v0.17.1 - Scrolling fixes

Fixed

• Lots of scrolling glitches with just a few photos in collection due to the height not being fully tested
• Max scrolling position not being always correctly handled
• The scrolling position sometimes changing 2s after scrolling (due to persistent scrolling glitches)
• Being able to scroll out of bounds

What's Changed

• Fix scroll bugs with small collections by @SmilyOrg in #126

Full Changelog: v0.17.0...v0.17.1

v0.17.0 - Photo details, dark mode, scrollbar, open in album

New

• Photo details view with a few basic details, like date, tags (if enabled),
  photo name & dimensions, and location.
  

• Dark mode: By default, it uses the system preference, but it's possible to
  switch in the display settings.
  

• Custom scrollbar: Inspired by other galleries, it shows years/months/days
  and has better support for longer galleries with "precision mode".
  

• Open Image in Album context menu entry. This is useful to open an image in
  album/time-based context from e.g. a search or map view.
  

Changed

• Scroll persistence: The scrollable layouts (album, timeline, highlights,
  flex) now persist the scroll position via a file-based anchor in the URL (f
  parameter). Refreshing or sharing the URL within a long album should therefore
  retain the viewed position. This supports the "Open Image in Album" feature by
  scrolling it into view on page load.
• Settings menu: The settings (cog wheel) now close on selection.
• PWA installation: Installing the website as a Progressive Web App (PWA)
  should look nicer now.

Fixed

• Search improvements: Addressed issues with the search bar and input
  behavior to ensure smoother scrolling and more predictable focus handling.
• Scene reload: Do not reload the scene on height change for album/timeline
  as it doesn't affect the display.

v0.16.0 - Batch edit tags and faster collections

Added

• Add skip_collection_counts config option for faster startup in some cases
• Batch edit tags by selecting multiple photos with Ctrl/Cmd and clicking "#"
• Loading very large collections (100K .. 10M+ files) now works

Changed

• Optimized initial loading of large collections
• Finally fixed "determinant of affine transformation matrix is zero" error
• Fixed unit in loading spinner
• Fixed the file counter not being updated while rescan was underway
• Search or other scenes using tags auto-update when tags are added or removed
• Search is now enabled even if AI is not enabled (e.g. for tag search)
• Fixed a bug where collections with dirs that are a prefix of other dirs would
  in some cases erroneously also list files in these other dirs (e.g. /vacation
  would include /vacation2 or /vacation-eu)

Breaking changes

• There is a hard limit of 50000 source directories per loaded view for now.
  Please let me know if you encounter this limit as it can be increased.

v0.15.0 - Polished interaction with more zoomy bits

• Fix dates not showing while scrolling on mobile
• Selection works on map view now (but it's still useless)
• A bunch of map fixes

v0.14.1

Docker images are now multiarch - x64 and arm.

Good for cheaper cloud servers, maybe also M1/M2/M3 Macs (left me know!)

Changelog

• 6db07c9 Build for x64 & arm
• c85cc0e Build for x64 & arm (#89)

v0.14.0 - Logs, autoreload, errors, fixes

• Logs: timestamp is not shown anymore as I didn't find it useful (logging systems usually provide their own). Let me know if it was useful to you. All exposed urls are now shown on startup, so it's more obvious how to access it.

  app running (api under /api)
    local    http://127.0.0.1:8080
    network  http://172.22.0.27:8080
  

• Loading & errors: there are more loading indicators, especially for loading collections, so that it doesn't just show a white screen. If the connection to the server drops, there is also a more obvious error message and status shown. Same if you run it without any collections configured. Fixes #84.
  
  

• Autoreload: the configuration should be automatically reloaded on yaml file change, so restarting is not required anymore. The same applies to collections with expand_subdirs: true, if you change the dirs the server is automatically reloaded.

• Rescan applies faster: previously the view was sometimes cached "too much" leading to it showing the same thing, even after a rescan and page reload. Switching back to the photos or refreshing the page should now always show the up to date view, resolving point 1 in #81 from the scanning point of view.

• Cleaner exit: if you Ctrl+C or otherwise "soft close" (SIGTERM) the app, it should close the database cleanly, so -shm and -wal files are not left laying around anymore. They are still left if you forcibly close the app (SIGKILL) as that cannot be handled.

• Layout fixes: timeline view shouldn't overlap with the app bar on top anymore. Small collections should now be top-left aligned and not centered. The "Wall" layout was bugged and should now work as expected again.

• Add Playwright e2e tests: this should make it easier to make sure that some of the features above keep working as expected in the future. Still a bit of a proof of concept though.

• File reorganization: the UI, docs, and e2e tests are now there as three independent nodejs projects so that you don't have to install all of them to work on just one.

See #85

v0.13.0 - Embedded docs MVP

It's basically the same as the README right now, but more room for growth.

Eventually this should be hosted on https://photofield.dev as the main documentation source with the README being trimmed down to the basics.

What's Changed

• Add docs website by @SmilyOrg in #78
