ARCHITECTURE.md described the 2.x write path, where namespace changes
waited for Drive and every mount had its own inode space. Rewrite it
around the local tree (lid, inode = lid + 1, local~<lid> stand-ins), the
queue and its 16 drain workers, sync issues, and the remaining split
between the mount and the mirror engine. Drop the pins.json claim; pins
moved into the database at schema v5.
TESTING.md gains the simulation runs and loses the per-case narrative
that --list and BUGS.md already carry. ROADMAP.md takes over the
post-3.0.0 items from the milestone status file.
Remove MILESTONE-3.0.0-STATUS.md (a working log) and UI_UX_PLAN.md (the
2.x design audit). Code comments and CI that cited the untracked
docs/MILESTONE-3.0.0.md now point at TESTING.md, ARCHITECTURE.md and
ROADMAP.md. Threat-model links follow the section to §10.
A refused change was only on the Sync page. A folder listing now carries
each node's issue (by local id, so a file not yet on Drive has it too),
and the browser's badge ranks it first, folders included, with the
issue's explanation as its tooltip. The event sampler publishes Files
when the set of issues changes, so the badge comes and goes with it.
A move request with two absolute paths is resolved against every
location (My files, on-demand and mirror synced folders) and made as a
server-side move_node. The local side is levelled afterwards: mounts
forget and re-list, a mirror folder renames its copy and baseline along
or drops the copy once Drive holds it.
Anything only this disk holds is refused up front: queued ops, open
writes, unsynced or ignored mirror files and symlinks. The GUI Move
dialog gains a top-level list of locations.
The app and the tray stop polling. pdfs-core adds Request::Subscribe: the
connection stays open and carries Event lines (status, transfers, and
Changed with a Topic), with a heartbeat while quiet. In pdfs-fuse, an
EventHub gives each subscriber a mailbox, code that changes something
publishes its topic, and a sampler publishes the status, transfers and sync
progress when they differ. The app follows the feed on one thread, paints
status and transfers as they arrive, and reloads the page on screen when its
topic changes, including after changes made with the pdfs CLI. A hidden
window keeps the changes and catches up when focused. Front-ends fall back
to polling a daemon that predates subscriptions. Refresh buttons leave the
page headers; F5 and Ctrl+R still reload from the server.
Photos gets a scrubber overlaid on the right edge of the timeline in place
of the slider and scrollbar. It shows the years, appears when the pointer
comes near or the timeline scrolls, names the month under the pointer and
jumps to it on drag. Upload becomes a split button whose menu holds the
Google Photos import. Tiles are pooled per row and rebound instead of
rebuilt, hover scales the thumbnail to 1.02 without a shadow, and tiles
lose their tooltip.
On libadwaita 1.8 or newer the app uses AdwSpinner, AdwToggleGroup,
AdwButtonRow and AdwShortcutsDialog, and keeps look-alike stand-ins on
older releases (src/compat.rs, widgets/compat.rs). It still builds against
libadwaita 1.5 and picks at run time, creating the newer widgets by class
name through GtkBuilder, so every package gets them. PDFS_STAND_IN_WIDGETS
forces the stand-ins.
The Sync and share-link icons draw in full again: GTK drops group
transforms from symbolic icons, so their coordinates are baked into the
paths. All catalogs are updated and complete.
The list and grid view from My files moves into widgets/file_list.rs as
FileList, so Trash, Shared with me and Shared by me share its columns,
selection, context menus, keyboard handling and list/grid switch instead of
each drawing its own rows.
Trash shows where each item came from and when it was deleted. Proton does
not expose the trash time through the SDK yet, so the daemon records when it
first sees a node in the trash (migration V35, trash_seen) and reports that;
the date becomes exact once proton-sdk-rs exposes Node::trash_time. Restoring
offers a Show action, and opening a trashed item explains that it needs to be
restored first.
Shared with me splits files and saved links into two views. Files show who
shared them, with a warning pill for unverified senders, the access they give
and when they were shared. Pending invitations sit in a banner that opens a
dialog to accept or decline each one. Several items can be left at once.
Saved links get their own list with open, copy and remove actions.
Shared by me gains a filter (all, links, people, expired links) and columns
for location, people and link state, with a copy button for live links.
Several items can stop being shared at once, the page refreshes after the
share dialog closes, and a reload rebinds only the rows that changed so the
selection survives.
All catalogs are updated and complete.
Pages no longer swap their content for a "Loading…" status on every load.
A new Loader keeps the last rows on screen and only shows the loading
state if the reply takes longer than 300 ms; a newer load always
supersedes an older one, so a late reply is dropped instead of painted.
Reloading what is on screen keeps it usable; loading something else greys
the old rows out and clears the selection, since their paths would
resolve against the new folder.
My files, search results and Trash now swap only the rows that changed,
so selection, scroll position and thumbnails survive a refresh. Activity
is one sectioned ListView: open conflicts first, then a section per day,
with the filter bar pinned above the list.
Polls give up after 5 s instead of 120 s. A daemon that is running but
doesn't answer now reads as "Not responding" in the app and the tray
rather than as disconnected.
The Sync page gives each folder one card with its state, a Synced /
Online only switch and a menu for the rest; switching either way asks
first and the download prompt shows the free space on the disk.
Enabling, disabling and restarting the Proton Drive service ran
systemctl on GTK's main thread and froze the window. They now run in
the background, and every Retry button goes through one shared restart
helper.
Ten icons are bundled under resources/icons for glyphs no stock theme
has or that read ambiguously (sync, share, people, link, menu, map and
so on). A new test fails when the app or search prompt asks for a
symbolic icon that is neither bundled nor on a list checked against
Adwaita 50, libadwaita and GTK, or when a bundled icon is missing from
the resource manifest. The tray's sync icon, which Adwaita 50 no longer
ships, is now view-refresh.
Wording follows one glossary, recorded in docs/TRANSLATING.md: "Proton
Drive service" instead of "mount service" or "daemon", "Online only"
instead of "On-demand", "Proton Drive folder" instead of "mountpoint".
Dialog headings and buttons use title case and page titles match the
sidebar. Dates go through one formatter (app/dates.rs) and sizes
through i18n::human_bytes, and the cache label is translated.
The status tick stops while the window is hidden or minimized and runs
every fifth tick while it is unfocused, refreshing as soon as it gains
focus. "Sync complete" is announced only for large batches and only
when the window isn't focused. Smaller fixes: Empty Trash hides when
there is nothing to empty, copy buttons confirm with a check mark, the
sidebar status spins until the first report, and Photos moves Import
and Find Duplicates into a menu beside a labelled Select toggle.
All catalogs are updated and complete.
- The Proton accent preference becomes a whole Proton theme that also
holds against a GTK theme imported from gtk.css; folders get Proton's
purple folder icon while it is on.
- Places map markers show one of each town's photos with a count, and
zoomed in on a town every photo sits where it was taken
(Request::PlaceLocations). Photos taken on one spot are listed in a
popover. "Show on map" in the photo viewer goes to the Places map.
- The built-in map draws country borders, sea and land in their own
colours.
- An opt-in street map from OpenFreeMap (vector tiles drawn with cairo,
cached on disk up to 256 MB), with the OpenStreetMap credit on the map
and in About.
- Translations for all catalogs; changelog folded into 2.3.0.
The app, the tray and the search prompt route every user-visible string
through GNU gettext in the `pdfs` text domain, with named placeholders and
plural forms. po/ holds the template, update and build scripts, and catalogs
for de, en_GB, es, fr, it, nl, pl and pt_BR. Preferences gains a Language row
that overrides the system language from the next start (config `language`).
Packages compile the catalogs into /usr/share/locale and the desktop files
carry translated descriptions and keywords. docs/TRANSLATING.md describes
the workflow.
StopSharing / StopSharingByUid remove the public link, external
invitations, invitations and members, trying every step and reporting
what is still shared. Shared by Me gets a Stop Sharing… item and
pdfs unshare <path> works without an id.
The Share dialog validates addresses inline, shows spinners on buttons
while requests run, offers a link expiry and shows an existing link's
expiry.
Pin the split view's sidebar so the wide breakpoint no longer opens the
pane by itself, and show a "No item selected" state instead of closing
it when a navigation clears the entry. The pane follows the header
toggle alone, which also tracks an overlay closed by a click outside.
A click between the files in the grid or list drops the selection, as
in a file manager, unless Ctrl or Shift is held. Backspace goes back
while the focus is on the files.
Revealing the pane on the first click of a double-click reflowed the files under the pointer, so the second click missed and the folder did not open. The pane now follows a header toggle, Alt+Enter and a Details menu item.
Request::Search takes an optional folder scope (serde default, so older
front-ends keep searching everywhere). The GUI offers a This folder toggle
beside the search box and shows a Location column for hits; the CLI gains
pdfs search --in. Pins report whether a pinned file is cached, so pin-derived
search hits badge correctly.
The grid and column view wrap one MultiSelection instead of one each, so
a selection survives switching layout, and both views enable rubberband
selection.
Context menus are PopoverMenus built from gio::Menu through a small
ActionMenu helper, so they are keyboard navigable and read as menus. My
Files follows the item order of UI_UX_PLAN.md §6, adds Open With…, Copy
Link and Versions…, and gains a background menu on empty space and the
Menu key / Shift+F10. The photo tile menu and the ⋮ row menus on Shared
by Me and Computers use the same helper.
The My Files header gets a New menu, a grid/list split button whose menu
sorts by name, size or date (persisted as files_view in the config), and a
folder menu for Build Thumbnails and Open in File Manager. Navigation
keeps a back/forward history (Alt+Left/Right, mouse buttons, Alt+Up).
Move to… browses Drive folders and handles a whole selection, rename
preselects the stem, and files dropped from a file manager upload into
the folder on screen.
Restructure the app shell per docs/UI_UX_PLAN.md phase 1:
- Every destination page gets its own AdwHeaderBar via page_frame(), with
page actions packed into it and a busy spinner beside the title.
- The sidebar is regrouped (files, then a Sync section) with a primary menu
(Preferences, Keyboard Shortcuts, About) and a footer showing sync state,
storage quota and the account with Sign Out.
- The Settings page is gone: startup, folder location, appearance and cache
options move into an AdwPreferencesDialog (Ctrl+,); transfers move to the
Sync page; developer details move into About's debug info.
- Inline CSS moves to a gresource stylesheet using libadwaita colour
variables. The system accent is the default; the Proton purple accent is
an opt-in preference (new `proton_accent` config key, defaults off).
- Add a keyboard shortcuts dialog (Ctrl+?).
libadwaita requirement stays at 1.5, so Ubuntu 24.04 remains supported.
- Move Google Takeout import out of Settings; Photos owns it, and the
Takeout page's back button returns there.
- Trash from the file browser is Undo-only (no confirm); F2 on a
multi-selection explains why it does nothing.
- Ask before sign-out, rejecting an invitation, removing someone's access,
removing a public link, and switching a folder to on-demand.
- Clearer offline wording ("Make available offline" / "Make online only")
with dedicated offline, online-only and upload symbolic icons; the pin row
is hidden for folders.
- Search hits report whether a file is cached, so search results show the
offline badge.
- Activity log: readable Empty Trash / link entries, distinct icons, and
error/warning styling for failures and conflicts.
- Proper singular/plural counts instead of "item(s)" / "archive(s)".
- Name earlier versions by save time instead of revision id; capitalise
the public link role; stop-syncing uses a stop icon, not a trash can.
- Label the Photos Upload and "Show on map" buttons; toast when a
thumbnail build finishes; the versions button follows the mount state.
- Mode switches and device mutations reload both sync pages.
- A queued rename that also changes folder now lands as one `move-multiple`
request carrying the target name instead of rename-then-move, so there is
no half-applied state and no second call for stale name requirements to
hit (B46 follow-up). A destination name collision moves under a conflict
name in one step; same-folder renames still use the rename endpoint.
- Shared with me shows the inviter and invite date (GUI subtitle, `pdfs
shared-with-me`), with a warning when the invitation signature does not
verify against the claimed inviter's keys. `DirEntry` gains `shared_by`,
`shared_at` and `shared_by_unverified`, all serde-defaulted.
- Bump `proton-sdk` / `proton-drive-rs` to 0.6.3 (anonymous-node moves,
`TrashTime` trashed detection).
