Torrent and usenet clients each download to their own folders
(not Soulseek's). SoulSync needs read access to those paths to
import the resulting files. Bare-metal setups work without
configuration; Docker setups need volume mounts; remote
downloader hosts need a network mount.
- webui/index.html: orange warning card on the Indexers &
Downloaders hero, listing the three deployment shapes
(bare-metal / Docker / remote) and what each needs.
- webui/static/style.css: ind-hero-warning rule set —
warning-tone palette (amber on dark glass) so the card
reads as advisory, not destructive. Inline ul + code
styling for the bullet list inside.
- docker-compose.yml: commented placeholder mounts under the
existing IMPORTANT block for /downloads/torrents and
/downloads/usenet. Same uncomment-and-edit pattern as the
existing slskd helper block. Documents the in-container path
must match what the torrent / usenet client reports as its
save_path.
The payoff for the previous five commits. Two new download
sources slot into the existing DownloadSourcePlugin contract,
backed by Prowlarr (search) + the torrent or usenet client
adapter (transfer) + archive_pipeline (post-extract walk). They
appear in the Download Source dropdown next to Soulseek / Tidal /
Lidarr / etc. and also participate in hybrid mode.
Pipeline (both plugins, mirror shape):
1. search(query) → ProwlarrClient.search filtered to the right
protocol, projected into TrackResult / AlbumResult shapes the
existing search UI already speaks. Filename field encodes the
indexer's download URL (or magnet URI for torrents) so
download() can recover it later.
2. download() → decodes URL, hands it to the active adapter
(qBittorrent / Transmission / Deluge for torrent; SABnzbd /
NZBGet for usenet), spawns a background poll thread that
tracks progress + reports the adapter-reported save_path.
3. On 'seeding' / 'completed' → archive_pipeline walks the save
directory, extracts any archives the downloader didn't
already unpack, picks the first audio file as the canonical
file_path. Matches the Lidarr client's single-track-pick
contract — picking which specific track to import happens in
post-processing.
- core/download_plugins/torrent.py: TorrentDownloadPlugin +
module-level helpers (_decode_filename, _guess_quality_from_title,
_parse_indexer_id_filter, _adapter_state_to_display, _row_to_status).
Uses get_active_torrent_adapter() so a settings change to the
client type takes effect without restart.
- core/download_plugins/usenet.py: UsenetDownloadPlugin —
parallel shape, reuses the torrent module's helpers. Different
enough states (no seeding, no magnet) to warrant its own class
but cheap to keep in lockstep.
- core/download_plugins/registry.py: register 'torrent' and
'usenet' plugins. Per the registry docstring this is the only
wiring point needed — the orchestrator picks them up
automatically via the iteration helpers.
- webui/index.html: 'Torrent Only (via Prowlarr)' + 'Usenet Only
(via Prowlarr)' added to the Download Source dropdown. New
redirect card (#prowlarr-source-redirect) explains that the
actual config lives on the Indexers & Downloaders tab —
shown whenever torrent or usenet is in the active source set.
- webui/static/settings.js: HYBRID_SOURCES gets two new entries
so hybrid mode can pick them up. updateDownloadSourceUI now
toggles the redirect card based on active sources.
- tests/test_torrent_usenet_plugins.py: 23 tests covering pure
helpers (filename encode/decode round-trip incl. magnet URIs,
quality guesser, state mapping), search projection logic
(protocol filter, drops without URLs, magnet-preferred-over-URL,
filename encoding, neutralised soulseek-specific score fields),
is_configured (both prowlarr + adapter required), finalize
(picks first audio file, errors on empty dir / missing save_path),
clear/get_all lifecycle, DownloadSourcePlugin protocol
conformance, and registry membership.
Shared helper the upcoming torrent and usenet download plugins
both compose against. Narrow surface — no matching, no tagging,
no library import. Just walks audio files and extracts archives
when needed.
Why a separate module: usenet downloaders (SABnzbd, NZBGet)
already auto-extract by default, and Lidarr's import pipeline
extracts before SoulSync sees the files. The only client that
sometimes leaves an archive behind is a torrent client when the
album was packed as a .rar — most music torrents ship loose but
not all. Centralising the walk + extract logic means both new
plugins can do the same thing, and a future direct-archive source
(zip download from a private site, etc.) plugs in for free.
- core/archive_pipeline.py:
- AUDIO_EXTENSIONS / ARCHIVE_EXTENSIONS constants (audio set
matches core/imports/file_ops.py quality_tiers).
- is_archive(path) handles compound extensions (.tar.gz etc).
- walk_audio_files(directory) — recursive, case-insensitive.
- find_archives_in_dir(directory) — top-level only (don't
surprise-extract sample / proof folders inside a torrent).
- extract_archive(archive_path, extract_to=None) — handles
.zip, .tar variants, .rar (optional rarfile dep), .7z
(optional py7zr dep). Optional deps warn-and-skip if absent.
- extract_all_in_dir + collect_audio_after_extraction — the
one-shot helpers the download plugins call after a download
completes.
- Path-traversal protection: every archive member's resolved
path must stay inside the destination — first violator aborts
the extract without writing anything. Applies to zip, tar,
and rar.
- tests/test_archive_pipeline.py: 21 tests covering the walker
(nested dirs, case-insensitive, ignores non-audio), archive
detection (compound extensions, missing files), zip extraction
+ path-traversal rejection, tar.gz + tar path-traversal,
multi-archive directory, mixed-loose-and-archived collection.
- core/torrent_clients/transmission.py: rename unused loop var
`attempt` to `_attempt` in the session-id renegotiation loop
(B007 — loop var not used in body).
- core/image_cache.py: log the cleanup exception instead of
swallowing it silently (S110 — bare try/except/pass). debug
level since a failed tmp unlink is non-fatal; the outer
``raise`` still propagates the original error.
Full ruff sweep clean.
Restructure the Indexers & Downloaders tab to mirror the
Paths & Organization / Post-Processing / Library Preferences
pattern on the Library page — each subsystem (Indexers / Torrent
Client / Usenet Client) gets its own collapsible section header
with a status dot, hint, and animated arrow.
Visual cues borrowed from Lidarr but rendered in SoulSync's
existing dark-glass theme:
- Intro hero card at the top of the tab with a 1-2-3 flow:
Indexers find releases → Downloader fetches → SoulSync imports.
Accent-color stepper pills + sub-copy summarising what's
optional vs required.
- Status dot in each section header — grey 'unknown' before
testing, green after Test Connection succeeds, red on failure.
Driven by _setIndStatusDot() helper called from each test
handler. Soft glow on the active states.
- Per-service service-title color accents matching existing
spotify-title / tidal-title pattern: prowlarr-title (orange,
Prowlarr brand), torrent-title (sky blue, qBit family),
usenet-title (violet).
- Indexer list cards replace the inline-emoji list — proper
protocol badges (Torrent vs Usenet pill), monospace id chip,
privacy tag, dimmed appearance when the indexer is disabled
in Prowlarr.
- Indexers section starts open; Torrent + Usenet start collapsed
since most users only configure one protocol.
No behavior changes — same fields, same endpoints, same save
flow. Pure visual restructure of the panels added in the previous
three commits.
54 mocked unit tests pinning the parse + dispatch behavior of the
new indexer and downloader plumbing. No live services required —
HTTP is mocked at the requests-library boundary, RPC is mocked at
the _rpc_sync helper.
Coverage:
- core/prowlarr_client.py: parse_indexer / parse_result with
category-shape variants, search query encodes repeated
``categories=`` and ``indexerIds=`` keys, check_connection hits
the right endpoint with the right header.
- core/torrent_clients/qbittorrent.py: login sends the Referer
CSRF header, login failure surfaces, parse_status normalises
field names, eta <= 0 becomes None.
- core/torrent_clients/transmission.py: bare host URL is rewritten
to /transmission/rpc, 409 + X-Transmission-Session-Id is
renegotiated and the retry carries the new id, torrent-add
surfaces torrent-duplicate hashes, eta -1 becomes None.
- core/torrent_clients/deluge.py: requires password to be configured,
magnet vs HTTP URL hit different RPC methods, progress is
normalised from 0-100 to 0-1.
- core/usenet_clients/sabnzbd.py: parse_timeleft handles HH:MM:SS
and the MM:SS fallback, queue + history merge into a single
get_all, addurl vs addfile are dispatched on the input type.
- core/usenet_clients/nzbget.py: requires URL + username + password,
mb_value prefers the 64-bit size split over the legacy MB field,
add_nzb base64-encodes raw bytes, GroupFinalDelete vs GroupDelete
is picked by the delete_files flag, non-numeric job IDs fail fast.
- state mapping tables for all five adapters get explicit assertions
so future refactors can't silently lose a native state value.
WHATS_NEW entry covers the test addition; no VERSION_MODAL_SECTIONS
entry — internal infrastructure, not user-facing.
Third commit in the torrent + usenet rollout. SoulSync now also
speaks the two big usenet downloaders through a sibling adapter
contract that mirrors the torrent adapter set. All three layers are
now stood up — Prowlarr finds releases, the torrent adapter and the
usenet adapter each know how to ship work to the underlying client.
A later commit wires Prowlarr search results through the adapters
and through the archive-extract-match pipeline.
- core/usenet_clients/base.py: UsenetClientAdapter Protocol +
UsenetStatus dataclass. Uniform state set covers usenet-specific
phases (queued / downloading / extracting / verifying / repairing /
completed / failed / paused).
- core/usenet_clients/__init__.py: adapter_for_type factory +
get_active_adapter that reads usenet_client.type each call.
- core/usenet_clients/sabnzbd.py: REST adapter. ?apikey=... auth,
mode=addurl and mode=addfile (multipart) for add_nzb. Reads both
the active queue and the recent history so completed / failed
jobs surface in get_all. Parses SAB's HH:MM:SS ``timeleft`` into
seconds.
- core/usenet_clients/nzbget.py: JSON-RPC adapter. HTTP Basic auth,
``append`` method for add_nzb (auto-detects URL vs base64 NZB),
``editqueue`` with GroupPause/GroupResume/GroupDelete/GroupFinalDelete
for state changes. Reads NZBGet's 64-bit split size fields
(FileSizeHi + FileSizeLo) preferentially over the legacy
FileSizeMB aggregate.
- core/connection_test.py: 'usenet_client' branch picks the right
adapter, runs check_connection, surfaces per-client error
messages (different credentials needed).
- config/settings.py: usenet_client.{type, url, api_key, username,
password, category} defaults + both api_key and password marked
encrypted-at-rest.
- web_server.py: 'usenet_client' added to the /api/settings POST
allow-list.
- webui/index.html: new Usenet Client panel on the Indexers &
Downloaders tab. Type picker swaps the credential fields between
API-key (SABnzbd) and username+password (NZBGet).
- webui/static/settings.js: load/save wiring, updateUsenetClientUI
for the credential field swap, testUsenetClientConnection.
- webui/static/helper.js: WHATS_NEW + VERSION_MODAL_SECTIONS entry.
Second commit in the torrent + usenet rollout. SoulSync now speaks
three different BitTorrent client APIs through one uniform adapter
contract — picks the active client by config and dispatches the same
verbs to whichever backend the user uses. Each adapter handles its
own auth quirk (qBit cookie + CSRF Referer, Transmission session-id
renegotiation, Deluge JSON-RPC session) and maps native state
strings onto a shared 7-value set so the rest of the app stays
client-agnostic.
- core/torrent_clients/base.py: TorrentClientAdapter Protocol +
TorrentStatus dataclass. Eight verbs: is_configured, check_connection,
add_torrent (URL/magnet), add_torrent_file (raw bytes), get_status,
get_all, remove, pause, resume.
- core/torrent_clients/__init__.py: adapter_for_type factory +
get_active_adapter that reads torrent_client.type each call so
settings changes take effect without restart.
- core/torrent_clients/qbittorrent.py: WebUI v2 adapter. Cookie auth
via /api/v2/auth/login, transparent 403 re-login, Referer header
to satisfy qBit's CSRF guard. add_torrent returns the just-added
hash via /torrents/info sort=added_on (qBit's add endpoint doesn't
echo the hash).
- core/torrent_clients/transmission.py: RPC adapter. Auto-resolves
bare host URLs to /transmission/rpc, handles the 409 + new
X-Transmission-Session-Id renegotiation transparently, accepts
HTTP basic auth. add_torrent_file base64-encodes payload per spec.
- core/torrent_clients/deluge.py: Deluge 2.x JSON-RPC adapter.
Password-only auth, distinguishes magnet vs HTTP URL at the RPC
method layer, applies category via Label plugin (best-effort —
label plugin is optional).
- core/connection_test.py: 'torrent_client' branch picks the right
adapter, runs check_connection, surfaces a per-client error
message.
- config/settings.py: torrent_client.{type, url, username, password,
category, save_path} defaults + torrent_client.password in the
encrypted-at-rest secrets list.
- web_server.py: 'torrent_client' added to the /api/settings POST
allow-list so saved config persists.
- webui/index.html: new Torrent Client panel on the Indexers &
Downloaders tab — client-type dropdown, URL, username, password,
category, optional save path, Test Connection.
- webui/static/settings.js: load/save wiring + testTorrentClientConnection.
- webui/static/helper.js: WHATS_NEW + VERSION_MODAL_SECTIONS entry.
First commit toward torrent and usenet download sources. Prowlarr is
the indexer manager component of the *arr stack — it exposes Usenet
and torrent indexers behind a single Newznab-style API so SoulSync
doesn't have to integrate each indexer individually. This commit
wires up Prowlarr as a search-only source; the torrent and usenet
download client adapters land in the next commits and plug into
this search surface.
- core/prowlarr_client.py: sync-backed async client. is_configured,
check_connection, get_indexers, search by Newznab category. Music
category constants (3000 all / 3010 MP3 / 3040 lossless / etc.).
- core/connection_test.py: 'prowlarr' branch hits /api/v1/system/status
for the Test Connection button.
- web_server.py: GET /api/prowlarr/indexers returns the live indexer
list (id, name, protocol, enabled, privacy). Settings POST allow-list
now accepts 'prowlarr' so saved config persists.
- config/settings.py: prowlarr.{url, api_key, indexer_ids} defaults
plus prowlarr.api_key in the encrypted-at-rest secrets list.
- webui/index.html: new "Indexers & Downloaders" tab on Settings with
the Prowlarr panel (URL, API key, Test, Refresh Indexer List,
optional indexer-ID allowlist).
- webui/static/settings.js: load/save wiring, testProwlarrConnection,
loadProwlarrIndexers (HTML-escapes user-supplied indexer names).
- webui/static/helper.js: WHATS_NEW 2.6.0 unreleased block plus a
curated VERSION_MODAL_SECTIONS entry.
Detect JSON decode-like exceptions from Tidal's token endpoint and return a safer, more actionable error message. Adds a _looks_like_json_decode_error helper and special-cases that error in check_device_auth to log the non-JSON response and advise disabling VPN/proxy/network filtering and restarting SoulSync. A test was added to ensure the user-facing message does not leak the raw exception text while still returning an error status. Other errors continue to fall back to the existing behavior.
Prepare 2.5.8 release: update the workflow default version_tag and the app _SOULSYNC_BASE_VERSION to 2.5.8, add WHATS_NEW entries for 2.5.8 (fix blank artist pages for Python/git-pull installs, fix premature download completion before post-processing, add disk-backed artwork cache with SQLite, and add pre-download duration tolerancing for strict sources), and update the whats-new fallback to 2.5.8.
Add duration tolerance logic and pre-download rejection for structured sources (tidal, qobuz, hifi, deezer_dl, amazon) when candidate duration deviates beyond allowed tolerance. Introduces helper functions _duration_tolerance_seconds and _duration_mismatch_exceeds_integrity_tolerance and uses resolve_duration_tolerance from core.imports.file_integrity. Log and skip candidates that would fail post-processing integrity checks to avoid wasted downloads. Update tests to include matching engine stub and new cases covering rejection and acceptance based on duration tolerance; also adjust imports and test fixtures.
Add a disk-backed image cache with hashed browser URLs, SQLite metadata, size/type validation, stale fallback, and per-image fetch locking. Route normalized artwork through /api/image-cache while keeping /api/image-proxy as a compatibility shim, and align browser max-age with the image cache TTL. Add focused tests for cache behavior and image URL normalization.
Do not mark a monitored transfer as successful as soon as slskd reports completion. The monitor now only submits the post-processing worker; that worker reports the real success or failure after finding, verifying, and importing the file. If post-processing cannot be scheduled, mark the task failed and release the batch slot. Add a regression test for the premature success path.
Parse /artist-detail/<source>/<id> during legacy initial navigation so Python/git-pull installs without a fresh React handoff bundle still call the existing artist detail loader instead of leaving the shell blank.
Patch bump for the post-2.5.6 fix cycle. Nine entries shipped since the
2.5.6 release moved into a fresh 2.5.7 WHATS_NEW block — original 2.5.6
release notes left intact.
Touched:
- web_server.py: `_SOULSYNC_BASE_VERSION` 2.5.6 -> 2.5.7
- webui/static/helper.js: new `'2.5.7'` block with date marker + the
nine shipped fixes; fallback default in `_getLatestWhatsNewVersion`
bumped to '2.5.7'
- .github/workflows/docker-publish.yml: workflow_dispatch description
+ default tag both bumped to 2.5.7
What's in 2.5.7 (all post-2.5.6 cycle work):
- MB manual search recall fix (strict -> bare-query)
- MB album-detail 404 fix (invalid cover-art-archive include)
- Fix popup MBID paste field (#647)
- MB added to Fix popup auto-search cascade (#655)
- Docker /app/Stream pre-baked for rootless Docker (#656)
- slskd unreachable log spam suppression (#649)
- MB 'Other' release-groups now visible in discography (#650)
- Quarantined-source dedup on auto-wishlist cycles (#652)
- Unknown Artist Fixer ImportError fix (#646)
The cancel-trigger diagnostic logging commit (a685f9ca) is also in
2.5.7 but isn't user-facing so no WHATS_NEW entry.
Diagnostic-only change for issue Technodude reported: Tidal sync-playlist
downloads getting mass-cancelled mid-flight with no clear cause in the
logs. App.log shows ~91 second gaps between Tidal download start and
cancel — matches the monitor's 90s queue-timeout exactly — but none of
the monitor's WARNING log lines fire, so the trigger is ambiguous
between five `_should_retry_task` paths, three web_server cancel paths,
and the API endpoints.
Added a single `[CancelTrigger:<label>]` INFO log line immediately
before every `download_orchestrator.cancel_download(...)` call so the
next log dump pins down which path is firing.
Labels (grep-able, prefix tells the file, suffix tells the trigger):
monitor.not_in_live_transfers_90s
monitor.errored_state_retry
monitor.queued_state_timeout
monitor.stuck_at_0pct_timeout
monitor.unknown_state_no_progress_timeout
candidates.worker_cancelled_during_download
web.orphan_cleanup
web.cancel_download_task
web.atomic_cancel_v2
api.manual_cancel_single
api.public_cancel
The monitor's `deferred_ops` tuple grew from 3 elements to 4 (added
trigger label as last element). The dispatch loop unpacks both legacy
and new shapes so the change is backward-compatible for any in-flight
ops mid-deploy.
Zero behavior change. 367 download tests still green. WHATS_NEW left
untouched — diagnostic only, not user-facing.
After ship: ask Technodude to re-run the same sync playlist scenario,
attach the new app.log, grep `[CancelTrigger:` lines for the trigger
context, then write the actual fix.
The "Fix Unknown Artists" repair job crashed on every run with:
ImportError: cannot import name '_build_path_from_template' from
'core.repair_jobs.library_reorganize'
Commit ca5c9316 ("Rewrite Library Reorganize job to delegate to per-
album planner") moved the private path-builder + quality-string
helpers out of `core.repair_jobs.library_reorganize` and into the
import pipeline. `unknown_artist_fixer.py:163` still imported them
from the old module — its scan() defers the imports to avoid pulling
web_server's Flask boot into the test harness, so the broken target
only surfaces at runtime when the user actually runs the job. The
tool was completely unrunnable.
Re-wired the deferred imports:
core.repair_jobs.library_reorganize._build_path_from_template
-> core.imports.paths.get_file_path_from_template_raw
core.repair_jobs.library_reorganize._get_audio_quality
-> core.imports.file_ops.get_audio_quality_string
Both replacements have identical signatures + return shapes (verified
by inspecting library_reorganize's pre-refactor implementations vs
the import-pipeline equivalents):
get_file_path_from_template_raw(template: str, context: dict)
-> tuple[folder: str, filename_base: str]
get_audio_quality_string(file_path: str) -> str
No call-site changes needed beyond the import target.
2 new regression tests in `tests/test_unknown_artist_fixer.py`:
test_deferred_path_imports_resolve — runs the same import
statements scan() runs, so the NEXT refactor that moves these
helpers fails CI rather than reaching the user.
test_deferred_path_helper_shape_matches_fixer_usage — pins the
`(folder, filename_base)` 2-tuple contract the fixer's unpack
relies on. Catches return-shape drift even when the import
target stays valid.
Audited every consumer of `core.repair_jobs.library_reorganize` —
only one stale import (this file). The test suite covers the only
production caller.
5 fixer tests pass (3 existing + 2 new regression guards).
When a file failed AcoustID verification and got quarantined, the next
auto-wishlist cycle would search for the same track, the deterministic
quality picker would re-select the same (uploader, filename) source,
re-download it, and re-quarantine it. Users woke up to hundreds of
duplicate .quarantined entries from a single bad upload — same source
URL repeatedly, byte-for-byte identical files.
Root cause: `SoulseekClient.filter_results_by_quality_preference` ranks
candidates by quality + bitrate density only. Quarantine history wasn't
consulted, so a high-bitrate FLAC upload with a wrong-track AcoustID
fingerprint kept winning the picker against every other candidate.
Fix shape:
- New helper `core/imports/quarantine.py::get_quarantined_source_keys`
reads every quarantine sidecar's `context.original_search_result`
and returns the set of `(username, filename)` tuples for O(1)
membership checks. Sidecars missing the context field (legacy thin
sidecars written pre-Feb 2026, or orphaned files) and corrupt JSON
are skipped silently — defensive against transient FS / encoding
issues.
- `SoulseekClient._drop_quarantined_sources` runs the membership
filter against incoming TrackResults, drops matches, logs a single
INFO line with the skip count. Called first inside
`filter_results_by_quality_preference` so all four callers
(search-and-download, master worker, validation, orchestrator)
benefit transparently.
- Approving or deleting a quarantine entry removes its sidecar, so
the dedup key disappears from the set on the next search — gives
the user a way to opt back in to a previously-quarantined source
without restarting the app.
7 helper tests cover: missing dir, empty dir, well-formed sidecars
collected as tuples, legacy sidecars skipped, empty source fields
skipped (so empty-string keys can't accidentally drop unrelated
results), corrupt JSON tolerated, duplicate quarantines collapse.
5 integration tests pin: clean candidates pass, known-bad candidates
drop, missing quarantine dir returns input unchanged, filesystem
errors swallowed (defensive), full `filter_results_by_quality_preference`
runs the dedup BEFORE the quality picker — so a high-quality
quarantined source can't win on bitrate.
692 existing download + import tests still green. Cosmetic surface
of the fix is invisible — same UX as today when no quarantine entries
exist; loop only kicks in once a sidecar has been written.
Out of scope: bulk-select / multi-delete UI for the quarantine tab —
S-Bryce mentioned this as a separate pain point in the issue, but
it's its own UX work, not a one-commit drive-by.
S-Bryce reported that for some artists (Vocaloid producers, JP indie
acts, niche Western indie) the artist detail page was missing whole
release-groups visible on musicbrainz.org. Downloaded tracks from
those release-groups appeared in artist track counts but were not
bound to any visible album / single card — orphan "ghost" tracks the
user couldn't browse to.
Two duplicated bugs fed each other:
1. `core/musicbrainz_search.py` browsed MB release-groups with
`release_types=['album', 'ep', 'single']`. MB's primary-type
vocabulary is {Album, Single, EP, Broadcast, Other} — music
videos, one-off web releases, and broadcast singles use Other.
Pre-fix the filter dropped them at the API layer.
2. Three sites duplicated the same "raw primary-type → internal
album_type" mapping with slightly different vocabularies and all
silently defaulted unknown values (including 'Other') to 'album':
core/musicbrainz_search.py `_map_release_type`
core/metadata/types.py inline `{single:single, ep:ep}.get(...)`
core/metadata/cache.py Deezer-specific record_type guard
Letting Other through the filter without a real mapper would have
placed music videos in the Albums view alongside LPs — visually
misleading.
Fix shape:
- New `core/metadata/release_type.py` — single canonical mapper
consumed by every provider's raw→Album projection. Knows the full
MB vocabulary including 'other' and 'broadcast'; routes both into
the singles bucket since they're functionally single-track
releases. Compilation secondary-type override preserved (MB's
canonical Greatest-Hits pattern is `primary=Album,
secondary=[Compilation]`).
- `core/musicbrainz_search.py` `_map_release_type` becomes a thin
alias for the new helper so the six internal call sites stay
intact. API filter gains 'other'.
- `core/metadata/types.py` Album projection drops its inline mini-
mapper and calls the canonical helper. Now also handles the
compilation secondary-type override it was previously missing.
- The Deezer-specific cache.py guard stays as-is — Deezer's
record_type vocabulary is closed (album|single|ep), not affected
by this issue.
Verified end-to-end against MB for S-Bryce's artist (`46196b9c-affa-
4616-b53b-e967c8bd70e0`, inabakumori): pre-fix returned 22 release-
groups; post-fix returns 27, with the 5 extra all landing in the
Singles section with album_type='single' as intended.
23 new unit tests pin the mapper contract (case-insensitive primary
types, compilation secondary override, Other/Broadcast → single,
unknown → album default preserved, defensive empty/None inputs).
2 new tests in test_musicbrainz_search pin the API filter inclusion
of 'other' and the round-trip into the Singles bucket. All 516
existing metadata tests still green — refactor leaves historical
behaviour for {album, ep, single, compilation} unchanged.
When slskd_url is configured but the host is unreachable (slskd not
running, wrong port, host.docker.internal not resolving), the frontend's
/api/downloads/status polling fanned out to every download plugin
including Soulseek. soulseek_client._make_request hit a DNS / connect
failure on each poll and logged it at ERROR. Result: one
"Cannot connect to host host.docker.internal:5030" log line every
~2-3 seconds for the entire duration of any download — visible spam
even when the user wasn't using Soulseek at all.
Caught aiohttp.ClientConnectorError explicitly in both _make_request
and _make_direct_request. First failure emits one WARNING with
actionable context (start slskd, or clear soulseek.slskd_url if you
don't use Soulseek). Subsequent failures demote to DEBUG. The
_last_unreachable_logged flag resets on any successful (200/201/204)
response so a later outage warns again — suppression is per-outage,
not per-process-lifetime. Same shape as the existing _last_401_logged
suppression for auth failures.
The architectural gap (status polling fans out to soulseek even when
the user has soulseek disabled in their active download sources) is
intentionally left for a follow-up. The plugin-iteration code lives
in core/download_engine/engine.py and core/download_orchestrator.py;
threading a "skip-when-not-active" gate through every caller is a
bigger refactor than this user-facing log cleanup warrants. The
WARNING-once message tells the user what to do in the meantime.
5 new pinning tests cover the suppression contract: connection error
returns None (not raises), first failure WARNs + sets flag, repeats
stay quiet, successful response resets the flag, _make_direct_request
follows the same pattern, and non-connection exceptions still log at
ERROR so real bugs aren't hidden behind the new suppression.
`core/streaming/prepare.py:94-97` creates /app/Stream lazily via
`os.makedirs(stream_folder, exist_ok=True)` on first playback. Under
standard Docker this works because the container's `root` writes /app
without restriction. Under rootless Docker / Podman the in-container
soulsync UID maps to a host UID that can't write to /app, so the
mkdir silently fails and the streaming "Play" flow errors out with
no obvious user-facing cause.
Same root cause + same fix shape as the May 2026 /app/Staging restart-
loop fix — pre-bake the directory at image build time (when the layer
is owned by root), and thread it through every entrypoint.sh spot that
touches the canonical app-dir list.
Not added to VOLUME — /app/Stream is a transient single-file cache
(cleared on every new playback), no persistence value.
Touched lines:
- Dockerfile: mkdir + chown line that pre-bakes runtime dirs.
- entrypoint.sh: the recursive chown gated on UID change, the always-runs
mkdir + chown, and the writability audit loop.
No code change. Streaming tests pass unchanged (they use tmp_path, not
/app/Stream).
The Fix Track Match modal's auto-search was hardcoded to query only
Spotify -> Deezer -> iTunes, ignoring MusicBrainz entirely — even for
users with MB set as their primary metadata source. MB-niche recordings
(canonical entries with diacritics, fringe / non-mainstream tracks that
the commercial catalogues don't carry) had no chance.
Wiring:
- New `MusicBrainzSearchClient.search_tracks_with_artist(track, artist,
limit)` for surfaces that already have title + artist split. Uses MB's
bare-query mode (strict=False) — diacritic-folded, alias/sortname
indexed — same recall rationale as the earlier MBID-paste endpoint.
- New route `GET /api/musicbrainz/search_tracks` mirrors the existing
/api/{spotify,itunes,deezer}/search_tracks endpoints exactly: accepts
`track`+`artist` (or legacy `query`) + `limit`, returns
`{tracks: [{id, name, artists, album, duration_ms, image_url, source}]}`.
Applies the same `core.metadata.relevance.rerank_tracks` pass Deezer /
iTunes use, which is critical because MB's free-text scoring weighs
title-text matches heavily and would otherwise rank cover / tribute
recordings above the canonical version.
- `_search_tracks_text` gains a `min_score` parameter. The cascade path
passes 20 (vs the enhanced-search-tab default of 80) so MB recordings
whose title doesn't literally contain the artist name still enter the
candidate pool — without that, "Army of Me" + "Bjork" only surfaces
the HIRS Collective cover (score 100) and drops Björk's canonical
recording (score 28). The rerank pass then surfaces Björk by artist
match. Verified against real MB API: pre-fix returned only the cover;
post-fix top 5 are all Björk.
- Fix popup `allSources` array (wishlist-tools.js) gets MB appended.
The existing `activeIdx` reorder logic moves MB to the front when
it's the active primary; otherwise MB sits last (1 req/sec rate
limit makes it the slowest source).
7 new unit tests on the adapter: bare-query mode is used, missing
artist falls back to None (drops AND-clause), empty inputs short-circuit,
low-score candidates are kept for rerank to handle, default strict +
default min_score behaviour preserved for the existing search-tab path,
client errors are swallowed so the cascade falls through to the next
source.
Discogs intentionally absent — Discogs has no track-level search API
(see core/discogs_client.py:575 — returns []). Adding a Flask endpoint
that always returns empty would be a permanent no-op.
Commit 478bcc5d (`fix(amazon): search albums/artists and track numbers
for t2tunes`) switched `search_albums` to query `types=track` and derive
Album objects from the album metadata on each track hit — Amazon's
album-type query is broken upstream. The matching test was left asserting
the old "filter out track hits → return []" behavior and has been failing
in CI ever since.
Rewritten to assert the current intended behavior: track hits yield
distinct albums by album ASIN, with the artist credit + name preserved.
No code change.

Power-user escape hatch on the Discovery Fix Track Match modal — when
fuzzy auto-search ranks the wrong recording among many same-title
versions (10 remasters, live cuts, alt sessions), paste the MusicBrainz
recording URL or bare UUID into the new field and resolve straight to
that record.
Layout:
- Shape adapter `get_recording_flat(mbid)` lives in
`core/musicbrainz_search.py` next to existing `get_track_details`.
Returns the flat Fix-popup track shape (artists as `string[]`,
album as string, single `image_url`) — distinct from the
Spotify-shaped nested dict `get_track_details` returns.
- New route `GET /api/musicbrainz/recording/<mbid>` is a thin wrapper:
validates MBID format with an anchored UUID regex, calls the adapter,
returns 400 / 404 / 200 with no inline shape massaging.
- Frontend `parseMusicBrainzMbid()` lives in `shared-helpers.js` —
pure URL/UUID parser, reusable from other surfaces (failed-MB cache,
manual match) without duplication.
- Fix modal HTML gets one new input row + button; existing search row
and result render pipeline are untouched. New `lookupDiscoveryFixByMbid()`
fetches the endpoint and feeds the single result through the existing
`renderDiscoveryFixResults` -> confirm-dialog -> match pipeline, so MB-
paste matches go through the exact same selection flow as auto-search
results.
- Enter-key bound on the MBID input via a separate handler ref so its
lifecycle matches the search-input handlers without conflating the
two submit targets.
7 unit tests cover the adapter: happy path, empty/None MBID, MB returns
None, recording-without-release (empty album), multi-artist credits,
includes-list contract, and client-error swallow.
Out of scope: the Fix popup's fuzzy cascade is still hardcoded to
spotify/deezer/itunes regardless of which primary source the user has
configured. Adding MB to that cascade (when MB is the active primary)
is a separate concern.
Two bugs surfacing on the Fix popup and enhanced-search MB tab:
1. Strict Lucene phrase queries (`recording:"X" AND artist:"Y"`) killed
recall on user-facing manual search — diacritics ("Bjork" vs canonical
"Björk"), bracketed suffixes like "(Live)", and any AND-clause
mismatch returned zero results. Added `strict: bool = True` param to
`search_release` / `search_recording`; when False, sends a bare query
joining title + artist so MB hits alias/sortname indexes with
diacritic folding. `/api/musicbrainz/search` (Fix popup) and
`core/library/service_search.py` (service tabs) now pass strict=False.
Enrichment workers stay on strict mode — precision matters there
because they auto-accept the top hit above a confidence threshold.
2. Every MB album click was silently 404-ing — `_render_release_as_album`
passed `cover-art-archive` as an MB `inc` param, but it's not a valid
include for the /release resource (MB rejects with 400). The CAA flags
come back on every release response by default, so dropping the bad
include preserves the image-scope picker logic intact.
t2tunes uses HTTP 400 for transient Amazon-side failures instead of 5xx.
The first API call in a fresh session hit this every time, so album and
artist searches always failed while the track search (called 0.5 s later)
got through.
- _get_json: retry up to 3 times (1 s, 2 s backoff) on t2tunes-specific
400 "Failed to search" responses
- All search_raw calls switched from types="track,album" to types="track"
— t2tunes album-type queries are currently broken server-side; albums
and artists are now derived from track result metadata instead
- search_albums: drop is_album filter, extract album fields from track hits
- get_album_tracks: fall back to stream index (1-based) when t2tunes tags
omit trackNumber, preventing every track landing as track 01
If history.back() navigated away from artist-detail entirely (e.g. to
library), _artistDetailGoingBack stayed true. The next forward artist
navigation would then pop the label stack instead of pushing, causing
the back-button label to show plain Back instead of the correct page.
Guard the pop with currentPage === artist-detail; clear the flag
unconditionally in the else branch.
PR #644 removed the back-button label logic as collateral when removing
the full originStack. The label is independent of the stack — restore it
without restoring the old click-handler navigation (browser history handles
that now).
- _artistDetailLabelStack: module-level stack of {type:'page',pageId} or
{type:'artist',name} entries, pushed on forward navigation, popped on back
- _artistDetailGoingBack flag: set by the back button click handler so
navigateToArtistDetail knows to pop instead of push when called by the
React route on browser-history navigation
- Backfill currentArtistName from the API response so URL-driven entries
(which pass '' for name) have real names on state before the next similar-
artist navigation pushes them onto the stack
- No-history fallback navigates to the recorded origin page
URL-driven routing (PR #644) no longer passes the display name as a query
param to the artist-detail endpoint. The source-only detail builder fell back
to artist_id when artist_name was empty, surfacing the raw MBID as the page
title for MusicBrainz artists.
Two fixes in build_source_only_artist_detail:
- Drop the artist_id fallback in resolved_name so an MBID can never become
the display name
- Add a musicbrainz elif branch (matching the Spotify/Deezer/iTunes pattern)
that calls MusicBrainzSearchClient.get_artist() to resolve the real name
and genres from the MBID when no name is provided
- avoid calling buildArtistDetailPath when a similar artist has no usable id
- render a disabled bubble instead so empty MusicBrainz IDs do not crash the panel
- no need for a separate effect since we can use the existing one
- no need to cancel the similar artists query upon entering, since the
unregister callback already does it
- replace click-driven artist-detail hops with semantic links
- keep SPA transitions via shell bridge interception for /artist-detail/:source/:id
- drop legacy page helper wrappers and dead bridge plumbing
- expose a shell-bridge cancel primitive for similar-artists loading
- stop stale similar-artists streams from the artist-detail route lifecycle
- keep the legacy loader abort-only and make abort logs page-agnostic
- update bridge and route tests for the new cleanup path
- add a canonical TanStack route for artist-detail and keep the legacy page as the renderer target
- expose page-level artist-detail navigation on the shell bridge for legacy callers
- remove artist-detail-specific routing, origin stack, and back-label logic from the shared shell helpers
- add canonical /artist-detail/:source/:id TanStack route
- hand the legacy page off through the shell bridge
- remove artist-detail branching from generic shell helpers
