SourceConfig.timeout defaulted to 3600s (1 hour), but download_source's Celery task has soft_time_limit=900s and hard time_limit=1200s. So gallery-dl never hit its own subprocess.run timeout — Celery always killed it first. The hard SIGKILL leaves no terminal flip on the DownloadEvent, which then sat pending/running until the recovery sweep flipped it to error at 30 min from start. From the operator's seat that was a ~30–40 min "hang" on every retry of a broken source. Pinning the default to 900s (matching Celery's soft_time_limit) lets subprocess.run raise TimeoutExpired cleanly inside Celery's window, and the existing `except subprocess.TimeoutExpired` branch (gallery_dl.py:635) captures it as a clean error_type='timeout' with a real message. The DownloadEvent flips to error in ~15 min instead of waiting on the recovery sweep at 30. Per-source bumps still live in source.config_overrides for legitimately long first-syncs. The new _DEFAULT_GDL_TIMEOUT_SECONDS constant carries the rationale and the Celery-soft-limit dependency in its comment. Operator-flagged 2026-05-30 on 59-source strand pile retries.

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
