[Feature Idea] Danbooru IQDB Standalone Page

Posted under Bugs & Features

Since Danbooru has it's own IQDB engine available to registered users, it'd be nice if there was a standalone page like http://iqdb.org where this functionality could be accessed, outside of the Uploads page or the Find Similar function.

The Danbooru IQDB engine already takes in URLs as parameters, but it requires a POST request so it's not accessible outside of a script.

The first step would be to make an IQDB HTML page that is accessible with a GET request with a URL parameter as an input.

The second step would be to add in support for files which would be accessed via a POST request from the IQDB HTML page.

Thoughts?

Made issue #2833 for this. I think it's a good idea, I had been thinking about it myself. Yeah, you can use danbooru.iqdb.org just as well, but it would be good to have access to Danbooru's IQDB server.

@sweetpeɐ: Find Similar/the upload page uses Danbooru's own internal IQDB server. It's the same code that iqdb.org uses, but it's integrated with the site so that it updates immediately for every new upload.

Well if this would work with SaceNAO's browser addon than def +1. Would release demand on IQDB.

That's one of the primary reasons I recommended it... I know IQDB.org can get backed up sometimes, so having an alternative available would definitely be useful.

As far as SauceNao goes, for Chrome, if the URL request method is changed to GET, then the plugin can be used. The Firefox version can use either GET or PUT, so it could definitely be added.
