Allow uploading multiple files from your computer at once.
The maximum limit is 100 files at once. There is still a 50MB size limit
that applies to the whole upload. This limit is at the Nginx level.
The upload widget no longer shows a thumbnail preview of the uploaded
file. This is because there isn't room for it in a multi-file upload,
and because the next page will show a preview anyway after the files are
uploaded.
Direct file uploads are processed synchronously, so they may be slow.
API change: the `POST /uploads` endpoint now expects the param to be
`upload[files][]`, not `upload[file]`.
Followup to 093a808a3. Using a NOT EXISTS clause is much faster than the
`LEFT OUTER JOIN posts WHERE posts.id IS NULL` clause generated by
`.where.missing(:post)`.
Fix an error when trying to upload a file larger than the file size
limit. In this case we tried to dump the whole HTTP response into the
error message, which included the binary file itself, which caused this
exception because it contained null bytes.
Make the "completed" status for an upload mean "at least one file in the
upload successfully completed". The "error" status means "all files in
the upload failed".
This means that when an upload has multiple assets and some succeed and
some fail, the whole upload is considered completed. This can happen
when uploading multiple files and some files are over the size limit,
for example. The upload is considered failed only if all files in the
upload fail.
This fixes an issue where, if uploading a single file and that file
failed because it was over the size limit, then the upload wouldn't be
marked as failed.
Make the upload page automatically detect when a source URL has multiple images
and let the user choose which images to post.
For example, when uploading a Twitter or Pixiv post with more than one image, we
direct the user to a page showing a thumbnail for each image and letting
them choose which ones to post.
This is similar to the batch upload page, except we actually download each image
in the background, instead of just hotlinking or proxying the thumbnails through
our servers. This avoids various problems with proxying and makes new features
possible, like showing which images in the batch have already been posted.
This page shows each individual file you've uploaded. This is different
from the regular uploads page because files in multi-file uploads are
not grouped together.
* Save the filename for files uploaded from disk. This could be used in
the future to extract source data if the filename is from a known site.
* Save both the image URL and the page URL for files uploaded from
source. This is needed for multi-file uploads. The image URL is the
URL of the file actually downloaded from the source. This can be
different from the URL given by the user, if the user tried to upload
a sample URL and we automatically changed it to the original URL. The
page URL is the URL of the page containing the image. We don't always
know this, for example if someone uploads a Twitter image without the
bookmarklet, then we can't find the page URL.
* Add a fix script to backfill URLs for existing uploads. For file
uploads, the filename will be set to "unknown.jpg". For source
uploads, we fetch the source data again to get the image and page
URLs. This may fail for uploads that have been deleted from the
source since uploading.
This is needed for multi-file uploads. We need to know both the image
url and the page url to set the post's source correctly when converting
an upload media asset into a post.
Make upload_media_assets.media_asset_id nullable in order to support
multi-file uploads. The media asset will be null while the image is
still being downloaded from the source.
* uploads.media_asset_count - the number of media assets attached to this upload.
* upload_media_assets.status - the status of each media asset attached to this upload (processing, active, failed)
* upload_media_assets.source_url - the source of each media asset attached to this upload
* upload_media_assets.error - the error message if uploading the media asset failed
* Group URLs by site.
* List most important URLs first and dead URLs last.
* Add site icons next to URLs.
* Put other names and group name beneath the artist name, instead of beneath the wiki.
Fix URLs being normalized after checking for duplicates rather than
before, which meant that URLs that differed in capitalization weren't
detected as duplicates.
Fix two issues that could lead to duplicate errors when creating posts:
* Fix the submit button on the upload form to disable itself on submit, to prevent
accidental double submit errors.
* Fix a race condition when checking for MD5 duplicates. MD5 uniqueness is checked on both
the Rails level, with a uniqueness validation, and on the database level, with a unique
index on the md5 column. Creating a post could fail with an ActiveRecord::RecordNotUnique
error if the uniqueness validation in Rails passed, but the uniqueness constraint in the
database failed. In this case, we catch the RecordNotUnique error and convert it to a
Rails validation error so we can treat it like a normal validation failure.
`string.mb_chars.downcase` was used to correctly downcase Unicode
characters when downcasing strings in Ruby <2.4. This hasn't been needed
since Ruby 2.4.
Make uploads faster by generating and saving thumbnails in parallel.
We generate each thumbnail in parallel, then send each thumbnail to the
backend image servers in parallel.
Most images have 5 variants: 'preview' (150x150), 180x180, 360x360,
720x720, and 'sample' (850px width). Plus the original file, that's 6
files we have to save. In production we have 2 image servers, so we have
to save each file twice, to 2 remote servers. Doing all this in parallel
should make uploads significantly faster.
Mark old columns as ignored in preparation for dropping them. Make the
rating and tag_string nullable so they don't have to be set when
creating uploads and can be ignored too.
Add a thumbnail view to the /media_assets page. This page lets you see
all images uploaded to Danbooru by all users (although you can't see who
the uploader is). Also add a link to this page in the subnav bar on the
upload page.
Lock the post during replacement to ensure we have the latest version of
the tags and to ensure nobody else can modify the post until after the
replacement is finished.
Perform the replacement in a before_create callback so that it runs in a
transaction and if it fails, the transaction will rollback and the
replacement record won't be created.
Doing the replacement in a transaction isn't great because, for one
thing, it could hold the transaction open a long time, which isn't good
for the database. And two, if the transaction rolls back, the database
changes will be undone, but if the replacement file has already been saved
to disk, then it won't be undone, which could result in a dangling file.
* Move replacement tests from test/unit/upload_service_test.rb to
test/functional/post_replacement_controller_test.rb
* Move UploadService::Replacer to PostReplacementProcessor.
* Fix a minor bug where if you used the API to replace a post with a file,
the replacement would fail unless you passed an empty string for the
replacement_url.
Fix strings like "pokémon" (NFD form) and "pokémon" (NFC form) being
considered different strings in sources.
Also add a fix script to fix existing sources. There were only 15 posts
with unnormalized sources.
Automatically merge tags when uploading a duplicate.
There are two cases:
* You try to upload an image, but it's already on Danbooru. In this case
you'll be immediately redirected to the original post, before you
can start tagging the upload.
* You're uploading an image, it wasn't a dupe when you first opened the
upload page, but you got sniped while tagging it. In this case your tags
will be merged with the original post, and you will be redirected to the
original post.
There are a few corner cases:
* If you don't have permission to edit the original post, for example
because it's banned or has a censored tag, then your tags won't be
merged and will be silently ignored.
* Only the tags, rating, and parent ID will be merged. The source and
artist commentary won't be merged. This is so that if an artist uploads
the exact same file to multiple sites, the new source won't override
the original source.
* Some tags might be contradictory. For example, the new post might
be tagged translation_request, but the original post might already be
translated. It's up to the user to fix these things afterwards.
Fix not being able to change the post's source when submitting the
upload. For example, if you were uploading a Twitter image from a direct
Twitter image URL, and you tried to change the source to the tweet URL
on the upload page before creating the post, then the source would be
ignored when the post was created.
* Fix broken upload tests.
* Fix uploads to return an error if both a file and a source are given
at the same time, or if neither are given. Also fix the error message
in this case so that it doesn't include "base" at the start of the string.
* Fix uploads to percent-encode any Unicode characters in the source URL.
* Add a max filesize validation to media assets.
Fix the upload page so that it shows similar images (IQDB matches) for
files uploaded from your computer. Before this only worked for files
uploaded from a source.
Rework the upload process so that files are saved to Danbooru first
before the user starts tagging the upload.
The main user-visible change is that you have to select the file first
before you can start tagging it. Saving the file first lets us fix a
number of problems:
* We can check for dupes before the user tags the upload.
* We can perform dupe checks and show preview images for users not using the bookmarklet.
* We can show preview images without having to proxy images through Danbooru.
* We can show previews of videos and ugoira files.
* We can reliably show the filesize and resolution of the image.
* We can let the user save files to upload later.
* We can get rid of a lot of spaghetti code related to preprocessing
uploads. This was the cause of most weird "md5 confirmation doesn't
match md5" errors.
(Not all of these are implemented yet.)
Internally, uploading is now a two-step process: first we create an upload
object, then we create a post from the upload. This is how it works:
* The user goes to /uploads/new and chooses a file or pastes an URL into
the file upload component.
* The file upload component calls `POST /uploads` to create an upload.
* `POST /uploads` immediately returns a new upload object in the `pending` state.
* Danbooru starts processing the upload in a background job (downloading,
resizing, and transferring the image to the image servers).
* The file upload component polls `/uploads/$id.json`, checking the
upload `status` until it returns `completed` or `error`.
* When the upload status is `completed`, the user is redirected to /uploads/$id.
* On the /uploads/$id page, the user can tag the upload and submit it.
* The upload form calls `POST /posts` to create a new post from the upload.
* The user is redirected to the new post.
This is the data model:
* An upload represents a set of files uploaded to Danbooru by a user.
Uploaded files don't have to belong to a post. An upload has an
uploader, a status (pending, processing, completed, or error), a
source (unless uploading from a file), and a list of media assets
(image or video files).
* There is a has-and-belongs-to-many relationship between uploads and
media assets. An upload can have many media assets, and a media asset
can belong to multiple uploads. Uploads are joined to media assets
through a upload_media_assets table.
An upload could potentially have multiple media assets if it's a Pixiv
or Twitter gallery. This is not yet implemented (at the moment all
uploads have one media asset).
A media asset can belong to multiple uploads if multiple people try
to upload the same file, or if the same user tries to upload the same
file more than once.
New features:
* On the upload page, you can press Ctrl+V to paste an URL and immediately upload it.
* You can save files for upload later. Your saved files are at /uploads.
Fixes:
* Improved error messages when uploading invalid files, bad URLs, and
when forgetting the rating.
Add a join table that allows multiple media assets (images or videos) to
be attached to uploads. This is for a future ability to upload multiple
files at once.
Fix it so that when a forum topic is deleted, all posts in the topic are
deleted too. Also make it so that when a forum topic is undeleted, all
posts in it are undeleted too.
Before when a topic was deleted, only the topic itself was marked as
deleted, not the posts inside the topic. This meant that when a spam
topic was deleted, the OP wouldn't be marked as deleted, so any
modreports against it wouldn't be marked as handled.
Also change it so that it's not possible to undelete a post in a deleted
topic, or to delete the OP of a topic without deleting the topic itself.
Finally, add a fix script to delete all active posts in deleted topics,
and to undelete all deleted OPs in active topics.
* Add ability to mark moderation reports as 'handled' or 'rejected'.
* Automatically mark reports as handled when the comment or forum post
is deleted.
* Send a dmail to the reporter when their report is handled.
* Don't show the report notice on comments or forum posts when all
reports against it have been handled or rejected.
* Add a fix script to mark all existing reports for deleted comments,
forum posts, or dmails as handled.
