I had a mixed week, but I fixed some things, and there is more filetype support. There are a couple of database fixes this week, so anyone with a large database, including anyone who syncs or has synced with the PTR, can expect the update to take several minutes.

Full changelog: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/changelog.html

highlights

Thanks to a user, the program now supports gzip (a type of archive) and xcf (GIMP savefiles)! SVG thumbs also look correct now if you have 'fill' thumbnails. Since the 'filetype selector' widget is getting pretty stacked, I'm going to rewrite it very soon, and I think we are going to have one or more groups, maybe spitting raster/vector and grouping 'image' application types like psd, krita, and xcf, together.

I had an ok week. There's a new selector for filetypes (in system:filetype and File Import Options), a new database-deletion routine that makes deleting large services like the PTR instant, and a variety of small bug fixes.

The release should be as normal tomorrow.

I had a good couple weeks working on better petition-processing workflow for repository janitors. Most users won't see this, so you can ignore most of this release!

krita and SVG

Thanks to two different users, hydrus gets Krita (.kra, .krz) and SVG (.svg) support today. Both formats also get thumbnails!

There's also some quality of life improvements. There's a little layout improvement. The current petition type you are working on is now highlighted with a '*' on the respective button. The page also remembers what type of petitions you were looking at, and what you set the 'show this many files' widget to, and the new 'how many petitions to fetch' value.

Now, what works in my small testing environment may struggle at scale, especially the PTR. I dump a good amount of new CPU into selecting this new petition list, so maybe fetching 40 petitions takes too long and you have to turn it down to 10, or maybe this lags out when you get a 100,000 mapping petition, or maybe the queue order is borked somehow. This is just a first version of this new system, so let me know how it works and I'll tune it.

And there is more I already want to do. The new list could do with a right-click menu for copying account id and retrying failures, and some of the widgets (sort-by, num files) could do with some show/hide tech on petition types they don't apply to, and it would be nice to have some shortcuts working. I also think the management panel is too tall now, so maybe I'll fold it somehow into tabs, or allow a double-wide panel, or just have more aggressive show/hide or resizable layout? In any case, I'll keep banging away at this.

next week

I've got a ton of normal small work piled up, so I'm back to that for a while. Thanks for your patience.

I had a mixed week, a bit short on productivity. Despite a light changelog, there's a neat fix to the 'this tag is still in my autocomplete even though I deleted it from everything' problem, and, thanks to user help, support for importing XCF and gzip files.

The release should be as normal tomorrow.

Subscription popup windows should update far more smoothly and frequently this week. Some of the 'should I check for new text?' logic was broken when I embedded the popup toaster into the main UI a few months ago--it is fixed.

I had a good productive week. I fixed many bugs, including some bad bitmap pasting and the worst media viewer note layout issues, improved some quality of life, and added file rating viewing and editing to the Client API. There’s also some user work, including .sai2 file support.

The release should be as normal tomorrow.

is to possible to sync the public tag repo while using the client?


Anonymous Board owner 06/03/2023 (Sat) 20:18 Id: 3ef56b [Preview] No.1499 del
>>1498
Yes--if you check the PTR's page under services->review services, it should have 'process now' at the bottom. The button is only clickable if there is pending work to do and everything seems good to go. Hit that, and the client will start grinding processing work. It makes a popup with progress and current speed, too. It won't work as hard as it would in idle time (in order to not blat your browsing too hard), but it should let you keep using the client. You'll get up to 500ms extra lag on any changes you make, and every 90 seconds or so you might get a few seconds more lag as it saves to disk.

other (advanced) highlights

The v527 update went ok, no massive problems, but I wish I had done a bit more testing. Some Win 10 users are getting a two-second delay on opening any page due it seems to a Qt bug that got fixed in the next update, and putting these new libraries in front of more eyes would have caught this. Therefore, I have made a 'future' beta build that is the same code as the normal release, but it uses the newer library versions I am planning to next update to, for instance Python 3.10 instead of 3.9 and Qt 6.5.0 rather than 6.4.1. I am not sure how often I will put these future previews out--maybe once a month, maybe every week--but for now, if you had any weird issues with the recent update like the two-second bug, please check out the 'future' version of last week's 528 here: https://github.com/hydrusnetwork/hydrus/releases/tag/v528-future-1 . I'd also like to hear from anyone who has an older or unusual system and just wants to try it out. I particularly want to hear about problems--if you need to perform a clean install to update, if you have an older OS and it straight up won't boot, just any feedback on what is good and bad, and I can tweak it before I roll the updates into the master branch.

Thanks to a user, the HTML parsing formula now lets you search the previous or next siblings of a tag (instead of just descendants or ancestors). If you know you need the 2nd 'p' tag after the 'div' you have, it should be pretty easy now!

next week

I'll keep at small jobs and cleanup. I realised just now that my new similar files paste button should probably take direct file URLs too, so I'll give that a go. It'd be nice to hammer out some more Client API stuff too, and I really need to catch up on github issues, but we'll see. I am not firing on all cylinders right now, so I am keeping it simple.

I had a good week. I mostly worked on quality of life improvements--highlighting large downloaders is now smooth and cancellable, and the file search tag autocomplete can now take pastes of multiple tags and will also parse typed system predicates.

The release should be as normal tomorrow.

Full changelog: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/changelog.html

highlights

When you petition in the manage tags/siblings/parents panel on a repository, it typically asks you for a reason for the change. There are some fixed reasons, but now the system will remember the last five custom reasons you enter too. I hope this saves some typing/pasting work for people with clever petitions to make. You can change the number of recent reasons saved (including setting to 0 to disable) under options->tags.

I had a good week. There are two things happening tomorrow, and nothing else: there's a prototype new media player that I would like some people to test, and there are long-delayed library and build updates that will require users to update in a special way. Users who extract will be making a ‘clean install’, and almost all users will be updating their shortcuts to point to the new executable, which is renamed from 'client' to 'hydrus_client'. I'll walk everyone through what they need to do in the post.

The release should be as normal tomorrow.
