- Save original image before crop/rotation with '_debug_original' variant
- Store original_photo_path in labels_data.image_processing for debug access
- Update DebugRotationPanel to display original image instead of processed
- Update ItemDetailModal to pass original image path to debug panel
- Enables accurate crop/rotation visualization with true original image
Backend receives the original blob which may have EXIF orientation metadata.
Strip it before processing to ensure backend analyzes the same raw image space
that Gemini analyzed (which had EXIF stripped before sending).
This ensures rotation_degrees are applied correctly to the same image state.
Instead of transforming coordinates after Gemini returns crop_bounds, strip EXIF
orientation from image before sending to Gemini. This ensures:
- Gemini analyzes the same raw image as our backend
- crop_bounds are in raw image coordinate space
- No coordinate transformation needed
- Works for all images (with or without EXIF)
Added strip_exif_orientation() utility that removes orientation tag and
re-encodes image. Used in extract_label endpoint before sending to Gemini.
Add logging to compare file sizes:
- [EXTRACT] sent to Gemini
- [CREATE_ITEM] received when creating item
This will reveal if image is being processed/changed between extraction and local processing.
- Delete photo_path and photo_thumbnail_path files on item deletion
- Handle file not found gracefully with logging
- Preserves audit logs while removing actual image files
- Add rotation_degrees parameter to ImageProcessor.process_photo()
- Pass rotation through _auto_save_photo_from_extraction() to processor
- Allow no-crop fallback when crop_bounds is None
- Add buildPhotoUrl() helper to resolve backend URLs correctly
- Update frontend components to use backend URL for image sources
- Replace Use/Skip Photo buttons with checkbox in AI extraction UI
- Add images/ to .gitignore to prevent accidental commits
Addresses: rotation never applied, image 404s (relative to Next.js not backend), preview blank in edit form
- Extend ItemCreate schema with optional extracted_image_bytes (base64) and image_processing (dict)
- Update create_item endpoint to call _auto_save_photo_from_extraction after item creation
- Decode base64 image bytes and pass crop_bounds, rotation_degrees to helper
- Don't block item creation if photo save fails (log warning instead)
- Item returned with photo_path, photo_thumbnail_path populated if save succeeded
- Full backward compatibility: old clients without image fields work unchanged
- Add 5 integration tests covering all scenarios:
- Create item WITH image_processing → photo auto-saved
- Create item WITHOUT image_processing → no photo (backward compatible)
- Create item WITH invalid image_processing → item created, photo skipped
- Create item WITH crop_bounds=None → item created, photo skipped
- Create item WITH bytes but NO processing metadata → item created, photo skipped
- All 158 backend tests passing, zero regressions
New Component: ItemComparisonModal.tsx
- Shows existing vs new item side-by-side
- Highlights fields that are different (in yellow)
- Options to Update item or Skip (local-only save)
- Shows existing item ID and comparison details
Backend Changes:
- Updated error message to say 'Part Number' not 'barcode'
- 409 response includes existing item data for comparison
- Clear, user-friendly conflict messaging
Frontend Changes:
- New state for comparison modal (newItem, existingItem, existingId)
- handleOnboardingComplete() shows modal on 409 conflict
- handleComparisonUpdate() calls updateItem() API
- handleComparisonSkip() saves locally without syncing
- Better error handling distinguishes 409 from other failures
Workflow:
1. User imports item with Part Number that already exists
2. System shows comparison modal
3. User can:
- Update (merges new data into existing)
- Skip (saves locally, doesn't sync to cloud)
Backend:
- Added UNIQUE constraint check on barcode before item creation
- Returns 409 Conflict with user-friendly message if duplicate exists
- Prevents sqlite3.IntegrityError crashes
Frontend:
- Improved error handling for cloud sync failures
- Detects 409 status code (duplicate barcode)
- Shows specific error message to user
- Gracefully falls back to local-only save
Example error message: 'Item already exists. Item with barcode P66093-002 already exists (ID: 42). Update it instead or use a different barcode.'
