Pixory is a "personal image server" based on Tapestry.

The major addition in this release is an embedded FTP server which is tightly integrated with and controlled by the web interface.

There are a couple of new components in 2.1 that I would be happy to contribute to Tapestry is there is any interest. One of them is an implementation of a couple of component ideas that Howard mentioned on the Wiki. It's a "ShowMessage" component, that displays a message along with an icon to indicate the message type. You can see this on the pixory login page if you put in invalid information (the "stop" sign). This component is extended in 2.1 to implement the "long running response" concept. You can set a flag on the component to tell it that a job is running. The component will display an icon (in the case of pixory, and animated icon) and will perform a meta-refresh to check back with the containing page to see if the job is done yet. When the job is done, it automatically displays a completion message. You can see this in action on the advanced configuration page when hitting the "rebuild index" button.

The other component that might be interesting to others is a generalized "MimeContentContainer". This simple component can vend an http response that has an arbitrary Mime "content-type" and binary mime content.

This is from the included WHATSNEW file:

Other changes:

* Pixory now has an embedded FTP server. This server is not simply grafted onto the web application as a separate entity. Instead, it is intimately connected with, and controlled by, the web interface. This allows for easy and secure drag-n-drop file transfers, file deletions, file renames, etc., between remote Pixory albums and the local desktop file manager.
* Certain long running tasks now produce a "running indicator", to let the user know that the application is working and not simply stalled out.

Fixed bugs:

* On launch, Pixory now checks to see if another instance of Pixory is already running. If so, it launches a browser to connect to the already running instance and prints appropriate message on the console.
* Pixory no longer attempts to launch a browser when run headless.
