[BUG] Unable to find manual scan button

[slavexe]

Description of the Bug

Hi, according to the Libraries section of the documentation:

To manually initiate a scan job, you can click the action button library selection menu on the sidebar and select "Scan". You may also navigate to the library's overview page and click the action button and select "Scan".

For more thorough information on library scans, see the filesystem scanning guide.

However, I am not able to find any buttons that would allow me to manually scan a library. In addition, clicking on the filesystem scanning link in the documentation goes to a page that does not exist.

Expected Behavior

A button to manually scan a library should be present in the library overview page according to the documentation.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to library overview page
2. Scan button missing

Environment:

• OS: Linux

Build Details:

• Version: v0.0.7
• Docker: yes

The scan button in that location was removed, I believe it was during the library settings redesign (https://github.com/stumpapp/stump/commit/3ab05934e3d8fe54af09cf9893756f2aa81a7103).

I meant to add one to the scanning section of a library's settings, but looks like I forgot. I'll leave this open as a reminder to:

• [ ] Update the documentation to point people to the right location
• [ ] Add a button in the settings page
• [ ] Revisit topbar navigation and give it some love

In the meantime, assuming you are not a managed user on a stump instance without permission to scan, you have access to scan using the primary sidebar (3 dots next to library name opens a menu, click Scan).

Is there any way to do a manual scan if a user has the primary topbar option selected in appearance settings? I now see the manual scan option after switching from topbar to sidebar, but I personally prefer the look of the topbar better. That would explain why I couldn't find that button before. Thanks for clarifying.

Now that you mention it, I don't think there is! I've edited my previous checklist to include adding something there. The topbar is one of those things I added a while ago after being asked for it, but haven't had the time to revisit it.

No promises, but I'll aim to get some of these changes sometime before 0.0.10 is released
