you know what fuck reinventing the wheel i think i will just use hydrus instead of making my own booru

@lapin welcome brother, but don't give up on what can be a fun project

@Halo some questions tho:

does it copy the files that i uploaded?
is there a note feature just like in dan/gelbooru where you can embed translations and shit?

Follow

@lapin @Halo This doesn't have them either but it has nicer descriptions where you can fit translations. It's more featureful in general. Actually would let you do something like: (small breasts || flat chest) && nipples
github.com/derpibooru/philomen

· · Web · 3 · 1 · 1

@wowaname @Halo @lapin And I don't like being unable to anything more complex than include or exclude
:tanya_really:

@applejack @Halo @lapin you can do that without the "tag one, tag two" syntax because they allow whitespace in tags
@applejack @Halo @lapin wait it always had not, what am i thinking of then, just or maybe

@applejack @Halo thanks but like danbooru, this is obviously meant to be deployed on the web instead of locally. i don’t even wanna imagine installing docker on my current machine (windows)

and again, note embedding would have been more ideal

>(small breasts || flat chest) && nipples that’s such a good feature tho fuck

@lapin @Halo I'm pretty sure you can just do docker stuff inside of cygwin or something

@applejack @Halo of course, but it’s not as straightforward as doing it on linux (obviously)

@lapin @applejack
uh you can also search in ors actually... so... yeah...
@lapin @applejack
did i miss something... does that add something to your search?
@Halo @lapin @applejack (Artist) (Series) etc are things you can add in Gelbooru for example. Name_(Artist)
@Immahnoob @applejack @lapin
yeah you can do that, you can add whatever tags you want. or the ones the internet does for you, but what does the parenthesis add to your search.
@Halo @applejack @lapin So you can differentiate between characters, artists and series that might have similar names. Colored tags are also good.
@Immahnoob @applejack @lapin of course you can. go read the documentation for hydrus if you want to know :asui_what:
@Halo @lapin @applejack If A is false and C is true, in the first case, the result is true, in the latter, the result is false.
@Zerglingman @applejack @lapin

so... why... why not just leave out whichever one you don't wanna see :vajra_derp:
@Halo @lapin @applejack Because maybe I specifically only want to see pubic hair on females when they're having sex, otherwise, only on males. Or something, I don't think that specifically addresses it, the point is that the possibility for an arbitrarily complex search is good, as long as it doesn't interfere with basic/common patterns.
@Zerglingman @applejack @lapin
oh alright now it makes sense :hinata_acid:
thank you for dealing with my retardation :cat_blush:

@Halo @Zerglingman @applejack

let’s say i want to search for (astolfo OR anal) AND trap

it will return results that have astolfo trap AND anal trap

but if there were no parentheses: e.g. astolfo OR anal AND trap

it will instead give me either astolfo or anal trap posts

@lapin @applejack @Halo Your example is better IMO. Though a more likely search with those would be (astolfo OR trap) AND anal - ie. traps getting dicked, but Astolfo is always ok even when it's girl Astolfo or bara Astolfo.
@applejack @Halo @lapin Aside, you could solve that case by rewriting it as anal and trap or astolfo.
And then you decide that it doesn't have to be sex, toys are ok too, and for whatever reason that's not tagged as anal, but, say, anal_insertion, and now you can't solve it without parens.
@lapin @Zerglingman @applejack
examples are much more useful than theory (or whatever you wanna call it) it just cleared it up more.

@Halo @Zerglingman @applejack so i’m guessing hydrus can’t do that?

not that i mind that much honestly

@lapin @Zerglingman @applejack
uh. maybe?
the or searches might act like that by default, i've never had a reason to use them :shrug:
the only tags I even use are the character tags :cirno_laugh: (and white tights)
@Halo @applejack @lapin Man of culture.

Thing is, without being able to specify priority via parens, you'll never be able to make arbitrarily complex searches. Regardless of whether AND or OR is evaluated first. If you do left-to-right evaluation... Maybe? But much better to just have priority and parens to modify it.
@Zerglingman @applejack @lapin
well it's opensource, go add it :cat_blush:
assuming it isn't already a thing i missed...

Then again, I'm not a very complex man and the chance I missed it is very high.
I only really open hydrus, type a random tag, character, or artist, take 4 pics and then post them.

any pics I really like I just tag as 'favorite' for quick posting. that's about the extent of my searching
