Search's instant leg read only downloaded items, so with no downloads it
returned nothing and every keystroke fell through to a full Recursive=true
server query. It now reads the whole synced catalog through the same
availability CTE get_items uses, gated on the same include_catalog_browse
flag so search and browse cannot diverge. (UR-065, DR-108)
Also fixes three defects found while confirming that:
- items_fts grew by a full duplicate index every catalog pass. INSERT OR
REPLACE fires no AFTER DELETE trigger without recursive_triggers, so the
old index row was orphaned, and a TEXT PRIMARY KEY meant the replacement
took a fresh rowid and inserted a second entry. Now a real upsert, with
migration 021 rebuilding existing indexes. (DR-110)
- DELETE FROM items existed nowhere, so server-side deletions never
propagated. Adds a post-crawl mark-and-sweep, scoped to crawled types,
skipping downloaded items, and refusing to run after a partial crawl
because items.parent_id cascades. (DR-110)
- The index omitted MusicArtist, Playlist and People, which search groups
results by. Adds them plus people_fts (migration 022). (DR-111)
Re-indexing moves from a frontend startup call to a Rust background task
with a 6h TTL, so a long session no longer searches a stale catalog and a
restart no longer forces a crawl regardless of freshness. (DR-109, IR-030)
Downloads gain a lifetime tier. Eviction selected every completed row by
age with no download_source filter, so hitting the storage limit deleted
the oldest download -- typically one saved deliberately for offline -- to
make room for a precached track. It now reclaims only 'auto' rows, and
expired ones are reclaimed first, before live cache is evicted.
(DR-126, DR-127)
Downloaded video and audio-only handoffs now play from disk instead of
streaming; the video path had never consulted downloads at all. No
transcode is involved: MPV runs video=no and ExoPlayer has no surface for
an Audio item. (DR-123 in part, DR-128)
FTS queries are built as quoted phrases so apostrophes, hyphens and
slashes are data rather than operator syntax, and the item-type filter is
bound rather than interpolated.
Specs: docs/specs/catalog-index-search.md,
docs/specs/read-through-media-cache.md
Includes concurrently-developed favourites browsing and background-audio
stream-end handling; the two workstreams share offline.rs, lib.rs and
online.rs, so no subset of files builds independently.
Add a metered/cellular network detector so downloads honour a "WiFi
only" preference. Android reports network type via NetworkTypeMonitor;
Rust exposes it through download/network.rs and holds the queue pump when
on a metered connection, emitting a queue-wide waitingForNetwork event.
The frontend surfaces this via the networkType service and a
waitingForNetwork store flag.
TRACES: UR-053 | DR-074
Hand video playback off to a native audio-only stream when the app is
backgrounded or locked, with no on-device video decode (UR-040). Adds
player_enter/exit_background_audio commands, an audio-only stream URL
for video items across the repository layer, and the frontend handoff
state machine wired into VideoPlayer. Includes accompanying
repository/offline/player refactoring and regenerates the traceability
matrix.
Library screens:
- Add dedicated music, TV, and movie landing pages (hero banner +
horizontal carousels) backed by new music/tv/movies stores.
- Route tvshows libraries to /library/tv; surface rediscover ("haven't
listened to in a while") albums via a new repository method across
online/offline/hybrid repos plus the repository_get_rediscover_albums
command.
- Add an A-Z jump bar for long alphabetically-sorted lists, with grid
index anchors in LibraryGrid/LibraryListView/TrackList.
- Filter the "Podcasts" folder out of music library queries.
Downloads:
- Add a backend queue pump: enqueue_download / enqueue_video_downloads
persist the resolved stream URL + target dir on each row (migration
017), and the pump starts up to max_concurrent and drains the rest
automatically as slots free, instead of the frontend silently dropping
items past the concurrency limit. Album/series/season buttons now
enqueue rather than calling start_download directly.
Other fixes:
- Hybrid search now returns instant cache results and pushes the merged
cache+server union via a request-id-tagged search-event, so superseded
queries can't clobber fresher results.
- URL-encode SearchTerm / genres / item types in online repo requests.
- Android: pause on audio-becoming-noisy (headphone/BT disconnect).
- Add #[specta::specta] to all 201 #[tauri::command] functions.
- Derive specta::Type on all IPC DTOs (repository/types, settings, player/storage/
download command DTOs, player enums, jellyfin SessionInfo/NowPlayingItem/PlayState,
ThumbnailCacheStats, DownloadInfo, CacheConfig, etc.).
- Replace tauri::generate_handler! with a tauri_specta::Builder + collect_commands!
in lib.rs (exports bindings.ts in debug builds).
Two contract changes required by specta constraints (frontend migration follows):
- specta caps command arity at 10 args: download_item_and_start / download_item /
download_video now take a single request struct (params bundled, body unchanged
via destructuring).
- specta can't parse split serde rename_all: SessionInfo/NowPlayingItem/PlayState
switched to rename_all = "PascalCase" (Jellyfin deserialization preserved; these
now serialize PascalCase to the frontend).
cargo check --lib is clean (0 errors). Frontend migration to bindings.ts is the next step.
- Move commands/download.rs to commands/download/mod.rs.
- Extract pin/unpin/is_pinned into download/pinning.rs.
- Extract smart-cache stats/config + album recommendation commands into
download/smart_cache.rs.
- Re-exported via pub use so command names stay at commands::download::*;
invoke_handler unchanged, all tests pass.
