install.fish now: - asks for the API origin (default https://j621.rainbow-herring.ts.net) and an optional token when run interactively, or takes --url/--token; - writes ~/.config/j621Greeting/config.fish with mode 600 (it may hold a token), keeps an existing config unless --force/--url is given, and --no-prompt runs fully unattended; - verifies the setup: /health must answer 'ok' and a fastfetch random roll is attempted, reporting the API's own message when it finds nothing; exits non-zero when the backend is unreachable so scripts notice. README documents the prompts/flags, the chmod 600 config, and that the greeting is designed to run without a token (guest mode: unsigned links, guest-visible items only) with a token adding signed links and hidden items. Tested with fish 4.9.3 in throwaway HOME dirs: flag-driven install with a token, interactive install with a piped origin and no token, re-run keeping the existing config, and an unreachable backend exiting 1.
J621
Self-hosted media library and e621 archive manager, rebuilt as a React SPA + Django REST API.
Structure
backend/ Django 6 + DRF API (MariaDB + Redis via docker compose)
frontend/ Vite + React + TypeScript SPA
deploy/ Docker images, compose variants and Tailscale serve configs
extras/ shell integrations (fish_greeting with fastfetch)
Development
Backend
cd backend
source venv/bin/activate
python manage.py migrate
python manage.py scan_files # index the watched folder
python manage.py runserver
Copy .env.example to .env and set WATCHED_FOLDER before scanning.
Frontend
cd frontend
npm install
npm run dev # http://localhost:5173, proxies /api to :8000
Production
Docker: see deploy/ for the two images (SPA on static
nginx, API on gunicorn), the three compose variants (both / frontend-only /
backend-only) behind a shared nginx service and a Tailscale sidecar, and the
public-funnel or tailnet-only serve configs. deploy/push_*.sh builds and
pushes the multi-arch images to the Gitea registry.
Random image endpoint
Used by the SPA's Random page and by shell greetings (fish_greeting + fastfetch):
curl -H "Authorization: Token <token>" \
"https://j621.example.ts.net/api/random/?rating=s,q&fastfetch=1"
{
"j_id": "J-59",
"filename": "J-59.jpg",
"extension": "jpg",
"rating": "e",
"url": "https://j621.example.ts.net/api/files/J-59/raw/?sig=…",
"download_url": "https://j621.example.ts.net/api/files/J-59/raw/?sig=…&download=1",
"thumbnail_url": "https://j621.example.ts.net/api/files/J-59/thumbnail/?sig=…",
"fastfetch": true
}
rating— comma separated subset ofs,q,e(default: any).fastfetch=1, or any request whose User-Agent containsfastfetch, limits the roll topng/jpg/gifso terminals can display it. Images are the only candidates in both modes.urlis absolute, and signed for authenticated callers, so fastfetch can load it without headers. Guests get an unsigned URL and only see guest-visible items./randomand/random/are aliases of/api/random/for scripts. Behind the bundled nginx those aliases negotiate onAccept: browsers get the SPA page, requesters like curl/wget/fastfetch get the JSON./api/random/is the unambiguous path for scripts; 404 when nothing matches the filters.- A ready-made shell greeting that uses this endpoint lives in
extras/fish_greeting/.
