Over the past 10 days, Gramps Web API (the back-end of Gramps Web) has seen multiple releases and Gramps Web was upgraded to Gramps Web v24.11.0. . This is another fairly major release for the Gramps Web API, because support for Python 3.8 is going away and you will need to upgrade to at least Python 3.9. Both the API and Gramps Web are a part of the Gramps Project (links below).
On a side note, Gramps 5.2.4 is scheduled for release in a couple of days – November 29, 2024. I’m not sure if they will stick to that roadmap, and I’m also not sure about any new features, just bug fixes from what I’ve seen.
Note: Gramps Web API changes are mentioned below.
Gramps Web v24.11.0 Changes (download link at Github):
- The maximum number of images in the relationship chart (previously hard-coded to 50) can now be configured, so you can display large relationship charts with a large number of images! Implemented by @geostag in #524
- Translation update
- Ignore index.html in service worker cache by @MrTrustor in #522
| Gramps Web API v2.5.3 – November 25, 2024 (link – download at Github) |
| A bug fix release that solves a regression introduced in v2.5.0, which breaks the search feature in multi-tree setups. |
This release introduces a new simple /ready endpoint that can be used as a container readiness probe. |

| A performance bottleneck has been removed for the metadata endpoint in multi-tree deployments (#568, #569) |
A new environment variable GUNICORN_TIMEOUT has been added to the default docker image to customize gunicorn’s timeout (which defaults to 180 s if not specified) #570 by @Illia-M |
A regression with the face detection feature has been fixed in the default docker image. Face detection is not supported on the armv7 platform due to missing library support, but works on arm64 (eg. 64-bit Raspberry Pi) |
| Python 3.8 support removed Since Python 3.8 has reach end of life, you will need Python 3.9 or higher to run Gramps Web API starting with this release. |
