Backend: - POST /api/files/J-x/optimize/ applies a browser-processed file: replaces every copy (renaming when the extension changes), recomputes MD5, size and perceptual hashes, seeds guest visibility; 400 when identical, 409 when the result matches another item, owner/staff only. Frontend (no server-side processing by design): - optimize.worker.ts + pipelines: Mediabunny/WebCodecs for video with a prefer-hardware hint and per-browser codec detection; MozJPEG/OxiPNG/ libwebp (jSquash) for images; gifuct-js+gifenc and UPNG for GIF/APNG. - OptimizeModal: per-file-type options, original vs processed previews with sizes/savings, progress bar with ETA, then Apply (overwrite). - Optimize button on the library detail for the uploader/staff.
J621
Self-hosted media library and e621 archive manager, rebuilt as a React SPA + Django REST API.
Structure
backend/ Django 6 + DRF API (SQLite in dev, MariaDB in production)
frontend/ Vite + React + TypeScript SPA
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
Not wired up yet — planned: Nginx serving the SPA build, /media and /library media
directly, and proxying /api to Waitress/Django. See frontend/ design docs for the UI
specification.
