feat: Search the gallery, and choose its order - #79
Merged
Conversation
The gallery showed whatever order the filesystem returned, which is neither alphabetical nor chronological, and it showed all of it. Finding one image among a few hundred meant scrolling and hoping. The listing is now newest first by default, and takes ?q= to filter by name and ?sort=oldest|name to change the order. The response is still a plain list of filenames, so nothing that consumes it has to change. Ordering uses the database's created_at where a row exists and the file's own mtime otherwise, so images that predate the database still land somewhere sensible instead of at an arbitrary position. The search box is debounced by 250ms: typing eight characters queries once, not eight times. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
