Correcting the previous commit: I claimed VFS placeholders could not be
downloaded. That was wrong. The desktop client exposes a socket at
$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/Nextcloud/socket speaking newline-delimited
COMMAND:argument, and MAKE_AVAILABLE_LOCALLY:<path> does fetch the file.
Verified against client 4.0.7: a 1-byte stub became a real 2.8MB file in
2.8 seconds.
Implemented as dr-sync-nextcloud::desktop_client, deliberately optional.
Android has no desktop client, no XDG_RUNTIME_DIR socket and no
placeholders, so detect() returns None there and callers fall back to the
connector. It earns its place only because it is ~30 lines with no
dependencies: where a library already lives in a VFS folder, asking the
client to fetch beats downloading a second copy over WebDAV and leaving
the client's placeholder state inconsistent.
What this does not change: hydration is whole-file, so it suits the
original tier and never browsing. Filling a grid this way downloads the
entire library. Range extraction remains the only mechanism satisfying
FR-NC-3, and ARCH §9.0 now says so precisely.
Also fixes two real Android build failures found by cross-compiling:
- reqwest's `rustls` feature defaults to aws-lc-rs, whose aws-lc-sys
crate is C and fails under the NDK — exactly the pain D1 chose Rust
to avoid. Switched to rustls-no-provider + ring, installing the
provider in the constructor so no caller can build a client that
panics on first use.
- ring itself needs CC/AR per target; cargo-ndk sets only the linker.
Added them to the container.
87 tests passing. dr-sync-nextcloud cross-compiles for aarch64-linux-android.
Investigated using the Nextcloud desktop client's Virtual Files as a
cache instead of talking to the server directly. Measured on this
machine (client 4.0.7): the configured folder holds 121,785 placeholders
against 10,267 materialised files, including 7,037 CR2 and 9,411 DNG.
Three findings, each independently disqualifying:
- Linux VFS is *suffix* mode. A dehydrated IMG.CR2 exists only as
IMG.CR2.nextcloud holding one byte; the real name is absent.
- Reading a placeholder does not hydrate it. dd of the first 256KB
returned 1 byte, the stub was unchanged, and the real name never
appeared. There is no FUSE layer — the stub is an inert marker.
- Even with hydration the granularity is wrong: VFS has two states,
1 byte or all bytes, and the preview tier needs a ~256KB prefix of
a 27MB file. That is ~100x what FR-NC-3 requires.
Recorded as ARCH §9.0. Coexistence is still supported: dr-types now
recognises *.nextcloud stubs, and the viewer lists them as "not
downloaded" rather than as corrupt files or not at all.
So the connector talks to the server directly, as D7 specified.
Implemented: Login Flow v2, PROPFIND with oc:fileid and nc:has-preview,
ETag pruning via a Depth:0 probe, range GET with local slicing when the
server ignores the header, conditional PUT, and /core/preview with
forceIcon=false. delta() returns Unsupported and says why.
Chunked upload v2 is not implemented yet — put() rejects bodies over
5MB explicitly rather than silently truncating.
Two bugs found by testing: my hand-computed epoch in a date test was a
day out (the parser was right), and quick-xml reaches EOF on truncated
input without erroring, so unbalanced elements needed an explicit check
— a half-parsed multistatus must not look like an empty directory.
83 tests passing.
dr-decode exposes four entry points rather than one decode, because
callers differ sharply in what they need (ARCH §3.2): culling wants a
preview, the grid wants metadata, only develop and export touch sensor
data. Fusing them forces a full decode where a header read suffices,
which is why Lightroom stalls ~2s per image while culling.
Smoke-tested against 1,852 real Canon CR2 files (EOS 6D, ~27MB each):
metadata 0.2ms from a 256KB header read, no full decode
preview ~250ms 5472x3648, downscaled to 2048 for display
jpeg 3.0ms
Two findings worth recording:
rawler 0.7.2's CR2 decoder implements only full_image; thumbnail_image
and preview_image are unimplemented trait defaults returning None. So
every rung of the preview ladder resolves to a full-resolution decode at
~250ms — 5x over NFR-P13's 50ms budget. CR2 does carry smaller IFDs, so
the fix is our own IFD walk or an upstream contribution. The ladder is
written now so that fixing it is a decoder change, not a change to every
caller. Recorded in milestone-v0.1 risks.
Preview.downscale_to bounds memory: a 5472x3648 RGBA preview is 79.8MB,
which exhausts a phone's budget after a handful of images. Box-filtered
so downscaled thumbnails do not alias.
Also fixed a RefCell double-borrow that panicked on first navigation —
`*x.borrow_mut() = *x.borrow() + 1` holds both borrows at once. Verified
with 10,000 programmatic navigations.
58 tests passing. Traceability 20.3% (29/143).
Ports JellyTau's traceability tooling to Rust, carrying across the bug it
was repaired for. That gate divided a traced count by frozen literal
denominators; the requirements file outgrew them and it reported 158%
coverage, so it could never fail its own threshold.
Two rules, both enforced by the extractor's own tests:
- denominators parsed from docs/requirements.md at run time
- coverage is |traced ∩ defined| / |defined|, never a raw traced count
The gate additionally fails hard on a misconfigured run — zero
requirements parsed or zero files scanned — rather than reporting a
plausible 0%, and on any orphan tag naming a requirement that does not
exist.
Adapted for DarkRoom: IDs are FR-CAT-1 / NFR-P13 / FR-DEV-3a shapes
rather than JellyTau's fixed three digits, and decisions (D), spikes (S),
milestone items (M) and test ids remain taggable while being excluded
from the denominator — counting them inflated it by 25.
Also adds dr-sync: the RemoteBackend trait and capability model, so the
Nextcloud connector is one implementation rather than the only shape the
engine understands. No mature Nextcloud crate exists (reqwest_dav is too
thin), so the connector will be hand-rolled over reqwest per D7.
Gitea workflows follow the same style: containerised, commented with the
reasoning, desktop and Android on every push, plus a CI check that no
core/ crate depends on the UI toolkit (ARCH §6.5a).
Coverage today: 13.3% (19/143). 50 tests passing.
Establishes the v0.1 foundations on both platforms:
- dr-types: SourceRef (never a filesystem path — Android SAF has none),
Format, Availability, Validator with ETag quote normalisation
- dr-gpu: wgpu device, compute pass writing a storage texture, resize
- dr-ui: Slint shell with FR-UI-1 adaptive layout, computed in Rust to
avoid a binding loop
- docker/android: pinned toolchain, verified producing API 28 ARM binaries
Measured the cost of the temporary CPU readback path (dr-gpu bench):
compute is 0.06-0.28ms across sizes while readback is 0.63-7.43ms, so
readback is 90-96% of frame time and scales with area. Recorded in
ARCH §6.1 — this is why spike S1 is the priority.
Mitigations pending S1: reuse the staging buffer, apply at most one
resize per frame, and cap render resolution at 2048 on the long edge.
10 tests passing; core crates cross-compile for aarch64-linux-android.
