Done:

  • finish final problem: how to when video is available on server to be loaded (without downloading?) [done]
  • reorg files nicely for reproducibility across servers / easy cleanup / editing [done]
  • add indicator of current progress, make client fetch current processing progress instead of having serving process wait until done [done]
  • add cookies to survive refresh [done]
  • make rpm float + change num text input + indicate rotation of tank [fixed]
  • add c o l o r and style [done]
  • use a practice video [done]
  • github page tutorial for diyrotate [ongoing haha]
  • video tutorial link on page [doneish]
  • make output filename diyrotate+rot rate+rand+.mp4 (done)
  • bootstrap pretty website [logos spin/diy/epss] (done)
  • add logging / rate limiting (logging done)
  • make all return 200s (done)
  • make pictures go to links (done)
  • visitor counter (GA analytics added) (done)
  • side by side option [done]
  • add dreded documentation [ done]
  • adjust does not actually visualize circle correctly (done)
  • side by side add text showing each (done)
  • simply checking existence of file is not enough (file may not be completely written yet) (fixed)
  • add special code to allow touch devices (ipad/phone) to draw circle (done)
  • should be able to drag circle around (tint surface maybe?) to change the selection circle
  • resize on circle select requires a redraw of circle [done]
  • center crosshair for circle [done]
  • application arch documentation, ndpr.js docs, per-file header description docs [done]
  • textual step by step instead of the current nonsense [done]

Will not do (for a more motivated person than myself):

  • process reporting on upload and derotation:
    • we would like the user to know how much time remains in the upload or derotation
    • for upload, modify the process element length callback to somehow cache time passed since last callback; use that to compute time left to upload
    • for derotation, need some method of communicating between server and frontend.
      • method 1: GET a special /progress/ endpoint, have derot.cpp write a number to files there
      • method 2: w e b s o c k e t s
  • optimizations to derotation algorithm
    • currently putText() is called for every processed frame; would be more sensible to cache text drawing into a matrix and add that to main matrix
    • while current iteration seems to achieve zero matrix copies, likely not true; cannot convince myself warpAffine has no copies. if copies exist, can we reduce the data copied? i.e. when reading a video frame, only read region corresponding to designated circle, and constrain size of vid_frame/circle_mask matrix to exactly that size (visually, remove black bars)
  • readability / maintainability of frontend
    • react / some sort of state machine for frontend: sit down and actually think about states of UI, and code it with that model in mind
  • fortify backend against nefarious input
    • try-except pattern is pretty bad. should more verbosely explain what went wrong, reset backend state. is there any way bad agents can exploit bad backend code?
  • SQL
    • site counter, video progress should be stored in a lightweight database and accessible across submitted jobs. naturally extends itself to a queue, job tracking, and site counter. file or processed based tracking is not good enough
  • apple hevc codec auto reencode on upload
    • determine what happens when HEVC encoded videos taken from phone are uploaded to diyrot. Is user intervention needed to specify a suitable input for our program?
  • containerization
    • containerize all the things
