We are using a LetsEncrypt certificate for this rather critical domain, staticbrainz.org
And our setup is rather fragile atm regarding this matter
So we have different options, one is of course to make things tougher so we don't have any issue with LE certs, but that's not that easy as it involves many moving pieces
mayhem
going forward that would be the most economical, I think.
zas
So the simplest option is buying a certificate for this domain
mayhem
and secure
zas
the second it to move to a domain we already have a paid cert for
static.metabrainz.org was my example (I configured it and checked the cert we have work, it does)
ApeKattQuest
it will mean editing a lot of (mostley instrument) image urls (but that can be doen with script, probably)
zas
the question arises because we avoided a lot of issues last years by using hard certificates on critical websites
and this one became critical now (as many websites depend on it)
buying a new cert implies more time to manage/deploy/renew
monkey
Whatever creates less work for you and atj would be the key factor IMO
zas
using existing one, has no extra cost
ApeKattQuest
I like staticbrainz being a thing, but alas
mayhem
I guess we should answer one question: do we care about using staticbrainz.org?
zas
strenghening LE stuff will require time and will never be as resistant as an hardcoded cert (or it will require a lot of resources, we'll see)
mayhem
its not very visible and could easily be replaced by static.meb.org
Is it possible to do the transfer so that images redirect at least temporarily so we have time to make changes if needed?
mayhem
zas: objections to my approach?
zas
we have links in MB database to change (for instruments)
reosarevok
(theoretically external users might be using the instrument pics from MB, which I expect would break, but we have a repo full of them so it's not the end of the world)
ApeKattQuest
I guess some icons and such also
ph that reminds me that there's some linked images in the wiki too
ApeKattQuest: for now I guess still use staticbrainz, until zas gives the sign; we will anyway move them all in one go
ApeKattQuest
👍
arsh
lucifer: maybe
mayhem
lucifer: ^^
monkey
arsh: confirming not working
arsh
Oh I see
lucifer
looking into it
arsh
I was scared for a second I thought I messed up 😅
zas
ApeKattQuest: I configured the domain already, and since we agreed to move to it, you can start to use it right now (think about it as a beta). The full move will require few more changes we'll do soon, I guess we'll announce the move officially in a blog post when it will be completed. Since old domain will stay around for a while, nothing should break.
ApeKattQuest
zas: alright! I'll start usingit, to get used to it
A few of the LB docs use the /1 versions of the apis
But without the versioning as well the apis work fine
lucifer
it should always be /1
akshaaatt
Makes sense
lucifer
umm, for instance?
akshaaatt
I think jasje had pointed this out. I don't have any reference to provide
But if you say /1 is the go to, then we shall continue with that
lucifer
it shouldn't work without the /1 afaik. if it does, its a bug.
akshaaatt
Cool

mayhem, arsh: similar-artists lookupshould work now.

cool -- what happened?

lucifer: if a user is already followed, an error isn't returned. it just says status: "ok". Already reported?
or should i create a ticket?
This is for the follow endpoint btw
oh wait said it wrong
if a user is already unfollowed or is followed at first place, an error isn't returned. it just says status: "ok".
This is for the unfollow endpoint

reosarevok: aww too kind, I suppose I am the backbone of civilization as we know it <3
Congrats monkey!! Woooo. Guessing it wont be a traditional wedding :P
What do people think about tweeting when we have meeting notes up? Reading meeting notes was one of the things that made me realise how much happens at MeB
jivte: you’ve missed three meetings, so I’ve removed you from the meeting regulars list. You can re-add yourself when you’re around again (dw, you’re not in trouble) - https://musicbrainz.org/doc/MetaBrainz_Meeting/...
reosarevok: I didn’t realise the regulars page was a doc, I guess you have to transclude the change? ^
Didn’t hear any objections (you snooze, you lose), so I’m going to tweet out meeting notes until someone tells me to stop
