For PhotoStructure for Desktops and PhotoStructure for Node, set the environment variable, PS_LIBRARY, to a temporary directory (like /tmp/pstest or C:\TEMP\PSTEST) before you launch the alpha build. Here are instructions for how to do this on every platform..
For PhotoStructure for Docker users, change the /ps/library bind mount to a temp directory.
For PhotoStructure for Node: git checkout alpha.
To return to the stable release, git stash -u ; git checkout main
For PhotoStructure for Docker: change the image to photostructure/server:alpha. Remember to docker-compose pull or docker pull before restarting the container!
I’ll make a “version post” (like this one for version 1.0) before the stable release of v2.0.
Version 2.0 adds a handful of new features including the highest-voted-for feature which lets you like, archive, remove, and delete assets in your library, along with several handfuls of bug fixes and more minor features.
Not sure if this is intended or not, but there is no more progress bar on top of the screen on an initial scan. I did see a toast to tell me that a scan was starting (forgot the exact wording) but then nothing. The only reason I know it’s still scanning is from the “about photostructure” page
I just noticed that I’m missing the scroll bar on the homepage. It actually appears if I switch to fullscreen, but then disappears when I go back to normal.
I am running Photostructure on docker on unraid. It appears that Photostructure is throwing the error toast when I do a left rotate on HEIC images from and iPhone. When I do a right rotate, the error toast doesn’t show but the rotation also doesn’t stick and it snaps back to the original rotation. Also, on the HEIC images when I try to do a rotate and it makes an attempt, it stretches the image out so that the aspect ratio is wrong. Other image types don’t seem to have this problem.
@tkohhh I couldn’t reproduce that on a new windows 10 VM running Firefox v93.0. I wonder if it’s an add-on? (my dev browser runs ublock origin, so that’s not it).
If you want to share screen I can take a look at your convenience.
It seems to be working fine now… perhaps it was a temporary glitch. It’s also possible Firefox updated somewhere between then and now. In any case, all is well!
