v0.4.0

Version 0.4.0 is a functionally-equivalent rewrite of multi-scrobbler in Typescript with many internal updates and docker improvements.

Changes were made with an effort to prevent any functional breaking changes but there may still be changes required for Docker users and building the application for native installs.

Migrating from <0.4.0

Native (Local Installs)

• Minimum Node version has been changed to 18. (Tip: Use nvm to manage node version)
• Typescript is required to build multi-scrobbler but this is all taken care of with npm scripts:
  • npm install && npm run build && npm run start
• LOG_DIR is no longer used. Log files will now always be stored under CONFIG_DIR/logs

Docker

• The container still uses CONFIG_DIR as the configuration file directory BUT it now defaults to /config if CONFIG_DIR is not present. See the updated Docker install instructions for configuring this, if needed.
  • LOG_DIR is no longer used. Log files will now always be stored under CONFIG_DIR/logs
• If you run Docker on a Linux host (ubuntu, fedora, arch, etc...) it is highly recommended to set the environmental variables PUID and PGID in order to prevent file permission issues. See the Linux Host instructions in the installation docs.

Changelog

Features

• Rewritten using typescript 4.9.5
• Ingress-based source (Plex/Tautulli/Jellyfin) have better/more logging for initial connections to help with troubleshooting
• Improved jellyfin track play data standardization and logging
• Improved debug logging for Memory-Source based sources (subsonic)
• A docker-compose file is now provided
• Docker image updated
  • Updated base image
  • Simplified volumes and volume paths
  • Respects host file permissions using PUID and PGID env variables

Bug Fixes

• Fixed spotify authentication when using multiple-env based sources #63
• Fixed jellyfin source play data error #61 thanks @CPU-Blanc
• Fixed plex payload parsing and added additional debug logging #40

Documentation

• Added docker-compose usage, improved docker install instructions, and added TZ usage #55 thanks @iluvatyr
• Added missing jellyfin kitchensink usage and fixed documentation inconsistencies thank @sirjmann92
• Added auto-generated json schema for all source/clients/config along with schema explorer/editor/validator to the documentation
• Cleaned up example configs and added README pointing to config docs for additional info
  • Example configs are now copied to clean config dir on docker container start #8
• Added FAQ with connection/configuration issue basic troubleshooting
• Added github issue template

v0.3.11

Bug Fixes

• Provide defaults to express-session to prevent deprecation message
• Use a different data shape for new scrobbles on maloja >= 3.0.3
• Use length as track length property for all maloja versions

Documentation

• Tautulli payload duration => duration_sec @northys

Features

• Support maloja >= 3.0.0
• Add scrobble client request data to logging
• Add arm docker build @northys

v0.3.10

New

• Implemented Deezer source
• Added readiness check for all scrobble clients and implemented database-aware readiness check for Maloja to resolve issues with manual waiting surfaced from #37

Bug Fixes

• Don't invoke scrobble function if source has no plays (reduces log noise and api calls to scrobblers)

v0.3.9

New

• Implemented websockets for live log streaming by @christophernewton in #29
• Lots of small QOL updates to UI by @christophernewton
• Better indication of last.fm scrobble failure (when scrobble is ignored) -- show error code returned, if any
• Github Action to replace dockerhub auto-build

Bug Fixes

• Fix missing auth variable for status render #31
• Fix mishandled properties in last.fm scrobble request causing ignored track #33

v0.3.8

Changed

• Refactor source/client initialization so that a failed connection/setup does not cause the whole app to exit
• Add re-initialize action to web ui so that setup can be tried again in case of faiure

Fixed

• Fixed typo preventing using users in jellyfin configuration #27

Jellyfin Integration and Subsonic Improvements

New

• Add Jellyfin as a source #15

Changed

• Changed polling backoff behavior to use time-based backoff instead of interval count
• Implemented in-memory "recently played" logic for generic Source to better support scrobbling from sources without their own "recently played" source of truth or scrobbling behavior. Used for Subsonic to make scrobbling behavior more stable and on Jellyfin integration.

Fixed

• Fixed issue where Last.fm "now playing" entry returned from "recently played" broke last.fm scrobbling #22

Frontend Polish

New

The frontend has the same old functionality with a fresh new look thanks to @christophernewton !

v0.3.5

New

• Implemented request/polling retry behavior to make the app more resilient to temporary connection issues
  • maxPollRetries - in any source config, the # of times polling can automatically restart if an error occurs.
  • maxRequestRetries - in all client/source configs, # of http request retries for an action before error is thrown
  • retryMultiplier - in all client/source configs, retry delay multiplier (retry attempt * multiplier = # of seconds to wait before retrying
  • Log retry/poll attempts on error
• Added sourceDefaults and clientDefaults properties to config.json to allow setting defaults for all source/clients...
  • Supports the above new retry properties
