[mailed in] Last week I continued learning Solr and working on the Ansible role. Progress is a little slow but I now have a working SolrCloud node connected to a ZooKeeper cluster.

[mailed in] [couscous4304] 1. This week, while waiting for my proposal about “revamp LastFM listens importer” to be reviewed, I worked on some open issues and submitted three PRs:
one related to auto-playing next songs, and two related to documentation, Windows Docker usage, and test scripts. Super excited that one of them is already merged!
A huge thanks to Lucifer and Monkey for helping me debug the hot reloading settings for the frontend development environment; it was WSL2’s fault. More to come!

[mailed in] Last week I updated my proposal for adding RSS to LB with more details and submitted PR for [LB-1495: lb-radio endpoint is affected by letter case] and [LB-1554: Fresh Releases should allow changing sort order]. Just got more feedback for proposal, will improve it for the next few days.

and reviewing GSOC proposals and such

Last week, I worked on overview screens for BrainzPlayer revamp .. those are almost done. I have opened a PR. Turns out I messed up a part of it and have rectified that. After review, I’ll work on album pages

[quote = “bitmap”]
last week I worked on fixing test failures and issues I found in [MB pull 3207] related to setting the initial focus on some popover elements, which required some refactoring I haven’t pushed yet
I also worked on incoporating this branch into the ArtistCreditEditor refactor so that it works with floating-ui
also did code review and opened a few WS issues kellnerd helped find. I fixed one, [MBS-13518: JSON output of release group in /ws/2/recording lookup can contain a null artist credit], and then another unrelated one, [MBS-10826: Remove deprecated begin_area and end_area from JSON WS]

Last week I have made very good progress with getting the results of my MB API client fully typed, even for complex include parameter combinations.
You can see the results (with auto-generated documentation) at @kellnerd/musicbrainz - JSR
Bitmap helped me with testing and a few cases where I got stuck; this way we even found some API inconsistencies (mentioned above).
Cueshit became the first tool to use the new MB client, now you can split audio files by specifying a MB release URL.
And I have finally started to think about GSoC, my proposal (BB importer reloaded) should be ready soon.
After all I developed most of the ideas in 2023 already, so it is mostly reworking the remaining parts of last years proposal : P

Last week I started working on caching frontend queries to the backend to make page navigation faster and prevent rate limit errors.
It is now working like a charm. I’ll now work on extending it to more routes.
I also spent time fixing couple of server tests, and cleaning up the SPA PR.

[quote = “zas”]
Last week, I helped to set up musicbrainz.eu in order to provide an alternative access to our services to people not having access to musicbrainz.org
I also reviewed and helped on various Picard PRs, we get some very interesting contributions these days
Plus usual user support, system upgrades, services restarts (mainly SOLR cloud 5 this week), and supervision
Also answered various questions about upcoming GSoC & Picard

I reviewed gsoc proposals again, reviewed some PRs and was working on some updates to our structure of the app. Not much other than that, pretty basic week

The week before Holi I mainly worked on Perl upgrade and Docker improvements for MB Server.
It’s already in our dev setup, I’m hoping to have beta running Perl 5.38.2 this week.
Otherwise, I helped zas with setting up the MB alternative he mentioned previously.
Thanks to lotooo for their patch to MB Docker, I just reviewed tested and merged, that helps with running an MBS mirror connected to remote instances of Postgres, RabbitMQ, and Redis.
Last, I upgraded the wiki server to Ubuntu Mantic/MediaWiki 1.39 (latest LTS) and fixed WikiDocs and logo display.
Plus a few patches, usual support, tickets triage.

I have had a pretty ridiculously busy week. Might be the first time in a long time that I have 0 hours logged for MeB in a week… I probably did some little stuff though?
Usually I am keeping up with matrix/IRC and forum chat, but I have been behind
Just a reminder not to hesitate to bug me if you need my eyes on something, or are waiting on something urgent.
Cool to see all the gsoc activity!

[jasje] last week i fixed up preferences in the app
to streamline and hide some boilerplate
[/quote]
[quote = “reosarevok”]
Last week I spent a fair amount of time updating MBS Javascript dependencies
(flow, babel, webpack, eslint)
Additionally, some small patches, a fair amount of code review
And also setting up a full docker MBS mirror with loaded sir indexes for yvanzo to know how big it actually gets nowadays
(during which I did support, banned some people, and continued working on the MBS Spanish translation)
The second half of this week I might take it easy

[rimskii] [mailed in late - happy birthday rimskii!] Hi! For this week, I continued my work on my PR with importing playlists. I got my feedback from monkey and lucifer, now Im planning to fix the issues that came in. Turns out there was some problems with importing, with playlists with a larger amount of tracks
Also, this week I finally planning to submit my last GSoC proposal, I will submit it to community first, then as soon as I can get my green flag, will post in official website. Feeling nervous, but I hope I will be able to figure it out.
Until that, My first goal is to finish my PR, that would be a huge achievement for me haha
