Reviews

@suvid

[mailed in] implemented import-files endpoint and logic for uploading files and checks for file size and extension. will implement background task very soon

@rob

[mailed in] [mayhem] Today I’ll be out playing with blinking lights, trying to trap musicians. : )
Last week was pretty short for me, since I was out Monday/Tuesday. The
rest of the week was spent on mentoring, PR review, MetaBrainz tasks and
just a little bit of programming on the new mapper.
Just adding a library to query postgres took me more than a day to get working since package management on C++ basically doesn’t exist. Super fun. As of
right now half of all the tough test cases that were submitted pass and I have a plan on how to fix the rest.

@ApeKattQuest_MonkeyPython

[Goemon] Closed INST-978
[INST-978: Improve tumbi aka ektar]
This week working on tuntuna aka chohokhode aka “still called ektara some places and making this really hard because names are dumb™”
almost finished with that
And in Bookbrainz I will be working on Work, have looked over the reoview on artist as well, For now monkey in charge there to prevent (more ) conflicts and such

@lucifer

last week, i worked on sample dumps for helping develop LB and LB spark locally.
reviewed a few misc PRs that were pending for a long time.
and answered some gsoc project questions for suvid, mamaanullah and holycow23.

@yvanzo

Last week, I mainly worked on releasing the new version of MusicBrainz Docker.
It now requires Docker Compose v2 and provides Solr 9 for mirrror’s search.
It settles the end of our support for Solr 7 to the end of the month.
See last week’s review and blog post for details.

@outsidecontext

not so much from last week, some ticket and forum support for picard, and some dependency management.
mainly I tried to get back to new plugin system and reviewed what we have there, will continue with that this week

@holycow23

This past week, I worked on building the frontend UI for some of the user statistics sections and created mock queries to simulate the data flow and test the components.
Thanks to lucifer for the data, will soon start testing with the real data and proceed with the actual implementation

@anshgoyal31

[ansh] Last week, I finished off reviewing BootStrap 5 migration, and Typescript upgrade PRs, and we’ve finally merged them.
Next, I worked on upgrading React Router to v7 to unlock more features, we’ll need in the future.
Since these PRs touched almost all the frontend files (197 to be precise) it was necessary to merge them before the GSoC coding period starts to avoid merge conflicts.
Apart from that, I also analysed every page that we have, and identified the elements which are causing the delay in page loading. I’ll start working on improving them now
And synced with holycow23 on his project.

@mr_monkey

[monkey] Last week I finished off the last remaining bits of the Bootstrap 5 migration (apart from one detail I missed and pushed to prod, to be fixed this week).
I also finished an old PR in progress to update to Typescript 5, which took a bit of fiddling to remove or tweak antiquated webpack configuration
I looked into our situation and options for LB-1630
[LB-1630: Dashboard for users with sporadic listens loads slowly]
I continued work with Goemon (IRC) on the BB user guide
And finally some PR reviews and general ticket massaging
And did a release for LB with a bunch of changes I made sure to test

@julian45

last week i finished moving apartments
and began expanding the SSO pilot a bit (i know monkey is in, and i owe reosarevok an invite)
did some updates/maintenance on servers involved in the pilot as well

@zas

Last week, I started to investigate solr9 caching possible improvements (along how to configure them)
Plus usual stuff, supervision, system upgrades, Picard PR reviews, user support, and that’s it for me.

@JadedBlueEyes

[jade] Not the most productive week, but I managed to get that refactor from last week in a workable place
So we’re now in a position to get more complicated features working in the template
I also set up HTTP servign and a little demo
However, in trying to get edits to work I discovered that my matrix server isn’t sending ‘related’ events down, so I’ve got to debug that before edits/reactions work properly
But, progress!

@kellnerd

It’s been a slow week for me as I am busy preparing a presentation about my current research project.
So I’ve only given a bit of Harmony support and created tickets for tasks that I may forget otherwise.

@reosarevok

Last week I was still mostly on holiday and visiting family in Spain - I did deal with emails and managed to do a little bit of code review and the like
Now back
And available normally again

@_Junaid

[fettuccinae] Last week ive worked on adding endpoints for notification system in MeB.
This week im going to work on adding authorization for these endpoints and add remaining required enpoints.

@m.amanullah7

[mamanullah7] Last week nothing more just compiled all reviews from monkey and aerozol and then i’ve finalised my ui and created table n sqlalchemy orm for funckwhale_servers after discussing with lucifer
created pr #3289 for my project
[Integrate music streaming from Funkwhale & Navidrome #3289]

@hemang-mishra

[Hemang Mishra] Last week I mostly worked on Navigation within onboarding screens integrating the new Nav3 API.
Also worked on a more flexible approach of handling runtime permissions in the Android app.
Will try to get the designs finalized and make PR for few screens in this week itself.

@bitmap

last week I fixed an issue causing an interruption in the incremental json dumps, and once those caught up, ran the schema change on the json dumps DB & triggered a new full dump
also fixed an error in the search-indexes-dump script and synced a couple missing dumps to FTP
after being down in the dumps, the solrcloud cert randomly expired late on tuesday so I hotfixed the MBS containers to get searches working until zas appeared
later in the week I was reviewing a couple musicbrainz-docker things, nuking more spammers, and working a lot on MBS-11889 which is blocking the React v19 upgrade
[MBS-11889: Refactor state handling in the external links editor]
was off on monday so was a short week
