- Trigger re-render after mask is loaded
Backend:
- Fix inpaint endpoint to call edit_image() instead of inpaint()
- The AI providers use edit_image() method, not inpaint()
New features:
- Smart Select tool: Click to select objects using SAM (Segment Anything)
- AI Inpaint tool: Edit selected regions with text prompts
Changes:
- frontend/src/js/tools/smart_select.js: SAM-powered selection tool
- frontend/src/js/tools/ai_inpaint.js: AI inpainting with prompt dialog
- frontend/src/js/services/api.js: API service for backend communication
- frontend/src/js/config.js: Register new tools
- frontend/src/css/layout.css: Tool icon styles
- frontend/images/icons/: SVG icons for new tools
- backend/app/routers/tools.py: New base64 API endpoints
- frontend/Dockerfile: Updated for miniPaint build
- frontend/nginx.conf: Added /api prefix proxy
Frontend changes:
- Wire Smart Select and Color Select to canvas click handlers
- Add externalSelection prop to ImageCanvas for displaying AI-generated selections
- Add zoom controls (mouse wheel + buttons) to ImageCanvas
- Fix layer buttons (New Layer, Delete, Duplicate) with proper handlers
- Lift advancedToolMode state to App.jsx for coordination between components
- Add tool mode indicator overlay on canvas
Backend changes:
- Update smart-select endpoint to return JSON with polygon and bbox data
- Update color-select endpoint to return JSON with polygon and bbox data
- Add _mask_to_polygon helper function using OpenCV contour detection
- Add cv2 and base64 imports to tools.py
API changes:
- smartSelect and colorSelect now return { polygon, bbox, mask_base64 }
- Add torch, torchvision, segment-anything to requirements
- Create download_sam_model.py script to fetch SAM checkpoint
- Update tools.py to use local SAM with Replicate API fallback
- Add SAM model check to entrypoint.sh with helpful instructions
- Model persists in /app/data/models via Docker volume mount
- Implement SAM object selection via Replicate API
- Click on any object to select it with AI precision
- Falls back to flood-fill if Replicate API unavailable
- Update Dockerfile for rembg dependencies
- Add required system libraries (libsm6, libxext6, etc)
- Pre-download rembg model during build
- Create data directories for models and patches
Backend:
- Add /tools router with background removal, smart select, color select
- Add rembg dependency for AI background removal
- Add layer management API (list, flatten)
- Fix transparency preservation in blend_patch (veil collapse fix)
- Preserve alpha channel when reverting/resetting images
Frontend:
- Add AdvancedTools panel with background removal, smart select, color select
- Add Layers panel with drag-to-reorder, visibility toggle, flatten
