If you are an engineer but didn't see the above vid yesterday, I strongly recommend it, the whole thing. We're clearly in the inflection point of this tech right now, and if you aren't experimenting with integrating some variant of it in some way into your work workflow, I think it is time. I just started using it for some scripting jobs I had been putting off this week and it honestly really helped out. There's problems aplenty in the whole space, but I'm pretty AI-pilled right now.

I had a good week. There's a mix of bug fixes and improvements to quality of life, mostly in the tag autocomplete interface.

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

highlights

So autocomplete has a couple new things. First off, there's a new 'all files ever imported/deleted' entry under the file domain button. This searches everything your client has ever seen, runs super fast, and works with 'all known tags'. Also, when editing tags, I've tightened up the selection rules and reduced the sibling spam--now, you should get the 'ideal' of what you typed at the top, then what you actually typed (if that differs), and then normal results. Also, the various paste buttons tucked into edit autocompletes now only ever add items--if any of what you paste is already in the accompanying list, it won't be removed now.

And I changed the '(displays as xxx)' sibling indicator. It is now a simple unicode arrow, and because I wanted to play with gradients, I made it fade its colour from one namespace to another. If you don't like the text or the fade, you can change them under options->tag presentation.

There's a new Deviant Art downloader, thanks to a user's work, that pulls the 'original' quality from the 'download' button, which some creators turn on for logged-in users. There's also five new File URL URL Classes, which you can search with system:known url, that will categorise your existing DA downloads according to their quality. Enterprising advanced users might like to play around with this!

next week

Next week is slated for code cleanup. I want to do some boring database breakup work!

do you plan on adding yt-dlp support? i tried to import a video along with its metadata and description using the "--write-description --write-info-json" commands, but hydrus doesn't know what to do with the json files
had to do everything manually

Release Tomorrow!

I had a good week. I cleaned some code and fixed a bunch of small issues in tag parsing, tag display, file import options, file delete reasons, and file viewing statistics.

The release should be as normal tomorrow.

I would like to have some support. I plan to have an 'executable manager', which will let us define certain exe paths and arguments that we can send certain URLs to, e.g. 'this is a twitter video, send it to yt-dlp'.

Having nice note support in that would be a potentially significant extension, though--it would probably start off just as single files, no extra sidecars.

I do have a fairly clever manual sidecar system now, which should be able to deal with simple JSON files, but it doesn't support notes yet (just tags and URLs). You might like to have a play with it nonetheless, in prep for when I add notes, which I would like to do fairly soon. Try importing your video from your hard drive and play around with the 'sidecar' tab after hitting 'add tags/urls with the import'. If you can rename the json files to be very similar to the video file, that would help.
