Add media via UI

[jiahuahl]

do after #6 and #7

user should be able to type into the app a command to add images or sounds:

command: add <filepath> [-a <aliases>] [-t <tags>] [-c]

arguments:

• aliases are comma separated strings (an alias string can have space)
• tags are also comma separated strings (a tag string can have space)
• -c means 'copy' if true, then we should save a copy of this media to local folder.

syntax notes:

• the 3 optional params can be in any order
• any duplicate spaces in a row should be deleted before any parsing. (e.g. "hello world" --> "hello world") this should make parsing easier and guarantee aliases/tags don't start with spaces.
• if comma separated strings are provided before a -a or -t, default to treating as -a.
• for the sake of parsing, assume for all commands in the future, whenever we see a " -[letter] ", (with space on either side) that that is a flag parameter. or if it's the last argument, a space isn't required at the end.
• flag parameters will only ever be 1 letter long. We can also just assume aliases or tags cannot contain a '-' followed by a single letter. i.e. "-s" and "-b" are all not valid aliases or tags. In such a case return 'invalid flag parameter -s'.
• These are fair game valid strings: "-ss", "lmao-s", "-!", "-1", "a"

now that i think about it it would probably be a good idea to implement some sort of generic / reusable 'parse arguments' function - basically find and separate each flag and their subsequent strings first, so it'll be easier.. up to you though.

we should automatically detect if the file is an image or a sound, then should call the appropriate function implemented in #6 or #7 to save media into database

if the filetype doesn't match our supported types just return an error message

if for any reason the command fails show usage instructions ^ basically paraphrase or copy the specs above

examples - these include (nasty) edge cases for parsing. feel free to use these as test cases :

• add yeehaw.jpg -a yeehaw, cowboy, wild west -t yeehaw, cowboy, guns -c
• add oof.wav hurt sound, roblox hurt sound
• add clownnose.mp3 -t funny, silly -a clown nose, clown honk honk, honk clown, peepoClown
• add unravel.mp3 -c
• add birdup.png -c bird up, -t eric-andre, bird, funny,
• add notlikethis.jpg -t aiyo, sad -a not-like-this
• add thisisfine.jpg

Why a command? Why not open files through UI???

Why a command? Why not open files through UI???

we'll have both, i wanna start w command lines first as it'll be easier hm idk, it might not be easier as parsing may be difficult? idk, probably not more difficult than dealing with all the different UI panels though...
