Consolidates duplication that owning the native ingester left against the still- live gallery-dl path, and fixes a parity gap the duplication hid. A1 — shared quarantine: extract file_validator.quarantine_file (move to _quarantine/<slug>/<platform> + write the .quarantine.json provenance sidecar). gallery_dl._validate_and_quarantine and patreon_downloader._validate_path both call it. PARITY FIX: the native path now writes the provenance sidecar it previously skipped — threads the media url through for source_url. A2 — make_run_stats(**counts) factory in gallery_dl for the canonical run_stats key set; gallery_dl._compute_run_stats and ingest_core both build through it so the shape can't drift (gallery-dl path gains a benign dead_lettered_count=0). A3 — one safe_ext in utils/paths.py; importer._safe_ext (thin wrapper, kept for the Path call sites + memory pointer) and patreon_client both use it. Closes the double-impl of the URL-encoded-basename ext gotcha. A4 — promote gallery_dl._truncate_log/_extract_errors_warnings to module-level truncate_log/extract_errors_warnings; download_service calls them directly instead of reaching through self.gdl for native-result log shaping. The staticmethods stay as thin delegators for existing callers/tests. Behavior-preserving except the A1 sidecar parity fix. Test: native quarantine writes a .quarantine.json (test_patreon_downloader). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
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
