fixes #179

  • Uses the standard Timeline component
  • Goes back 20 years
  • Displays photos from this day and "tomorrow" for convenience (so overnight events still work as expected)

Yeah, freaking cool! Waited so long for this!
What do you think of

  1. extend the range to 1-2 days in the past and 1-2 days in the feature from now?
  2. if there is no catch extend the range even more. Show some photos from the month of the past years e.g.? Discover: Show memories like today x years ago photoprism/photoprism#720 (comment)
  3. call it moments or recommendations?

We can definitely discuss the date range. I'm not particular about this.

  1. call it moments or recommendations?

Not particular about the name either. :)

What do you think about a notification (off per default) if there was a photo found of this day in the past?

I'm more in favor of a dashboard widget, personally :)

Good idea, it's better with a dashboard widget

the behavior will be weird, cause lastmodified is impacted when you tag an image for instance, so it won't be exactly "on this day"

but I guess that's the best we can do with Dav

Once nextcloud/server#30366 is merged this could be changed to creation_time

Awesome @marcelklehr! So design-wise, I was thinking it could be in the first row of "Your photos", similarly to the recommendations in Files, or how we sort favorites up top. But after a very quick mock-up, I’m actually not sure anymore. :D

I’d say it’s good how you did it – just thoughts about naming and timespan:

  • The headings might be better as: "1 year ago December 2020", otherwise it’s always December December December etc. ;)
  • The naming is "On this day", but we should probably also fuzzily include photos a few days around the date, right? Cause it’s probably rare for people to take a photo every single day, and then often "1 year ago" would just be nothing. Maybe then even we rename it to "Through the years" or "Memories" or something similar?
  • I assume that it’s starting in 2021 is just to show as an example? Cause it would start at 1 year ago, right?

Thanks for the review!

Cause it’s probably rare for people to take a photo every single day, and then often "1 year ago" would just be nothing. Maybe then even we rename it to "Through the years" or "Memories" or something similar?

I've changed it now to also include 3 days before and 3 days after "today".

"Memories" is a bit too generic, IMO, "Through the years" is nice but lacks the "current date" aspect. So far, I like "On this day" best, even though it may not always display photos from exactly the same date.

I assume that it’s starting in 2021 is just to show as an example? Cause it would start at 1 year ago, right?

My bad. Fixed now :)

First of all thank you very much, cool feature.

A long term suggestion: once nextcloud/server#30416 will be included, some other possibilities could be considered. For example using the geo data and showing the photo farthest from your usual location

Nice @marcelklehr! :) Only one detail, the heading bolding could be improved to what I mentioned:

1 year ago · January 2021

Specifically the "x years ago" part bold, nd the "Month 20xx" part not bold.

Additionally to what I mentioned before, for spacing there could be a middle dot inbetween with 2 spaces to either side.

Ah. I missed that.

No, I had to merge another big PR bumping dependencies, you need to rebase and drop js changes.

Great feature :) what do you think about implementation of a plugin to dashboard showing a preview from 'on this day'? I would love it as this is my main landing page when working with Nextcloud :)

It seems to be pushed to "master", but is there an additional step to enable it in the standard photos-app within NC 23.0.2?
Cause I can't "see" the feature ...

@jakobroehrl

It will be released with the next feature release, this is 24.
23.0.2 is only for bugfixing
