All search, metadata, and download providers are now exclusively
supplied by extensions. The built-in provider registry that previously
exposed Deezer/Tidal/Qobuz as hardcoded providers is fully removed.
Removed across Go, Dart, Kotlin, and Swift:
- BuiltInProviderSpec class, registry, and all accessor helpers
- SearchProviderAllJSON, GetBuiltInProvidersJSON, ParseProviderURLJSON,
ParseDeezerURLExport Go exports and their platform channel bindings
- Built-in provider items in search dropdown, service picker, and
provider priority UI lists
- provider_ui_utils.dart helper file
Deezer metadata enrichment (ISRC lookup, extended metadata, cover
upgrade) remains fully functional through direct DeezerClient calls
in the download pipeline — these are not part of the provider
registry and are unaffected.
Mark deezer as a retired built-in metadata provider so stale user
priority lists are cleaned up on next launch.
Replace full-queue snapshot writes on every progress tick with a
lightweight delta mode that only includes the active item.
- Progress tick (1s loop) now writes item_delta with only the
active item instead of serializing the entire queue
- Full compact_items snapshots are reserved for important events:
start, pause/resume/cancel, item boundaries, finish, and
service stop/destroy
- Compact items omit large static fields (item_json, track_name,
artist_name) that Dart already has from queue restore
- Snapshot always carries item_ids for adoption correlation
- Dart-side _applyAndroidNativeWorkerSnapshot handles item_delta
as a single-item fallback when items array is absent
- Dart-side _tryAdoptAndroidNativeWorkerSnapshot reads item_ids
as fallback when items is not present
- Add deferred SAF publish: native worker writes to cache, runs
all finalization locally, then publishes once to SAF at the end
- Forward defer_saf_publish through DownloadRequestPayload
Introduce a service-owned download worker that offloads the full
download-and-finalize pipeline to DownloadService on Android, keeping
downloads alive independently of the Flutter UI process.
Key changes:
- Extract SAF download logic from MainActivity into SafDownloadHandler
- Add NativeDownloadFinalizer for Kotlin-side decryption, format
conversion, metadata embedding, ReplayGain, post-processing, and
history persistence
- Extend DownloadService with native queue management (start, pause,
resume, cancel) using coroutine-based worker with AtomicFile snapshots
- Add Dart-side orchestration: snapshot polling, run-id correlation,
adoption on app restart, and fallback to Dart queue
- Forward embedReplayGain, tidalHighFormat, and postProcessingEnabled
through Go backend DownloadRequest struct
- Add nativeDownloadWorkerEnabled setting with UI toggle
- Make DownloadQueueLookup collections unmodifiable
- Add 16 Go supplement test files covering extension runtime, providers,
health checks, lyrics, metadata, HTTP utils, library scan, and more
- Add Dart model/utils test suite (test/models_and_utils_test.dart)
- Update settings.g.dart with deduplicateDownloads serialization
- Add deduplicateDownloads field to AppSettings (default: true)
- Add setDeduplicateDownloads() to SettingsNotifier
- Fix type mismatch in files_settings_page (Object → String cast)
- Run build_runner to regenerate settings.g.dart
- Switch iOS bookmark creation from .minimalBookmark to .withSecurityScope
- Add .withSecurityScope option when resolving bookmarks
- Add downloadDirectoryBookmark field to AppSettings for persisting iOS bookmarks
- Resolve bookmark and startAccessingIosBookmark before queue processing
- Guarantee stopAccessingIosBookmark cleanup via try/finally
- Create bookmark on folder pick in both setup screen and download settings
- Clear bookmark when switching to SAF mode or iOS path normalization
- Fix stale bottom sheet context usage (ctx -> context) in download settings
- Add CollectionArtistEntry model with toJson/fromJson and artistCollectionKey helper
- Create favorite_artists table in SQLite with DB migration v1→v2
- Implement toggleFavoriteArtist/removeFavoriteArtist in LibraryCollectionsNotifier
- Add FavoriteArtistsScreen with list view, empty state, and artist navigation
- Add heart toggle button on ArtistScreen header (reactive via Riverpod selector)
- Integrate favorite artists folder in queue_tab collection grid/list views
- Add 8 new localization strings across all 13 locale files
