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)
Files added through the upload pipeline and Download to Library are
renamed to their J-ID right after indexing, so every new library file is
traceable by its identifier (scanned files keep their existing names).
index_file now returns the created location so callers can rename it;
the location record is updated to the new path.
- 'dismiss all' clears every indexed record at once
- Indexed cards show the actual file preview: completed records now get a
signed library media URL (raw for images, thumbnail for videos) so
<img>/<video> tags can load it, including items hidden from guests
- Media raw/thumbnail endpoints accept the signature for anonymous
requests and fall back to the normal guest-filtered path otherwise
- Guest blacklist keeps a persistent Redis mirror: an expired TTL or an
unreachable e621 keeps the last successful list instead of falling
back to the small local list
- IQDB responses carry no preview/file data, so candidates only showed an
ID; the SPA now enriches them with one batched posts lookup (preview,
rating, score, favourites, dimensions, tag preview)
- Candidate tiles are selectable instead of instantly resolving: picking
one shows its info and an explicit 'Link selected post' button
- Linking a post now fetches the e621 original into the library and
drops the staged upload; when the staged file's MD5 already equals the
post's file, the staged copy is moved instead (identical bytes)
- Keep the file URL in stored e621 metadata; sanitize the new candidate
fields server-side
- Staged files are now served through a signed URL (Django signing, 24h)
so <img>/<video> tags can load previews without an Authorization
header; the file endpoint accepts header auth or a valid signature,
rejects tampered signatures, and still scopes access to the owner
- Serializer responses now carry the request context so URLs are signed
per user
- Add .webp to the allowed extensions (backend + upload hint)
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:
- POST /api/files/lookup/ reports which MD5s are already in the library
Frontend:
- e621 client extended with post/tag/favorite types and helpers: post
search, post detail, batch posts by id, tag autocomplete, toggle
favorite
- /online: tag search with autocomplete, post grid with rating colors
and in-library badges, numbered pagination, page tag cloud, blacklist
panel and filtered counts from /users/me.json, anonymous hint
- /online/view/🆔 media viewer (sample or original, video support),
taxonomy-colored tags by category, specs sheet, favorite/unfavorite,
description, sources, pools and parent/children thumbnails
- Shared CollapsibleSidebar extracted from the library page; Online
added to the nav, command palette and sidebar toggle
Backend:
- User model gains e621_username / e621_api_key / e621_base_url
- GET/PUT /api/auth/e621/ for the owner's credentials; /me exposes only
the username and a configured flag, never the key
Frontend:
- e621 client core: Basic auth, _client param (browsers cannot set a
User-Agent), serialized queue throttled to 1 request/second, readable
error mapping
- Account screen (/account): username, API key with reveal toggle,
base URL (e621 / e926 / custom), Save + Test connection
- Credentials are fetched from the backend and held in memory only,
cleared on logout
Backend:
- GET /api/files/{md5}/neighbors/ returns previous/next items in the
current ordering (name, size, created_at) for keyboard navigation
Frontend:
- / focuses the library search input
- D downloads the file on the detail page
- [ and ] navigate to the previous/next item; hint shown on the page
- Ctrl/Cmd+K opens a command palette (navigation, toggle filters,
focus search, log in/out); Escape closes it
- Sort order now persists alongside the other library filters so
prev/next stays consistent
- OS name comes from /etc/os-release (e.g. 'CachyOS Linux'), mirroring
the original app's os_utils; macOS/Windows get proper names too
- Status pill shows the name as-is instead of uppercasing it
- Removed the watched-folder path next to the logo; it now appears only
in the footer strip (spec updated to match)
Backend:
- apps.core with GET /api/status/ (env, git hash, OS, watched folder,
worker counts) and a TimingMiddleware adding X-Server-Time-Ms
- status endpoint reports its own server-side assembly time
Frontend:
- top bar shows the storage line (watched folder) and a status pill
with ENV, git hash, host OS, server time (e621 time once it exists)
- fixed 32px footer strip: storage path, active workers, build version
- collapsible filter sidebar: closed by default, Ctrl/Cmd+B toggle,
overlay drawer with backdrop blur under 1024px
- rating filters, per-page and sidebar state persist in localStorage
- Spec header, status pill and footer now document '<env> @ <hash>'
instead of invented release numbers
- Backend settings expose GIT_COMMIT_HASH / APP_ENV / APP_VERSION,
mirroring the original app
- Frontend bakes the short hash in at build time and shows it in the
top bar
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
