it should have the same logic as there

lucifer (IRC) I wanted to ask for some help. So im working on importing playlists from Spotify. Regarding fetching the tracks, im kinda confused. So once I get the tracks from Spotify in json, how can i put them into LB? I checked the code, still didnt figured it out :( (should i use def _convert_spotify_play_to_listen(play, listen_type) function? what should i do next?)

im sorry if thats too much questions

ApeKattQuest: Sure, we can do it manually. If unavoidable :)

don't worry about it, questions are what we're here for

ApeKattQuest (IRC): okay, thanks :)

aerozol: but hat's how it's done with release/RG etc credits, there is no other way

basically the logic bhind renames asking for renames should be the same on AC on release/rg and relationships

that way it won't be confusing if/whn thy act differntly

If the UI can’t be done without it being confusing I agree, simple is best

I mean I get what you're thinking that if i explisitly set the Ac as something that's a typo or whatever becasue that's what it is and it so happens that that's the same as the current artsitn name

that it would be neat if there was a way to say "no, this is rly the name"

Yeah that was my thinking

but there is currently no such thing for release/rg ac either :)

Releases tend to always have a pretty explicit credit, so I figure it’s a bit different. But I acknowledge that I’m adding complexity that might hold back what is an improvement overall

I’ve asked for feedback on the ticket, in Discord, to see if there’s anything we haven’t thought of :)

[musicbrainz-server] 14yvanzo merged pull request #3177 (03master…cldr-44-mbs-13489): MBS-13489: Update alias locales to Unicode CLDR 44 https://github.com/metabrainz/musicbrainz-serve...

OH OH

MBS-13489

MBS-13489: Update alias locales to Unicode CLDR 44 https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-13489

rimskii[m]: you can retrieve the artist name, recording name and release name of the spotify track and call this api https://api.listenbrainz.org/1/metadata/lookup/... (code at https://github.com/metabrainz/listenbrainz-serv...)

yvanzo[m]: can you somehow always subscribe me to any "update alias to unicode CLDR ## i always want to know

oh! tuvan!

intrlingue oohh

sure. but if you can it would make me very happy indeed

thank you

You’re welcome.

mayhem: jasje: I don’t know about the spotify wrapped team, but I do not something about the regional marketing teams employed for wrapped… HUGE effort. Custom campaigns/billboards/posters/digital for a huge amount of countries. Local teams required for most (and a few spots of trouble with weird translations etc where they didn’t do that haha)

I can imagine now that they’ve cornered the market they may not see the point, but who knows.

I have a feeling they won't be spending that dosh again

Welcome to another Monday meeting!

🐟

🍌

I have a mailed review from ApeKattQuest but I see he's here, so, ApeKattQuest, start? :)

Arararara~! hi!

so I finished with the belorussian duda (Matstsyanka) but there is still much todo

and otherwise I'm working on the backlog of things that required ID papers

this week I promise to pick up slack and add the missing dudes

fin, go whoever can hum the lupin III theme (any one of them)

Other people in my list today: reosarevok, bitmap, zas, mayhem, yvanzo, monkey, lucifer, akshaaatt, atj, aerozol, ansh, kellnerd, Pratha-Fish, jasje

(as usual, any others who want to give a review, let me know)

aerozol: wanna go? :)

I can’t hum any, but I do love the soundtracks to the Lupin I’ve watched!

lupin theme intensifies!

whooo

Big thanks to yvanzo for dragging me through installing Docker on my Win box

I have test MB running locally as of Saturday! No promises I’ll be leaping into code, but pretty cool, and hopefully we’ll add some details to the docs re. installing on Win

I was still busy with other work, but it’s winding down

Got a few tickets out of my brain, which ended up taking a while

If anyone’s interested

Improvements for Music Neighbourhood: LB-1509, LB-1510

LB-1509: Genre explorer https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/LB-1509

LB-1510: Music Neighbourhood depth/levels/node connections https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/LB-1510

MBS-12791

MBS-12791: Share edits to social media/other channels https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-12791

this isn't interesting ot me personally, but I know this is a MUCh requested feature with the younger/mobile users

<lucifer> "rimskii: you can retrieve the..." <- oh i see! Thank you very much !! That means that then i can pass that json straight to ListenCard, right?

!m aerozol

You're doing good work, aerozol!

And I commissioned a lovely artist in my shared space to draw a graphic for a Picard window, which is a bit of a test run to see if there’s appetite for it elsewhere, or more in Picard

PICARD-2843

PICARD-2843: Illustration for the 'first run information dialog' https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/PICARD-2843

rimskii[m]: yes, sort of. we can discuss the details after the meeting.

Did a once-over of little niggly LB website improvements that could be done

If you want to join the meeting and give us a quick update on what you’ve done rimskii, you can :)

otherwise, go lucifer!

hi all!

last week, i worked on debugging issues that LB prod running out of database connections, still a wip but some progress.

aerozol: oh, can i? :0 where i can join it?

rimskii[m]: I'll add you to my list :)

sorry lucifer, go on :)

also, worked on fixing some issues spark dumps. organised a workshop to introduce some college students to LB and OSS.

that's it for me. monkey: next?

Hello !

Other people in my list today: reosarevok, bitmap, zas, mayhem, yvanzo, akshaaatt, atj, ansh, kellnerd, Pratha-Fish, jasje, rimskii[m]

Last week I finished working on fixing the BB search indexing issues we've had, and deployed that. Fixed !

I then fought the LB test suite and dug deeper into some recurring modal test issues, now I know how to fix simialr tests in the future

I finished working on the new LB homepage

Helped debug an issue preventing login in the LB android app

And reviewed some PRs

That's about it for the big stuff !

kellnerd: go !

Hey there :)

This week I have continued working on my cueshit to support more formats as input or output.

reosarevok: Thank you! what time the meeting will be? (its currently 12am in my timeline, soooo)

rimskii[m]: now

While trying to implement these parsers and formatters, I have probably overengineered my catch-all duration/timestamp formatting function :D

But hey, it's working and less redundancy = good

kellnerd: lmao i thought its gonna be via videochat

Other than that, I did a bunch of MB editing, voting and tagging a few more releases with Picard. Now that I'm using LB there is no more excuse for files without MBIDs :P

rimskii[m]: Want to go next?

yep

You just need to give a quick summary of what you've done and (if you want) what you plan to do this week :)

(and then call someone else from the list, which is:)

Other people in my list today: reosarevok, bitmap, zas, mayhem, yvanzo, akshaaatt, atj, ansh, Pratha-Fish, jasje

So currently Im trying to add a feature to import playlists from spotify (well as you can see from my messages xd). I did the mockup, got my approve from monkey, so now im doing the technical part

for prev week i was trying to test export playlist features to soundcloud and apple music, but well I need to get 100$ for apple dev account and soundcloud dont give their api keys anymore, so im trying to contact them via email

welp thats it, i was also fixing some minor bugs like stripping markdown formatting, fixing music player bar so it goes more smoothy and so on

!m rimskii

You're doing good work, rimskii!

thats it! thanks for listening (or reading hehe)

Don't forget to call someone else to go after you :)

thanks !

reosarevok: reosarevok (IRC): i'd like to give a small update too!

Other people in my list today: reosarevok, bitmap, zas, mayhem, yvanzo, akshaaatt, atj, ansh, Pratha-Fish, jasje, geetika[m]

BrainzBot: i love how bot is showing some support xd, thats cute

geetika[m]: actually, just go for it :)

@geetika:matrix.org go for it!!

go geetika[m]

oh yeah, hi all!

wasn't that productive a week. but I got this github repo that tracked bpm for sound files

and it worked by spewing out visulaisations, but there is a bunch of interpretation still left

plus, i think our project might do well with a simpler code, so this week will work on that!

that's pretty much it unfortunately :)

pick someone to go next

zas (IRC): you wanna go?

Hey

Last week it was mostly about coding tools to convert Picard V2 plugins to V3

that's still early, but phw and I start to actually code stuff related to that, see https://github.com/phw/picard/blob/plugins-v3/P... for more details

apart that, usual supervision, sys upgrades, PR reviews, and MB edits. fin. bitmap ?

hello

last week I worked on some additional caching fixes that I found related to MBS-13481 - https://github.com/metabrainz/musicbrainz-serve...

MBS-13481: Deleted release’s event/label information wrongly remains and cannot be further modified https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-13481

that was deployed already

I also worked some more on the artwork-indexer to get it ready for deployment...so testing, fixing minor issues, adding more tests, comparing its behavior to the current CAA-indexer, documenting, etc.

fin. go yvanzo[m]!

Hi!

Last Friday I released the new version of MusicBrainz Server with the cache improvements that bitmap just mentioned.

The companion MusicBrainz Docker release has a fix for a blocking issue in build.

See https://blog.metabrainz.org/2024/02/16/musicbra...

As aerozol mentioned earlier, we have had two calls in the week for setting up MB Server (in development mode and without search) on his Windows host.

It was mainly based on my previous call with lucifer, but there are some differences.

So we still have to investigate those for a reliable documentation.
