- GC: the expiry warning marks each file conditionally on the expiry it saw, one commit each (a file
deleted meanwhile no longer fails the run; one re-timed keeps its fresh expiry unwarned); eviction
counts the disk again when a candidate was freed meanwhile, so it never evicts for space already free.
- Folders: a retention change locks the folder and its files, and a finishing file reads the retention
under a share lock, so neither misses the other; a folder delete locks the files it takes home (a
file moved out meanwhile stays put, one deleted meanwhile no longer fails the delete).
- Upload: the folder is checked before the probe and held only once the job names it.
- Dedup enqueue locks the cached asset, so a release meanwhile yields a fresh one instead of a 500.
- Mount check reads the kernel's mount table instead of comparing devices (the vfs storage driver gave
a mounted volume the device of /), and only inside a container; the API also logs a fresh, empty
volume in the library's place.
- Compose files fall back to DOWNLOAD_HOST_PATH; the upgrade notes cover the from-source pull.
- Folder routes call owned_or_404 directly.
- The queue keeps a done job by when it became done (ready_at), not by its last write: renaming,
keeping or moving an old file, or the GC's expiry warning, no longer brings it back as just finished.
- GC expiry and eviction re-read each file under the asset→job locks the user routes take, and commit
one file at a time: a delete, a re-download or a keep made while the GC runs is honoured, never a
second release that frees a file another user still holds.
- A file records the origin it was placed under (download_jobs.source_key, migration 0105): an edit
whose parent expired still goes back to its folder, not to Uploads.
- A folder a file is being put in is held (FOR SHARE) until it lands; a delete of it waits and takes
that file home too, instead of failing on the foreign key.
- The hash route reads at most two files at once (429 past that) and holds no connection meanwhile.
- 0104's backfill dates old files by their request date only: no notice prod wrote names its job.
- The old DOWNLOAD_ROOT still finds the files; a files root that is not a mounted volume stops the
worker and is logged by the API; the volume-copy recipe looks the project-prefixed names up.
- Stale comments about the /downloads mount and the Downloads page.
A download that failed for days and then went through sat days down the library, under its
request date, and read as missing. A job now records when it became done (`ready_at`), stamped
where the expiry already is (`folders.stamp_done`, `finalize_if_running`) and on an insert that is
already done; a check constraint holds every path to done to it. The library sorts and dates its
"Added" by it; the queue keeps the request order.
The migration dates a file from before by its "ready to watch" notice where the inbox still holds
one, else by its request date, where it already sat.
- Files toolbar link box (paste button, Enter); a lone http(s) link pasted onto any page opens the one
app-wide download dialog, which now names the link; the palette's "Download from a link…" focuses
the box on its history entry.
- The download tray, bottom right on every page: what waits, runs, is paused or failed (reason +
Retry, the queue's right-click / "…" menu), and what finished in this tab as "Done · Open" until
closed; folds to a pill (per-account pref); closed, it stays shut — across a reload — until the
work changes or something finishes. Back to top steps up over it, the page end keeps clear.
- A finish is announced once: "Downloaded: …", whether a phone plays it, Copy link + Open (toasts
and notices may carry a second action).
- The inbox's ready notice opens the file in its folder: download_done carries job_id + folder_id.
- GET /api/downloads is the queue only (in flight, failed, finished in the last 10 minutes), with
each row's source key.
Files is the one library: every done file, the ones shared with me, or one
folder's, picked in a side rail (sources, own folders, the storage meter) and
mirrored to ?folder=. One table with every kind of value in its own column;
Copy link, Share and Save in sight, every action on a right click: play,
cut, rename in the row, move to an own folder or back home, keep, details,
re-download, delete.
The Downloads page keeps only the queue until the tray replaces it. The old
/api/downloads library routes are gone: list shared, upload, the details
PATCH, delete, the file and the usage now live under /api/files, and a
listed file says which source it came from. The job's "expired" flag is gone
with the state it described.
/api/files is the library's home: list a user's done files (by folder, searched, sorted, or the
ones shared with them), rename / move / keep / delete a file, make, rename and delete own folders
(a deleted folder's files go back to their source folders), and set how long any folder keeps a
file — done files shift by the difference, never closer than the GC's warning window.
An upload can name its folder (an own folder or Uploads), checked before the body is read and again
before the file lands; it is hashed while it streams, and any file can be hashed on first ask. The
download says the hash (Repr-Digest) once it is known; a new file at an asset's path forgets it.
Uploads, deletes, keeps, moves and folder changes are audited (ids only). The fileless "expired"
rows of the old retention are deleted by migration 0103: an expired file now leaves the library.
The shared route helpers moved to routes/files.py; the old /api/downloads library routes delegate
to the new ones until the client moves over.
