21 minutes left is great. I'm loving this conversation!

This week we had a couple of things happening with BookBrainz. A new release went out on 7th, containing all of QuoraUK's achievement system work and finishing off the MB OAuth login system (which is now the only way to log in to BB)
Also in that release were fixes for a small selection of bugs (technically the first proper release since April, although we had updated the server in between). Relationship editing in particular is now working much better.
Since then, I wrote a script to produce data dumps once a week. This is just a case of using pg_dump now that all emails and passwords are gone from the database.
I also finished off the BookBrainz docker system, which uses Docker compose to set up postgres, redis, elasticsearch and the web server, on top of a debian jessie base.
Freso
ruaok: Yep. I just hope we also have time for CatQuest's agenda item. :)
Yay for new BB release!
LordSputnik
Finally, I completed work on the new build system, which basically just consisted of me changing the extension of our React JSX files to simplifying require/import statements. The PR for this is up at the moment, awaiting review by Leftmost.
So last Monday I went to Lund to spend the week with my girlfriend.

CatQuest
tsk CallerNo6, remember he's moving to barcelona soon :o
Freso
I had planned to spend more time on MB than I ended up doing, but it was really nice to spend a lot of time with her before I move even further away.
CatQuest
:(
Freso
And I did manage to be a bit around and about, as well as add a couple of new releases.
We went home Saturday, so I've mostly been catching up on MB and RL things after coming home.
Oh, and before I left, I booked a place for zas, bitmap, chirlu, and myself to stay at for the MB dev. meeting coming up soon.
And related to that, I'm getting pretty stressed/anxious/paralysed about all the things I need to sort out in the next few(!) days.
zas

BrainzBot
You're doing good work, Freso!
ruaok
it is a stressful time. summit and moving. I feel ya.
Freso
So I'm not sure how much I'll be around for the next ~week, but I guess we'll see.
CallerNo6
when is your move?
Freso
CallerNo6: Final move is Oct. 1st, but I hope to have pretty much sorted my belongings by the 20th when I go for the dev. meeting.
CallerNo6
holy handgrenade, that's soon!
Freso
(I'm in BCN 20th to 27th, so I have ~4 days in CPH between dev. meeting and final move. Hopefully that will be just for cleaning the apartment.)
(Which would mean that I can spend that last day or two in Lund with gf and then go straight from Lund to airport on the 1st.)
Anyway, fin.
Gentlecat!

I was trying to make my new computer work right most of the week
apart from that I was figuring out how things are going to fit together with consul, registrator, etc
ruaok
sounds like linux. :(
Freso is still trying to make his machines work right - ❤️ Linux :D
Gentlecat
tweaking docker integration in projects that I already converted
250€ windows laptop with a regular hard drive
fun.
I mean fin
not fun at all
Freso
:p
Who's still up? alastairp?
Gentlecat
did I mention that spanish keyboard is weird
Freso
:p
I guess no more people are up?
CatQuest: aliasscript question
CatQuest
great. ~4 mins
Freso
7. :)
ruaok
8 by my clock.
CatQuest
well you're getting a walloftext
I wanted to ask about this: would it be possible for someone to write a small userscript for me that would do the following: given a list of names, comma/whatever delimited with set commands, create a set of "add alias to instrument" edits.
and it would thus insert edits with adding alias of norwegian, swedish and japanese with official yes and type instrument name, and a second one for japanese; official no, and type search hint.
Basically just a script/scriptlet/bookmarklet/whatever is most easy to make, that I can interact with/button-push/bookmarklet whatever, on the musicbrainz.org/instrument/MBID/ page, that then will pop up a little text box that lets me just paste a string of text which it then parses.
Now I know the *proper* way to do this is to fix aliases/batch alias adding/etc. but that is a "to be done at some time etc" thing. also people are busy with moving and dockerising and whatnot now, writing a short hackish script like this shouldn't really take *that* much a time. The reason is that the adding of aliases is the *prime* reason I am so slow adding instruments/not getting them done at all, this kind of script would save me *SO*
much time that I can probably do a lot more! :)
Initially I thought the kind of nikkibot script like https://beta.musicbrainz.org/instrument/13300a8... fetched names directly from wikidata, but after asking her about it, it turns out those were from transifex translations, so nikki suggested instead that someone make a user script that fetches labels from wikidata and lets me add the ones I want
and that might be even better and also be a lot less work for everyone involved! :D
Freso
There's already the user script that fetches WD data for artists.
Maybe that can be tweaked to work for instruments?
CatQuest
:o
Freso can't remember the author of it
reosarevok
loujine ^
Freso
Of course, that's only for the "Add/edit artist" page, so wouldn't work as-is for aliases.
CatQuest
yea
soo want to be able to add aliases while adding isntruemnt (or artists actually too but)
Freso
Maybe chirlu or who-was-it-that-wanted-to-help-more-with-MBS-dev could look into doing the "batch alias adding" ticket, at least get an idea of the amount of work it would be?
chirlu
Certainly doable, but not a five-minute thing.
CatQuest
oohhhhh
Freso
bitmap could probably whip it up in week's time, but he's pretty much occupied until the server move is done. :(
yvanz
What about asking to userscript authors on discourse?
CatQuest
yes. wich is why I just wanted a quick "scripty" thing while
hmmm
Freso
yvanz: That's a good idea, actually.
CatQuest
yea
CallerNo6
+👍
CatQuest
i didn't think of it, dummy i am
well I assume this is going in the "notes" sectino so inadvertedly we'd be asking there already :P
Freso
CatQuest: Would probably be good to ask on its own though.
CatQuest
yea possibly
but would just reposting it as-is be fine?
Freso
I think a lot of people don't read the notes that do read other parts of the forum.
Sure.
CatQuest
I have limited time to rewrite things
and with a test comming this wednsday
well I guess time is up :/
good thing we don't have any more agenda items!
yvanz
There is a specific "userscripts" tag. :)
CatQuest
I know. i hleped make it? idk
Freso
I guess we also reached a resolution. :)
CatQuest
I'll try to remember to do this asap
Freso
So thank you for your time all!
CatQuest: 👍 :)
</BANG>
yvanz

BrainzBot
You're doing good work, team!
Freso
59 seconds past.
ruaok
thanks Freso
CatQuest doesnt *really* agree but ok
CatQuest hopes we'll go back to a more structured meeting next time (maybe a middle thing?) idk
TOPIC: MetaBrainz Community and Development channel | MusicBrainz non-development: #musicbrainz | MeB meeting agenda: Reviews
CatQuest
hmm did rahulr, kartigupta, and QuoraUK get a say?
oh yea and the bb things. (well I guess LordSputnik gto a say)
CatQuest goes of to eat. Hungry!
Freso
CatQuest: One of them said last week that they didn't want to be "auto-included" in the people for reviews anymore, but would chime up if they had something to report.
Since GSoC is over now, they're no longer required to give weekly status updates.
CatQuest
which was that? rahulr ?
Freso
I think it was QuoraUK.
CatQuest
oh yea. i forgot this
aha
yea
just os used to thme by now :D
Freso
Yeah. :)
LordSputnik
QuoraUK is away for a few weeks until university starts, he said, so might see more of him in October
CatQuest
:)
Freso
I also miss updates from gcilou and stanislas and opatel. ;_;
CatQuest
yea!
LordSputnik
gcilou was here though
CatQuest
yup
Freso
LordSputnik: Yeah. ❤️
CatQuest
:D
Freso
She didn't give an update though. :)
CatQuest
"tidlig krøkes skal den som god krok skal bli"
it was hard to tell with everything going on :/
maybe a little more cat herding next tiem freso
I was kinda pissed that it looked like my agenda item was going off.
