#musicbrainz-devel

plus i'm a sucker for trying new stuff out

homebrew feels a bit more lightweight too, and I like that

well, I've got my macports working cleanly, so I'll stick with that.

yea, it's not particularly fun moving from macports to something else

it now even has support for microcontroller programming. (avr)

I don't have a lot of stuff in macports, just postgres and irssi, so I didn't have a huge amount to move

which is fun. I'm progamming a geeky necklace for luciddrmr

ooo, nice

i did some microcontroller programming

and hated it :P are you working in an assembly language?

uc, resistor, led, switch. put the necklace on to turn it on. :)

no. C.

ah, i could handle that

on tuesday, I was in geek heaven.

programming MB (very high level) and programming PWM LEDs (very low level)

and a couple of other projects thrown into the mix. it been a while since I hacked all out. :)

haha, nice

woot, nearing 100% tests passing

and the dichotomy between.. Turn this LED on vs download this entire document as basic primitives of these projects. awesome.

cool, the perl debugger just got stuck in recursion while dumping a variable

aCiD2: So what do you suggest I do regarding the hover colours?

I created a small mockup of what I would like them to look like, http://www.webdevout.net/test?02w&raw

navap: I'd like to find someone to make the decision

maybe ruaok can

someone who is either of us that is

wow: http://www.boingboing.net/2010/01/07/britain-mi...

holy shit

i didn't realise it was that bad here

hmmm. I think I should remove myself from this decsion as well.

I can't be objective about orange. :)

heh

post to mb-devel or mb-users and see what chaos ensues

aCiD2: is /freedb/import/<freedb id> supposed to work?

ah. /freedb/import/?catid=2a123813

how do I write a uri_for_action for that?

freedb importing hasn't been written

but it would be uri_for_action('/freedb/import', { catid => $id })

what is all the stuff in MusicBrainz::Server::Controller::FreeDB then?

TemplateToolkit branch stuff

ah.

that's been deleted in my "destroy old crud" branch that's in review

well, I don't care to touch that right now.

hi!

can someone help me with python-musicbrainz2 lib?

davi_alexandre: fire away!

though our python developers are asleep now

=D

i'm trying to use TrackFilter class to get tracks from database

but i'm having problem with the query parameter

the documentation says i can use a query in lucene syntax

but it didn't work

hrm

someone asked something similar a while back...

one moment

seens like the lib is enconding the query

hrm, from what I can see the query doesn't get any special treatment

davi_alexandre: can you paste your code?

filter = TrackFilter(query='tnum:(2) artist(them crooked vultures)')

results = Query().getTracks(filter)

no errors

but the results are not the expected

the query sent to the server is something like http://musicbrainz.org/ws/1/track/?query=tnum%3...

so, the server interpret only the tnum parameter

for it to work, the query should be http://musicbrainz.org/ws/1/track/?query=tnum:(...

i've checked, and picard sends the query in this format

Hrm, i think you're right

i'm pretty sure picard uses python-musicbrainz2 though :/

aCiD2, no, it doesn't use pymb2

outsidecontext: no?

and I didn't thik you were still up :P

i wanted to go to bed 2 hours ago :)

heh :P

hehehe =D

do you have any experience with pymb?

i've checked the lib files

i think you've found a bug davi_alexandre, might be worth contacting mathias

the webservice.py file

it uses the urllib.urlencode to build the query

yea

how do i report a bug?

if that url is valid, then it's our server that's in the wrong

davi_alexandre: best to email musicbrainz-devel [at lists.musicbrainz.org]

i think you need to subscribe before you can post

i will, thanks!!!

sorry i couldn't be more helpful, good luck :)

i think it's a server problem, it should interpret both forms

you helped me a lot!

yea

we're doing massive server dev atm though, i'm not sure we'll be able to push out a fix for that any time too soon

davi_alexandre, aren't you just missing a colon in your code?

filter = TrackFilter(query='tnum:(2) artist:(them crooked vultures)')

outsidecontext, no, in my file is ok ;P

tks people! bye!

mmh, i can't see what should be wrong with the query.

just checked in rbrainz, it generates exactly the same query, and it looks fine

encoded the same?
