The view named by -default-view (timeline, the default, or grid) is published
at the site root; the other is served under /timeline/ or /grid/. viewBase and
pageURL derive every page path, pager link and the Timeline<->Grid cross-link
from the single setting, and Build removes both timeline/ and grid/ on each run
so flipping the default never leaves a stale root behind.
Reimplemented on trunk (which has albums and the /manage feature) rather than
cherry-picked, since the original was written against an earlier base. Credit
for the edit/delete and default-view ideas goes to Santhosh Raju, now noted in
a README Contributors section.
- main.go: -default-view flag, validated (fatal on anything but timeline/grid)
- module.nix: services.photogallery.defaultView enum option
- templates: timeline/grid/day/album/albums cross-links use TimelineURL/GridURL
- tests: timeline-root, grid-root, and switch-cleanup
An album is a tag. Photos carry lowercase free-text tags in their .toml
sidecar (`tags = [...]`), parallel to the existing day grouping — no
database, all derived at build time.
- albums.go: parseTags (lowercase/trim/dedupe, slug via sanitiseSlug),
groupByTag mirroring groupByDay, and rendering for album pages, the
index, and the JSON API. Slug collisions between distinct names are
suffixed and logged.
- Routes: /album/<slug>/ (paginated square grid per tag), /albums/ (index
with counts), /tags.json (machine-readable tag list, served statically
like feed.xml).
- POST /upload gains a `tags` field written into the sidecar; the web
upload form gains a tags input.
- Tags shown on each photo page linking to their album; an Albums link in
the timeline/grid header.
- Web: favicon.ico + png icons under static/, served from the site root
and linked from every page head.
- Android: the artwork becomes the launcher icon — the 432px adaptive
foreground over the gruvbox background, replacing the placeholder vector
drawables.
- Desktop: the icon is the Qt window/taskbar icon (embedded via app.qrc),
and the app is now an installable package — a wrapped binary, a
photog.desktop entry, and hicolor icons — so `nix profile install
./desktop` puts "Photog" in the application menu.
Each timeline date heading now links to /day/<YYYY-MM-DD>/, a page
holding just that day's photos with a back link to the timeline.
renderDayPages writes one per groupByDay run; the ISO label doubles
as the URL slug.
The day-grouped timeline is now the site root (/, /page/N/); the flat
square grid moves to /grid/ (/grid/page/N/). Both are linked from the
profile header, separated by a divider.
Timeline pages pack whole day-groups until they reach the page size,
never splitting a day across a page boundary, so appended pages never
repeat a date heading — the infinite-scroll handler relies on this.
Page size is configurable via -page-size (default 60), threaded through
the Generator and exposed as services.photogallery.pageSize in the
NixOS module.
New /timeline/ page renders photos grouped into consecutive same-day
runs (ISO date heading plus per-day count), reusing the square grid.
groupByDay collapses the newest-first photo list; the page is not
paginated. Linked from the profile header.
