Every auto-matched, duplicate or manually resolved upload left a completed
TempUpload row on the board until it was dismissed by hand, so the rows
accumulated without bound and the bulk dismiss (capped at 1000 ids) failed
once there were more. The original app never stored these: they are
notifications, not records.
- complete_temp_upload now appends {filename, J-ID, resolution, post} to a
bounded recent_completions feed on UploadRun and deletes the staged row
- staging duplicates never create a board record either; the create response
carries the J-ID and preview so the SPA can show the card immediately
- status_payload returns the feed (newest first, signed thumbnails) for the
live board; finalize_round counts deleted matches in processed
- resolve/link-bulk return synthetic completion payloads
- migration 0012 adds the field and purges the existing completed backlog
(and any stray staged files) on deploy
- /similar (nav: Similar): drop a file to get the exact MD5 match, the
perceptual matches against the library, and e621 IQDB candidates
(auto-run for images when credentials are configured). Read-only —
nothing enters the library.
- SimilarityCheck model + /api/similarity/ (create/list/retrieve/delete)
with signed preview URLs and an expires_at timestamp.
- Temp files are wiped on startup (AppConfig.ready, file-only so no
database access during initialization), lazily past
SIMILARITY_TTL_MINUTES (default 30, env-overridable), on delete, and
by manage.py cleanup_similarity.
- uploadFile() takes a target path; .env.example documents the TTL.
- MediaItem gains e621_match_status (unknown/matched/not_found/deleted)
and e621_checked_at, backfilled for existing matched items.
- Server-side e621 client (apps/library/e621.py) using the user's stored
credentials, throttled to 2 req/s, with typed errors.
- Matching service: MD5 lookup, manual post linking (flags MD5
mismatches), unlink, metadata refresh, deleted-post detection.
- Detail actions POST /api/files/J-x/match/ and /unlink/ (uploader or
staff only).
- Background library scans: MatchTask + /api/matches/ with missing/all
scopes, progress polling, cancel and stale-task reaping; the scan
counts toward the footer's Active Workers. Same pass available as
manage.py match_e621 for cron.
- Library gains not_found/deleted status filters; the detail page adds
an e621 match card (check / link by post ID / unlink) and the metadata
card warns when a post was deleted on e621.
Backend:
- MediaItem gains search_tags (custom + e621 tags, lowercase) and
has_custom_data, maintained on save with a data migration backfill
- File list search accepts search_type=filename|tags|both (tag search is
word-AND across the flattened tag text) and status=matched|custom|
unknown filters
- New /api/tags/cloud/ endpoint (cached 2 min per guest/auth, invalidated
on item changes and deletions) returning the most-used tags, honouring
guest visibility
Frontend:
- Library sidebar: Filename/Tags/Both selector, status pill toggles
(persisted), and a clickable tag cloud that runs a tag search
- Roadmap updated
Backend:
- Perceptual hashes (aHash/dHash/pHash/wHash via imagehash, no imgdd)
stored on items, computed on upload/download and by the new
compute_visual_hashes command
- Duplicates API: exact duplicates (multi-location items), visual matches
for one item, union-find similarity groups with pagination
- Delete API with ownership/staff checks, per-item and per-copy deletion,
watched-folder path validation; storage overview and temp cleanup;
file list accepts j_ids batches
- Staged uploads are flagged visual_match with their library matches
(threshold via VISUAL_MATCH_THRESHOLD)
- Staff users API: list with upload counts, set role and avatar by J-ID;
User.avatar FK with signed avatar URLs
- Download threads close their DB connection and stale tasks are reaped,
keeping behaviour Gunicorn-friendly
Frontend:
- /duplicates: exact duplicate groups with per-copy delete, visual
similarity controls, search similar to a J-ID, paginated groups with
selection, bulk delete and dismiss
- /delete: storage cards, delete by J-ID with preview grid, temp cleanup
- /users: staff directory with role selects and avatar J-ID inputs
- Nav + command palette entries; top-bar avatar; upload cards and the
metadata modal show library visual matches
Backend:
- DownloadTask model + background thread runner: streams the file with
progress (%, bytes, speed) and a cancel flag, then indexes it, names it
J-<id>.<ext> and applies the e621 metadata
- DownloadTaskViewSet (create/retrieve/cancel) replaces the synchronous
endpoint; the status footer's worker counts now reflect download jobs
- Client download proxy (/api/online/file/) streams an e621 original to
the browser with Content-Disposition: attachment, restricted to the
configured e621 CDN hosts so it cannot be used as an open proxy
Frontend:
- Online detail: progress bar with percentage, transferred size, speed
and cancel while downloading; success links to the new J-ID
- New 'Download to client' button available to everyone (guests too)
Backend:
- TempUpload model: staged files (pending / visual_match / completed /
error) with resolution, e621 payload, custom metadata and IQDB data
- Files land in a temp folder and only move into the watched library
folder once resolved; duplicates resolve immediately without a copy
- Endpoints: stage (multipart), list, retrieve, temp file, IQDB save,
resolve (link to post or custom metadata), discard/dismiss
- cleanup_temp_uploads command for old staged files
- Replaces the old direct-to-library upload endpoint
Frontend:
- Upload page is now a three-column board (Pending & Unmatched /
Visual Similarity Detected / Auto-uploaded & Indexed)
- After upload: MD5s are batch-checked against e621 and matches
auto-complete with full post metadata; remaining files run through
IQDB and move to the similarity column when candidates exist
- Metadata modal with IQDB candidates, post-ID linking and custom
tags/rating/notes; discard and dismiss actions
- e621 client gains fetchPostsByMd5 and iqdbSearch helpers
Roadmap updated with the completed upload items.
Roles:
- JakeBreathild is now staff + superuser (the real account); the 'jake'
smoke-test account was demoted to a regular user
- /me exposes is_superuser and the account page shows an admin badge
e621 metadata:
- MediaItem gains e621_post_id and e621_data (trimmed post payload:
tags by category, rating, score, favourites, comments, sources,
description, pools, relationships, file info, uploader)
- Download to Library accepts the post payload from the SPA and stores
it; the item's custom rating is seeded from the e621 rating when empty
- Library detail shows an e621 metadata card: link to the in-app post,
score/favourites/comments, taxonomy-coloured tags, DText description,
sources and pools; grid cards get an e621 badge and fall back to the
e621 rating for their colour (display_rating)
- Guest visibility now also considers e621 tags, so downloaded explicit
content is hidden from anonymous visitors
Backend:
- User.role (user/uploader/staff) with can_upload; uploads and downloads
gated to uploader+; owners and staff can edit their items
- MediaItem.uploaded_by plus J-<id> identity (serializer, admin,
scan_files --user, first superuser as default owner)
- API resolves J-<id>, bare numeric ids and MD5s; neighbors and lookup
return j_ids
- Guest safety: mirror e621's anonymous default blacklist into Redis
(parses comments, negations and wildcards), flag hidden_from_guests
and filter lists, details and lookups for anonymous users
- POST /api/online/downloads/ writes an e621 file into the watched
folder and indexes it for the uploader
- MariaDB + Redis via docker compose (host ports 3307/6380), PyMySQL
driver shim, Redis cache replacing the file cache; SQLite data
dumped and loaded into MariaDB
Frontend:
- Single /detail/:itemId route with an adaptive shell: J-<id> renders
the library item, bare numbers render the e621 post
- Legacy /view/<md5> and /online/view/<id> redirect to canonical URLs
- Cards expose J-IDs; library custom-data editor is read-only for
non-owners
- Role gating: Upload hidden/blocked for regular users, account shows
the role, guest hint on the library
Backend (Django 6.1 + DRF):
- Token auth with a custom User model (register/login/logout/me)
- Library models (MediaItem, MediaLocation) and REST endpoints
- File list/detail with search, rating filter, sorting, pagination
- Multipart upload with optional rating/tags/notes
- Range-aware media serving (video seeking) and ffmpeg thumbnails
- scan_files management command for the watched folder
Frontend (React 19 + Vite + TypeScript):
- Catppuccin Mocha design tokens from the design docs
- App shell, token persistence, protected routes
- Library grid with filters, file detail with custom data editor
- Upload page with per-file progress via XHR
- Dev proxy to the Django API
