Each photo card gains a free-text tags input, sent as a raw
comma-separated `tags` form field on upload. The server normalizes it
(parseTags), so the clients stay dumb — no tag parsing on-device.
- Android: PickedItem.tags + setTags; threaded through UploadQueue →
UploadWorker → UploadClient's multipart.
- Desktop: a tags QLineEdit per PhotoItemWidget; UploadClient.upload sends
it.
A native Qt6/C++ desktop client for the gallery's POST /upload API, in
desktop/ with its own flake (kept separate from the Go server module the
same way android/ is). Single-photo parity with the Android app:
- multipart upload with preemptive HTTP Basic auth and retry-aware outcome
classification (uploadclient)
- JPEG/PNG metadata stripped byte-for-byte to drop embedded GPS, EXIF
orientation baked in, and a quality/scale valve for the 20M nginx cap;
HEIC decodes via the qtimageformats plugin (imageprep)
- base URL / username in QSettings, password in the system keychain via
qtkeychain; https required and a trailing /upload stripped (settings)
- settings and post screens in a QStackedWidget (mainwindow)
Native Wayland or xcb is selected at runtime. Bulk upload, EXIF
capture-date prefill, and moving image prep off the UI thread are left as
follow-ups.
