Filedime, an open source almost feature complete file explorer written in Rust (for all filesystem interaction,backend), Tauri(for frontend, front-backend intercom), File querying using Ollama (Go) and RAG (Python).

Features implemented:

• multi window, open in new window open in right click context menu
• tabs, open in new tab option in context menu
• hot reload/ monitor for changes: markdown, html files using the watch button that shows up on previewing the file.
• search with speed and responsiveness parity with fzf
• folder size compute with speed and responsiveness parity with baobab(Disk Usage Analyzer).
• bookmark files or folders.
• details screen for list sort by date, size.
• optionally show immediate sub folder count of a folder.
• recent files list.
• show image dimension along with file type. (cannot use image crate as it cannot be used on nixos in default preference)
• move files
• undo last operation
• show ramdisk among files (for the time being can bookmark ramdisk)

Subtle features

• ollama api based integration for asking questions to your files.
• path autocomplete as you type.
• no of each file type in present location.
• show name of right click file above context menu
• show file location on hover
• show device vendor name on hover
• LOC for ts, rs, js, java, md ,css, html, toml, etc more can be implemented as required.

Will be added based on demand

• System Tray icons for opening new window and access recent files.
• Chat history is not passed along with query as this will severely constraint query token size, or increase time needed for reply.

Recommended IDE Setup

• VS Code + Tauri + rust-analyzer

Build from source

clone the repo
bun i should use node version 20 in a new terminal window "cargo tauri dev" for testing.
in a new terminal window "cargo tauri build" for making executables (.exe for windows or bin file on linux).

when browsing through code use the extensions listed in extensions.code-profile in vscodium/vscode when building on nixos use the shell.nix file provided if necessary

currently the code may contains lots of comments in rust it will be cleared up in the future.

Server guide for the complete stack for reference

Ollama- http://localhost:11434/ FiledimeGPT (Python)- http://localhost:8694/ FiledimeGPT LAN url - http://:8477

Chat self reference

Chatting normally should query ollama endpoint from ts, if contextless or if FiledimeGPT server is not running, else if FiledimeGPT server is running, to specifically run query on ollama endpoint include "o2c" (abbrevation for outside of current context) at the begging of the chat.You can also start with generally to run on ollama endpoint via FiledimeGPT server. From LAN FiledimeGPT you can use ollama only if ollama is set to accept requests from 0.0.0.0/ if FiledimeGPT Python server is running

Thanks to all the maintainers of the libraries listed in the frontenddepslist.txt and depslist.txt files in the repo.
