- HELLO WORLD,we’re VERY excited we’ve just released a build with the first APIs for Tabbles (and Tabbles’ sister application, Confidential).UPDATE:we have just uploaded a beta of Tabbles that has the API code built in, you can download it here. It’s not fully tested and misses a coupe of secondary features, but it should be solid enough for most users.The good stuff:The API documentation and our test plugin source code:You can get the compiled Plugin here (with instruction on how to run it:About Running Confidential:1) We recommend you back your Tabbles database (just in case), from Files > Tabbles’ Database > Export database to XML3) You’ll need to manually uninstall Tabbles (we’re figuring out a solution for that)4) About the Database:
- If you pick the “Local” option, be aware that Confidential will use a different database as Tabbles, so you’d find yourself with an empty db. We’d recommend you just press “GO” and then import your Tabbles xml database into it. This way you’ll also have a sandbox to play with while developing your plugin.
- If you want to use your Tabbles localdb database, you can do that too from the “LAN” tab. You’ll need to upgrade your database first: in Confidential click on the “LAN” tab, select “Windows Authentication” and in the “server address” field, write “(localdb)\TabblesLocalDb4” and in “database name” write “tabbles4”.
- If you have a LAN database and want to upgrade it, just punch in the login info (but we still recommend you create a new one).
Note: Tabbles does currently save its config data in Documents\Tabbles\Config, while Confidential saves it into %appdata%\Confidential\Config – we’re also moving Tabbles config folder soon.For any question, please post it here 🙂 Hi Andrea 😉
Sorry for my “not too clean English”, maybe I could explain my thoughs better sometimes :D… but is an abstract topic.
That people “willing to implement”, maybe would be useful and interesting, speak with them… keep in touch.
I have knowledge about functional programming, OOP.
Thank you, for fast response
PD: The spanish translation is almost cooked ;), today or tomorrow I post the resx file
Hello @TarekJor & Co.,
A couple ideas I’ve been playing with, based on imageboards like Danbooru/Moebooru (https://github.com/r888888888/danbooru). There’s a test instance running at http://testbooru.donmai.us/ (CAUTION: may be NSFW depending on what’s posted there).
Implications:
When entering a particular tag, a second tag is also added to the tagged resource.
For example, you can setup “shirt” -> “clothing”. Tagging anything with “shirt” will also add the “clothing” tag.
I believe nested tags already do something like this, but I could not figure out how to make it work like I wanted.
Aliases:
Tags that get replaced with other tags, e.g.
“Gordon Sumner” -> “Sting”.
“gray” -> “grey”
Both aliases and implications in Danbooru are apparently a performance hit, especially if there’s a lot of them – they run the processing as a background job or on adding an image/video. I’m not sure what this means for something like Tabbles or if this can be done with a plugin. I mean to try, however. 🙂
It’s not a substitute for a controlled vocabulary, but these may be one way to implement something like it. The ability to disable adding new tags in the tagging interface would also help enforce a controlled vocabulary (it may already do this with permissions and multiuser and such, but I’ve only ever explored Tabbles as a solo user)
Hashing: Might be useful to identify duplicate files – for example Danbooru uses this technique for uploaded media and it’s storage – files are stored with an MD5 hash of the content rather than the original filename.
