i ESP like that there is now quite a few results per page, that's great!!

!m amCap1712

You're doing good work, amCap1712!

The sad thing is the process to style suggestions is longer than that to implement search

heh

and I am stuck with no idea on how to do it

welcome to development hell :D

lots of tutorials/talks still no clue

SO I decided to postpone it

what exactly?

will first do artist bio pages

and fix about page crashes

what is style suggestions? like suggest what?

I'll post a screnshot if possible

about page crash fix is good fix

wait you mean suggestions dropdowning in the search box?

because you can wait with that, personally I hate those and never use those

only for pre-entered things like urls or previous search-terms do I ever use that

only pre searched suggestions

will be available

having drop-down showing entered previous search-terms is fine and I think that's s great idea :)

I mean they show something like this https://images.fonearena.com/blog/wp-content/up...

aha! clever kid <3

there is an unneccessary icon

i only want text

that only in medium text

aha

idk if that's mobile-model dependant....

it shows too big text too?

:(

so working on it

lets see how it goes

good luck!

i too dislike it when unecessary things show for me, one of the things is like that, hah you're like me :D

btw did you see there was someone here talking about mentoring android-app project?

gr0uch0mars <-

yup

(I almost changed name to harp0venus as a joke ) :D

any other thing I should test now?

sorry for being sluggish about it lately too, I had some irl crap

It's me hahah I was wondering about reviewing the android-app code, too

gr0uch0mars: have you worked with mb-development before?

nope

hmm

here's the code https://github.com/amCap1712/musicbrainz-android

well, the android app is not exactly servercode so

I'm new, so I'll be open to help you in any way you tell me

a lot of changes are not pushed to the repo

I'll do it soon

thanks amCap1712

but you both (and I know amcap lready has) should use the website, edit on it and get used to the user side

I strugglw with git 🤦‍♂️

reosarevok: MBS-8978 is actually half-fixed as the search doesn’t return packaging id

MBS-8978: Schema does not include id attribute for <packaging> element of a release https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-8978

Huh

Ok, I'll check

KassOtsimine: do you mean MB website? I've been editing data for a long time :)

That is fixed though, this is a new ticket, since it's a bug :)

gr0uch0mars: we *usually* only accept mentors that are integrated into mb community already.. but

reosarevok (cc bitmap): On the same topic, why using id rather than uuid like for primary type and all?

gr0uch0mars: that's super!

(you kept saying you were new so idk :D)

amCap1712: I can help you with git too!

thats great

reosarevok: it’s not: http://musicbrainz.org/ws/2/release/?query=mbid...

yes, I thought you meant developing for MB: like server-side, etc

yvanzo: I didn't add that, it was already there IIRC :) I just added it to the schema

this looks like a good match already!

:DDD

gr0uch0mars: sorry, didn't recognize your username so.. 😅

yvanzo: my point is that that ticket was specifically about mmschema, and this not being there is a bug in search we should fix but not the same ticket

reosarevok: Adding it to the schema made the search ws output invalid.

(then again who am I to say that)

haha no problem, I'm the one new and should be presenting myself properly

Sure, but that's a bug on the search since it should be there (how didn't we notice it, anyway? :D)

reosarevok: Please, I’m not trying to blame anyone or something, just trying to sort it out.

Anyway, it doesn't matter, I'm just saying we need a new ticket

Rather than reopening that one

Sure, it's not about blame, just how we organize the ticketing! :)

(also the chat is going to hella fast on my phone rn 😅)

I have already be looking into updating the search side, but now I am wondering whehter we should have packaging uuid instead?

re: why id, that's what we already had in the other results (http://beta.musicbrainz.org/ws/2/release/321ff2...)

And I assumed we couldn't break those

Otherwise, uuid seems sensible to me

(maybe a rename for ws/3?)

Oh ok, sorry, I probably mixed with another attribute.

(I did not think of checking search, I assumed that'd work :D )

If bitmap agrees I'd say make a ticket to standardise all these to uuid (or mbid or whatever) for ws/3

yvanzo: you're doing the search bit then, I don't need to?

(I'm fine with doing it too, if you want)

gr0uch0mars: I had gone through your community post on api

earlier

the only thing is for now we need to stick to ws2

we can later think on the api once the app becomes completely functional

amCap1712: yes, you are absolutely right. Stick to WS2 and later think about the API

however we should be careful to make the app abstract about how the API works

let me review the code and share my thoughts on it

yes thats already the way i'm working

wait let me create a new branch and push all changes

from what I've sen gsoc entries that get acceted: make a realistic (and detailed) timeline

make room for 2catchup weeks" for whne things take longer thna you expect thme too

amCap1712: ok let me know and I'll review then

aight, everyone who is on the list to be a mentor should've been invited now. if you feel that you've been left out, ping me.

gr0uch0mars: around?

yeap

you know about chat logs

ruaok: thanks. Received and applied

great

do you mean this? https://chatlogs.metabrainz.org/brainzbot/metab...

yes

I hold secret meetings all the time.

though its mostly just me who ever shows up.

on bad days not even I show up. 🙄

gr0uch0mars: sometimes we maybe at different times so I wanted to know if you check out logs

gr0uch0mars: ya need to fix conection ;)

this is my first time with IRC… 😬

gr0uch0mars: look at test-push branch

got it! No new commits, right?

not yet. I'm just pushing those

Just a sec

may I walk you through the code

as you might not know what's done and what's to be done

gr0uch0mars: pushed all chages

you can check now

amCap1712, what do you think about using the Project's tab to organize the work to be done, so everyone can see the progress: https://github.com/amCap1712/musicbrainz-androi...

amCap1712 : thank, I'm checking the branch now

gr0uch0mars: Would https://tickets.metabrainz.org/projects/MOBILE/... be suitable?

yvanzo: sure!

yvanzo: works fine for me as well

yvanzo: I get an error on trying to view the page

If I can help you with the setup, just let me know.

yes sure

Where to begin

yvanzo:^

works for me
