I had an ok week. There are some bug fixes, more Client API data, and a new tool for server janitors.

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

highlights

This week is a little slim on updates for normal users. Mostly bug fixes, and updates to the 'running from source' setup scripts, and there is a neat fix/improvement when you apply set-duplicate actions to many thumbnails at once. Check the changelog if you want to read more!

For advanced users, the Client API gets some more of the service name, type, and type_pretty variables, and 'all known tags' appears on the new 'tags' structure in the 'file_metadata' call (I forgot to add it last week!).

For hydrus repository admins and janitors, there is an update to the petition workflow. The petitions page now has an 'account id' field where you can paste an account id and see petition counts (and petitions) just from that account. Servers have to update for this to work.

next week

It felt good to clean some ancient server code this week. There's plenty more I want to get done before the end of the year, so I'll keep focusing on it. This is scheduled to be a 'medium size job' week, so if I can figure it out, I'd really like to have a basic tag filter implemented so the server can auto-discard tags on upload. We'll see!

everything is broke again
venv won't start because there is no activate.bat

I had a great week fixing some bugs, adding a hash lookup to the Client API, and attaching a Tag Filter to the PTR, which will make it easier to clear out some less useful and misparsed tags right as they are uploaded, no petition needed.

The release should be as normal tomorrow.

Sorry to hear your trouble. Can you talk more about what happened? Did you change the venv, or could an anti-virus or other program have interfered with it? If the activate.bat has disappeared, try running the setup-venv.bat again--that'll clear out your old venv folder and reinstall everything.

Since you have had problems with this, could you tell me what has been most difficult to get going? Has my 'running from source' help been confusing at any point? Did the setup bat fail? How did things break before, and what was the solution? How could I make it easier? I have been adjusting the help and the scripts in recent weeks to be more clear on each step, so I regret it hasn't worked for you.

I managed to make it work by building from scratch in a new folder.
Before I had database failure, due to my mistake of not backing it up properly.
Venv failed before until I found working mix of qt5, old python, new mpv.
It's painful because I don't even know the difference and simply seeking blindly for something that will run somehow.

Sorry again for the problems. I am glad you are working now. Which old version of python worked for you? 3.8 or earlier? To make it less of a 'blind' situation in future, how could I improve my help? Are there specific version recommendations I could make for people on Windows 7?

You can back up the venv folder, btw, so now you have something that works, you can save it all--it is completely portable.

I will try and ensure that hydrus keeps working for Qt5 and older python as long as I reasonably can, so let me know if a future update breaks something.
