The sidebar showed Juno=7 and sub=blank because the scanner's
folder.photo_count bookkeeping is broken end-to-end:
for root, dirs, files in os.walk(folder_path):
folder = await get_or_create_folder(...)
...
processed_files += 1 # global counter
# AFTER the loop:
folder.last_scanned = datetime.utcnow()
folder.photo_count = processed_files # only the LAST folder
processed_files is the running total across the whole walk, not
per-folder; and the assignment runs once after the loop, only on
whichever folder os.walk happened to visit last. Result: that folder
gets the grand total, every other folder gets nothing (or stale).
Rather than fix the scanner's bookkeeping (which has leaked into
two production scans already), the tree endpoint now computes
counts on demand from the photos table:
- One GROUP BY per source root: photo.folder_id → COUNT, excluding
discarded
- Each node starts with its DIRECT count
- A post-order walk accumulates descendants so every node reports
recursive count — i.e. clicking the row gives you that number of
photos because the photos query also expands descendants
The stored Folder.photo_count column is now unused by the API. A
future cleanup could drop it from the model entirely.
Verified on the dev DB: Library=7 (4 direct + Juno=2 + sub=1),
Juno=2, sub=1.
