makepkg --printsrcinfo does not run pkgver(), so the -git .SRCINFO kept
the version from when the package was created and push.sh never had a
change to publish. update.sh now runs makepkg -od --noprepare first so
pkgver() writes the current git describe version into the PKGBUILD.
Videos without a server thumbnail fell through to the local fallback,
which downloaded the whole file, failed to decode it as an image and
wrote the video off for good. Grab one frame with ffmpeg instead, a
second in or from the start for shorter clips. Probe for ffmpeg before
downloading, bound every run, and skip videos over 256 MiB.
Migration V32 gives the videos written off so far another try.
Those videos had no server thumbnail because our uploads never sent one.
Every upload path (bulk upload, drained mount writes, conflict copies,
new revisions and folder sync) now attaches a thumbnail rendered from
the local file, kept under the 60 KiB Proton's own clients use. Files
that are not images or videos, or cannot be decoded, upload bare as
before; a .ts file only counts as video with an MPEG-TS sync byte.
ffmpeg is a new optional dependency in the PKGBUILDs.
The month scrubber sat under the overlay scrollbar, which widens under
the pointer, so the two collided. Keep the scrubber clear of it.
The gallery jumped when thumbnails loaded, on zoom and on tab switches.
Relayout anchored on the first bound row, but ListView keeps off-screen
rows bound with stale allocations, and scroll_to on an off-screen row
aligns it to the top. Anchor on the first mapped row that is actually
visible instead.
The viewer's details panel opened empty: the title's hexpand propagated
up to the revealer, which then took all the width. Set hexpand on the
revealer explicitly.
EXIF details read like a camera: Make, Model and Lens lose their EXIF
quotes, a model that already names its maker is not repeated, shutter
speeds are rounded (1/19 s), and ISO is labelled.
A write that lands while a revision is on the wire cancels that upload
through the flag CountingReader checks before each read. The cancel was
reported as ErrorKind::Interrupted, which every read loop retries,
including the SDK's read_full_block. The flag never clears, so the drain
thread spun at 100% CPU forever and the transfer stayed listed as
uploading at 0 bytes until the daemon restarted. A growing browser
download (.crdownload) triggers it naturally.
Report the cancel as ErrorKind::Other so the SDK fails the upload;
drain_revision already treats a cancelled upload as abandoned, not
failed. Tracked as B98.
A release tag now updates and pushes all three AUR packages once the
GitHub release exists, then commits the refreshed recipes back to main.
A push to main that changes the -git recipe publishes that package
alone; plain upstream commits need no AUR push because its pkgver()
follows git at build time.
Needs the AUR_SSH_PRIVATE_KEY repository secret.
The All/Photos/Videos/Raw tabs, the "12 photos" subtitle and the
"No favorite videos in June 2024" heading were still built from English
literals. Each heading is now a whole translatable sentence with a
{month} placeholder, and the subtitle uses plural forms.
Also fill in the French "Documents" search chip, which was left
untranslated because it matches the English word.
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.
Show only sections with content, invitations first, and an empty state
when nothing is shared. Rows drop the mount path from the subtitle, show
access as a tinted pill (Can view / Can edit / Can manage) and move
Open, Show in My Files and Leave into a menu. The invitations banner is
gone now that invitations lead the page.
ListDeviceRestorableFolders and RestoreDeviceFolders read another
registered device's folders and attach them with that device's share,
without changing this machine's cached device. The Computers page moves
restore into each computer's menu, and pdfs sync restore takes --device.
The header subtitle shows the path inside a shared folder and a header
back button replaces the Back row. An adw::Banner counts pending
invitations and scrolls to them.
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.
Themes style the insides of list items with descendant selectors, and
those reached through a popover parented to a grid tile, spacing out
every menu section. Menus now live under the outermost list view.
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.
The tray icon follows the drive's phase (synced, syncing, paused,
offline, needs attention) and reports NeedsAttention while changes keep
failing. The menu gains an issues item that opens the Sync page, Sign In
when signed out, Hide Tray Icon (persisted as tray_hidden) and Stop
Proton Drive, which pdfs-app confirms via --confirm-stop. A second
pdfs-app launch raises the running window.
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.
Group the feed by day with a time column and filter chips, fold a
conflict logged on every daemon run into one row with a count, and put
the conflicts still open in a Needs attention section. Conflict rows
open the Sync page's resolve dialog and read as resolved once the copy
is gone.
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.
The timeline pages itself in 1.5 screens before the end instead of offering a Load more button, and a year-marked month scrubber jumps to any month, loading long pages until it is reached.
Auto-hiding controls, zoom and pan, a docked details panel, paging past the loaded photos with the library total in the counter, inline video playback, Save a Copy under the real name with an error toast, and Open With through the app chooser.
New requests CreateAlbum, RenameAlbum, DeleteAlbum, AddToAlbum and
RemoveFromAlbum, backed by proton-drive-rs 0.6.6. The Albums view gains a
New Album button and a card menu with Rename and Delete; photos gain Add
to Album (menu and selection bar) and Remove from Album inside an album.
CLI: pdfs new-album, rename-album, delete-album, add-to-album,
remove-from-album.
Also fixes the album view state: the timeline filters are hidden on the
album grid, the header counts albums, Back keeps the grid and its scroll
position, and the timeline is only reloaded when an album replaced it.
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.
An adw::Breakpoint at 1000sp uncollapses the details OverlaySplitView, so
the pane sits beside the files instead of over them. The pane gains
Sharing and Versions sections, filled from ListShare and ListRevisions
when an entry is selected, with Share…, Copy Link and Versions… buttons.
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.
User-visible strings, doc comments and docs now say "Favorite" and
"color", matching the `pdfs favorite` command; UI_UX_PLAN.md §8 records
the choice. The changelog's 1.11.x and Unreleased entries said schema 30,
but V31 (`photos.resolved_at`) shipped in 1.11.0. Adds the missing
release links for 1.10.0 to 1.11.1.
Every transfer charges the bytes it moves to its direction's rate limit,
a virtual clock shared by all transfers with a one-second burst, and sleeps
off any overshoot. On runtime workers the sleep goes through block_in_place
so FUSE reads keep their threads.
The caps are set live with SetBandwidthLimits, persisted to config and
applied at mount start. Preferences gains a Network group with debounced
MiB/s editors, and the CLI gains `pdfs sync limit --up/--down`.
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.
Conflict copies under My Files are paired with their original and listed
over the control socket. The Sync page shows them with a resolve dialog
(keep original, keep copy, keep both under a new name), and the CLI gains
`pdfs conflicts` and `pdfs conflicts resolve`. Every resolution goes
through the Proton trash, and files that are open, being written or still
owed an upload are refused.
Backend (docs/UI_UX_PLAN.md B-1, B-2):
- Request::SetSyncPaused { paused, until } pauses the drain worker and the
mirror reconcile. FUSE reads, write staging, the watcher and the poll keep
running. The pause is persisted in the `state` table (`sync_paused_until`),
so it survives a restart; a timed pause ends by itself through a timer
thread, re-armed on mount. Resuming wakes the drain and runs a full
reconcile. Response::Status gains `paused` and `paused_until`.
- Request::ListPendingOps lists the queue with paths, attempts, last error,
next attempt and parked/failing flags. Request::RetryPendingOp { id } makes
one backed-off op (or every failed one) due now. Parked ops are never
un-parked and nothing is dropped from the queue.
Front ends:
- Sync page: a status card with Pause/Resume (split button with 1 h, 8 h and
24 h pauses) and a "Waiting to Upload" list with Retry now and Retry All.
- The sidebar strip and the tray show the paused state; the tray gains Pause
Sync / Resume Sync and names failing changes.
- CLI: `pdfs sync pause [--for 30m|1h|2d]`, `pdfs sync resume`,
`pdfs sync queue`, `pdfs sync retry [id]`; `pdfs status` reports a pause.
Not in this phase: merging Activity into the Sync page, discarding a queued
op (needs a recovery copy first), and per-folder pause.
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.
Audit of every GUI page, the photo viewer, the tray and the backend
capabilities a sync UI needs. Lists found bugs, a glossary, a new
information architecture (Sync hub, Preferences dialog) and a phased
roadmap including pause/resume and conflict resolution.
