validation errors serialization to allow `map[string]error` and `map[string]any` when generating the public safe formatted `ApiError.Data`.
+
+- Added support for wrapped API errors (_in case Go 1.20+ is used with multiple wrapped errors, the first `apis.ApiError` takes precedence_).
+
+- Added `?download=1` file query parameter to the file serving endpoint to force the browser to always download the file and not show its preview.
+
+- Added new utility `github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/tools/template` subpackage to assist with rendering HTML templates using the standard Go `html/template` and `text/template` syntax.
+
+- Added `types.JsonMap.Get(k)` and `types.JsonMap.Set(k, v)` helpers for the cases where the type aliased direct map access is not allowed (eg. in [goja](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/dop251/goja#hdr-Maps_with_methods)).
+
+- Soft-deprecated `security.NewToken()` in favor of `security.NewJWT()`.
+
+- `Hook.Add()` and `Hook.PreAdd` now returns a unique string identifier that could be used to remove the registered hook handler via `Hook.Remove(handlerId)`.
+
+- Changed the after* hooks to be called right before writing the user response, allowing users to return response errors from the after hooks.
+  There is also no longer need for returning explicitly `hook.StopPropagtion` when writing custom response body in a hook because we will skip the finalizer response body write if a response was already "committed".
+
+- ⚠️ Renamed `*Options{}` to `Config{}` for consistency and replaced the unnecessary pointers with their value equivalent to keep the applied configuration defaults isolated within their function calls:
+  ```go
+  old: pocketbase.NewWithConfig(config *pocketbase.Config) *pocketbase.PocketBase
+  new: pocketbase.NewWithConfig(config pocketbase.Config) *pocketbase.PocketBase
+
+  old: core.NewBaseApp(config *core.BaseAppConfig) *core.BaseApp
+  new: core.NewBaseApp(config core.BaseAppConfig) *core.BaseApp
+
+  old: apis.Serve(app core.App, options *apis.ServeOptions) error
+  new: apis.Serve(app core.App, config apis.ServeConfig) (*http.Server, error)
+
+  old: jsvm.MustRegisterMigrations(app core.App, options *jsvm.MigrationsOptions)
+  new: jsvm.MustRegister(app core.App, config jsvm.Config)
+
+  old: ghupdate.MustRegister(app core.App, rootCmd *cobra.Command, options *ghupdate.Options)
+  new: ghupdate.MustRegister(app core.App, rootCmd *cobra.Command, config ghupdate.Config)
+
+  old: migratecmd.MustRegister(app core.App, rootCmd *cobra.Command, options *migratecmd.Options)
+  new: migratecmd.MustRegister(app core.App, rootCmd *cobra.Command, config migratecmd.Config)
+  ```
+
+- ⚠️ Changed the type of `subscriptions.Message.Data` from `string` to `[]byte` because `Data` usually is a json bytes slice anyway.
+
+- ⚠️ Renamed `models.RequestData` to `models.RequestInfo` and soft-deprecated `apis.RequestData(c)` in favor of `apis.RequestInfo(c)` to avoid the stuttering with the `Data` field.
+  _The old `apis.RequestData()` method still works to minimize the breaking changes but it is recommended to replace it with `apis.RequestInfo(c)`._
+
+- ⚠️ Changes to the List/Search APIs
+    - Added new query parameter `?skipTotal=1` to skip the `COUNT` query performed with the list/search actions ([#2965](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2965)).
+      If `?skipTotal=1` is set, the response fields `totalItems` and `totalPages` will have `-1` value (this is to avoid having different JSON responses and to differentiate from the zero default).
+      With the latest JS SDK 0.16+ and Dart SDK v0.11+ versions `skipTotal=1` is set by default for the `getFirstListItem()` and `getFullList()` requests.
+
+    - The count and regular select statements also now executes concurrently, meaning that we no longer perform normalization over the `page` parameter and in case the user
+      request a page that doesn't exist (eg. `?page=99999999`) we'll return empty `items` array.
+
+    - Reverted the default `COUNT` column to `id` as there are some common situations where it can negatively impact the query performance.
+      Additionally, from this version we also set `PRAGMA temp_store = MEMORY` so that also helps with the temp B-TREE creation when `id` is used.
+      _There are still scenarios where `COUNT` queries with `rowid` executes faster, but the majority of the time when nested relations lookups are used it seems to have the opposite effect (at least based on the benchmarks dataset)._
+
+- ⚠️ Disallowed relations to views **from non-view** collections ([#3000](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/3000)).
+  The change was necessary because I wasn't able to find an efficient way to track view changes and the previous behavior could have too many unexpected side-effects (eg. view with computed ids).
+  There is a system migration that will convert the existing view `relation` fields to `json` (multiple) and `text` (single) fields.
+  This could be a breaking change if you have `relation` to view and use `expand` or some of the `relation` view fields as part of a collection rule.
+
+- ⚠️ Added an extra `action` argument to the `Dao` hooks to allow skipping the default persist behavior.
+  In preparation for the logs generalization, the `Dao.After*Func` methods now also allow returning an error.
+
+- Allowed `0` as `RelationOptions.MinSelect` value to avoid the ambiguity between 0 and non-filled input value ([#2817](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2817)).
+
+- Fixed zero-default value not being used if the field is not explicitly set when manually creating records ([#2992](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2992)).
+  Additionally, `record.Get(field)` will now always return normalized value (the same as in the json serialization) for consistency and to avoid ambiguities with what is stored in the related DB table.
+  The schema fields columns `DEFAULT` definition was also updated for new collections to ensure that `NULL` values can't be accidentally inserted.
+
+- Fixed `migrate down` not returning the correct `lastAppliedMigrations()` when the stored migration applied time is in seconds.
+
+- Fixed realtime delete event to be called after the record was deleted from the DB (_including transactions and cascade delete operations_).
+
+- Other minor fixes and improvements (typos and grammar fixes, updated dependencies, removed unnecessary 404 error check in the Admin UI, etc.).
+
+
+## v0.16.10
+
+- Added multiple valued fields (`relation`, `select`, `file`) normalizations to ensure that the zero-default value of a newly created multiple field is applied for already existing data ([#2930](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2930)).
+
+
+## v0.16.9
+
+- Register the `eagerRequestInfoCache` middleware only for the internal `api` group routes to avoid conflicts with custom route handlers ([#2914](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2914)).
+
+
+## v0.16.8
+
+- Fixed unique validator detailed error message not being returned when camelCase field name is used ([#2868](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2868)).
+
+- Updated the index parser to allow no space between the table name and the columns list ([#2864](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2864#discussioncomment-6373736)).
+
+- Updated go deps.
+
+
+## v0.16.7
+
+- Minor optimization for the list/search queries to use `rowid` with the `COUNT` statement when available.
+  _This eliminates the temp B-TREE step when executing the query and for large datasets (eg. 150k) it could have 10x improvement (from ~580ms to ~60ms)._
+
+
+## v0.16.6
+
+- Fixed collection index column sort normalization in the Admin UI ([#2681](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/pull/2681); thanks @SimonLoir).
+
+- Removed unnecessary admins count in `apis.RequireAdminAuthOnlyIfAny()` middleware ([#2726](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/pull/2726); thanks @svekko).
+
+- Fixed `multipart/form-data` request bind not populating map array values ([#2763](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2763#discussioncomment-6278902)).
+
+- Upgraded npm and Go dependencies.
+
+
+## v0.16.5
+
+- Fixed the Admin UI serialization of implicit relation display fields ([#2675](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2675)).
+
+- Reset the Admin UI sort in case the active sort collection field is renamed or deleted.
+
+
+## v0.16.4
+
+- Fixed the selfupdate command not working on Windows due to missing `.exe` in the extracted binary path ([#2589](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2589)).
+  _Note that the command on Windows will work from v0.16.4+ onwards, meaning that you still will have to update manually one more time to v0.16.4._
+
+- Added `int64`, `int32`, `uint`, `uint64` and `uint32` support when scanning `types.DateTime` ([#2602](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2602))
+
+- Updated dependencies.
+
+
+## v0.16.3
+
+- Fixed schema fields sort not working on Safari/Gnome Web ([#2567](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2567)).
+
+- Fixed default `PRAGMA`s not being applied for new connections ([#2570](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2570)).
+
+
+## v0.16.2
+
+- Fixed backups archive not excluding the local `backups` directory on Windows ([#2548](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2548#discussioncomment-5979712)).
+
+- Changed file field to not use `dataTransfer.effectAllowed` when dropping files since it is not reliable and consistent across different OS and browsers ([#2541](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2541)).
+
+- Auto register the initial generated snapshot migration to prevent incorrectly reapplying the snapshot on Docker restart ([#2551](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2551)).
+
+- Fixed missing view id field error message typo.
+
+
+## v0.16.1
+
+- Fixed backup restore not working in a container environment when `pb_data` is mounted as volume ([#2519](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2519)).
+
+- Fixed Dart SDK realtime API preview example ([#2523](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/pull/2523); thanks @xFrann).
+
+- Fixed typo in the backups create panel ([#2526](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/pull/2526); thanks @dschissler).
+
+- Removed unnecessary slice length check in `list.ExistInSlice` ([#2527](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/pull/2527); thanks @KunalSin9h).
+
+- Avoid mutating the cached request data on OAuth2 user create ([#2535](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2535)).
+
+- Fixed Export Collections "Download as JSON" ([#2540](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2540)).
+
+- Fixed file field drag and drop not working in Firefox and Safari ([#2541](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2541)).
+
+
+## v0.16.0
+
+- Added automated backups (_+ cron rotation_) APIs and UI for the `pb_data` directory.
+  The backups can be also initialized programmatically using `app.CreateBackup("backup.zip")`.
+  There is also experimental restore method - `app.RestoreBackup("backup.zip")` (_currently works only on UNIX systems as it relies on execve_).
+  The backups can be stored locally or in external S3 storage (_it has its own configuration, separate from the file uploads storage filesystem_).
+
+- Added option to limit the returned API fields using the `?fields` query parameter.
+  The "fields picker" is applied for `SearchResult.Items` and every other JSON response. For example:
+  ```js
+  // original: {"id": "RECORD_ID", "name": "abc", "description": "...something very big...", "items": ["id1", "id2"], "expand": {"items": [{"id": "id1", "name": "test1"}, {"id": "id2", "name": "test2"}]}}
+  // output:   {"name": "abc", "expand": {"items": [{"name": "test1"}, {"name": "test2"}]}}
+  const result = await pb.collection("example").getOne("RECORD_ID", {
+    expand: "items",
+    fields: "name,expand.items.name",
+  })
+  ```
+
+- Added new `./pocketbase update` command to selfupdate the prebuilt executable (with option to generate a backup of your `pb_data`).
+
+- Added new `./pocketbase admin` console command:
+  ```sh
+  // creates new admin account
+  ./pocketbase admin create test@example.com 123456890
+
+  // changes the password of an existing admin account
+  ./pocketbase admin update test@example.com 0987654321
+
+  // deletes single admin account (if exists)
+  ./pocketbase admin delete test@example.com
+  ```
+
+- Added `apis.Serve(app, options)` helper to allow starting the API server programmatically.
+
+- Updated the schema fields Admin UI for "tidier" fields visualization.
+
+- Updated the logs "real" user IP to check for `Fly-Client-IP` header and changed the `X-Forward-For` header to use the first non-empty leftmost-ish IP as it the closest to the "real IP".
+
+- Added new `tools/archive` helper subpackage for managing archives (_currently works only with zip_).
+
+- Added new `tools/cron` helper subpackage for scheduling task using cron-like syntax (_this eventually may get exported in the future in a separate repo_).
+
+- Added new `Filesystem.List(prefix)` helper to retrieve a flat list with all files under the provided prefix.
+
+- Added new `App.NewBackupsFilesystem()` helper to create a dedicated filesystem abstraction for managing app data backups.
+
+- Added new `App.OnTerminate()` hook (_executed right before app termination, eg. on `SIGTERM` signal_).
+
+- Added `accept` file field attribute with the field MIME types ([#2466](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/pull/2466); thanks @Nikhil1920).
+
+- Added support for multiple files sort in the Admin UI ([#2445](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2445)).
+
+- Added support for multiple relations sort in the Admin UI.
+
+- Added `meta.isNew` to the OAuth2 auth JSON response to indicate a newly OAuth2 created PocketBase user.
+
+
+## v0.15.3
+
+- Updated the Admin UI to use the latest JS SDK to resolve the `isNew` record field conflict ([#2385](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2385)).
+
+- Fixed `editor` field fullscreen `z-index` ([#2410](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2410)).
+
+- Inserts the default app settings as part of the system init migration so that they are always available when accessed from within a user defined migration ([#2423](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2423)).
+
+
+## v0.15.2
+
+- Fixed View query `SELECT DISTINCT` identifiers parsing ([#2349-5706019](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2349#discussioncomment-5706019)).
+
+- Fixed View collection schema incorrectly resolving multiple aliased fields originating from the same field source ([#2349-5707675](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2349#discussioncomment-5707675)).
+
+- Added OAuth2 redirect fallback message to notify the user to go back to the app in case the browser window is not auto closed.
+
+
+## v0.15.1
+
+- Trigger the related `Record` model realtime subscription events on [custom model struct](https://pocketbase.io/docs/custom-models/) save ([#2325](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2325)).
+
+- Fixed `Ctrl + S` in the `editor` field not propagating the quick save shortcut to the parent form.
+
+- Added `⌘ + S` alias for the record quick save shortcut (_I have no Mac device to test it but it should work based on [`e.metaKey` docs](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/KeyboardEvent/metaKey)_).
+
+- Enabled RTL for the TinyMCE editor ([#2327](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2327)).
+
+- Reduced the record form vertical layout shifts and slightly improved the rendering speed when loading multiple `relation` fields.
+
+- Enabled Admin UI assets cache.
+
+
+## v0.15.0
+
+- Simplified the OAuth2 authentication flow in a single "all in one" call ([#55](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/55)).
+  Requires JS SDK v0.14.0+ or Dart SDK v0.9.0+.
+  The manual code-token exchange flow is still supported but the SDK method is renamed to `authWithOAuth2Code()` (_to minimize the breaking changes the JS SDK has a function overload that will proxy the existing `authWithOauth2` calls to `authWithOAuth2Code`_).
+  For more details and example, you could check https://pocketbase.io/docs/authentication/#oauth2-integration.
+
+- Added support for protected files ([#215](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/215)).
+  Requires JS SDK v0.14.0+ or Dart SDK v0.9.0+.
+  It works with a short lived (~5min) file token passed as query param with the file url.
+  For more details and example, you could check https://pocketbase.io/docs/files-handling/#protected-files.
+
+- ⚠️ Fixed typo in `Record.WithUnkownData()` -> `Record.WithUnknownData()`.
+
+- Added simple loose wildcard search term support in the Admin UI.
+
+- Added auto "draft" to allow restoring previous record state in case of accidental reload or power outage.
+
+- Added `Ctrl + S` shortcut to save the record changes without closing the panel.
+
+- Added "drop files" support for the file upload field.
+
+- Refreshed the OAuth2 Admin UI.
+
+
+## v0.14.5
+
+- Added checks for `nil` hooks in `forms.RecordUpsert` when used with custom `Dao` ([#2277](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2277)).
+
+- Fixed unique detailed field error not returned on record create failure ([#2287](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/2287)).
+
+
+## v0.14.4
+
+- Fixed concurrent map write pannic on `list.ExistInSliceWithRegex()` cache ([#2272](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2272)).
+
+
+## v0.14.3
+
+- Fixed Admin UI Logs `meta` visualization in Firefox ([#2221](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2221)).
+
+- Downgraded to v1 of the `aws/aws-sdk-go` package since v2 has compatibility issues with GCS ([#2231](https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/issues/2231)).
+
+- Upgraded the GitHub action to use [min Go 1.20.3](https://github.com/golang/go/issues?q=milestone%3AGo1.20.3+label%3ACherryPickApproved) for the prebuilt executable since it contains some minor `net/http` security fixes.
