#metabrainz

✌️

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

going forward that would be the most economical, I think.

So the simplest option is buying a certificate for this domain

and secure

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)

it will mean editing a lot of (mostley instrument) image urls (but that can be doen with script, probably)

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

Whatever creates less work for you and atj would be the key factor IMO

using existing one, has no extra cost

I like staticbrainz being a thing, but alas

I guess we should answer one question: do we care about using staticbrainz.org?

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)

its not very visible and could easily be replaced by static.meb.org

I guess a compromise would be to:

1. Move to static.mb.org now

2. Plan to make LE robust so we can use it for all certs.

thoughts?

objections?

i think zas should make the call

But who's he gonna call?

he's the one who will be working wit certs etc

well, zas is asking for feedback, but no one is offering anything.

static busters!

it was my idea, moving to static.meb shouldn't be too hard

I vote for that, seems simpler

then lets do that and make sure that LE is stable in time

It shouldn't be too problematic for the MBS team if we go that way

as long as the images are moved/redirected i'm fine

yep, static.meb.org is fine for MBS either way

(and i don't have to mmanually do that)

Is it possible to do the transfer so that images redirect at least temporarily so we have time to make changes if needed?

zas: objections to my approach?

we have links in MB database to change (for instruments)

(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)

I guess some icons and such also

ph that reminds me that there's some linked images in the wiki too

we'll keep staticbrainz.org

but it will redirect to static.meb

redirect to static.metabrainz.org

Oh. Then that should work just fine

Even better

so links will not be broken, until LE stuff breaks

we still need to change them internally

Ok then

That seems to be done for this topic, we can coordinate specifically later

mayhem: wanna introduce the last topic in a sec?

but for now I should start using static.metabrainz.org/irombook/$instrument/$ins... urls?

or

Google has enabled passkeys for our google accounts.

which are like SSH keys, but for logins.

I haven't been able to make it work, but if anyone does, please let me know.

fin. back to reo

In case it's useful

</BANG>

Thanks all

More next week, with mayhem in the hot seat

While I chill in the forest / sauna / sauna in the forest

So apparently my project has stopped running, I believe it's artist similarity endpoint that's not working. If anyone can confirm the same. It's at https://labs.api.listenbrainz.org/similar-artis...

ApeKattQuest: for now I guess still use staticbrainz, until zas gives the sign; we will anyway move them all in one go

👍

lucifer: maybe

lucifer: ^^

arsh: confirming not working

Oh I see

looking into it

I was scared for a second I thought I messed up 😅

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.

zas: alright! I'll start usingit, to get used to it

Hi lucifer!

hey

A few of the LB docs use the /1 versions of the apis

But without the versioning as well the apis work fine

it should always be /1

Makes sense

umm, for instance?

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

it shouldn't work without the /1 afaik. if it does, its a bug.

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
