[Feature] Automatic Library Scan

[dickscheney]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Often find myself waiting an extended period of time when scanning my library after uploading a large amount of files. Generating scene covers/previews/scrubber sprites/hashes can take too long especially when run at the end of the day after multiple batches of files have been uploaded.

Describe the solution you'd like The ability to set incremental library scan tasks (i.e. Automatically scan library every X hours)

Describe alternatives you've considered N/A

Additional context I think it would be cool

Try using api and crontab? Though a bit complex. Maybe auto-detect will be better, like jellyfin.

I use the API, but I miss some transfer options for the generate content request. For example, the option to generate phash.

@B0PE it's under GenerateMetadataOptions mutation. Check /playground for full schema.

@DogmaDragon thank you. I looked at /playground some time ago, but didn't really get any further. Now that I've looked again, I've seen that there's a documentary on the right that helps a lot.
