# CaraArchive Index Dataset

### 1) This is an Index Dataset, not an Image dataset
- This dataset contains **0 image data**.
- It only contains links to Cara App's CDN and metadata.
- HuggingFace may load some images in the preview because it detects the CDN links, however those images do not exist as data in this dataset, HF literally just loads them using your own connection as a preview.

### How to Query the Database with `tool.py` (make sure `catalog.db` is in the same directory)

**To see a clean summary overview of an artist:**
```bash
python tool.py --user artist_fc17f3c7 --overview
# or query by author UUID:
python tool.py --user fc17f3c7-73ab-4866-8d1a-554da8ea68a9 --overview
```

**To see full breakdown and all image links by artist:**
```bash
python tool.py --user artist_fc17f3c7
```

**To see all artworks, software, metadata, and creator for a specific post:**
```bash
python tool.py --post 00002b4d-120a-4e94-bae7-49b9c905bc05
# or using web URL:
python tool.py --post https://cara.app/post/00002b4d-120a-4e94-bae7-49b9c905bc05
```

**To find the post and creator that an artwork image belongs to:**
```bash
python tool.py --art tenaebron-S4TIL677BLm8bh_T0jB6I-post-cover-image.jpeg
# or using direct CDN link:
python tool.py --art https://cdn.cara.app/production/posts/93d6c843-1f4a-429d-8144-31e9099b95c6/tenaebron-S4TIL677BLm8bh_T0jB6I-post-cover-image.jpeg
```
