Full Changelog: v1.2.0...v1.2.1

codam-web-greeter v1.2.0

• Reworked idle logout services. We're no longer solely relying on xprintidle; a temporary timestamp file is created when the screen is locked if the greeter was installed properly through ansible-codam-web-greeter, if using v1.4.0 or higher. This should resolve issues where students sometimes were not automatically logged out after 42 minutes of inactivity.
• Added light theme. Dark theme will remain the default.
• Added optional boxed mode, where the login/unlock form has a semi-transparent background for better readability
• Bumped several server dependencies
• Removed screensaver support due to excessive power usage (refer to the release notes of ansible-web-greeter v1.3.0 for details)
• Added a check to prevent the codam-web-greeter-cleanup systemd service from running on non-student accounts

Due to the newly added light theme and boxed mode, various prebuilt zips will from now on be provided for each Release. Choose the one of your liking, they all behave the same and merely look slightly different.

Full Changelog: v1.1.0...v1.2.0

Full Changelog: v1.0.11...v1.1.0

codam-web-greeter v1.0.11

This release brings compatibility with NodeJS 12 by downgrading to Typescript v4 (from v5). NodeJS 12 is installable by default on Ubuntu 22 LTS, which is what codam-web-greeter aims to support out of the box. Previous versions of codam-web-greeter required NodeJS 14 or higher.
