Round 2 of benchmark-gated optimizations (benches/ROUND2.md; every change
gated by a before/after in examples/bench_round2.rs — an AFTER that did
not beat its BEFORE was to be rolled back; none needed it):
- Range requests (REST/DAV/shares) answered from the moka content cache
for sub-10MB files: PG resolve + open/seek/read -> Bytes::slice.
256KiB seeks: 1,730/s -> 3.7M/s (p50 552us -> 0.15us).
- Streaming folder/share ZIPs via tokio duplex: TTFB no longer scales
with archive size (326ms -> 0.4ms on 192MiB corpus; total also faster).
Content-Length dropped (size unknown up front).
- NC chunked-upload per-PUT gate: O(k) directory scan+stat -> in-RAM
per-session counter (lazy rebuild on cold start). 1,000-chunk upload
gate cost: 33.1s -> 0.09s cumulative.
- Delta download + commit-verify now use the CDC path's
buffered(read_prefetch) read-ahead: 64-chunk drain at 5ms open
latency 440ms -> 51ms; order preserved.
- CDC ingest settles batches on a spawned task (depth-1 pipeline) so
the source stream keeps flowing during PG pin + backend writes;
rollback ledger shared + lock-serialized so compensation stays exact
on cancellation. 512MiB paced ingest: 60-69 -> 74-75 MB/s.
OXICLOUD_INGEST_OVERLAP=0 restores inline settling (ops/bench hatch).
- Frontend: instant-upload BLAKE3 hashing moved off the main thread to
a bounded Web Worker pool (File handles by reference); vitest gate
asserts the pool beats sequential (first gate draft posting buffers
was 2.6x slower and was rewritten — copies dominated).
Validation: cargo fmt + clippy -D warnings clean; 514 unit + 544
integration tests green; 270 frontend tests green.

- quota per drive
- add 2 internal API endpoints to test purpose
disabled by default, enable it via `OXICLOUD_ENABLE_ADMIN_INTERNAL_ENDPOINTS=true`
this enable:
/api/admin/internal/trigger-sweep
to sweep the trash and recalculated quota
/api/admin/internal/trigger-gc
to garbage orphan blobs
use full for end to end tests and validate lifecycles
OptimizedFileContent::Mmap was constructed nowhere — the documented "Tier 2:
memory-mapped I/O (10-100 MB)" path was never wired, so optimized_inner only
ever returns Bytes (<10 MB) or Stream (>=10 MB). The variant survived only as
an enum case plus two dead match arms in the file and share download handlers.
Remove the variant and its arms, and fix the now-misleading retrieval-service
tier docs (everything >=10 MB streams via CDC chunk reassembly with the
backend read-ahead; there is no mmap tier). Behaviour is unchanged — the
deleted arms were unreachable.

Videos now get a thumbnail generated eagerly server-side on upload, through
the same WebP/blob-hash pipeline as photos — instead of the old browser path
that only ran when the Photos grid first rendered a video tile, re-downloaded
the whole video to seek a frame, and PUT 3 JPEGs back (and produced nothing at
all for HEVC/.mov, which a browser <video> cannot decode).
- New VideoFramePort (application) + FfmpegVideoFrameService / NoopVideoFrameService
(infrastructure): shell out to the system ffmpeg (no compile-time libav dep),
extract one representative frame as PNG, bounded by its own semaphore + a
per-process timeout + kill_on_drop. Noop when ffmpeg is absent/disabled, so
videos degrade gracefully to no thumbnail.
- ThumbnailRefreshHook.on_file_created routes video/* to
generate_video_thumbnails_background: stream the (decrypted, reassembled) blob
to a size- and time-bounded temp file on the data volume, extract a frame, and
reuse the shared render_and_persist_all_webp helper — so video thumbnails are
WebP, blob-hash keyed (dedup'd) and content-negotiated, exactly like photos.
- GET thumbnail serves the video's WebP to every client (byte-sniffed
Content-Type); a genuine miss returns 204.
- Config: OXICLOUD_ENABLE_VIDEO_THUMBNAILS (default true, needs ffmpeg detected
at startup) + OXICLOUD_FFMPEG_PATH / _CONCURRENCY / _TIMEOUT_SECS / _MAX_MB.
- Dockerfile installs ffmpeg in the runtime image.
- Frontend: drop the client-side generateVideoThumb/frameFromVideo re-download
path; the server is now the source of truth.
Benchmark (examples/bench_video_thumbnails.rs, needs ffmpeg): 4/4 codecs incl.
HEVC/.mov produce a thumbnail server-side (was 0% for HEVC); ~50-70 ms/frame in
the background; ~3.9 KB preview WebP; up to ~23x less per-first-view transfer on
the test corpus (far more on real multi-MB clips). Methodology in
benches/VIDEO-THUMB.md.
Hardening from an adversarial review: video render holds the decode_semaphore
like the image path; the ffmpeg scale filter bounds both dimensions; the blob
stream has a timeout; the temp file lives on the data volume; the size cap uses
saturating_mul.

Thumbnails are now generated eagerly as lossy WebP (the primary codec) and
served to clients that advertise `Accept: image/webp`; JPEG is kept as a lazy
fallback for older clients and NextCloud, generated on first request and then
cached like WebP.
- ThumbnailFormat{Webp,Jpeg} enum threaded through encode/render/generate, the
on-disk path ({hash}.webp / {hash}.jpg), the moka cache key
(file_id, size, format), and cleanup (both formats removed).
- file_handler: parse Accept -> format, format-keyed ETag, `Vary: Accept` on
every response (incl. 304) so shared caches never serve the wrong codec;
Content-Type is byte-sniffed (infer) so it always matches the bytes.
- preview_handler (NextCloud) pins JPEG.
- webp = "0.3" (vendored libwebp via cc, no system dependency).
WEBP_QUALITY=82, chosen via a quality sweep (bench Table E1): SSIM within
~0.005 of JPEG q80 (imperceptible at thumbnail scale) for ~62% fewer bytes. On
the photo-realistic bench corpus the full set (3 sizes x 3 photos) drops 65.6%
(213->73 KB); real photos with edges/text land nearer ~25-40%. Encode is +5ms,
paid once in the eager background generator (off the request path).
The bench corpus is now photo-realistic (per-channel sums of low-frequency
sinusoids) instead of white noise, which had distorted codec byte ratios.
Methodology + numbers in benches/WEBP.md.

- permit reuse of blob where file is trashed (by-hash and chunked)
- add hurl test on /api/files/by-hash
- add anti enumeration of blob (404 is always blob_not_owned_by_caller)
Backend — Photos timeline now groups by real capture date instead of upload time. New MediaMetadataService (FileLifecycleHook) extracts EXIF DateTimeOriginal from images and container creation_time from videos (mov/mp4/mkv) via nom-exif, timezone-correct (OffsetTimeOriginal), persisting captured_at so the existing media_sort_date trigger takes over. Adds POST /admin/photos/metadata/reextract to backfill existing media. Falls back to upload date when no embedded date exists.
Frontend — premium grid cards: combined metadata line (relative date · size, owner avatar when shared), custom selection checkbox with a clear checked state, uniform full-width 4:3 thumbnail tiles independent of filename length, centered file-type icons, and a hit-test fix so checkbox/star/kebab clicks reach the controls (the decorative thumbnail no longer captures pointer events). Notification messages internationalised across all 16 locales. Broader polish: design tokens, a11y/focus-visible states, brand + PWA assets.
Chore — bump semver-compatible dependencies (cargo upgrade); add nom-exif 3.6.1.

Phase 0 of the delta-sync plan. Re-uploading a file the user already has
(another device, a restore, a duplicate) used to transfer every byte just
for the server to discard them as a dedup hit. The frontend now computes
the file's BLAKE3 locally and, on a hit, registers the file with a single
~150-byte metadata call.
Server — POST /api/files/by-hash:
- All checks live in the application service per the AuthZ rule:
Create permission on the target folder via the authorization engine,
hash ownership via the existing user-scoped query (a non-owned hash
returns 404 — same shape as "no such blob" — and emits an
instant_upload.rejected audit event), quota on the logical size.
- On success: one ref_count bump + the existing save_file_with_blob row
registration (compensation included); is_new_blob=false so lifecycle
hooks skip thumbnail regeneration. ~10 ms warm.
- The storage-usage service is now built before the application services
and injected, instead of only living on AppState.
Client — WASM BLAKE3 + worker:
- wasm/oxicloud-hash: the exact same blake3 crate the server uses,
compiled with WASM SIMD128 (~660 MB/s measured) so browser hashes match
server content addresses bit for bit. Built by scripts/build-wasm.sh;
the artifacts (45 KB wasm + 8 KB glue) are vendored like pdf.js — no
npm dependencies, no wasm toolchain needed for regular builds.
- static/js/workers/hashWorker.js streams the File in 8 MiB slices off
the main thread (constant RAM at any file size).
- features/files/instantUpload.js orchestrates: threshold (8 MiB — below
it the round-trips cost more than the bytes), user-scoped
/api/dedup/check, by-hash registration, and silent fallback to the
normal byte upload on any miss, race or unsupported environment.
Wired into both uploadFiles and uploadFolderEntries.
- biome.json vendors exclusion fixed to cover nested directories
(previous vendors were .mjs and never matched the *.js include).
Verified end-to-end against PostgreSQL 16: node-driven WASM hash equals
the server's content_hash for a 20 MB file; by-hash returns 201 in ~10 ms
warm with a 151-byte request (vs 20,971,873 bytes for the byte upload);
the copy downloads byte-identical and the manifest ref_count goes 1→2;
a second user probing the same hash gets exists:false and 404 plus the
audit line; duplicate name → 409, malformed hash → 400; worker and wasm
are served with correct MIME (application/wasm).

Every upload surface previously wrote each byte to disk twice: the HTTP
body was spooled to a temp file (or assembled from chunk parts), then
mmap-re-read for FastCDC analysis, and finally the new chunks were
written to the blob backend. CDC could not start until the last byte
arrived, so large uploads paid receive + reread + rewrite latency.
The dedup engine now chunks, hashes and settles the stream WHILE it
arrives (fastcdc AsyncStreamCDC + incremental BLAKE3):
- Each batch of distinct chunks is pinned-or-classified by ONE
`UPDATE … RETURNING` (no check-then-bump TOCTOU; pinned chunks can't
be reclaimed mid-upload), and only chunks the store doesn't have are
written — a full dedup hit performs zero content writes.
- Durability before visibility is preserved: one batched fsync sweep,
then one batched INSERT, then the manifest. Identical concurrent
uploads are resolved at the manifest INSERT via ON CONFLICT (the
loser releases its references and becomes a dedup hit).
- A drop guard rolls back pins and surfaces written-but-unregistered
chunks to GC if the request future is cancelled mid-stream.
- MIME sniffing now peeks the first bytes in-flight; client-requested
MD5/SHA-256 checksums are computed by a stream tee — the post-upload
re-read of the assembled file is gone.
All surfaces converge on the new interfaces::upload_ingest helper:
REST multipart, WebDAV PUT, NextCloud PUT, WOPI PutFile, the dedup
endpoint, and both chunked-upload completions (which now stream their
ordered parts straight into the store instead of writing an assembled
file — chunk parts persist until finalize, so completion is genuinely
retryable). The legacy blob re-chunk migration streams from the
backend with no spool file either.
Legacy removed: store_from_file + mmap CDC analysers + temp-path
plumbing through every port (pre_computed_hash, save_file_from_temp,
update_file_content_from_temp), upload_spool + assembled-file
assembly in both chunked services, create_file/update_file byte-slice
variants (no callers), common::temp, the OXICLOUD_UPLOAD_TMPDIR
config, and the memmap2 dependency.
Verified end-to-end against PostgreSQL 16: 8 MB upload (26 chunks),
identical re-upload (dedup hit, zero writes), 3-byte edit re-upload
(26 chunks, 1 written), byte-identical downloads, Range across chunk
boundaries, concurrent identical-upload race (manifest ref 2), and
trash-empty reclaiming exactly the unshared chunk while the shared 25
survive for the edited file. The empty/sub-8KB multipart path found a
post-EOF re-poll panic in the MIME peek (fixed with fuse + regression
test).

Request-path thumbnail generation (REST get_thumbnail and NC preview)
read the full source blob into RAM and decoded it with no concurrency
bound — a first-view gallery of K images stacked K full-size buffers
and K parallel decodes on the blocking pool. The background hook had
the inverse ordering problem: it read the blob eagerly and only then
queued on the decode semaphore, so N concurrent uploads held N
originals in memory while waiting.
All three paths now acquire the decode semaphore first and read the
blob under the permit, capping peak RAM at permits x image size:
- new ThumbnailService::get_thumbnail_from_blob defers the blob read
into the moka init closure (cache and disk hits never touch the
blob); both handlers use it and no longer pre-read.
- get_thumbnail_from_bytes (direct-bytes variant) now also takes a
permit before decoding; shared generate_and_persist core keeps the
two entrypoints duplicate-free.
- generate_all_sizes_background_from_blob (renamed from _from_bytes)
checks blob existence and disk-dedup state, then acquires the
permit, then reads; the redundant pre-read spawn wrapper in
ThumbnailRefreshHook is gone.

Two DAV-surface fixes that replicate patterns the codebase already had:
NC PROPFIND (folder case) previously loaded EVERY child via unbounded
list_files/list_folders and serialized the entire multistatus into one
Vec (~2 KB per entry — a 50k-file folder meant ~100 MB of buffer per
request, repeated constantly by sync clients). It now mirrors the native
WebDAV handler's streaming builder: children are fetched in pages of
PROPFIND_BATCH_SIZE (500), each page's favorites and oc:fileids are
resolved with two batch queries, and the XML is yielded chunk by chunk —
memory stays O(batch) and the first byte flows immediately. The
single-file PROPFIND keeps a small buffered variant; the multistatus
opening tag is factored into a shared helper so the namespace set cannot
diverge.
WebDAV GET (native and NC) ignored the Range header and never compared
the ETag it emitted, so mount-style clients (rclone, davfs2, Finder)
re-transferred whole files on every seek, resume, or revalidation. New
shared `interfaces::range_requests` helpers — same semantics as the REST
download endpoint, which now reuses the 304 helper too — give both GETs
If-None-Match → 304, Range → 206/416, and Accept-Ranges advertising.

* make more coherent lifecycles
* remove specific implementation on different handlers (they do not need to know existence of ThumbnailSerice nor AudioMetadataService)
* reduce risk of orphean objects
* ensure additional services are correctly wired (ex: Thumbnail generation was not covering all upload cases)
* more details on docs/architecture/file-and-blob-lifecycle.md :
```rust
// application/ports/file_lifecycle.rs
pub trait FileLifecycleHook {
fn on_file_created(file_id, blob_hash, content_type, is_new_blob);
fn on_file_updated(file_id, blob_hash, content_type);
fn on_file_copied(file_id, blob_hash, content_type, source_id)
fn on_file_deleted(file_id);
}
// application/ports/blob_lifecycle.rs
pub trait BlobLifecycleHook {
fn on_blob_created(blob_hash, content_type);
fn on_blob_deleted(blob_hash);
}
```
Five new public endpoints under /api/s/{token}/...:
GET /contents
GET /contents/{folder_id}
GET /file/{file_id}
GET /zip
GET /zip/{folder_id}
All honour the unlock cookie from /verify, so password-protected
folder shares work end-to-end.
Folder/file IDs are validated against the share subtree via a single
ltree containment query (O(log N) on the existing GiST index).
Out-of-scope IDs return 404.
download_shared_file refactored to a Range/304/206/416-aware
serve_share_file helper, shared with the new /file/{file_id}
endpoint. content_disposition extracted from FileHandler so RFC 5987
formatting is identical across auth and share download paths.
Thumbnails are now keyed by blob_hash on disk so identical files share
a single set of thumbnails (icon/preview/large). For 4000 duplicate
files with the same content, this reduces thumbnail storage from 12,000
files to just 3.
Changes:
- get_thumbnail_path() keys by blob_hash instead of file_id
- get_thumbnail(), get_cached_thumbnail(), generate_all_sizes_background()
accept blob_hash parameter for disk dedup
- generate_all_sizes_background() fast path: if blob-hash thumbnails
already exist on disk, skip image processing entirely and just
populate moka cache for the new file_id
- delete_thumbnails() only invalidates moka cache (shared disk
thumbnails must not be deleted when one file is removed)
- delete_blob_thumbnails() added for GC; garbage_collect() now cleans
up orphaned thumbnail files alongside blob files
- External thumbnails (video frames) stored as ext-{file_id}.jpg
since they are client-generated and not dedup-able
- ThumbnailPort trait updated with blob_hash parameters
- All handler call sites updated (file_handler, preview_handler)
- Tests updated for new signatures
- Add utoipa v5 dependency with ToSchema derives on all REST API DTOs
- Annotate free-function handlers with #[utoipa::path] (trash, share, favorites, recent)
- Create ApiDoc struct with OpenApi derive registering 37 schemas across 7 tags
- Add generate-openapi binary outputting resources/gen/openapi.json
- Serve OpenAPI spec at GET /api/openapi.json (public, no auth)
- Add justfile with common dev commands (build, test, lint, check, openapi, db)
Fix all clippy lints (collapsible if, clone on Copy, needless borrow,
redundant bindings, unused params) and apply rustfmt across the codebase.
Update test mocks to match Uuid-based trait signatures.

Replace all 3 ImageFormat::WebP encode sites with JpegEncoder q=80.
Update fast-path to detect JPEG SOI instead of RIFF/WEBP magic.
Change file extension .webp -> .jpg, Content-Type headers, and
browser toBlob. Remove unused ImageFormat import and stale comments.
The webp feature stays for DECODING uploaded WebP images.
Solution A — Cache-first path:
- get_thumbnail now tries moka (RAM) → disk BEFORE any DB query
- Ownership was verified at creation time; UUIDv4 prevents enumeration
- 146-photo timeline: 0 SQL queries instead of 146 per page load
Solution C — ETag / If-None-Match short-circuit:
- Deterministic ETag 'thumb-{id}-{size}' on every response
- If browser sends matching If-None-Match → 304 with zero I/O
- Cache-Control: immutable prevents even conditional requests
Additional improvements:
- Remove moka TTL (was 600s); thumbnails are immutable, weight-only eviction
- generate_all_sizes_background populates moka after disk write;
first GET after upload served from RAM with zero disk I/O
- DB path only taken on cache miss for images needing generation
Backend:
- 204 response: add Cache-Control: no-store so browser never caches
'no thumbnail yet' — next GET after PUT upload gets the WebP
Frontend:
- _videoThumbCache (Map): persists fileId → URL across re-renders,
so switching tabs reuses cached URLs instantly (no re-decode)
- Render: videos with cached URL skip the 204/error/decode cycle
- After PUT succeeds: swap blob URL → server ?v=1 URL so blob is GC'd
- Concurrency throttle: max 3 simultaneous video decodes to avoid
overwhelming network + CPU when gallery has many videos
- Decode queue: pending videos processed as slots free up
Backend:
- get_thumbnail: for non-images, serve cached thumb or 204 (not 400)
- store_external_thumbnail: validate + re-encode to WebP + persist
- get_cached_thumbnail: memory → disk lookup without generation
- PUT /api/files/{id}/thumbnail/{size} endpoint for client uploads
- ThumbnailPort trait: add get_cached_thumbnail + store_external_thumbnail
Frontend (photos.js):
- On <img> error for video tiles, use <video> + <canvas> to extract
a frame at 25% duration using browser's native codec
- Show frame immediately via blob URL
- Fire-and-forget PUT to server for permanent caching
- Subsequent visits serve cached WebP instantly (no re-extraction)
Zero server-side dependencies — CPU distributed across clients.
upload_file_inner now returns (FileDto, blob_hash) tuple, propagating
the BLAKE3 hash computed during the hash-on-write spool directly to
upload_file_with_thumbnails. This removes the unnecessary
get_blob_hash() SQL query that was fetching a value already in memory.
Saves ~0.5-2ms + 1 PG pool connection per image upload.
The cached-user-data path in checkAuthentication() fired resolveHomeFolder()
and loadFiles() concurrently with refreshUserData() using non-blocking .then()
chains. When the session cookie was expired, the folder/file API calls received
401 errors before the session could be refreshed. Now awaits session validation
before loading files.

Extract EXIF orientation, GPS coordinates, camera info, and timestamps
from uploaded images using kamadak-exif. Store metadata in a new
file_metadata PG table. Apply EXIF orientation to thumbnail generation
so images display correctly. Add /api/files/{id}/metadata endpoint.
- JWT secret auto-generates and persists to <STORAGE_PATH>/.jwt_secret
- Remove setup token: first admin setup is open until system initialized
- Fix schema.sql: move CREATE EXTENSION pg_trgm/ltree to top
- Update login UI and auth.js to remove setup token fields
Implement a complete Nextcloud client compatibility layer so that
Nextcloud desktop/mobile sync clients can connect to OxiCloud.

PUT, DELETE, MKCOL, MOVE, COPY, HEAD, PROPPATCH)
- OCS API endpoints (user info, capabilities, notifications stubs,
sharees, unified search)
- Basic Auth middleware with app password verification, account
lockout integration, and blake3-keyed auth cache
- App password management: create, list, revoke via both native
API (JWT-authenticated profile page) and Nextcloud OCS endpoints
- Nextcloud file ID mapping (oc:fileid) with persistent DB storage
- Chunked upload support (Nextcloud v2 chunking protocol)
- Trashbin WebDAV interface
- Avatar (SVG placeholder) and preview (redirect) handlers
- User profile page with app password management UI
- URL user validation on all DAV routes (403 on mismatch)

Since the blob storage migration (3c7c16f), thumbnail generation failed
with "No such file or directory" because the handler constructed logical
file paths that don't exist on disk. Resolve the actual blob path via
get_blob_hash() + dedup_service.blob_path() in both upload and get
thumbnail handlers. Add regression tests.
- Add type aliases (FileRow, FolderRow, FolderRowPaginated, FolderRowOptUser) to reduce type complexity
- Simplify redundant closures in app_password_handler and webdav_handler
- Remove needless borrow in auth_handler
- Collapse nested if/let chains in login_lockout, webdav_lock, auth, rate_limit
- Box LockEntry in acquire() Err variant to fix large enum variant warning
- Rename DeviceCodeStatus::from_str to parse to avoid should_implement_trait lint
- Add #[allow(clippy::too_many_arguments)] and #[allow(clippy::result_unit_err)] where appropriate
- Convert integration_tests from cargo feature to custom cfg attribute
- Add check-cfg lint config in Cargo.toml for integration_tests cfg
