Changelog

    Misc:

    Many of the simple system predicates (width, size, duration, etc..) now support the '≠' (not equal) operator! searches only support one of these at once for now (e.g. you can't say height != 640 AND height != 1080--it'll pick one of these pseudorandomly)
    The watcher page list right-click menu now has 'copy subjects', which copies the selected watchers' 'subject' texts to clipboard
    The advanced file deletion panel now remembers which reason you last used. it remembers if you selected the 'default' value up top versus specific reason text, and if you enter custom text, it remembers that for next time too
    The network job widget now shows the current URL as tooltip over the progress gauge, and under the cog menu, where clicking it copies it to clipboard
    The various menu labels across the program should now show ampersand (&) correctly (e.g. in URLs)
    The way byte sizes (like 21.7KB or 1.24GB) above 1KB are rendered to strings has been overhauled. they now generally show three significant figures. a new EXPERIMENTAL option in 'gui' options panel lets you change this, but only 2 or 3 are really helpful
    If a repository clears the message on your account, you no longer get a popup telling you 'hey, new message from server x: ...'
    The new ≠ system preds should be parseable (but be careful, likely buggy) using the client api's new system predicate parser, with '≠', '!=', 'is not', or 'isn't'
    Cleaned up some old data presentation methods and improved how client specific options are patched in to base hydrus string conversion code

    Ui freezes:

    Session pages can now detect if they have had no saveable changes since a certain time. they use this ability to skip redundant session save CPU time for pages with no changes since the last session save
    For now, since the smallest atom of the session system is a whole page, gallery and watcher pages can only save time if every downloader in the page has had no changes, so in their case this optimisation mostly only applies to completely finished/paused pages. it is still better to have several medium size downloader pages than one gigantic one
    A new database maintenance task ensures that optimisation cannot accidentally lose a page (from something like an unfortunate timing of a session save after many manual session deletes)
    The existing optimisation that skips 'last session' save on no changes now initialises its data as the 'last session' is first loaded (rather than on first save), meaning that if there are no changes while the client is open, no new 'last session's will be saved at all
    Misc session save code cleanup

    Database repair, mostly boring:

    A client can now boot with client.caches.db missing and will rebuild that file. almost all of its tables are now able to automatically repopulate (issue #975)
    All the new modules I have been working on are now responsible for their own repair. this includes missing indices, missing tables, and table repopulation where possible. modules now know which of their tables are critical to a boot, what version each table and index was added, and now manage both initial and later-created service tables and indices
    Essentially, all newer database repair code is now modularised rather than hardcoded. the repair and creation code actually now share the same table and index definitions. the code is more reliable, checkpoints its good work in case of later failure, and will be much easier to maintain and expand in future
    Lots of module repair and initialisation code is refactored and generally given a full pass
    The core mappings cache regeneration routine now takes transaction checkpoints throughout its job to save progress and reduce journal size
    Master definition critical error detection code is no longer hardcoded!
    Mapping storage repair code is no longer hardcoded!
    Similar files repair code is no longer hardcoded!
    Parent or sibling cache repair repopulation is no longer hardcoded!
    The local hashes cache module can now repopulate itself during repair
    The notes fast search table can now repopulate itself during repair
    The similar files search tree table can now rebuild itself during repair

Changelog

    Misc:

    The client no longer regularly commits a full garbage collection during memory maintenance. this debug-tier operation can take up to 15s on very large clients, resulting in awful lag. various instances of forcing it after big operations complete (e.g. to encourage post-subscription memory cleanup), are now replaced with regular pauses to allow python to clean itself more granularly. this may result in temporary memory bloat for some very subscription-heavy clients, so feedback would be appreciated
    Right-clicking on a single url import item in a 'file log' now shows you all the known hashes, parsed urls, and parsed tags for that item. I hope this will help debug some weird problems!
    All multi-column lists across the program now convert an enter/return key press into an 'activate' command, as if you had double-clicked. this should make it easier to, for instance, highlight a downloader or shift/ctrl select a bunch of sibling rows and mass-delete (issue #933)
    The subscription gap filler button now propagates file import options and tag import options from the subscription to the downloader it creates (issue #910)
    A new 'mpv report mode' now prints a huge amount of mpv debug information to the hydrus log when activated
    Improved how mpv prints log messages to the hydrus log, including immediate log flushing
    Fixed a bug that meant the hydrus server was not saving custom update period or anonymisation period for next boot. thank you for the reports, and sorry for the trouble! (issue #976)
    Cleaned up some database savepoint handling after a serious transaction error occurs
    The client api now ignores any parameter with a value of null, as if it were not there, rather than moaning about invalid datatypes (issue #922)

    Url classes:

    The edit url class dialog is now broken into two notebook pages--'match rules', which strictly covers how to recognise a url, and 'options', which handles url storage, conversion, and normalisation
    Url classes can now support single-value parameters (a parameter with just a value, not a key/value pair). if turned on, then at least one single-value parameter is required to match the url, and multiple are permitted. a checkbox in the dialog turns this on and a string match lets you determine if the url class matches the received single value params
    Added unit tests to test the new single-value parameter matching
    Fixed an issue where StringMatch buttons were not emitting their valueChanged signal, guess how I discovered that bug this week
    Fixed the insertion of default parameter values when the URL Class has non-alphabetised params
    Refactored and cleaned up some related parsing and string convertion code into new ClientString module

Changelog

    smoother menubar updates:

    improved the way the menubar menus update. rather than generating a whole new (e.g. 'pages') menu and replacing the existing out of date one, now there is a static menu skeleton that has subsections or labels updated in place. this means fewer objects changing, less flicker/jank, and should allow you to upload pending even if you have, say, a bunch of subscriptions running

    misc:

    thanks to a user's help, the filetype parser now detects pngs (this mostly happens during import) much faster! the problem previously was determining if a png is actually an apng--figuring out if they are truly apngs is now done with very fast file header scanning, rather than the previous method that booted ffmpeg. this brings filetype parse time for pngs down from 50-150ms to 1-2ms
    getting apng metadata is also now faster. num_frames is now pulled from the file header, it no longer has to be manually counted by ffmpeg
    clicking the session weight item in the 'pages' menu now gives you more detailed info on your session weight, including on currently closed pages in the undo list
    stripped out a lot of ancient wx-era safety code that stops the client from doing certain UI work while it is minimised or minimised to tray. also brushed up some ugly update routines for menus refresh and modal message presentation that could lead to a pile-up of updates as soon as the client was unminimised, causing lag or freezes. with luck, the client should be better about restoring itself from minimised to system tray. if you minimise to tray, feedback on how this works out for you would be appreciated
    when a network job stalls with the 'this domain had some errors recently' message, the cog menu on the widget now allows you to 'scrub domain errors' and try again immediately
    if your search has system:limit, then any tag search you type in the autocomplete will now search the database, not your thumbnails. previously, the hack to enable this behaviour was to flip 'searching immediately' off. let's see if this new behaviour is ultimately confusing/annoying, I am mixed on it and think this subtle search option needs more thought and UI to make it more obvious and user friendly

    if you have autocomplete tag search typed, and results from thumbnails displayed, and you flip 'searching immediately' off, the search will now automatically update and give you full database numbers immediately
    help:

    I moved 'searching with wildcards' from the advanced help to the 'more getting started with files' help here: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/help/getting_started_more_files.html
    I also wrote a more detailed description of what the autocomplete dropdown buttons do in that page
    I also wrote a brief description of how a system:limit query will try to clip according to the current file sort, getting the n 'biggest files' and so on

    boring code cleanup:

    cleaned some network job widget update calls
    improved some misc autocomplete search status tracking
    improved some account object permission checking and tests. accounts now never say they have permissions (e.g. if you click the 'see account permissions' button on review services) if they are banned or expired
    file and pages menus now uses the new update routine
    pending menu now uses the new update routine, with an emphasis on anti-jitter so you can interact while it is updating
    database, network, service, and undo menu now use newer async update code and also use the new update routine
    cleaned up help and tags menu init code
    the signal that causes the pending menu to update is now only sent on tag changes if the tag service is a repository (previously, local-only updates were janking this for no reason)
    the pending menu now updates its sibling/parent numbers when repository processing causes a clever row change to stuff you have pending
    also, some menubar items that only show when in advanced mode now update their visibility when advanced mode is flipped on or off
    misc menubar code cleanup and improvements

Changelog

    Quality of life:

    Under options->files and trash, you can now govern whether the advanced file deletion dialog remembers action and reason. being able to save action (trash, physical delete, vs physical delete and clear history) is new, default off for now, and won't always save (if you are currently set to trash, but the next dialog doesn't have trash as an option, then it won't overwrite to physical delete). if you try it out, let me know how you like it
    A new option under 'network->pause' now lets you always boot the client with paused network traffic
    The main file import object now stores primary urls (such as post and file url) separately from source url (which is produced by many parsers and typically refers to another website). a new checkbox in 'file import options' (when in advanced mode) now allows you to not associate primary urls separately to source urls (which is useful in some one-time technical jobs that talk to some unusual proxy etc...)
    The new import object right-click menu that shows urls now separates primary and source urls, and also shows any referral url
    When you flip between two images in the dupe filter, the zoom preservation calculation, which previously only locked to the same width, now tries to choose width or height based on the relative ratios of the two images to keep both images completely in view on a canvas zoom start. it should ensure that lower watermark banners stay in view and don't accidentally spill over the bottom of your monitor
    Moved popup toaster options from 'gui' options page to the new 'popup' page
    Added options for whether the popup toaster should update while the client is minimised and while the mouse is on a different monitor than the main gui window. these options now default to false, so if you have any trouble, please try turning them back on
    A new shortcut action in the 'global' set now flips profile mode on and off. please note for now 'global' only works on main gui and media viewer--I will add a hook to every window in the future!

    Bug fixes:

    You now cannot start an 'upload pending' job for a service more than once at a time. the menu is now disabled for each service while uploading is happening
    Fixed a bug in media load where if the file was not in a specific domain (i.e. somewhere in all known files), its tags would not show implied parents. for non-specific files, this calculation happens on the fly, and previously it was only doing siblings
    Fixed a bug from the somewhat recent file deletion update that meant many files' custom deletion reasons were being overwritten to 'No reason given' when trash was clearing. I am sorry for the inconvenience!
    Fixed an issue with parsing 'string' from html 'script' tags (and perhaps some other 'meta' tag types) on recent versions of the built hydrus release. this should fix the newgrounds gallery parser
    Fixed some gallery parsing error handling, for when the actually fetched url differs from the original and cannot be parsed, and when the actually fetched url redirects straight to a file page from a 1-length search result

    Update file handling bug fixes:

    When repository processing runs into an update file problem, it now specifies if the file was content or definitions type
    When the database gathers updates to process, it discriminates between definitions and content updates more carefully
    When a hydrus update file goes through file maintenance and changes filetype, the repository update progress tracker now 'reregisters' that file, updating what content types it can expect from it and clearing out incorrect data
    During normal update file registration, incorrect old data is now cleared out

    Boring cleanup:

    Cleaned some of the positioning code that places icons and text on thumbnails, removing hardcoded numbers and letting custom icons position better
    Cleaned some import url tracking, checking, and association code
    Refactored profile mode and query planner mode switching up out of UI code into the controller
    Added a hefty unit test to test that siblings and parents are transitively applied to mappings correctly for files outside and inside specific file services, and for tag sync and the normal tag pipeline
    Refactored some database file maintenance code to decouple the queue from the worker

Changelog

This is a fix of the original 459, which had a build problem!


Hydrus Network 459

    Main highlights:

    To help debugging from screenshots etc..., the client now puts its version name on every window title, like 'review services - hydrus client 459'. (issue #447)
    The 'main gui title' option is reset and replaced with 'application display name' this week. it now alters the 'hydrus client' part on every window title. the actual 'main gui title' is now "main" lmao
    Wrote a new help document, 'help my media files are broke' in the db directory. this collects the different recovery routines I have developed while helping users after drive failure or other problems cause many missing files or a desynced database and file storage structure. I will be pointing people to this in future, please feel free to do the same
    Two new file maintenance jobs are added: for 'presence' and 'integrity' checks, you can now do 'if has URL, then try to redownload, else remove record'. this tidily combines the two more specific jobs that are commonly run after a hard drive problem. the 'presence' version is now the default selected job and recommended for most simple situations
    A new easy-select button on the review file maintenance panel lets you select all media files
    I put some more time into the new duplicate filter zoom locking calculation. thank you to users who sent in examples of my code not working well--I have scaled back what it tried to do. now it will tend to heigh-lock for landscape images and width-lock for everything else unless you are currently viewing the default zoom and that roughly fills the canvas on a dimension and doing the default lock would cause the next image to spill over the screen. the 'solution' here hence targets the 'watermark spilled over' problem more specifically and deals with all combinations of landscape/portrait A/B/canvas better. I'd still like to introduce some zoom locking options here for regular browsing, but pinning down what exactly is useful is trickier than I expected
    The edit tag import options panel now shows 'THIS CURRENTLY GETS NO TAGS' warning red text if it is non default and no tags are set to parse and there are no additional tags
    The status bar now shows '1,234 files in 20 collections' when you have just collections or just collections selected (previously, it wrongly said '1,234 collections') (issue #807)
    MacOS clients will now show dialog-created menus in a debug dialog unless the new BUGFIX checkbox under 'gui' options page is unchecked. this should help Big Sur users who are unable to interact with menus created in dialogs like manage tags or manage services. I threw this together, so let me know how this works for you! (issue #986, issue #858)
    The program now waits specifically for currently running subscriptions to stop work and save themselves before moving on with further shutdown tasks. hand in hand with this, subscriptions are now faster at stopping work on client exit, even when they have no popup message (through which some hackery dackery shutdown signals are sent otherwise) (issue #790)
    Physically deleting thousands of files in one go should no longer lock up the file manager and other systems for ages--physical delete is now serialised and processed on a new threaded mainloop, so it doesn't matter how fast the requests come it, it will chunter at a polite speed and take breaks and should not choke other consumers and freeze up other 'things are great, you can start new work' status checks

    Network job improvements:

    Hydrus network jobs now try to resume incomplete responses (previously they just dumped out and tried again from the beginning). if a server provides less content than it said it would, or it explicitly gives us a partial response, we now resume at that point! should fix dowmnloading of longer videos on 8chan.moe
    Hydrus network jobs now send a range header by default, letting servers return 206 (partial content) if they wish
    SSL errors (cert verification and similar) are now caught in the network engine separately to generic connection errors. they will not be reattempted, and the failure note will display specific error info
    Refactored some response header parsing code, cleaning up how some variables are initialised
    Greatly improved the job reattempt system, resetting variables more neatly
    Improved some response range and content length calculations

    Smaller items, mostly bug fixes:

    Fixed a recent typo bug that caused the edit url class dialog to always spawn with 'file url' type set. sorry, this was stupid! (issue #982)
    The edit url class dialog now sends the 'normalised' url as the example text for the api and referral string converter edit panels
    Fixed the new advanced file deletion 'remember last' checkboxes in options->files and trash. they weren't hooked up right, sorry!
    Fixed the tag menu's siblings submenu's copy command where it says 'ideal is "xxx" on: yyy'. despite the correct label, this was sometimes copying a different service's ideal (issue #855)
    Fixed the 'media zooms' text input under options->media not turning off the 'red' invalid mode once its text is again valid
    When you cancel the 'edit parser' dialog, it shouldn't say 'it looks like you made changes' so much when you didn't make any. the 'has changes' test now ignores some background test data updates that may have happened (issue #875)
    If a JSON parsing formula is given HTML, the 'cannot parse' error now tries to detect this and present a better error text (issue #888)
    I think I fixed a problem in the new bytes rendering calculation (where it goes 1018825 to "995KB") where on some unlucky edge-case numbers it could non-determinitively choose different sig figs (e.g. flipping between 994.9KB and 995KB)
    Fixed a couple of file move actions that were unable to move across Windows partitions when the timestamp was before 1980-01-01 (issue #989)
    Mr bones now recognises you are not a new user if you deleted all your files. you can never exit
    After some testing, it seems like large 'drop table' operations in SQLite sometimes work within seconds but generally take far longer, often working as slow as 10MB/s (and I just talked to a guy for whom it took days(!!!). writing a fix to make 'delete service' always run fast for something as large as the PTR will take planning and work, so for now I have attached a warning note to the delete service confirmation dialog
    Updated the file maintenance review panel to newer async code
    Fixed a typo bug in URL export when a file is missing/bad in file maintenance

    client api:

    /add_tags/add_tags now supports 'service_keys_to_tags' and 'service_keys_to_actions_to_tags'.
    /add_urls/add_url now supports 'service_keys_to_additional_tags'
    /get_files/file_metadata now returns with duplicates of the tag structures using 'service_keys_to_statuses_to_(display_)tags'
    added unit tests for the above
    updated the client api help for the above
    I recommend you move from 'service_names_to...' to 'service_keys_to...' when convenient. 'names' was an ugly old hack, and while I am not in a rush to delete it from the client api, I think I will eventually
    client api version is now 21

    apngs and clips:

    fixed a problem where the new apng metadata parsing was not completely hooked up, so num_frames was not being parsed correct for the final metadata row even when 'apng' filetype was, leading to some odd '1 frame apng' situations
    apng parsing now recognises more kinds of apngs--if one has an unusual scaling chunk in the header, this is recognised and the correct animation chunk searched for
    clip files now get resolution on import and a thumbnail! big thanks to the user who dug up how to extract this--it actually comes from a sqlite file embedded in the clip! (issue #996)
    on update, all apngs and clips will be scheduled for metadata rescan, and all clips will be scheduled for thumbnail generation

    misc:

    right-clicking a selection tag and choosing 'select->files with x tag' now obeys the current tag domain (previously, it forced 'all known tags'). so, if you want to quickly select just the files with 'samus aran' on 'my tags', it should be doable
    the new 'partial' download resumer system will now tolerate two successive empty chunks before throwing a 'this chunk was empty' error. it seems some servers will randomly give an empty chunk at times during 206 transfers
    cancelling the slideshow custom time dialog no longer raises an error
    after the build boot problem last week, updated the opencv version in requirements.txts--we are now officially >=4.0.0, <=4.5.3.56. it looks like pyinstaller needs a patch for 4.5.4.58 to work, so we'll wait for that. I am improving my weekly test routine to try to catch this in future
    also, the windows build no longer includes two copies of an opencv dll. turns out PyInstaller finds this dll ok now (putting it in another location) and it doesn't need to be explicitly added during build
    added a new help file to the db dir for users who experience crashes as soon as they load videos in mpv when using WASAPI or ASIO drivers. thanks greatly for the user who figured out the mpv.conf solution here (issue #973)
