ianmcorvidae: I think I can start working on UI improvements and documentation now. And then probably sqlalchemy integration and api, after getting a better idea about how stuff works.

can you share a bit more info about what needs to be done there?

Gentlecat: that sounds like a good place to start, to me
2014-07-01 18230, 2014
ianmcorvidae
the biggest outright missing features are matching, importing to MB, and more data sources, in that order of priority
2014-07-01 18217, 2014
ianmcorvidae
matching I've stubbed out a bit but it may not be clear what I intend from what I've done; importing to MB/seeding I'm guessing you've never worked with on the MB side either
2014-07-01 18242, 2014
ianmcorvidae
more data sources can be worked on but it's mostly writing the mapping stuff, so I'd say making the UI more clear, documentation, etc. are higher priority
2014-07-01 18232, 2014
ianmcorvidae
is that what you wanted to know, or was there something more specific re: matching, API, sqlalchemy, etc.?
2014-07-01 18256, 2014

what's the difference between old version (on http://geordi.musicbrainz.org/) and the new one? not sure if you talked about it
2014-07-01 18211, 2014
ianmcorvidae
well, it's completely rewritten :)
2014-07-01 18239, 2014
ianmcorvidae
the change that precipitated the rewrite was moving the data storage from elasticsearch (wasteful, slow, bad scalability) to postgresql (awesome)
2014-07-01 18252, 2014
ianmcorvidae
but also making it much easier to write mappings
2014-07-01 18213, 2014
ianmcorvidae
the old version just had a big monolithic "map" function that did it all
2014-07-01 18254, 2014
ianmcorvidae
and setting it up to be a bit better for further work; the old version it would be impossible to implement something like merging, and it's harder to move in the direction of materializing matches from the MB side, like the discogs stuff I was talking about
2014-07-01 18221, 2014
Gentlecat
and I guess basic browsing that is currently implemented is just a temporary replacement for searching
2014-07-01 18208, 2014
ianmcorvidae
well, the browsing stuff will probably stay, but yeah, search does need to be added
2014-07-01 18239, 2014
ianmcorvidae
notion there was probably to use solr in some capacity, but I haven't really done the research on that yet
2014-07-01 18213, 2014
ianmcorvidae
(which shouldn't block others from working on it, I just mean the technical bits of how to wire it all together, not any design decision type stuff)
2014-07-01 18235, 2014
Gentlecat
huh, I didn't know about minus sign feature in jinja templates
2014-07-01 18241, 2014
Gentlecat
should start using that in CB too, we've got a lot of whitespace there :)
2014-07-01 18254, 2014

2014-07-01 18220, 2014

in MBS's template system there's four levels of it, we mostly only use the - but we've started getting a few ~ and = in there
2014-07-01 18205, 2014
ianmcorvidae
I forget exactly which one jinja's {%- -%} corresponds to though
2014-07-01 18212, 2014
ianmcorvidae
TT is a really weird template system :P
2014-07-01 18217, 2014
Gentlecat
is it Perl specific thing?
2014-07-01 18225, 2014
ianmcorvidae
TT is perl, yeah
2014-07-01 18242, 2014
ianmcorvidae
it's not any more a perl thing than jinja's a python thing, neither's a cross-language template system, but yeah
2014-07-01 18256, 2014
Gentlecat
I never worked with it, so no idea how it works there
2014-07-01 18247, 2014
ianmcorvidae
yeah -- TT has the one that trims nothing (obviously), - trims whitespace up to and including one newline (but not further), = cuts all whitespace (including many newlines etc.) into one space, and ~ removes all whitespace before whatever's next
2014-07-01 18248, 2014
Gentlecat
is there any reason why you wouldn't want to cut all whitespace?
2014-07-01 18258, 2014
ianmcorvidae
well, sometimes you want the space there
2014-07-01 18208, 2014
ianmcorvidae
since it's not always just between HTML tags or whatever
2014-07-01 18223, 2014
ianmcorvidae
if you have [% entity.name %] ([% entity.comment %]) you don't want it removing the space before the (
2014-07-01 18240, 2014
ianmcorvidae
TT doesn't distingish between what jinja does with {% and {{
Picard developers: please release Picard 1.3. More and more, people are coming to the forums with questions and problems with 1.2 that are solved by telling them to download and install the 1.3 daily build. Also: Picard 1.2 was released more than a year ago while there have been massive improvements to the program since then- it’s time.

ianmcorvidae: should I just fork and submit pull requests from it?
so if the release group got deleted, I guess it would fail to look it up and then the page wouldn't display right

another thing that came to my mind regarding the switch to https: the CAAs json files contain links to releases/releases groups with http, should we regenerate those or at least insert https links in new files?
I like how the GSoC organizers can make it uttlerly clear what the deadlines are. I'm looking at one email where the deadline is shown 5 times. 3 times in bold.

Hmm, interesting that the (release) relationship editor fills in the recording name rather than the track name when doing 'add related work'. I can’t decide if that’s a problem or not. :-/
