Filtering media was keyed on `data-theme="night"`, which made it a property of
the theme that no user could turn off. Some people want their media tinted to
match the interface; some want to see the actual image.
A theme now declares a filter and whether it starts on, and the user decides:
night night-red on by default. An unfiltered thumbnail undoes dark
adaptation, which is the whole point of the mode.
amber amber-mono off by default. Amber is a look, not a night-vision
aid, so media keeps its real colors until asked for.
light - no filter offered, so no toggle is shown.
dark -
The choice is stored per theme, so wanting amber's tint says nothing about
wanting night's. The toggle lives in the theme picker, which puts it on the
Settings page and in the gallery at once.
Mechanically the rules now key on a `data-media-filter` attribute rather than
`data-theme`: a rule keyed on the theme could not be turned off. index.html
stamps that attribute before first paint alongside data-theme -- without it,
night mode paints a screen of unfiltered thumbnails while the bundle arrives
over a hotspot, costing the user the adaptation the theme exists to protect.
Tests cover both the attribute rule and the fact that the inline script's
duplicated ids and defaults still agree with names.ts.
The amber matrix is the same luminance collapse tinted to #ff9500 (red full,
green 0.584, blue zero) with a gentler gamma than night's: amber carries far
more luminance and clips to a flat wash otherwise.
The gallery gains a Media filtering section showing the WROLPi logo filtered,
beside an unfiltered copy that opts out with `night-unfiltered`. That copy is
behind a click on purpose -- an unfiltered image is a bright patch, and night
mode should not spring one on someone reading in the dark.
ui-design.md gains the media filtering contract it never got in Phase 0,
including the note that a Phase 3 custom theme names an existing filter id and
cannot ship its own matrix, since that would be code rather than data.

WROLPi
Create your own off-grid library.
WROLPi is a self-contained collection of software to help you survive the world Without Rule of Law.
WROLPi is intended to be run on a Raspberry Pi with an optional external drive attached. It serves up it's own Wi-Fi network so that any user with a laptop/tablet/phone can connect and use the library created by the maintainer.

Try WROLPi!
You can try out WROLPi by running the docker containers.
- Install docker-ce and docker-compose
- Copy the latest WROLPi code.
git clone https://github.com/lrnselfreliance/wrolpi.git
- Change directory into the code base.
cd wrolpi
- Initialize git submodules
git submodule update --init
- Build the containers.
docker-compose build --parallel
- Create volumes.
docker volume create --name=openstreetmap-datadocker volume create --name=openstreetmap-rendered-tiles
- Initialize the database (SQLite in the media directory).
docker-compose run --rm api db upgrade
- Start the docker containers.
docker-compose up
- Browse to WROLPi.
More Docker documentation is available in docker/README.md
Install WROLPi
Full installation instructions are in INSTALL.md. Pick the option that matches your hardware:
- WROLPi Portable (Live USB) — boot a complete WROLPi from a USB stick on any x86 PC or laptop. Nothing is installed to the computer; the first boot creates a persistence partition on the USB so your library, database, and configuration survive reboots.
- Debian 12 — install WROLPi onto an x86 PC or laptop.
- Raspberry Pi — install WROLPi onto a Raspberry Pi with an external drive.
- Docker — run the WROLPi containers on an existing Linux host.
Charter
Guiding Principals
- Storage is cheaper than power.
- Two is one, one is none.
- Run silently.
- Primary, secondary, tertiary.
- Secure as a bookshelf in your home.
Physical properties
- A WROLPi instance should be capable of running with a minimal of hardware:
- Raspberry Pi
- SD card
- External USB hard drive
- Power supply and cables
- Wi-Fi USER device such as a phone, tablet, or laptop.
- A WROLPi instance should consume a minimal amount of electricity during WROL event. It is expected power will be scarce when WROLPi is needed most.
User expectations
- A WROLPi instance should be run and maintained by a person (MAINTAINER) with a moderate amount of Linux and Raspberry Pi experience. It is expected that they should be able to do this using only the documentation on their WROLPi.
Software properties and capabilities
- A WROLPi instance should be able to "factory-reset" itself without any outside services.
- WROLPi should function completely without any internet services.
- A user should have easy access to their data if WROLPi fails:
- For example, a user can watch their videos by navigating a short and intuitive directory structure and opening the video in their preferred video player.
- WROLPi should be self-documented. The UI should contain a tutorial for USERS as well as the MAINTAINER.
- If the UI isn't functional, the code should be documented such that a user can restore functionality.
- WROLPi should favor pre-processing, rather than processing during a WROL event. Such as re-encoding a video, or processing captions. This is to ensure that when a user adds content during non-WROL time, the processing for optimum performance is already done for a WROL event.
