I'm currently running an experiment where albums are also included in
search results, but they don't cost you any of your limit parameter.
So the len(results) was often bigger than limit and tricking this
paginator into thinking we needed a next page when really we didn't.
This workaround can be undone when I decide how to make the album
results more official.
I discovered that werkzeug stores cookies in lists, with its .get
returning only the first item of the list. By converting the cookies
to a plain dict, I was breaking that functionality of cookies.get.
So, using werkzeug's MultiDict is the correct choice.
I've been thinking about this for a while but couldn't think of
the perfect way to implement it. I still haven't, so instead I'm
just starting with something and we'll see how to improve later.
At any rate, I can update the rest of the system to expect Albums
coming out of search so that if I ever have a better algorithm
everything else will already be ready for it.
For this first experiment, just any photos that are part of an album
will send that album out as a result. It doesn't even respect the
limit parameter, it's really just to see how it feels to use.
- album card has placeholder for future thumbnail.
- replaced nested tree hierarchy lists with separate boxes.
- list/grid view also applies to the root listing.
- added a sticky right panel for all the tools. not pretty yet.
- mechanism for adding sticky panel changed. instead of applying
it to the #right, you apply it to #content_body so that its
grid layout can be updated properly.
Alright, I got tired of confusing myself with the same-named
outer and inner package.
Keep in mind that every frontend implementation is supposed to be
its own independent project where etiquette is nothing but a
dependency. So the name backend is not ambiguous with the etiquette
backend.
