History Since setting in .json is still ignored-- all history sought #117

Closed kauffy closed 7 months ago

kauffy commented 10 months ago

This is a variation on my prior issue asking about the date format. Then I saw this issue:

[https://github.com/get-got/discord-downloader-go/issues/116#issue-2022103346](History --since not working #116)

That describes the problem exactly, except that issue was resolved by 2.4.0, and I am using 2.4.0, and still having the issue

I'll work on fixing this when I have time this week, in the meantime deleting the cache/history folder before running history should fix the issue.

I've cleared cache/history, and I'm in a largely improved state, except (my autoHistorySince is set to 2023-10-31)-- image

and also image

kauffy commented 10 months ago

I guess there's an argument to be made that autoHistory should mark where the last time it downloaded from a given server/channel/format before and not search before that.

In my use case, I'm using it to grab my Midjourney images-- but I only need the history to catch whatever images I may have generated while DDG wasn't running. Of course, initially, the "grab everything" was required and worked perfectly. So many pictures!

"autoHistory should mark where the last time it downloaded from a given server/channel/format before and not search before" is the intended purpose of cache/history, not only for autoHistory but for everything, but something is clearly broken. I'll need to restructure how the caching & since handling works.

kauffy commented 10 months ago

I get a lot of that output-- but a lot less of the garbage since I dumped the cache/history. And I should say that this utility is a freaking godsend. I am a packrat, and don't want to lose a single image, and given that Midjourney likes to give me images in ephemeral messages, and that their own download facility is garbage, this is-- again-- a godsend.

Should be fixed with v2.5.0, reopen if not.
