[Feature Request] Ability to force/overwrite bif files

[ravensorb]

Any thoughts to adding support for overwriting an existing bif file with the newly generated one?

It looks like it might be as simple as adding something to line 401:

if not os.path.isfile(index_bif):

I was thinking something as simple as:

if not os.path.isfile(index_bif) or os.environ.get('FORCE', '0').lower() in ['true', '1']:

Does that look write? or is there more to it (ex: deleting the sub folders to clear out all of the old info)?

Might also be a cool feature to be able to filter to only process specific libraries and media

I've just pushed v1.5 to support this. you can set REGENERATE_THUMBNAILS to true

I wasn't able to test this, if you can please test and report back here. Thanks!!

Sorry was off line for a few days. Let me take a look. Note, was also going to submit a PR that allowed for setting the console width (makes it easier when logs in docker if the wrap is 180 or greater).

is this why I get this?

Hi @Paradoxum sorry i missed this. re col width, perfect, ill look for that PR when you open it.

re REGENERATE_THUMBNAILS. Can you try again and let me know if you hit issues?
