Morning people. I don't suppose anyone knows anything about the Listenbrainz server setup? I've followed the readme and can access the webserver running on localhost but it's not on port 8080 like the document says. Also I get this error when trying to sign in and I'm redirected to musicbrainz.org - "mismatched redirect uri".

marc2k3: the default port is 80, that is an inconsistency in the readme
marc2k3: when you registered an app on MB, what callback url did you use?
marc2k3
http:/localhost/login/musicbrainz/post
And there it is -probably that missing backslash--- doh!
Yep, that was it. I feel rather silly now....
Anyway, thanks for the pointer. :)
iliekcomputers
no problem :)
marc2k3
While I'm here, if I were to make changes, do I simply cancel the running server and then start it again running develop.sh? Will it notice the changes automatically or are there other steps?
I know nothing about linux, python etc. :P
iliekcomputers
marc2k3: it'll notice changes in the webserver automatically
marc2k3: but there are scripts like influx-writer and bigquery-writer which don't restart with changes in them
marc2k3
Cool, thanks for your help.

The main reason I installed it is so I can spam it with bad requests to make a better client. It's unlikely I'll touch the server but you never know.
iliekcomputers
we should have a page listing submission clients, I think.

Mine is just about feature complete now. It can submit MBIDs, cache scrobbles when offline/LB is down and bulk submit but of course there are bound to be bugs I haven't discovered yet. Of course it won't interest many in this channel as it's for foobar2000 which is a proprietary application which runs on a proprietary operating system. But it's on discourse for anyone who wants to take a look.

mark2k3 - Any chance we can interest you in writing a Kodi plugin for Listenbrainz?

Sophist-UK: I think it's unlikely. I have no real experience programming except tinkering with one particular foobar2000 component which gives me acess to all the API features I need. It's highly doubtful anything I know from that will transfer to another application I've never even used before. Still, if there was an existing last.fm plugin, it might be possible to rewrite that??
Sophist-UK
If it was that easy I would write it myself. I think Kodi stuff is written in Python and I can code in Python - but no experience of Kodi itself.
marc2k3
If there was an existing last.fm plugin, most of the hard stuff would already be implemented such as tracking how much a track has played (LB uses the same rules), reading tags, hopefully caching on failure etc. The only bits that need changing would be the web requests and handling of the response.
Leftmost
Does LB now have a last.fm-compatible API?

Sophist-UK: is there a Kodi dev channel where we might try to find someone?
Sophist-UK
No idea.
Just use Kodi on my Amazon Fire Stick.

Hey guys!
I am new here.
Can anyone tell me how to get started?
zas
Welcome raman, how to get started on what ?
raman
Like what should I do so that I can start contributing to the projects
Microsoft and GSoC. Quite some summer for you, wasn't it
samj1912
yeah :P
I will prolly write something later on, on how I managed both :P

If anyone who actually uses the thing and wants to use LB talks to them, that might be useful :p
Leo_Verto
speaking of LB, I have the same question as Leftmost, how do I use the last.fm compat api?
apparently people have managed to get spotify working with libre.fm so maybe LB could also work that way
Leftmost still can't get into Spotify.
reosarevok
As in, they won't let you in?
Leo_Verto
I was pretty critical of it myself for quite a while, but honestly, it's just so damn great!
like when I had started using it for a while and songs I used to listen to years ago started popping up in my weekly mixes
and then there are the radio stations which manage to identify and seperate the different types/moods of music I listen to which is just awesome

I can't bear to pay for music I can't keep.
marc2k3
Sophist-UK: is kodi some sort of joke? I've never been more enraged in all my life trying a new bit of software. It's clearly not for desktop users such as myself.
reosarevok
Leftmost: don't think of it as paying for music, but paying for a service :p
agentsim has quit
Leo_Verto
well, you can use the desktop version without having to pay for anything :P
Leftmost
Yeah, but ads.
Leo_Verto
although spotify might wonder why all of it's queries to any of the ad servers all resolve to localhost…
Leftmost
reosarevok, I can barely bring myself to pay for Netflix, and that's only because there's no good way to buy video.
Leo_Verto
I did end up getting premium earlier this month though, the convenience of Spotify on my phone just is too great
I used to be firmly in the "I buy my music" camp but I've just discovered tons of music I wouldn't have come across or bought whole albums of the other way
Leftmost
I depend on word of mouth.
Leo_Verto
I just don't know anyone who shares the same taste in music that I do, the closest I got before Spotify was plug.dj
Leftmost
I depend on reo for some of it. :P

Quesito: seeing as we've got 1.1k responses now, I feel September 1st is still a good date to close the survey. what do you think?

okay, we should probably update the banner and post again on social media about the survey coming to an end
remind all the people who are putting off the survey that they have to get it done soon
