Discovery Date versus 'ctime'

[fsck222]

As a Jajuk developer and having to reinstall Jajuk very often, "Discovery Date" of my tracks are always no older than a week. This is unfortunately making this function useless for me. I was wondering if it was possible to have a tool in the the configuration panel that will sync (/force refresh) my files but instead of adding them at the date of today, use the ctime of the physical file.

Instead of a tool it could simply be an option in the configuration such as: "Use file system time as the 'Discovery Date'"

What do you think?

OK, the option could be in Advanced tab of preferences view

Note that a new .jajuk_test directory is created for each new x.y release. You can save the collection (and discovery dates) by simply copying collection files to the new directory (migrations are automatic)

For the moment and still we don't have more users with this request, we'll use a "special property" (no GUI, boolean to set set in the properties file)

ok then. I created #830 as the second phase.

Done. Notes:

• Requires a deep refresh to be token into account
• If a track maps several files, jajuk uses the last scanned file date as track date
