Hello, I am currently developing a graphql endpoint for the musicbrainz api. I have the basic queries, i can search for annotations, areas, artists, etc.. However I don't know how to solve one problem. If i have for example a relations for one of the entity, i would like to batch a request and send it to the api to resolve those requested fields in

one request instead of 100. Is there a way to do so?

For example: An event has a relation to a place and an artist. How can I send a request to the api to get both of these entities with the data i would like to show? I have both ids, but I would like to get more data from them than the basic response.
right now we don't support what you're wanting, sorry. but we agree that that would be the blueprint for future versions of the API

Okay, thank you for the quick answer.

the only real way of doing what you want to do is to install a copy of MB on a VM and then query postgres directly, but that is much more work than calling an API. :(

Yeah it is, and i only want to use what i can from the API. Is there a way to add a flag for the API to get a response without anything left out? For example, an entity has aliases, relations and tags but the don't always contain data so the response won't show the aliases. Is there a way to force the api to give those back as well? even if its

just a null value

have you taken a look at the inc= arguments?

I have, but in the example: https://musicbrainz.org/ws/2/event/?query=eid:bc5… it doesn't add anything. And those are used when you don't use the ?query tag if i understood it, and doesn't have an impact in this case. Or maybe it does and i use it in the wrong way.
I have known that you can search an entity with that, but that was still helpful in other way for me. Thank you.

The problem is if i have the 25 events for example, I can't really send 25 seperate requests for the API to get these details because the one request per second limit. Or if we talk about 100 it's more bothersome.

I dont think it is realistic to make this endpoint using our API. With direct DB access, yes.

It might be. Thank you both for the information.

Hey

we had weird issues with sir-prod failing to connect to pg on floyd
I wonder why this is happening, perhaps too many connections at the same time or something like that, but I didn't find anything saying so

where are pgbouncer logs?

I noted some of postgresql logs are duplicated in various /var/log files, that's something to improve imho, prolly through proper syslog ng config inside container
2021-02-02 03323, 2021

they're outputted to docker logs, at least

no occurence of pgbouncer in last 1M lines

do I miss something?

huh, not sure. there are some on pink though they are not labeled with "pgbouncer", just LOG stats
2021-02-02 03330, 2021

I don't think it's configured to log much beyond stats
2021-02-02 03312, 2021

but the postgres logs/graphs don't really show anything suspicious to me

I checked firewall logs, no packet were blocked on pink or floyd
