The 188-line wire() registered the import page's callbacks in four
comment-delimited sections. Lift each into its own fn: wire_opening_and_closing,
wire_choosing_a_source, wire_options, wire_running. context stays generic
over C on each of the three functions that use it, matching how survey()
and start() already take it (impl Fn, implicitly Sized) rather than coercing
it to a trait object, which would have needed ?Sized added to those two
unrelated functions for no benefit.
run() was 2,724 lines that built every controller, owned the develop
session and its render loop, and registered every develop-screen callback
inline — the state CH-1 in docs/dev/code-health.md describes. This is the
mechanical split CH-1 calls for, done in one pass rather than section by
section since develop_ui.rs only compiles once lib.rs stops registering
those callbacks itself.
develop_ui.rs is new: a DevelopWiring struct holding the session, the rows
model, the redraw/render closures and the other controllers' handles, and
one wire_* function per section run() used to contain — presets, export,
the adjustment panel, film, undo/redo, zoom/pan/crop, rotation/flips/
straightening, navigation and peaking — called in the order run()
registered them. window travels as its own parameter throughout rather
than living on the struct, because the generated AppWindow type is not
Clone; every other field is an owned clone so each function's body could
be pasted from run() unchanged.
lib.rs::run is now under 300 lines: construction and startup only, calling
named functions for the window and its diagnostics/inference wiring, the
launch/library/collections/identity/settings screens, import and merge,
the render loop (render_now/redraw/show), the remote open path, the
window chrome (resize, layout class, panel toggles, back gesture), and
develop_ui::wire for the rest. Every TRACES and GESTURE comment moved with
the code it annotates.
Two latent type errors surfaced while restructuring rather than being
introduced by it: activity and display were being passed around as bare
ActivityLog/DisplayWatch instead of the Rc<...> their constructors
actually return, which only worked before because nothing needed to name
the type explicitly.
The 225-line wire() registered the launch screen's callbacks in nine
comment-delimited sections. Lift them into fn's, merging a few adjacent
ones that were only a handful of lines each: wire_sign_in covers both the
browser flow and the app-password fallback (the same button in two forms),
wire_choose_folder_and_open covers opening the folder browser and the
final "Open library" press, since both are short and sit back to back.
wire_use_folder, wire_sign_out, wire_formats, wire_folder_picker_navigation
and wire_copy_url stay as they were sectioned. wire() calls each in the
original order and keeps the closing render() call, which every section
relies on having run once at startup.
The 312-line wire() registered the panorama page's callbacks in three
comment-delimited sections. Lift each into its own fn: wire_start (the
"Merge to panorama" press, its fetch, and the DARKROOM_START_MERGE dev
entry point — all three only ever used together), wire_decision (confirm,
projection and border chips, the fill knobs), and wire_stop_and_leave
(abandon, close). wire() itself now just calls the three in order; S, C
and F stay generic on wire_start since sources/context/on_done are used
nowhere else.
The 837-line wire() had almost no section comments, unlike its siblings, so
the seams had to be found by reading it rather than following markers. Lift
each into its own fn: wire_dials (the two grouping sliders), wire_navigation
(open/close/switch person — needs models() too, for the missing-model
banner), wire_rename_and_merge (a rename and the namesake offer it can
raise), wire_face_actions (pick/confirm/reject/split, the grid's own
actions), wire_grouping_preview, wire_recluster, wire_indexing (the shared
launcher behind Index/Re-index plus Stop), and wire_coverage_and_ignore.
wire() keeps the generic-to-trait-object coercions and the eyes_available
closure, since most of the above need it, and calls each function in the
original order. The reload! macro moved from inside wire() to module scope,
dedented, since macro_rules is scoped textually and every extracted function
uses it.
The 1,457-line wire() registered every collections-sidebar and grid-drag
callback in one function, sectioned only by comment. Lift each section
into its own fn: wire_selection (split further into wire_selection and
wire_selection_filing, since the original section ran to 375 lines),
wire_drag, wire_trash, wire_trash_from_grid, wire_tree_navigation,
wire_create, wire_rename, wire_remove, wire_row_drag (the tree row's own
hold-drag, which the original "remove" comment's span covered but which
is really a separate feature), wire_row_menu, and wire_membership.
wire() itself now just coerces the shared closures to trait objects and
calls each in the original order. visible_ids is coerced to
Rc<dyn Fn() -> Vec<ImageId>> at the top, alongside on_scope_changed and
session, so the new functions take plain trait objects instead of
threading a generic parameter through every one of them.
library.rs was 7,729 lines wiring together everything "open a remote
library" touches: scanning, pulling other devices' judgements out of
sidecars found along the way, writing local edits back out to the
sidecar outbox, pushing/reloading XMP by hand, fetching and prefetching
thumbnails and originals, generating thumbnails locally, the metadata
and thumbnail background sweeps, on-disk paths for the catalog and
model files, and reading the grid's cells, spans and rating filter.
Same motivation as the develop.rs split (docs/dev/code-health.md CH-1):
a pure, no-behaviour-change move into one file per area, each under
about 1,500 lines.
Tracing actual call sites rather than trusting the file's physical
layout mattered here: `persist`, `load_folder_etags`, `pull_sidecars`,
`load_sidecar_etags`, `record_sidecar_read` and `apply_judgement` sit
textually beside the XMP push/reload functions but are called only
from `run_scan` (pulling a device's own past judgements out of the
sidecars a scan just walked), so they went to scan.rs and not xmp.rs.
`cells` came out at over 1,800 lines once its tests moved with it and
split further into cells.rs (windowed reads, trash, ordinals) and
spans.rs (collection scope, manual reordering, the capture-time
histogram) -- ten submodules rather than the nine first planned.
Previously-private items reached from a sibling module became
`pub(super)`, narrower than the whole-crate reachability one file gave
them. Tests moved with the code they test; the two test fixtures used
across more than one file (`scanned`, and develop.rs's
`session_with_a_left_half_subject` in the matching commit) joined the
shared `test_support` module alongside the existing `entry`/
`with_images`/`image_ids` helpers. `mod.rs` re-exports every module's
public items under `library::`, including the `pub(crate)`
`test_support` module `repairs.rs` reads its fixtures from, so no file
outside `library` needed a change.
The previous commit split develop.rs the same way; taken alone it left
dr-ui without library.rs, so that intermediate commit does not build on
its own. This one restores it.
develop.rs had grown to 9,327 lines covering everything the develop
session does: opening a photograph, the parameter-row and curve-widget
panel model, mask viewing and editing, mask creation and the rasteriser
that turns a mask stack into GPU arrays, spot repairs, scene
segmentation, framing and zoom, white-balance sampling, rendering and
film choice, and the undo/snapshot history. docs/dev/code-health.md
CH-1 names dr-ui's lack of a view layer as the reason every feature
kept landing in a handful of files; this is the first of the two pure
splits it recommends as easy, no-behaviour-change wins independent of
that larger rework.
The boundaries follow the file's own sections (several were already
marked off with comment headers) and the seams a full read turned up
underneath them -- mask storage/rasterisation turned out to be a
distinct concern from mask viewing and editing, and rows/tabs/curves
from each other, so those split further than the headers alone
suggested. Each module stays under about 1,500 lines. Struct fields
and the handful of helper methods now called from a sibling module
became `pub(super)`, which is strictly narrower than the whole-crate
reachability a single file gave them; nothing gained visibility outside
`develop`. Tests moved with the code they test, including the few
cases where a helper one file's tests needed was itself only defined
in another's -- those became shared fixtures in `mod.rs` alongside the
`headless`/`read_back`/`grey_session` helpers that already worked that
way. `mod.rs` re-exports every item `develop::` callers outside this
module used before, so lib.rs, masks_ui.rs and the rest needed no
changes.
wire() registered every grid callback in one 1,214-line function behind
four section comments, two of which were themselves far over 300 lines
with no further markers. Each fenced section becomes its own function,
called from wire() in the original order with the section's own comment
kept as its doc comment:
- "the keyboard cursor (FR-CULL-4)" (496 lines) splits at its own topic
breaks into wire_grid_cursor_and_zoom (cursor movement, cell zoom and
pinch), wire_grid_sync_and_load (explicit sync/thumbnail requests and
the reloads a changed viewport, column count or scroll position
trigger), wire_timeline (the capture-time sidebar) and wire_grid_routes
(grid/launch/develop navigation and a manual rescan).
- "ratings and flags" and "keywords" were already under 300 lines and
become one function each.
- "the filter bar" (447 lines) splits into wire_filter_ratings_and_people
(which keeps the section's own comment), wire_filter_dates and
wire_filter_scope_and_offline.
The three callbacks registered before the first section comment
(on_settings_xmp_reload, on_library_cell_clicked, on_library_roll_pick)
and the trailing crate::recovery_ui::wire call stay directly in wire(),
since neither is inside a fenced section.
wire() registered every mask-panel callback in one 778-line function
behind section comments. Each of the seven fenced sections (computing
the region map, refining a subject's mask, dragging a gradient,
selecting on the photograph, the stack, the edge treatment, adding
layers) becomes its own function, called from wire() in the original
order with the section's own comment kept as its doc comment. The
"adding layers" section was itself over 300 lines and had no further
section markers inside it, so it is split at its own natural seam
between painting/viewing a mask (wire_layers_paint) and working the
parts and add-mask buttons (wire_layers_parts); the second half gets an
introductory doc line since there was no comment of its own to reuse.
Locals declared just for one section's closures (running, refining,
dragging) move into that section's function instead of staying in
wire().
wire() registered every settings-page callback in one 416-line function,
fenced only by section comments. Each fenced section (opening and
closing, cache, faces, export, reset) is now its own private function
that wire() calls in the same order, with the section's own comment kept
as its doc comment. on_budget_changed and on_open are coerced to trait
objects at the top of wire() so the new functions take a plain
Rc<dyn Fn> rather than needing their own generic parameter, with no
change in the closures registered or the order they are registered in.
docs/ had 26 developer documents flat beside the manual, and the two
audiences are very differently sized: most readers want the manual and
the gesture reference, a few want the register, the designs and the
measurements. The manual and gestures.md stay at the top; everything for
someone changing the code moves to docs/dev/, and the two documents that
name their own successors — the v0.1 milestone and the UI-refinement plan
— go to docs/dev/archive/ rather than being deleted, since both are still
cited. docs/README.md is the index, users first.
Every reference follows: code comments, Cargo manifests, the workflows,
the pre-commit hook, the bench and traceability tools (which locate the
repo root by docs/dev/requirements.md now), packaging, the Docker READMEs,
CLAUDE.md, CONTRIBUTING.md and the README. The matrix links one level
deeper and is regenerated. Links out of the moved documents into the tree
gain a level; a link checker over every Markdown file finds none broken.
`changed columns` fires on a change, and a first evaluation is not one:
a grid built after the window had settled at its size never said how
wide it was, so Rust placed month headings for the one column it was
told about at start-up — every month began a row, and was announced
wherever its first cell fell, mid-row included. Opening a collection
showed "October 2025" stranded over a row of August.
The bitmap under the cursor was a solid red rectangle. Slint's drag
overlay uploads the image as a texture, draws it and drops the texture in
one call; with the wgpu FemtoVG renderer the drop is immediate and the
draw is deferred to the flush, so the frame binds femtovg's placeholder —
which is red. An image with a cache key survives in the texture cache
until after the flush, and only a path gives one. So the composite goes
to the data directory's scratch as a PNG and comes back through
load_from_path; one file per drag, removed when the drag ends. A
workaround for Slint 1.17.1, written up as one beside the code.
The probe's comment said a 192px render "averages a small neighbourhood
into each of its pixels". It does not: the composed shader fetches the
source at one position per output pixel - nearest for an unrotated
frame, four photosites blended otherwise - so the probe was a point
sample of a noisy sensor, and two painted-white air conditioners on the
same wall answered +37 and -50.
The tap is now narrowed to the patch of the canvas around the click, a
couple of percent of its width and square on screen, and rendered at
64x64 with interpolation forced on, which puts a sample on every sensor
pixel under it at any ordinary zoom. The samples are averaged, with the
void and clipped ones left out rather than allowed to pull the mean, and
fewer than half surviving is refused. compose_camera_probe takes the
patch; the merge's compose_camera_linear keeps its nearest sampling. The
readback shrinks from six megabytes to sixty-four kilobytes.
A frame of alternating warm and cool columns, averaging neutral, moves
the controls by at most two units; a point sample swung them to sixty.
Sampling the overcast sky on a Canon 6D frame set tint to -100 and
temperature to -15 for a patch the canvas showed as pure white. A clipped
photosite is sensor white, not a colour: every channel stopped counting,
so what the tap hands back is the as-shot multipliers themselves, which
are strongly magenta, and the solver dutifully drove green to its stop.
The display shader already fades such a pixel to a neutral of the same
brightness before any operation runs, so the picker was balancing against
something the photographer could not see.
The probe now refuses a sample with any channel at or above the onset the
shader fades from, the way the solver already refuses black. The threshold
is one constant, CLIP_ONSET, formatted into the shader and read by the
probe, so the two cannot drift apart.
Pressing "pick" and clicking a near-neutral wall on a Canon 6D frame set
tint to -77 and turned the whole photograph green. The white balance
operation runs first in the chain, on camera RGB, before the body's base
curve and colour matrix; the probe was read off a display render after
all three, and the solve treated that sRGB triple as if the gains
multiplied it directly. On a JPEG the two spaces coincide, which is why
the existing tests passed while the picker was broken on every raw file.
The probe now reads the camera-space tap a merge stitches from, composed
under the edit's own framing so a fraction of the canvas is a fraction of
the probe, and puts the as-shot balance on itself - exactly the value the
operation's gains are about to multiply. No operations run in the tap, so
nothing has to be stripped and restored, and the display target is left
alone, so a sample that found nothing usable no longer needs a redraw.
A raw-frame test with the 6D's matrix and a typical as-shot balance
samples a warm grey and asserts the rendered pixel comes back neutral; it
fails on the previous probe.
Every face the user has ruled on entered the pass as an anchor, and the
scan is exhaustive by design (`dr_face::neighbours`), so a person with
750 confirmed faces cost 750 comparisons against every other face in
the library — and the cost of a library grew with how well it was
named. Most of those comparisons said nothing new: thirty frames from
one afternoon are one point of view, not thirty, and a face that
matches one of them matches the rest.
Each person now enters through at most 100 of their anchored faces
(`dr_face::references`). Eligible are those whose raw embedding is at
least 15 long — one above the gallery floor, since a reference speaks
for someone rather than merely being admitted — with an unmeasured
length admitted as it is everywhere else. From those, the set spanning
the greatest volume is chosen greedily: the longest vector first, then
at each step the face with the largest component orthogonal to the
chosen so far. That is pivoted Gram–Schmidt, and the product of the
residuals it picks is the Gram determinant, so the greedy step is the
exact greedy on the objective. A near-duplicate of a chosen face has
no residual and is passed over; the one profile shot among two hundred
frontal frames is taken early; faces inside the span of the chosen add
no volume and are not taken to fill the cap.
The faces not chosen keep their confirmations and are not touched by
the pass — they stay in the anchor map, so it never releases them —
they are simply not compared. A person none of whose faces is long
enough is still stood for, by their longest, rather than losing their
anchor and having their next face filed as a stranger. Under the cap
nothing changes: every eligible face stands, and the short ones stay
in as the probes they were.
At the reference library's 3,851 confirmations the scan shrinks by
about a fifth; at 15,000 it is a fifth of what it was.
"How many images still owe a quality reading" was a correlated EXISTS per
image over `faces`, and the face row is 8 KB of embedding and crop before
the column it looks at, so each count opened every row. Six such counts
run on every open of the Identity screen and at the end of every sweep:
160 ms on the reference library.
V19 adds three partial indexes holding only the faces still owing each
pass, keyed on the image and carrying the model id the predicate reads,
and replaces `faces_image` with `(image_id, model_id)` so "does this image
hold this embedder's faces" is answered from the index too. The planner
takes a partial index when the count is driven from `faces` and ignores it
inside the EXISTS, so `Needs::Face` carries the per-face fragment and
`repairs::count` spells the query from the faces' side; the list and the
per-image check keep the EXISTS. A test holds the two spellings to the
same answer for every repair.
`faces::people` grouped `face_person` after a LEFT JOIN over every person
and sorted the lot by name; the rail then discarded the empty, unnamed
groups a regrouping pass leaves behind — 17,000 of 19,000 rows on the
reference library. `people_in_use` filters them in the WHERE and joins
`people` to face counts aggregated first (2,000 groups), so the sort sees
only the rows that will be drawn. `count_unassigned` replaces fetching
2,400 ids to take their length. `load_people` 22 ms → 10 ms.
`confirm_all` called `faces::confirm` per face, and `split_off` called
`reject` then `confirm` per face: each opens and commits its own
transaction, so a click on a group of several hundred was several hundred
commits. `faces::confirm_all` is two statements — clear the rejections the
confirmations override, then flip the rows — and `faces::reassign` does a
split's reject-and-confirm for every face under one commit. 16 ms → 2 ms
and 22 ms → 4 ms on the largest group.
A confirm or a reject changes one row and redraws the whole grid, and the
redraw re-read every crop blob of the selected person (4 MB for the
largest) and decoded every one — 316 ms per click on the reference
library's 754-face person, to arrive at the pixels already on screen.
`load_faces` now takes the crops the previous load decoded, keyed by face,
and moves each into its new cell; the blob read is skipped when every face
is already in hand. `refresh` drains the old cells into it rather than
cloning them. The redraw is 2.6 ms.
Every click on the Identity screen's face grid — confirm, reject, split,
rename, merge — redrew the whole screen, and the redraw recomputed the
coverage line. That line lists every repair's outstanding images to count
them: six scans of the images table with a correlated EXISTS over the
8 KB face rows, an ORDER BY the job's visiting order, a Target with its
path per row, and a thumbnail-index query per image with faces. On the
reference library (24k images, 19k faces) that was ~200 ms of the
~540 ms each click cost, spent computing a figure a confirm cannot change.
`refresh` now takes what changed: `Changed::Identities` re-reads the rail
and the grid and leaves the coverage line alone; `Changed::Library` — an
open, a sweep ending or stopped, the face data deleted — re-reads it too.
For the times it does run, `repairs::counts` counts instead of building
and dropping the lists, and the thumbnail store is read once
(`ThumbStore::held`) rather than probed once per image in the audit, the
outstanding list and the proxy repair.
`identity_bench` is the measurement: the reads a click performs and the
batch writes, timed against a copy of a real catalog.
Without focus the keys typed into the keywords sheet went to the grid
behind the scrim, and the Return meant for the keyword opened a
photograph. The naming sheet already takes focus on open; do the same.
An empty trash said "No images found — check the library folder and which
formats are ticked", which sends someone off to fix a library that is
fine.
An empty device destination read "Ask each time" on the settings page,
and nothing asks: an export made with the field blank is refused with
"no export folder is set". Say what will happen.
wgpu reports a device out of memory by panicking, and a twelve-frame
merge on a GPU another process is using is where that happens. The panic
unwound the worker, the sender went with it, and the page sat on "Stop"
with every control disabled and nothing to say why — the crash record on
disk was the only sign. Catch the panic and send it as a failure, and
treat a closed channel with no final event as a dead worker too.
The eyes are per layer and outlive the mode, so a photographer coming
back finds the layers they were looking at still lit. But the tint is a
way of looking at a mask, and outside Local there is no mask being looked
at: the sky stayed red through Repair and back in Photo, a mode that had
been left leaving its overlay behind — the fault ui-navigation.md D-N1
exists to prevent.
Five chips in one row declare 440px, and the develop column takes the
widest panel's request — so selecting a category mask levered the sidebar
past the window's edge, clipping the histogram, the group strip and the
subject list. The same trap ChipGrid's comment records for film formats.
A heading was drawn only on a cell that both began a month and began a
row, so at seven columns most months were never named, and the one
heading on screen — always on the window's first cell — was wrong about
every row below it. Worse, two headings drawn on the same cell overprinted
each other. Now a row carries a heading whenever its first cell's month is
not the one last announced: a month starting mid-row is named on the next
row it opens, one row late and right about everything under it.
Every shard is in WAL mode and every put opens its own connection, so
while thumbnails are being generated on several threads — which is when
the first sync pass runs — the log is never checkpointed and the main
file holds whatever the last quiet moment left in it. For a shard created
seconds earlier that is nothing: a zero-byte file with the schema still
in the log. The sync read that file and uploaded it, and every other
device merging it failed with "no such table: thumbs" on every pass.
Copy the shard through SQLite's backup API into scratch first, which
serialises against writers and carries the log, and upload that.
Confirming "/" in the folder picker set an empty root, which the launch
model read as no root at all: "Open library" stayed disabled after the
question had plainly been answered, and a folder library — whose folder
is the whole library — could never be opened without first descending
into a subfolder of it. The empty string was carrying two meanings.
Record the choice as its own fact on the account (`root_chosen`, defaulted
so existing configuration loads unchanged), treat a folder endpoint as
chosen by definition, and let the launch screen say so: a folder is shown
as a LIBRARY rather than an ACCOUNT, the second question becomes an
optional "scan only a subfolder", and the library header names the folder
instead of calling it "· whole account".
The scan reads the first 256 KB of a file for its metadata. A camera
writes its IFDs at the front, so that is the whole structure; the linear
DNG a merge writes puts its first IFD after the pixels, and rawler,
given the head alone, finds no decoder in it. The composite was
catalogued without a date and sorted to the very end of the grid, after
every dated photograph — which is where a panorama merged on the tablet
went unfound.
dr-decode's own TIFF reader now reads through a head and a tail at a
known offset; trailing_ifd says where the tail starts and
metadata_split reads the two together. The scan, when the head fails
and points beyond itself, fetches from the IFD to the end — kilobytes —
and dates the file from both. Tested against the writer's own output.
The reference desktop's only system ONNX Runtime is Arch's
onnxruntime-opt-cuda: 1.29, built without TensorRT and against cuDNN 8
on a cuDNN 9 machine. The probe rejects both providers correctly and
the app runs on the CPU provider, which is right and not what anyone
wants. runtime/ beside the models is now searched ahead of /usr/lib,
tools/fetch-desktop-runtime.sh fills it with the four libraries from
the current onnxruntime-gpu wheel (cuDNN 9, TensorRT 10), and the
About caption lists every rung that lost and why, not only the first.
Verified: the app selects TensorRT from that directory with no
environment variable set.
A fill that went wrong took a seven-minute merge to look at again. Now
DR_FILL_DUMP=dir makes the merge write what the filler was given, and
the fill example runs fill_border on that, or a crop of it, on the engine
and writes coarse, each band and the feathered result as PPMs — seconds
per attempt on TensorRT. Both examples take DARKROOM_ORT_DIR as the app
does, and --wait-engines lets a compiling rung finish before timing.
A Border choice beside the projection — crop to the picture, or fill it
— that redraws the preview filled so the invented pixels are seen before
they are confirmed (FR-MRG-1), greyed with the reason when the model is
not there. The job fills at half the composite's resolution in a
display-ish space (white balance, matrix, gamma; invertible) and samples
the result back into the linear DNG wherever no frame reached; the
sidecar's merge line says border filled and with which knobs.
Experimental because the fill is right in thin borders and wrong in deep
corners, where the model's Places2 prior puts clouds in sky and water
under grass; so its six knobs — working scale, edge erosion, coarse pass,
band width, mirror depth, seam feather — are sliders under the choice,
each committing a redraw, until the defaults are right.
A library's records are never all complete at once. A face found before
its quality was kept has no quality; one found before the eye models
existed has no reading; one adopted from a peer's shard has no crop; an
image the fast detector examined on a 1024 px proxy has boxes the current
detector would not have drawn; an image the scan stat'ed has no capture
date. On the reference library that is 17,762 faces under the bare
w600k_mbf id with no quality, no reading and no dense landmarks, 4,144 of
them without a crop, beside 12,217 images the fast detector examined and
found nothing in. Every one of those gaps was its own pass — V14's
measuring pass, §17.5's eye pass, the sweep's proxy repair, the sweep's
detector upgrade — with its own work list, its own count and its own idea
of done, and adding a per-face field meant adding a pass. There was no
pass at all for the case the library is actually in: boxes and landmarks
drawn by a weaker detector on a proxy, which every later per-face pass
would have read from.
dr_ui::repairs replaces them with one job over a registry. A Repair names
one thing a record can lack — the predicate that says which images still
owe it, the input its handler needs (a header, the original, or a native
render), the handler, and what to record for an image that can never be
done. The job unions the predicates into one work list, fetches each
image once at the most any claimant asks for, renders it at most once,
and runs every handler whose predicate that image still matches, checked
again before each because a detection writes every field a per-face
handler would fill. The registry today: face-proxy, face-quality,
face-eyes, face-crop, face-detection, face-upgrade, metadata — the last
there to say that this is not a face job. Adding a field is one entry.
A repair's predicate is the only definition of its work: the count the
settings page shows, the list the job fetches and the check before its
handler run are one predicate, so the job converges. That is why the
registry is cut to what the device can do rather than listing what it
skips — an entry is a count and a set of originals to fetch — and why an
eye reading that cannot be cut is not a criterion.
The catalog side is generic to match: record_updates writes whichever
fields a FaceUpdate carries and re-marks the image so the shards export
it; faces_needing and count_needing answer a predicate the caller
supplies, replacing the measuring pass's three special cases.
Two buttons on the settings page run the job and differ in one
predicate. "Index faces" converges on coverage: has anything examined
this image. "Re-index every face" converges on provenance: face-detection
claims every image with no marker under the chosen detector, in either
of its forms (FaceDetector::model_ids, so a desktop in f32 and a tablet
on the Hexagon do not re-index each other's work), and a marker saying a
weaker one looked is not that. An original over the fetch budget is left
exactly as it was under the re-index, where the sweep marks it examined:
a re-detection with nothing found would delete the faces, and "cannot
fetch" is not "no faces".
XFeat's two exports are a Keypoints role now; the crate no longer names
tract, and the app compiles TensorRT engines for both ahead of the
first merge. The probe picks the smallest *detector* rather than the
smallest file: the tablet's first run chose the 112 KB eye classifier,
which has no int8 form, and reported the Hexagon as failed for want of
one.
The desktop names where a package may have put libonnxruntime — an
override variable, beside the executable, the package's own library
directory, the Flatpak prefix, the system library directory — and
Android points at the APK's native library directory, which is also
what Qualcomm's DSP loader must be told for the Hexagon skel. Android
starts the engine at the end of the model unpack rather than at launch,
because the probe fingerprints the model files and a first launch has
none until then.
The About panel gains an Inference row beside Graphics, re-read every
two seconds while the probe runs and engines land, and faces.model_id
carries the detector's form: an int8 detector finds a different set of
faces and is a different population (docs/inference.md §7). A
low-memory signal drops every idle session with the GPU caches.
The APK assembly bundles ONNX Runtime and the Qualcomm HTP libraries
from Maven, fetched by tools/fetch-android-runtime.sh with their
published checksums; RUNTIME_DIR=none builds the tract-only APK, which
is a slower app and not a broken one. The desktop packages carry no
runtime yet.
Two probe fixes from the first desktop run: the floor must not be
built with CPU fallback disabled, and a versioned libonnxruntime.so is
a runtime too. On the reference desktop the probe now loads ONNX
Runtime 1.30, measures 30 ms on the CPU provider, and selects TensorRT
at 1.5 ms.
Picking a chip stored the choice for the merge and changed nothing on
screen — the chip did not even highlight, since the selected property
was never written back. Now the pick is reflected, and the job, waiting
for its decision, takes a Preview request, draws the alignment on the
chosen surface at proxy cost and reports again; the drain puts the new
picture and its size up. Auto is the surface the field of view suggests.
Also:
The largest rectangle inside the frames' coverage is found a row at a
time — a histogram of consecutive covered rows and a stack pass per row —
so the composite is never held to be measured (FR-MRG-11). It is written
as DefaultCropOrigin/DefaultCropSize (FR-MRG-4): the file opens on the
picture, the border is still in it, and resetting the crop shows it.
rawler reports the crop as the picture, which the test checks.
FR-MRG-4 records the question raised the same day — fill the border
rather than crop it — as open: a non-generative fill through the heal,
or a generative inpainter with its licence and weights. Neither decided.
A sweep whose frames overlap by more than half reads as one photograph,
and the page's job is to show frames. Each footprint is walked along its
border and drawn in amber where it lands, so twelve frames look like
twelve and a misplaced one is visible as such. The preview may take most
of the page's height rather than 320 px.
derived_from and merge are top-level sidecar fields (FR-MRG-6): one line
per source in order, and how the composite was made. A build that
predates them keeps the lines as unknown and writes them back. The job
writes the sidecar beside the composite and stages it with its own
record when the composite goes through the outbox.
DARKROOM_START_MERGE=a.CR2,b.CR2 lands on the merge page at startup with
the job running on local files, on the model of DARKROOM_START_IDENTITY,
for looking at the page where synthetic clicks do not reach it. The fetch
and the start are shared with the grid's button.
panorama.md §11 records what exists, the fixture's figures, and the six
things still open, auto-crop first.
dr_ui::merge is the orchestration with no interface in it: decode each
frame to sensor data and build its graph as a session would (orientation,
lens profile); render each through the camera-space tap at proxy size and
detect keypoints there, so the alignment is measured in the undistorted
frame the tiles are rendered in; align; solve one gain per frame from the
proxies' overlaps; draw the aligned set in colour for the page; then wait.
Nothing is written until a Decision arrives (FR-MRG-1). The merge writes
a linear DNG through the outbox with a destination record, so the drain
puts it beside its sources on a folder library and a server alike, and
the library rescans (FR-MRG-3).
merge.slint is the page, on the import page's model: the alignment
table with a failed frame named on its row and the button held off
(FR-MRG-5), the preview, the projection choice, Stop and Back. A
"Merge to panorama" button joins the grid's selection bar at two frames.
Headless, the example produces the fixture's 22 993 x 5 980 DNG in 45 s
on the reference desktop, exposures balanced across the stop of drift.
Once every image has been through the detector and only readings are
left — the state an already-indexed library is in the day the eye models
arrive — the button reads "Read eye state" rather than promising to
index, and the coverage line says what the faces are waiting for.
