The fandom self-join (resolve a character's fandom NAME via Tag.fandom_id->Tag)
and the {id,name,kind,fandom_id,fandom_name} dict were hand-written in
TagService.autocomplete/.list_for_image, GalleryService.get_image_with_tags and
the api/tags handlers — the last few grown by this session's fandom-on-chip
feature. Consolidate to services/tag_query: fandom_join_alias() + tag_columns()
build the select; serialize_tag(row) builds the dict. Now a new tag field is
added in one place.
Over-DRY guard: TagDirectoryService selects the full Tag ORM + an image-count
aggregate (a different select shape) — left as its own variant. §8b: the
fandom_lookup alias lives only in tag_query; gallery + both api/tags handlers
serialize via serialize_tag. Test: serialize_tag handles enum + string kind.

FabledCurator
Self-hosted media curation — gallery, ML tagging, and subscription-driven downloading in one app. Part of the FabledSword family.
Combines what was ImageRepo (gallery, ML, importer) and GallerySubscriber (gallery-dl wrapper, subscriptions, credential capture) into a single product.
Status
Pre-v1. Not yet functional.
Quick start
For local development and testing, just:
docker compose up -d
# UI: http://localhost:8080
That uses sane dev defaults baked into docker-compose.yml and the dev
override (docker-compose.override.yml, auto-merged) — local builds, DEBUG
logging, exposed Postgres + Redis ports on the host. No .env required.
For a production-like deployment, override the dev defaults via shell env
or a .env file (see .env.example for the variable names) and use:
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d
# (skips the override so containers pull registry images)
Deployment posture
FabledCurator is designed to run inside a self-hosted homelab environment over plain HTTP. If you want TLS, terminate it at your reverse proxy. The app does not generate certificates, redirect to HTTPS, or set HSTS.
CI / Forgejo setup
The repo's workflows expect:
-
Runner label
python-ci— a Forgejo runner with Python 3.14, ruff, and Node 22 pre-installed. Bothci.ymlandbuild.ymluse this label. The runner image (runner-base:python-ci) is built fromCI-Runner/CI-python/in the operator's workspace;make pushfrom that directory builds and pushes a new image when toolchain pins change. -
Repo secret
RELEASE_TOKEN— a Forgejo PAT with the following scopes:write:package+read:package— fordocker pushtogit.fabledsword.comwrite:release— for future release-cutting workflowswrite:issue— for future issue-management automation
