/hydrus/ - Hydrus Network

First for plugin system/API please. Thanks for this release!

PS: prkc is iq89 :^)

I have a question, with login, Is it possible for the program to check before it starts up if its logged in?

Either by

1)going to a default page and looking for the sign in page

2)going to a default page and looking for a log out page

3)going to a default page and looking for the absence of either of the above

4)going to a specific page you can't access without being logged in

here, the main page for derpi has a few

https://derpibooru.org/users/sign_in

That will tell you you aren't signed in if its present, and it will tell you if you are signed in on its absence

https://derpibooru.org/settings

Is a page that radically changes if you are logged in because some things are handled internally and some are handled through just a cookie. not the best way to do it for this site as many others require a log in or give you a full error for this

https://derpibooru.org/users/sign_out

The presence of this will tell you that you are logged in, and its absence can tell you that you are logged out.

It would also be possible to have a test image on a site like pixiv that is either visible when logged in but not visible when logged out.

now as to the furaffinity problem, I have a solution of sorts, though it may not be the best one it would likely be the easiest one for the end user.

would it be possible to make a browser script to capture the login credentials and an import of the file it saves to hydrus? something where it just saves it to disk, and an input credential menu for hydrus.

Just a few thoughts so far, no idea how implementable the last one is.

In "manage logins" I wrote my login on the wrong domain and now I can't clear it. There should be a way to do that.

The browsing experience would be much improved if the switch_between_100_percent_and_canvas_zoom was persistent until you close the full screen viewer.

I was going through a search for very low resolution images to delete and I wanted them to remain unzoomed so I could make a judgement while for normal browsing I want them to fit my screen. As it is now I had to toggle each time I go to the next image.

wow, forgot to look in on the last thread for a while

on the thumbnails, I upgraded version and I don't see the issue anymore, it could have needed a reset of the program, or something changed in the new version that fixed it for me, if it happens again, ill screenshot the whole program and post it.

as for the client lag, sure, ill run profiles in a day or so when I put in a massive load of images, doing nothing right now my client 'cpu busy' a good chunk of that is likely thread watchers, along with getting a bit lazy about dealing with incoming files.

A few things happened that desitated a 50k image import that I haven't gave a cursory look at yet, so that's gumming it up a bit just because of the image load.

>>10576

I expect to put the poll up this Wed, btw.

>>10580

Thank you for this report. Can you please go in to edit this sub and see what the 'presentation' options are down the bottom? Does it say there to 'publish new files to a popup button', or has this been unchecked (maybe by accident)? If it is checked, what do the 'presentation options' look like under 'file import options'–which kinds of files are set to present?

>>10581

Thank you for this. Another user mentioned this to me as well. I will make sure to update the parser to use the better link when available. Please let me know how it works for you.

>>10586

Thanks, this is by trying to edit it and clear the text boxes, right? For now, you should be able to delete/add to force refresh/clear it.

>>10584

Yeah, I think this kind of thing may be needed for some types of sites that provide bad cookies. "If this state is valid on this page, you can assume you are still logged in for 60 mins" kind of thing. I still have to play with Hentai Foundry to see if the dynamic cookie is enough.

I don't think I have time to do anything like this well in this iteration, however.

Can you describe your idea to get around FA a bit more? Atm, the problem on my end is that along with username and password field in their login form, they also need some recaptcha fields. In hydrus, this would mean fetching a recaptcha key and presenting the associated challenge/puzzle to the user in hydrus ui so they could solve it and so I could POST the key and answer back along with username/password. Do you have in mind some way of connecting the browser to hydrus to help out?

>>10587

I agree. My idea on this is to add it as a cog icon option somewhere in the media viewer ui. I'll bump the job up.

>>10619

yeah, trying to clear the text box

>>10626

The 'db is locked' issue seems to occur in some combination of 'a client is already running' and 'the last client shutdown was bad'. I have had a couple of reports about this but haven't been about to reproduce it or otherwise figure it out. It _may_ be related to a hard drive hiccup, but I don't have any firm evidence. The solution seems to be checking for and force-killing any existing client.exe in task manager and otherwise just trying to boot a couple of times. If your client booted ok afterwards, I would recommend you stick with it, as this issue so far seems otherwise harmless.

If you still have your old install, can you check your client.log in install_dir/db? The errors should have been written to that log. If they aren't just reiterations of 'db was locked', I'd be interested to see them.

>>10628

Woah, thanks for the answer.

I simply took it back out of the trash, but I think I have to re-organize anyways.

It's a welcome excuse, haha.

I hope you can trust anonfile, I uploaded the raw txt files:

The first link takes you to the log of today when the error occurred, the others are just there if you can be bothered to look into them, but in the end it's not really important I think.

At any rate, thank you for replying, I almost feel bad for taking your time up to respond since the error kind of "resokved itself" (it still wörks) afterwards.

Have a nice day. I salute your effort for this program.

>>10630

Thanks, I have these logs now. You can delete the links if you wish.

Please don't worry about reporting errors–my going through reports and figuring out better solutions is the main way the program gets better, whether that is figuring out a technical fix or simply rewording an error message. I appreciate your feedback.

>>10631

I am not sure what happened here–did you happen to go through the help->i don't know what I am doing menu more than once? This could have created multiple entries here.

MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR DB FILES BEFORE YOU DO THE FOLLOWING:

I suggest you look at these three services and make a note of which seems the most 'healthy' and then go services->manage services and delete the two bad ones. If you have multiples of my file repository, you can delete two or all three of those as well. Let me know if you get any errors trying to delete the extra services.

>>10617

Not sure how it got unchecked but that did the trick. Thanks Dev

>>10620

No real way to connect the browser to hydrus at least that I know of, my idea was logging in on chrome and having it save the login info to something that could be opened to hydrus.

I have no idea how feasible my idea is, or if it's more work then what you are thinking will be.

>>10573

Hi admin

Can you reply to my message on your email

I actually sent you an email with all questions

Also sorry if I disturb you <3

>>10573

I have a question, as you may remember I have an issue with one of my subs, mainly the one to derpy

first_seen_at.gt:3 days ago, upvotes.gte:150

Not going through all of the pages due to the weird way that it displays.

you mentioned a potential solution a few threads back, did that solution get put in and i'm an idiot and didn't see it or was it never implemented?

Just a refresher, sorts by time uploaded, the problem is something from 2 days ago 12 hours may just bass a 150 upvote threshold and be incorporated, and it's now on page 14 but the sub stops trying at page 1-5 because it sees to much it already knows.

The solution I thought of would be an ignore it toggle, possibly hidden by default as really, this is likely the only search that will run into problems where a constant resetting the sub is needed.

You thought of one where a custom threshold could be met according to needs, where I could set it to whatever is needed to make sure it hits everything.

>>10635

Hey, should be sent. I am afraid I am a bit slow keeping up with email, but I always try to keep it within a week. Same with threads tbh, ha ha.

>>10637

I am not totally sure. I fiddled with the way the 'you hit the periodic limit' warnings work recently, so syncs now push on if the last five files in a page were not all already-seen and the popup warnings now only appear if all the files in a single sync were new.

I am not sure how this would exactly play for your situation, so if you have had it paused for a few weeks, I recommend you just turn it on and see what happens. If it is still not checking deeper because your search commonly has the last five files of an early are all already-seen, let me know, and I'll see about adding an advanced option to modify the five files check. I'd have to be careful about it, though, and certainly hide it behind advanced mode and maybe some CAREFUL M8 dialog. I don't want to give users the power to set up a sub that checks a hundred pages every five minutes by accident.

Forgive me if I misunderstand what first_seen_at means, but could you cheese your way through this by setting a specific check time of exactly three days? Would that guarantee that every file was new? Or if you set it at a fixed 2 or 2.5 days, would that almost always guarantee the search would go deeper due to the new file quantity, but still guarantee some already-seens so you don't get the periodic limit popup?

>>10640

the first seen 3 days ago is a hold over from their own filter that sorts it by number of upvotes,

activity > rankings > top scoring which filters everything

But you saying that, I could make a very exacting list for much of the range, I didn't consider a less than greater then combo.

Ill try this out and see how it goes for a few days having go in tandem with the current filter and resets… granted I will need to keep track of the numbers out of program, but that could work.

This amount of consolidation should make it near impossible to miss a file as everyone is going to be sub 15, and even in the case it goes over 15, like is with one of the 200 range searches, checking every 6 hours should catch it at one of the stages

Also, whoever thought of the paste tags for subs is a fucking genius.

I just noticed this in the right click menu,

"show all watchers' files in new page"

so, two things

1) watchers' should probably be watcher's

2) can you add a 'show all watchers new files in new page' to the right click menu? this would solve one of my bigger minor issues

>>10644

> watchers' should probably be watcher's

watchers' here stand the for files of the watchers. In English this is correct.

> new files

What is a new file?

>>10642

Your solution in >>10643 looks maybe a bit cumbersome and autistic to me, but if you find it works and doesn't annoy the server you are talking to (I imagine generating those queries is a little CPU expensive on their end), then that could be a solution. I might tune those ranges to be a bit broader, with maybe only five 'bands' of upvotes.

The DEAD result in >>10646 is an artifact of that particular band not happening to have files on its first check, which is related to how thin it is. I recommend you wait a couple days and tell that single query to reset/check_now and see if you can initialise it with some files. As long as your check options for this sub are sufficiently broad, like 'only die if less than one new file in six months', I shouldn't think this kind of ratings based feed work ever die (after the first good initialisation) as long as the site is active.

>>10644

Do you mean like 'the files that appeared since I looked last'? Unfortunately, watchers don't keep those sorts of records, so they only ever reproduce what their file import options have set in their 'presentation/publish' settings.

For the apostrophe, I meant that as the plural of watchers, as >>10645 says, since it works for multi-selection. It doesn't fix itself if you only have one watcher selected. There are a bunch of places around the program where I lazily use the plural label like this even when currently only one thing is selected, like 'do action x to this 1 files', because the finicky text alteration every time for a singular selection is a pain in the ass. I eagerly await the AI takeover that will force all humans to standardise to One Perfect Language that has a single letter for pluralisation and a library I can import to handle it automatically.
