The modal held a snapshot of the staged upload, so IQDB results that landed
from the background check queue never appeared until it was closed and
reopened — the only hint a check was running was the e621 request history.
It now follows the live uploads query, so candidates, progress and errors
show up in place.
Related gaps fixed along the way:
- files flagged by the local visual-similarity check were skipped by the
IQDB pass entirely (only 'pending' files were checked), so their modal
could only ever show 'already in your library'; unresolved files of both
statuses are now checked, and the check button shows on visual-match
cards too;
- a check with no candidates posted nothing, leaving 'never checked' and
'checked, no match' indistinguishable; results are stored even when
empty and the modal now says which one it is;
- per-file failures surface in the modal instead of being swallowed, the
modal shows a spinner while the query runs and a check now/re-check
button, and auto-runs skip files already checked (and videos, since IQDB
is image-only).
Backend production code unchanged; tests pin the empty-result recording
(18 library tests, full suite 56 green).
Upload board:
- the tile grid no longer re-sorts itself as files finish (that reshuffled
the list under the cursor); it keeps insertion order, uses auto-fill tiles
of ~150px so they hold a readable size, scrolls inside a 60vh area and no
longer chains the page scroll (overscroll-contain);
- the files currently in flight are pinned in a small live strip above the
grid (name, percent, bar) so progress stays visible while the grid is
scrolled with hundreds of tiles.
Bulk rating: a 'bulk rate' button in the Pending & Unmatched header opens a
large modal with Safe/Questionable/Explicit pills, a tickable thumbnail grid
(Select all / Clear) and one confirm that moves every selected upload into
the library with that rating. Backed by POST /api/uploads/resolve-bulk/
(temp_ids + rating, own rows only): each staged file is resolved as a custom
entry (keeps its staged tags/notes), and already-completed or foreign ids are
reported per entry instead of failing the whole batch. Built for the
358-file backlog.
Tests: 4 bulk-resolve tests (resolution with the rating, input validation,
foreign ids untouched, mixed completed+pending) — full backend suite 53
green. Verified live end to end: staged a file, bulk-resolved it as 'q', saw
J-96 created with that rating, then removed the item, temp row and test
token.
The upload board partitions /api/uploads/ into Pending / Visual similarity /
Auto-uploaded, but the endpoint was paginated at 48 — a 69-file batch
silently lost 21 entries, and the similarity sweep (which reads the same
list back after uploading) only ever saw the first page. The staged-upload
list is now unpaginated: it is a transient per-user set, still limited to
the caller's rows and the uploader role. The page takes a plain array.
Watching progress with dozens of files was also poor:
- the queue uploads three files at a time instead of strictly one at a time;
- the Uploads section now shows a batch bar and 'n/m uploaded · x%' next to
the count, so the overall progress never scrolls out of sight;
- entries are ordered active-first (uploading, queued, failed, done) so the
file being uploaded is always at the top of the grid;
- tiles are larger (4 columns at lg instead of 5);
- the header reads 'Uploading n/m…' and 'Checking n file(s) against IQDB…'
instead of a bare spinner.
Tests: staged-upload list unpaginated past 48, per-user, uploader-only
(3 new; full suite 49 green). Live-checked the bare-array response.
