I had a good week. I took some time off and then fixed some bugs and worked on some rewrites. Most of the changes are small improvements–you might notice some text updating faster or your gui lagging less during large operations.

If you missed it, I created a new poll last week for the next thing to focus on:

https://poal.me/4bhdd6

If you have an opinion, please do vote. On the 6th of January, I will check for the top two or three things and start spending a bit of time every week working on them in the background. It looks like an IPFS plugin is currently winning.

Also, the Anon who produced some tag archives has made some more at >>1668 . I improved how the client syncs to tag archives this week (the initial sync is pausable/cancellable and won't kill the db/gui so much), so if you use this stuff a lot, let me know how you get on.

more hash searching options

system:hash now also supports md5, sha1 or sha512. The dialog where you enter its value now has a dropdown to select which hash type you want. These new ones work just like sha256–put your hash in in hex, and if it exists locally, it should appear. These additional hashes are only known for local files, so this will not work for remote files.

system:hash is a rarely used predicate, so I didn't bother to write code to update any existing stored system:hash predicates to the new system. If you do happen to have a v187 session that stores one, they will break in v188. Please replace those search pages with 'open selection in new page' pages or whatever before you update.

full list

- if you have custom filters set up, they will now be listed in the normal thumbnail right-click menu, which will expand for them

- 'refresh account' button's event no longer waits for service response on the gui thread

- 'refresh account' button on review services will now re-enable if the call fails

- added 'hide inbox and archive predicates' checkbox to options->default file system predicates. not sure if this is the best place for it!

- system:hash can now query md5, sha1, and sha256

- existing pages with system:hash will break on update. since this is such a rare predicate, I assume this is not a problem!

- improved db hash cross-reference flexibility

- any pausable popups will now explicitly change their text to 'paused' when they are paused

- upload pending popup now has a title, so it should pause a little more sanely

- regenerate thumbnails popup now has a title, so it should pause a little more sanely

- cleaned up some job pause status logic

- upload pending now works on a stream, so gigantic uploads will cause fewer hitches and overall problems

- upload pending code is cleaned and simplified in several ways, with better error handling and progress reporting

- synctotagarchive is now split into a thousand tiny separate jobs and runs on a separate non-db thread. it will no longer lock the db the whole time

- synctotagarchive popup should be a lot more responsive and will specifically give the gui some time to catch up after every chunk of data processed

- synctotagarchive will update pending tags count (and gui stuff will show the pending tags) as it goes

- synctotagarchive is now a pausable and cancellable operation!

- large repository sync jobs should be a little less laggy on final commit

- system:duration now displays its value as a properly formatted milliseconds time delta, rather than just a big int

- profiles now flush to the log immediately

- some cpu-heavy daemon recheck periods have been extended to reduce potential hangs on slower computers

- some repository sync messaging wording and logic is improved (it should report what it is doing more reliably when you are cpu-busy)

- reordered instances of 'waiting politely', so download text/gauge updates should occur before the wait does

- some misc 'waiting politely' logic is improved

- pixiv ugoira is detected and a better error (that will be ignored by the new sub error throttling code, for instance) is produced

- 'uninteresting mime' errors have nicer import status note text

- fixed the 'thumbnail grid background' custom colour option

next week

I took some time off my github queue this week, so I will jump back to that. I also want to work on speeding up some newly identified slow code, and maybe reorganising some maintenance routines so they run in a neater way. I want to ditch the analysis run after every update.

>- fixed the 'thumbnail grid background' custom colour option

I came here not two minutes ago to see if that was a known problem, talk about timing

ohhhh, those fix ups on uploading pending content are so nice, thanks!

Excellent, was looking forward to that.

It's a thousand times better. The gui doesn't freeze anymore, even with large db's, and I get to actually see the progress.(Before I just had to wait a day and hope the client didn't crash while being frozen.)

I have a question though. If I remove a tag archive, will the hashes from it no longer be recognized? The only reason I'm asking is because I was trying to sync rule34xxx, but it crashed.(I let it run for like 2 days) so I have no idea if it worked or not because it does still show in the tag archive list, as if it were synced.

Is Pixiv manga download supported yet?

If it is, I seem to be having trouble downloading Pixiv manga.

Would be nice to have a poll system that supports multiple selections

Even if it's limited to two or three options

or even if you number them through preference

Like our national voting system

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_9hArsJrAg

But instead of least votes out, most votes is something that's worked on, then remove it from preferences, to work on the next most voted until the list is complete

Is the poll coming up with a blank purple page for anyone else?

Is support for Instagram possible?

Also, why are none of the files in this tumblr being fetched? http://giraffethroat.tumblr.com/

If the tag archive is still in the list in the manage services dialog, then I think that means it synced fully. It was all treated as one transaction before, so it either all worked or all failed. The new system is different. The crash was probably because of all the things that were starved of db access for so long suddenly all rushing back in at once and causing a memory problem or something.

You can ensure it by removing it from the list and re-syncing it. If the tags it would want to add are already current or pending, they'll process much faster than if you were adding them, so it won't take nearly as long as it did the first time. And, of course, you can pause it this time around!

>>1679

Unfortunately not.

The current downloader engine can't deal with multiple files coming from a single 'page url' yet, so for pixiv manga I either need to expand the downloader engine's internal queuing system to deal with that or add support for .cbr or some other multi-page mimetype and compiling the manga pages into one of those before passing it on to the file importer.

>>1680

poal.me does support multiple selections, and I think I'll try doing that next time. Do you know of a poll site that supports complicated preferenced choices?

>>1682

poal.me seem to use some javascript or html5-something to create and animate their polls, so if you have any of that disabled I expect it might break for you. Try another browser, I think.

Pretty much any site is technically possible, but I am putting off hardcoding any more site parsers for now. Instead I want to put that time into improving my parser engine's customisability so people will be able to create and share their own 'plug-in' parsers more easily.

That tumblr worked for me just now. I used 'giraffethroat' as my search term. Maybe tumblr's API was not working when you tried it? When you tried it, were you just getting nothing back, or were you getting an error? Please give it another go and let me know what happens.

By the way, I don't know what to do about the Infinity Next beta. I had a look at Next /hydrus/ the other day and it looked ugly and several of the buttons simply didn't work. Today, I figured I would give it another go and log into the Next board owner panel to check it out (with the intention of eventually putting up a 'Let's move to Next even if it is janky, like the https://ghostbin.com/paste/rngmo update suggests' sticky here), but I just got a bunch of CloudFlare 522 errors.

I've been generally following the update posts, but I remain confused about the exact timetable of when data migrations have and have not occurred and when to expect future changes. Given how it has gone so far, I would not be surprised if they put it off again or if the whole thing falls apart in a drama bomb. This is why I do a fast update cycle and always write 'next week' and 'release tomorrow!' stuff. :/

So, I think I will continue using this board because it works. If we get forcibly switched over in a few days or a week and lose some conversations half way through, let's just pick them up again.
