- PNG failed because wasm-bindgen's init only accepts a URL string (or a
module/buffer): passing { module_or_path } broke every PNG optimization.
- GIF/APNG showed flashing colors because patches were written with
putImageData, which ignores the transparency that means "keep the
previous frame". Patches now blend through drawImage with correct
disposal handling, and quantization keeps a transparent palette entry.
- Video no longer downloads the whole file into memory: Mediabunny reads
it with range requests (UrlSource) and the muxer streams into Blob
chunks (StreamTarget) that are assembled with last-write-wins range
merging. BufferTarget held the entire output in memory, which crashed
the tab on large files.
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.
