For all versions, see the [old changelog](old_changelog.html). +## [Version 597](https://github.com/hydrusnetwork/hydrus/releases/tag/v597) + +### misc + +* fixed an issue that caused non-empty hard drive file import file logs that were created before v595 (this typically affected import folders that are set to 'leave source alone, do not reattempt it' for any of the result actions) to lose track of their original import objects' unique IDs and thus, when given more items to possibly add (again, usually on an import folder sync), to re-add the same items one time over again and essentially double-up in size one time. this broke the ability to review the file log UI panel too, so users who noticed the behaviour was jank couldn't see what was going on. on update, all the newer duplicate items will be removed and you'll reset to the original 'already in db' etc.. stuff you had before. all file logs now check for and remove newer duplicates whenever they load or change contents. this happened because of the 'make file logs load faster' update in v595--it worked great for downloaders and subs, but local file imports use a slightly different ID system to differentiate separate objects and it was not updated correct +* the main text-fetching routine that failed to load the list UI in the above case can now recover from null results if this happens again +* file import objects now have some more safety code to ensure they are identifying themselves correctly on load +* did some more work on copying tags: the new 'always copy parents with tags' was not as helpful as I expected, so this is no longer the default when you hit Ctrl+C (it goes back to the old behaviour of just copying the top-line rows in your selection). when you open a tag selection 'copy' menu, it now lists as a separate item 'copy 2 selected and 3 parents' kind of thing if you do want parents. also, parents will no longer copy with their indent (wew), and the taglists are now deduped so you will not be inundated with tagspam. futhermore, the 'what tags do we have' taglist in the manage tags dialog, and favourites/suggestions taglists, are now more parent-aware and plugged into this system +* added Mr Bones to the frame locations list under `options->gui`. if you use him a lot, he'll now remember where he was and how big he was +* also added `manage_times_dialog`, `manage_urls_dialog`, `manage_notes_dialog`, and `export_files_frame` to the list. they will all remember last size and position by default +* the client now recovers from a missing frame location entry with a fallback and a note in the log +* rewrote the way the media viewer hover windows and their sub-controls are updated to the current media object. the old asynchronous pubsub is out, and synchronous Qt signals are in. fingers crossed this truly fixes the rare-but-annoying 'oh the ratings in the top-right hover aren't updating I guess' bug, but we'll see. I had to be stricter about the pipeline here, and I was careful to ensure it would be failsafe, so if you discover a media viewer with hover windows that simply won't switch media (they'd probably be frozen in a null state from viewer open), let me know the details! +* some built versions of the client seem unable to find their local help, so now, when a user asks to open a help page, if it seems to be missing locally, a little text with the paths involved is now written to the log + +### parsing + +* all formulae now have a 'name/description' field. this is wholly decorative and simply appears in the single- or multi-line summary of the formula in UI. all formulae start with and will initialise with a blank label +* the generic 'edit formula' panel (the one where you can change the formula type) now has import/export buttons +* updated the ZIPPER UI to use a newer single-class 'queue list' widget rather than some ten year old 'still has some wx in it' scatter of gubbins +* added import/export/duplicate capability to the 'queue list' widget, and added it for ZIPPER formulae +* also added import/export/duplicate buttons to the 'edit string processor' list!! +* 'any characters' String Match objects now describe themselves with the 'such as' respective example string, with the new proviso that no String Match will give this string if it is stuck at the 'example string' default. you'll probably most see this in the manage url class dialog for components and parameters +* cleaned a bunch of this code generally + +### client api + +* fixed an issue fetching millisecond-precise timestamps in the `file_metadata` call when one of the timestamps had a null value (for instance if the file has no modified date of any kind registered) +* in the various potential duplicates calls, some simple searches (usually when one/both of two searches are system:everything) are now optimised using the same routine that happens in UI +* the client api version is now 75 + +### Win 7 news + +* for Win 7 users who run from source, I believe newer the program's newer virtual environments will no longer build in Win 7. it looks like a new version of psd-tools will not compile in python 3.8, and there's also some code in newer versions of the program that 3.8 simply won't run. I think the last version that works for you is v582. we've known this train was coming for a while, so I'm afraid Win 7 guys will have to freeze at that version unless and until they update Windows or move to Linux/macOS +* I have updated the 'running from source' help to talk about this, including adding the magic git line you need to choose a specific version rather than normal git pull. this is likely the last time I will specifically support Win 7, and I suspect I will sunset pyside2 and PyQt5 testing too + +### Windows future build + +* I am releasing a future build alongside this release, just for Windows. it has new dlls for SQLite and mpv. advanced users are invited to test it out and tell me if there are any problems booting and playing media, and if there are no issues, I'll fold this into the normal build next week +* mpv: 2023-08-20 to 2024-10-20 +* SQLite: 3.45.3 to 3.47.0 +* these bring normal optimisations and bug fixes. I expect no huge problems (although I believe the mpv dll strictly no longer supports Win 7, but that is now moot), but please check and we'll see + +### boring code cleanup + +* in prep for duplicates auto-resolution, the five variables that go into a potential duplicates search (two file searches, the search type, the pixel dupe requirement, and the max hamming distance) are now bundled into one nice clean object that is simpler to handle and will be easier to update in future. everything that touches this stuff--the page manager, the page UI (there's a whole edit panel for the new class), the filter itself, the Client API, the db search code, all the unit tests, and now the duplicates auto-resolution system--all works on this new thing rather than throwing list of variables around + +### duplicates auto-resolution + +* I pushed this forward in a bunch of ways. nothing actually works yet, still, but if you poke around in the advanced placeholder UI, you'll see the new potential duplicates search context UI, now with side-by-side file search context panels, for the fleshed-out pixel-perfect jpeg/png default + ## [Version 596](https://github.com/hydrusnetwork/hydrus/releases/tag/v596) ### misc @@ -379,27 +429,3 @@ title: Changelog * the `/get_files/search_files` command now supports `include_current_tags` and `include_pending_tags`, mirroring the buttons on the normal search interface (issue #1577) * updated the help and unit tests to check these new params * client api version is now 69 - -## [Version 587](https://github.com/hydrusnetwork/hydrus/releases/tag/v587) - -### all misc this week - -* I made a second stupid typo last week. it raised an error when trying to open the 'manage tag display and search' dialog! it was fixed thanks to a user -* the current local file domains of a file (e.g. 'my files') are now simply listed in the top-right hover window, above any remote locations or URLs. I think I'm going to make these checkboxes or something in future so we can have one-click file migrations -* if you set up a _share->export files_ job and one of the internal files is actually missing, the error message now tells you to go check for missing files using the database file maintenance stuff -* if an export files job that is set to delete internal files breaks half way through, the routine now makes sure only to delete what was actually successful -* subscriptions now catch program shutdown signals better. previously, this was being handled as an unknown error and delay times and error texts were being set. it now just closes cleanly, no worries -* the command palette should now match case-insensitively -* I _may_ have fixed a false-positive delete-lock report ('could not delete files xyz because of delete lock') that can happen in the duplicate filter. also, the 'unable to delete file' popup that happens in this case now quietly prints the current stack to log, which I would be interested in seeing -* I believe I have fixed several of the false-positive 'hey it looks like you edited this parser, are you sure you want to cancel?' confirmations in the edit parser dialog -* the automatic datestring parsing routine should now be more resilient against english datestrings when the locale differs significantly (it seems if the locale requires a 24-hour clock, it may be a problem for AM/PM time strings) -* cleaned up some ancient-and-terrible sash-sizing code that manages the three resizable panels of each media results page. hopefully I fixed an issue in Docker and other places where the media page could spawn with a 0-pixel-wide thumbnail panel -* fixed a weird/stupid bug with the new scanbar that would sometimes start giving errors on media transitions because it couldn't find its media parent -* improved how a core UI job waits on the database to be free. it now uses just a little less CPU/fewer thread switches -* improved how that same UI job waits on the pubsub system to be free, same deal -* since they reversed the API click-through requirement, removed the 8chan TOS click-through login script from the defaults. existing users will see it set to non-active. 8chan thread watching should work out the box again - -### new list stuff - -* I worked on a new multi-column list class that uses a more intelligent data model.
