    System tray icon:

    Hydrus now can now make a system tray icon for those OSes that support it. it can be buggy/crashy under non-Windows, where it gets some warning labels
    Under the new options->system tray page, you can set whether to show the system tray all the time, minimise the main gui to system tray, close-button the main gui to system tray, and start the program minimised to the system tray
    Right-clicking the icon brings up a menu to show/hide the ui, pause/unpause network traffic or subscriptions, and to exit hydrus
    The main file menu now has an option to minimise to system tray
    Double-clicking or middle-clicking the icon will show/hide the whole hydrus ui as long as there are no dialogs open
    Clicking it will restore the main gui from minimise or raise it to the front
    On an ui hide, the current preview window will be blanked and media viewers will be paused, so any ongoing noise/cpu from them should stop
    A new 'global' shortcut 'hide_to_system_tray' is now available
    Starting the client minimised may have some layout issues on first show--I particularly had to fix splitter layouts--please report any more you discover

    Framerate and num frames:

    System:framerate search added to system:duration panel. precise framerate is tricky with current hydrus info, so it searches +/- 5% of a given value
    System:number of frames added to system:duration panel
    Sort by number of frames added
    Duration/framerate/num frames sort moved to their own 'duration' submenu
    Framerate added to generic media metadata summary string (which appears in status bar and media viewer, etc...). precise framerate is tricky with current hydrus info, so it is rounded to the nearest integer

    The rest:

    Rolling in new danbooru file page parsers that should fix file downloads, thank you to a user for the submission
    Rolling in a e621 login script, thank you to a user for the submission
    Gave tag autocomplete results fetch code a pass, cleaning up several instances of incorrect or inefficient timing and caching logic and I believe fixing the issue where system preds would sometimes not be loaded after entering a tag
    Improved reliability of autocomplete dropdown hiding on background pages (some edge cases where these could still hang around should be fixed)
    Improved 'hide' tests in several parts of the program related to the new system tray icon, which should help some other cases--e.g. weird shutdowns now shouldn't ever leave a bunch of floating popup messages
    Fixed a bug where pages set to open with all known files/tags domains, which is not supported, was incorrectly substituting tag domain with a file domain, which is even more not supported
    Cleaned up some sort code--I believe this has fixed the odd issue where a 'time imported' sort would not work on some pages (such as one loaded from a favourite search)
    Fixed the 'related' tag suggestion box not knowing about new pending tags added in a manage tags dialog open on a media viewer after next/previous media transitions while the dialog is open. also it and the file lookup's lists now clear when a new lookup starts
    The tag suggestion boxes are now add-only and remove what you add as you add them! let me know if this feels nice or not!
    The splash window now has a different 'booting/exiting' window title, if you would like to hook it with a window manager
    Went over all the 'prep url for display', 'filter urls', and 'normalise url' requests across the program to deal with invalid url (e.g. garbled text) better
    You can now no longer add invalid urls via the client api associate_url call--you'll get 400 instead
    Cleaned some thumbnail selection and rendering code, particularly fixing some edge case 'where that media go?' issues where collect-by calls happen during thumbnail waterfalls and so on
    Cleaned up some page file domain setting code and misc page management code
    Improved accuracy of rendered image cache memory footprint calculations

Changelog

    db-level tag sibling cache:

    the hydrus client db now maintains a fast cache of current+pending tag-to-ideal-tag sibling relationships. it works for specific services and 'all known tags'. this is a nice tool and the first step in having a proper hard-baked siblings mappings cache
    the new sibling cache can be regenerated under database->regenerate. the 'autocomplete cache' entry under that menu is also renamed to the now more appropriate 'tag mappings cache'
    the db repair system can regenerate this new cache if any part is missing on boot
    the lookup that finds tag sibling matches for autocomplete uses this and is now faster, specific to the searched service, more accurate about status, and now includes pending siblings
    wrote a new unified object to manage a collection of tag siblings, it is now in use at the db level
    as I continue to develop this new fast tech, the old 'apply all sibs to all services' option, which was always buggy, may sometimes not apply in it. I will ultimately replace it with a fuller per-service choice system that will work quickly and properly and in the same unified way
    fixed a bug where only one local tag service's siblings would be matched at the ui level when looking at 'all known tags'
    fixed a bug in the file search code where searching for a tag that had an unnamespaced sibling going to it would result in searching for all possible namespaces of that sibling (e.g. searching for 'character:samus aran' when 'samus aran'->'character:samus aran' sibling existed would result in effectively 'anything:samus aran')
    when tag services are deleted, they are now better about cleaning up their siblings and parents quickly
    optimised some tag and hash id->value database cache population routines to improve performance for large queries (e.g. when fetching all the tag parents/siblings on boot). also these caches are now larger, 100k instead of 25k
    all cache regen code now forces an immediate analyze of the new tables to speed up imminent access

    The rest:

    updated the default e621 file page parser to get rating tags again (looks like their markup just changed again)
    updated the default sankaku file page parser to get their recently redefined 'genre' tags
    in edit subscriptions, the 'overwrite tag import options/check options' actions now initialise their dialogs with the current value for the first subscription, rather than the global program default
    in the edit subscription panel, the checker options button is moved down to the file/tag import options
    when not in advanced mode, the edit tag import options panel now has some red-text at the top to reinforce to new users that they should generally use the defaults
    the tag import options blacklist now secondarily checks against all known siblings of the parsed tags, rather than just the 'collapsed' ideal siblings
    subscriptions are now more aggressive about clearing out old urls from their file import caches--instead of clearing the 251st url after it has aged twice the death period, now they use just one DP. also, checkers with static checker timings will use five times that check period as DP if that is smaller. static checkers, or those that never die, will use a flat value of six months as DP if that is smaller
    moved a bunch of the debug 'data actions' to a new 'memory actions' menu
    significantly reduced how often the system tray regenerates its menu, which seems to improve stability
    fixed an issue where guis that were maximised before a minimise were restoring from a system tray icon click to normal view
    double-clicking the system tray when the ui is hidden should no longer do a fast show/hide
    fixed an issue where if the gui was minimised, the main animation timer would not run for other windows (e.g. a separate media viewer)
    improved ui shown/hidden tracking logic for the new system tray icon for different OSes
    fixed the 'refresh_page_of_pages_pages' shortcut action, which had faulty old wx code in it
    fixed a wx->Qt bug where modal popups that cannot be cancelled, and thus pop up a 'sorry, you can't dismiss this' text when you try to close them, were nonetheless still closing afterwards
    the hydrus client and server now attempt to listen their servers on both IPv4 and IPv6, failing gracefully if IPv6 is not available
    the 'is this a localhost request?' check now understands IPv6 localhost (::1 or ::ffff:127.0.0.1)
    may have solved a 100% cpu repaint issue with the a/c dropdown in some qt environments
    added info to installing help about Windows N and clean installs
    misc media viewer wx->Qt code cleanup
    misc code cleanup

    Experimental hellzone, be wary ye scabs:

    added an experimental 'sub-gallery url' url content type to the parsing and downloading system. this url is queued into the gallery log even if the primary gallery page found no file/post urls, and is meant for galleries that link to galleries. not yet ready for primetime, but feedback would be appreciated
    added an experimental ui-hang relief mode, activated under help->debug->data actions->db ui-hang relief mode, which should stop the ui hanging in unusual long-time ui-synchronous db jobs. it may cause other problems, so it is default off. it also prints begin/end statements to log for additional info. users who experience ui hang due to db job processing time are invited to play with this mode and report back results

Changelog

    cloudflare and network:

    the hydrus client now has an experimental hook to the cloudscraper module, which is now an optional pip module for source users and included in all built releases. if a CF challenge page is downloaded, hydrus attempts to detect and solve it with cloudscraper and save the CF cookies back to the session before reattempting the request. all feedback on this working/breaking irl would be welcome. current expectation for this prototype is it can pass the basic 'wait five seconds' javascript challenge, but only a handful of the more complicated captcha ones
    if a CF challenge page is not solvable, the respective fail reason for that URL will be labelled appropriately about CloudFlare and have more technical information
    the hydrus network engine now has the capability to remember recent serious network infrastructure errors (no connection, unsolvable cloudflare problem, etc..) on a per domain basis. if many serious errors have happened on a domain, new jobs will now wait until they are clear. this defaults to three or more such errors in the past ten minutes, and is configurable (and disableable) under options->connection. this will be built out to a flexible system in future, with per-domain options+status ui to see what's going on and actions to scrub delays
    basically, if a server or your internet connection goes down, hydrus now throttles down to limit the damage
    subscriptions now test if a domain is ok in order to decide whether they can start or continue file work, just like with bandwidth
    serverside bandwidth alerts (429 or 509) are now classified as network infrastructure errors
    I expect this system will need more tuning
    the hydrus downloader system now recognises when an expected parseable document is actually an importable file. when this is true, the file is imported. this hopefully solves the situation where a site may deliver a post url or a file

    the rest:

    the windows build of hydrus is now in python 3.7.6, up from 3.6. this rolls in a host of small improvements, including to network stability and security (e.g. TLS 1.3), and possibly a couple of new bugs in more unusual hydrus systems
    similarly, all the windows libraries are now their latest versions. opencv is now 4.2
    greatly sped up several file searches that include no tags such as bare system:rating, most system file metadata predicates, or bare system:inbox, when the result size is much smaller than the total number of files in the file domain
    thanks to some excellent work by a user, the Deviant Art downloader gets another pass--it can now get high res versions of images where they are available, and video, and flash, and pdf! the only proviso is that you need to be logged in to DA to get most content, otherwise you get 404. the current hydrus DA login script seems to work ok
    tag import options blacklists now test unnamespaced rules against namespaced tags. so if you blacklist 'metroid', a 'series:metroid' will be caught and the blacklist veto signal sent. this can be escaped with the 'advanced' exception panel, which now permits you to add 'redundant' rules
    the edit tag filter panel now explains the blacklist rules explicitly and has a second 'test' green/red text to display test results for a tag import options blacklist, with the new sibling and namespace check
    added some unit tests to test the new tag import options blacklist namespace rule
    when 'default' tag import options are set, the edit panel now hides the per-service options, rather the the previous disable
    the system tray icon now destroys itself when no longer needed, rather than hiding itself. it should now be more reliable in OSes that do not support system tray icon hide/show. if your OS still doesn't get rid of them, and you get a whole row of them, I recommend just leaving it always on
    the system tray now has a tooltip with the main hydrus title and pause statuses
    the timer that hides the mouse on the media viewer is now fired off when the window first opens (previously it would only initiate on the first mouse move over the window), so users who navigate mostly by keyboard should now see their cursors nicely hide on their own
    added some semi-hacky import/export/duplicate buttons to edit shortcuts. I'll keep working on this, it'd be nice to have import/export for whole shortcut sets
    added a semi-hacky duplicate button to the 'manage http headers' dialog
    the 'clear' recent tag suggestions button is now wrapped in a yes/no dialog
    a new checkbox under options->gui now lets you set it so when new cookies are sent from the API, or cookies are cleared, a popup message summarises the change. the popup dismisses itself after five seconds
    the client api now also returns 'ext' on /get_files/file_metadata calls, just as a simpler alternative if the 'mime' is a pain
    fixed a bug when petitioning tags through the client api, with or without reasons
    fixed an error where subscriptions that somehow held invalid URLs would not be able to predict some bandwidth stuff, which would not allow the edit subs dialog to open
    the string transformation dialog's step subdialog is now ok with example strings that are bytes. even then, this str/bytes dichotomy is an old artifact of python 2 and I will likely clean it up sometime so string transformers (and downloaders) only ever work utf-8 and hashes just work off utf-8 hex
    added a BUGFIX checkbox to options->gui that tells the UI to use Qt file/directory picker dialogs, instead of the native OS one. users who have crashes on file selection are encouraged to try this out
    updated running from source help with cloudscraper, a new pip masterline, and some windows venv info
    the 'import with tags' button on 'import files' dialog gets another rename for new users, this time to 'add tags before the import >>'. it also gets a tooltip
    handled an unusual rare error that could occur when switching out a media player inside a media viewer, perhaps during media viewer shutdown

    Autocomplete cleanup:

    The text you type into tag autocomplete is now parsed in a unified object. all the variants of empty text, invalid text, valid text, namespace text, and wildcard text are all tested and fetched in one simple location with better code
    Autocomplete results caching is now a unified object that tracks and filters results in one location. wildcard searches are now never cached by accident, and switching from tag cache to system predicate cache and to non-initialised cache is instant and more reliable
    When an autocomplete, either in a search page or a context that manages tags, has results include multiple sibling variants of the typed text, they are now all elevated to the top of the list. the ideal is at the top, the entered text is next, and any known siblings follow
    The search character 'collapse' that ensures quote marks and hyphens and other odd characters are unified across tags now applies uniformly to all non-complicated-wildcard search tags, with namespace not collapsed and subtag always collapsed
    When entering an explicit wildcard search, both strict and autocomplete versions (whether they end with an asterisk) are now displayed
    The way tag results are filtered is now more accurate for some unusual wildcards
    It is now more difficult to slip cpu-killer search tags (weird asterisk combinations) through
    The quick-broadcast that happens when the user hits enter before any results have started loading now uses the unified object and chooses a safer and more reliable broadcast value. the test whether to do the quick-broadcast is also more reliable, particularly in unusual situations where a recent search was cancelled or delayed. note that for many users, the cache and search tech is fast enough that this very rarely triggers
    Searching with a wildcard below the autocomplete threshold can no longer trigger a full search, nor an invalid exact-text search
    Namespace count merging is now unified across db tag fetches and media fetches
    Include current/pending buttons now filter down to media-based tag autocomplete counts
    Namespace tag autocomplete queries will no longer show up some unusual siblings below the 'anything' tag
    Deleted a whole bunch of old a/c and caching code
    Added comprehensive unit tests for the new parsed autocomplete text object
    Added comprehensive unit tests for the new predicate results cache object

    The rest:

    Fixed a stupid typo bug in the new domain checking code that was stopping subscriptions with incomplete file queues from starting. I apologise for this
    Network error responses 502 (Bad Gateway) and 503 (Service Unavailable) are now treated as a retryable. the 503 is assuming it is not a CF challenge page. if they fail all retries, they are considered a network infrastructure error
    All other misc 5xx http responses are now treated as instant network infrastructure errors and will be logged in the new domain health tracker
    The exit splash screen now opens a bit earlier, so you now shouldn't have any momentary uncertainty where no windows are open
    Clients that start minimised to system tray should be better about restoring splitter positions on first show
    The various 'management panels', the panels on the left of main gui pages, now have smaller minimum width where available. the gallery and watcher panels are still the widest, which is a limitation of the current list tech. when it gets better column sizing code and selection memory, this will improve
    Fixed an issue loading gifs with some OpenCV versions
    Brushed up some running from source help
    Deleted the Py2To3 script that attempts to detect a legacy python 2 install
    Improved all the gui files' import order
    Cleaned up and refactored some subscription code
    Added a bunch of type hints to edit panel code
    Misc code cleanup

    Environment updates:

    Did second step of hydrus project structure improvement--now the project is split into subdirectories for core/client/server/misc and some client subdirs. work here will continue
    It isn't important, but hydrus is now built in python rather than directly from command line. my build scripts now include cloudscraper and the new hydrus source code tree in the build as they are, rather than hardcoded copying

    Some more suggested tags fixes/qol:

    favourite tags now correctly refreshes on new media
    the tag suggestion lists in manage tags now discard current and pending tags that all the current media already have, and all tag suggestion lists update this filter any time the media gets a tag content update! they should update live now
    all tag and predicate taglists now try to move the selection to a 'nice' neigbour when a keyboard enter activation results in the current selection being removed (e.g. as in these tag suggestion lists). the nice selection should be the tag after, before, or at the top of the list, and should make it nicer to keep navigating the list and add tags with your keyboard

    all tag and predicate taglists now try to preserve selection on simple clear-and-set data refreshes
    Deleted tags overwrite update:

    due to an unfortunate oversight, until now tag parsing has not filtered out previously deleted tags from the tags it parses and sends to the local database
    as the majority of downloaded files are parsed once per site per user and in a similar time window before manual editing ever occurs, and most non-tag-sibling-eligible bad tags are site specific or not parsed to begin with, and as these undesired tags were not broadcast up to the tag repository, this problem has not been very obvious and I believe has not affected most users too much. this is however a reason why some users who have more recently downloaded many older files are seeing smaller 'deleted mappings' counts on their ptr review panel (and some low quality tags in their db), as they have been re-adding previously deleted tags to their local store
    this has been fixed. tag import options now load the pending importee file's metadata before tags are filtered and discard currently deleted tags from those to be added or pended. this applies to parsed tags, additional tags, and those tags added through special other means, such as from a parent gallery page.
    if you do wish to allow parsed or additional tags to overwrite currently deleted tags for a particular job, the cog icons on the edit tag import options panel now allow you to permit overwrite for either
    tags added via hard drive imports or the migrate tags tool still overwrite deleted tags as before
    as this is a local-only problem, there is thankfully a retroactive fix for this issue for tag repository domains, involving a content reprocess run to re-apply deleted tags. I am not activating this automatically this week as this is a heavy job for the ptr and I need to study the true fallout of the problem more, but I may in future, likely as a smaller and more targeted maintenance job. advanced users can do it now under the ptr's review services panel
    I regret missing this, and I am sorry for any inconvenience. I only discovered it through the serendipity of some users recently reporting unusual deleted counts and a personal item in my todo to check the reliability of deleted mapping filtering for local tag domains--turns out it never got added, and we never specifically noticed, fugg
    there are now unit tests for the improved tag filtering pipeline and both of these new overwrite options

    The rest:

    hydrus can now use several different zoom 'centerpoints' about which to expand and shrink a zooming file. this was previously hardcoded to the center of the media. under options->media, you can now set it to be the media window center (the new default, which feels much nicer after a pan), the mouse cursor, the old media center, or the media top-left corner
    cleaned up the related zoom positioning code, and removed the jarring old re-centering off-screen rescue hack when zooming out to canvas zoom
    added a warning about big zooms to the media options page
    fixed tag autocomplete filtering in python 3.7 so 'character:aran' matches 'character:samus aran' again
    when the hover windows on a media viewer have focus, they should now pass up all options->shortcuts shortcuts to the media viewer
    mouse back/forward buttons should now be supported in the shortcuts system, as much as your OS allows them to work like regular clicks
    fixed a rare crash with the 'clear trash' button
    the client will now not re-analyze tables that have been previously scanned with at least 100k rows in the normal 'soft' maintenance cycle, as this is an expensive operation with limited benefit
    the client will now not vacuum database files greater than 1GB in the normal 'soft' maintenance cycle, as this is an expensive operation with limited benefit
    the new 'cannot vacuum because xxxx' log entry is now only ever printed once per boot. however due to the above change, it likely won't appear in the normal maintenance cycle anyway now
    cleaned up some vacuum code
    reworked the panel system to better test data validity vs 'woah, you sure you want to do this?' tests and generally cleaned and simplified the canok/cancancel/isvalid testing logic for all panels. panels like manage siblings will now not produce two message boxes if you try to ok them on an uncommited pair and then back out of the ok
    refactored the top level window code and improved scrollable panel code typing
    more standalone gui function code refactoring
    fixed a click-selection-test bug when clicking on certain whitespace in certain predicate lists
    the text of the cloudflare-specific error when encountering a captcha page is improved
    cleaned up some tag list menu copy and select code, both the menu labels and the copy action, for unusual tags. the 'copyable tags' fetching code is now flexible and unified for menu and action
    cleaned up the taglist sibling copy code, eliminating the chance of dupes
    fixed a little of the wording on the discard/exclude tag list menu labels for negated predicates, it still feels a bit awkward and I will keep working here
    cleaned up some old media metadata fetching code
    misc import code typing
    misc list/iterable typing improvements
    added some misc media-tag tool code
    unified the tag import options tag filtering pipeline somewhat to deal with the deleted overwrite situation
    improved a debug ui test to no longer need window focus
    misc help cleanup
