tie-browser

A scene browser and visual designer. Preview: the scene format can still change.

A scene is a directory

tie:/scenes/house/living-room/
  scene.json      the page
  page.risor      optional behaviour
  thumbnail.png   optional preview

scene.json has a format (fynerisor.scene/1), a title, an optional script, and a root object with place (x, y, w, h), props and children.

Run it

tie-browser
tie-browser -config ~/.config/tie/config.toml -collection Main
tie-browser -home tie:/scenes/home

If the home scene is missing, tie-browser creates a starter one. -pwplay sets the audio server URL (http://localhost:8080 by default).

Components

Type	Props
`tie.image`	`hash` or `path`, fit/fill
`tie.gallery`	`tags` (a live query), layout
`tie.collection`	album/series id
`tie.tags`	the tag picker
`tie.related`	co-tags of the current subject
`tie.document`	a PDF/document hash
`tie.audio`	an audio hash, transport
`tie.video`	a video hash, poster

Containers (vbox, hbox, grid, free) and hotspots (rect, circle) are built in. Actions are navigate, open, play and a small set of scene operations.

Design

Ctrl+E (or F4) opens the designer. Move and resize boxes, edit props, pick media from the library, and save. The save indicator is persistent: Unsaved, Saving…, Saved, Save failed. Ctrl+S saves a version; conflicts are handled by the store.

Thumbnails and indexes

SaveThumbnail renders the scene offscreen at 640×400 through the software canvas. The store writes scene-doc, member-of and links-to triples, which is what makes “which scenes use this photo?” a query.

Roadmap

Native mpv video surfaces and richer tag/chip pickers. The app is the newest in the family; expect the format to move.
