>>652687Hydrus Network is a booru-style media manager that lets you store, browse and retrieve from several kinds of file types, including image, audio and video (doesn't play audio natively; you have to use a external program), and archive (like .zip files). Hydrus is best suited for large collections.
Main retrieval methods include use of:
tags (either added by you or parsed from services with the use of scripts),
metadata (automatically generated at import time, such as: width, height, ratio, filesize, duration, mime, date imported, etc),
sorting (same options as metadata plus more options; can also be ascending or descending)
Simple search method. Can use tags and/or metadata. Shows you an item as long as all conditions are met. Only operators are AND and NOT; operands are automatically linked with AND.
Examples:
ABC XYZ -- Shows an item as long as it has tag ABC and also tag XYZ
ABC -XYZ -- Shows an item as long as it has ABC but does NOT have XYZ
-ABC -XYZ -- Shows an item that does NOT have ABC and also does NOT have XYZ --complementary result of first example, i.e. opposite result--
ABC XYZ -MNO -"metadata about size being lower than 500KB" "metadata about ratio being 16x9" -- Shows any item that: has tag ABC, has tag XYZ, does NOT have tag MNO, has a filesize NOT lower than 500KB i.e. file is bigger than 500KB, and has an aspect ratio equal to 16x9.
You get the idea. Combine tags and metadata to filter.
