originalPath key support

[LnLcFlx]

The problem I have now, is that I have related images, that I want stacked, that have EXIF info stripped and a different file creation time.
Using my current method of comparing filename and date does not work because some files won't get stacked.
And if I remove the date condition then photos across different folders get stacked that coincidentally have the same IMG_1234.

So what I actually need, is a way to only stack images if they are in a common folder (I'm mainly using external libraries).
Is it already possible to use originalPath as a key? I didn't see it in the docs.
Still I would need some additional features to only compare the directory path with the filename stripped.
A supercharged split on / would do where I can specify a range like 0:-1 to get back the whole string except for the last split part (filename).
This would also work with regex, I believe.

I am not using external libraries so I don't have a setup to test that, but here is an example of asset:

(utils.TAsset) {
    ID: (string) (len=36) "aaea8b69-1852-4803-a175-d9610028dad9",
    DeviceAssetID: (string) (len=39) "web-20180525-1805-002.jpg-1527264322000",
    DeviceID: (string) (len=3) "WEB",
    OriginalFileName: (string) (len=21) "20180525-1805-002.jpg",
    OriginalPath: (string) (len=89) "upload/library/df6fba2a-63e4-49bf-a6ec-fb266b45e813/2018/2018-05-25/20180525-1805-002.jpg",
    LocalDateTime: (string) (len=24) "2018-05-25T18:05:22.274Z",
    FileCreatedAt: (string) (len=24) "2018-05-25T16:05:22.274Z",
    FileModifiedAt: (string) (len=24) "2018-05-25T16:05:22.000Z",
    HasMetadata: (bool) true,
    IsArchived: (bool) false,
    IsFavorite: (bool) false,
    IsOffline: (bool) false,
    IsTrashed: (bool) false,
    OwnerID: (string) (len=36) "df6fba2a-63e4-49bf-a6ec-fb266b45e813",
    Type: (string) (len=5) "IMAGE",
    UpdatedAt: (string) (len=24) "2024-05-26T13:23:03.783Z",
    Checksum: (string) (len=28) "dAdBP8KG0iuYGvFTO117UpAoIFQ=",
    Duration: (string) (len=13) "0:00:00.00000",
}

Original path should be the one you want to use for this.
I will conduct some test based on that, but if you can provide one of your OriginalPath I could add a specific test for that to increase the chances of success!

Please, take a look at this release: https://github.com/Majorfi/immich-stack/releases/tag/v0.1.22

It's not with regex but with another key, originalPath. You should be able to do something like this to group the one with the same name in the same folder:

{
	Key: "originalFileName",
	Split: &utils.TSplit{
		Delimiters: []string{"~", "."},
		Index:      0,
	},
},
{
	Key: "originalPath", // "photos/2023/family/IMG_001.jpg",
	Split: &utils.TSplit{
		Delimiters: []string{"/"}, // ["photos", "2023", "family", "IMG_001.jpg"]
		Index:      2, // "family"
	},
},

I was trying to test this out.
But it turns out, that for every ghcr image after sha-271a894 not even my old criterion works.
I think there is an additional bug somewhere.
The container just exits with code 1 with the last message saying something like "🌄 27480 assets fetched".

For reference my old CRITERIA (working in sha-271a894 but not after):

[
  {
    "key": "originalFileName",
    "split": {
      "delimiters": [
        ".",
        "_cropped",
        "_edited",
        "_crop",
        "_edit"
      ],
      "index": 0
    }
  },
  {
    "key": "localDateTime",
    "delta": {
      "milliseconds": 1000
    }
  }
]

My new one (also not working):

[
  {
    "key": "originalFileName",
    "regex": {
      "key": "^(.*?)([\\._\\-](crop|cropped|edit|edited).*)?\\.([^\\.]*)$",
      "index": 1
    }
  },
  {
    "key": "originalPath",
    "regex": {
      "key": "^(.*/)[^/]+/?$",
      "index": 1
    }
  }
]

Thanks, created an issue for this, will take a look over the we!

First I think regex and originalPath are working.

But I think there is some escaping problem, but it might be a misunderstanding of docker (compose) or json or go on my end:

• I have IMMICH_STACK_CRITERIA='[{"key":"originalFileName","regex":{"key":"IMG_([0-9]*).*","index":1}}]' in my .env-file
• in docker-compose.yaml I then do under environment: - CRITERIA=${IMMICH_STACK_CRITERIA}
  This works.

But when I use (double) backslash escaping to match a dot . instead of an arbitrary character like so: IMMICH_STACK_CRITERIA='[{"key":"originalFileName","regex":{"key":"IMG_([0-9]*).*\\.JPG","index":1}}]'
it does not work at all, i.e. in the logs no stacks are created.

[Majorfi]

I think I found the cause. It's not linked to the . being escaped but by the extension being stripped first, no matter if it was in slip mode or reg mode. I change that, which should make the Regex work as expected :)

Hi,
I'm trying to use this regex but can't get it working.
([A-Z]+[-]?[0-9]{4,}([-][0-9]{4,})?)([._-].*)?.[\w]{3,4}$

https://regex101.com/r/hfjjeG/1

backslashes need to be escaped in json so \ -> \\
I think the rest is fine

[
  {
    "key": "originalFileName",
    "regex": {
      "key": "([A-Z]+[-_]?[0-9]{4,}([-_][0-9]{4,})?)([\\._-].*)?\\.[\\w]{3,4}$",
      "index": 1
    }
  }
]

It works!
