JakeBreath d0e2901c92 Upload pipeline: staging, MD5 auto-match, IQDB, three-column board
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.

J621 Roadmap / To-Dos

Working list of what's still missing, roughly in priority order. Check items off as they land.

1. Library management

  • Duplicates engine
    • Exact MD5 duplicate detection with grouped results
    • Perceptual similarity (aHash, dHash, pHash, wHash) with threshold slider and algorithm toggles (needs imagehash/imgdd server-side)
    • Visual similarity groups: pagination, "keep one / delete rest", dismiss group
  • Delete & storage page
    • Storage overview (watched folder, media folder)
    • Delete by J-ID with preview grid and bulk selection
    • Temp folder cleanup
  • Library search upgrades
    • Search by tags (custom + e621 tags), not just filename
    • Tag cloud from the library
    • Status filter (matched / not found / deleted / unknown / custom)

2. e621 integration

  • Download progress bar on the detail view
    • Backend download task model (status, progress %, downloaded/total bytes, speed)
    • Progress endpoint the SPA polls; cancel support
    • Frontend progress bar with speed and cancel on /detail/<post>
  • Match local files to e621
    • Match by MD5 from the library detail (manual post ID entry)
    • Batch cache status for the whole library (matched / not_found / deleted)
    • Show match status + e621 metadata in the library (model already supports it)
  • IQDB reverse search
    • Search from a local file (POST /iqdb_queries.json)
    • Show candidate posts to link
  • Follows
    • Follow tags/pools, Followed screens with unseen badges
    • "Followed" nav entry
  • F shortcut to favorite a post, tag finder in the Ctrl+K palette

3. Uploads & ingestion pipeline

Files now stage first and are resolved before entering the library.

  • Backend staging storage
    • TempUpload model: user, md5, filename, temp path, status (pending / visual_match / completed / error), resolution
    • Files land in a temp folder first; only completed uploads move into the watched library folder
    • Pending/upload list endpoint, file serving, discard endpoint
    • cleanup_temp_uploads command for old staged files
  • Auto-upload / auto-match
    • MD5 computed on staging; exact duplicates resolve immediately
    • MD5 batch-checked against e621; matches auto-complete with post metadata stored and rating seeded
  • IQDB similarity on upload (SPA-driven)
    • Automatic + manual IQDB checks with candidate posts
    • "Visual Similarity Detected" state with candidate picker
    • Perceptual-hash comparison against the library (shared with the duplicates engine, still pending)
  • Upload UI
    • Three-column board: Pending & Unmatched / Visual Similarity Detected / Auto-uploaded & Indexed
    • Metadata modal (link to e621 post, IQDB candidates, custom metadata)
    • Per-file progress plus batch processing indicator

4. Staff tools

  • Optimization modal (image quality, GIF/APNG resolution+FPS+compression, video bitrate/presets/two-pass/hw-accel) with original vs processed preview and override
  • Stats dashboard
    • CPU / RAM / GPU / disk usage
    • Active jobs list (this is what makes the footer "Active Workers" real)
    • Live log tail

5. Shell & polish

  • Toasts instead of inline messages / confirm dialogs
  • Mobile drawer polish for metadata panels (design spec §layout)
  • Avatar picker (choose from library)
  • Profile extras (per-user browse preferences)
  • Command palette: tag finder, recent searches

6. Infrastructure

  • Guest blacklist refresh on a timer (refresh_guest_blacklist via cron/systemd)
  • Production setup: build the SPA, serve via Nginx (static + /media + /library), systemd unit for Waitress
  • Automated tests (backend API + frontend components)
  • Backfill e621 metadata for items downloaded before metadata was stored (re-download or a "match" action)

Dependencies / notes

  • Duplicates and upload visual-similarity share the perceptual hashing layer (imagehash/imgdd server-side + a hash cache table).
  • Download progress, optimization jobs and the stats "Active Workers" count all want the same background-task/progress primitive — design it once.
  • IQDB and e621 matching depend on e621 credentials being configured; the SPA already talks to e621 directly where possible.
