Stripped 4,200+ emoji characters from print(), logger calls across
39 Python files. Logs are now clean text — easier to grep, more
professional, no encoding issues on terminals without Unicode support.
Seasonal config icons preserved for UI display.
YOUR ARTISTS (major feature):
- Aggregates liked/followed artists from Spotify, Tidal, Last.fm, Deezer
- Matches to ALL metadata sources (Spotify, iTunes, Deezer, Discogs)
- DB-first matching: library → watchlist → cache → API search (capped)
- Image backfill from Spotify API for artists missing artwork
- Carousel on Discover page with 20 random matched artists
- View All modal with search, source filters, sort, pagination
- Artist info modal: hero image, matched source badges, genres, bio,
listeners/plays from Last.fm, watchlist toggle, view discography
- Auto-refresh with loading state on first load, polls until ready
- Deduplication by normalized name across all services
DEEZER OAUTH:
- Full OAuth flow: /auth/deezer + /deezer/callback
- Settings UI on Connections tab (App ID, Secret, Redirect URI)
- Token stored encrypted, auto-included in API calls
- get_user_favorite_artists() for liked artists pool
SERVICE CLIENTS:
- Spotify: added user-follow-read scope + get_followed_artists()
- Tidal: get_favorite_artists() with V2/V1 fallback
- Last.fm: get_authenticated_username() + get_user_top_artists()
FAILED MB LOOKUPS MANAGER:
- Manage button on Cache Health modal
- Browse/filter/search all failed MusicBrainz lookups
- Search MusicBrainz directly and manually match entries
- Optimized cache health queries (11 → 4 consolidated)
- Dashboard cache stats now poll every 15s
EXPLORER IMPROVEMENTS:
- Discover button on undiscovered playlist cards
- Status badges: explored/wishlisted/downloaded/ready
- Auto-refresh during discovery via polling
- Redesigned controls: prominent Explore button, icons
BUG FIXES:
- Fix album artist splitting on collab albums (collab mode fed
album-level artists instead of per-track)
- Fix cover.jpg not moving during library reorganize (post-pass sweep)
- Fix cover.jpg missing when album detection takes fallback path
- Fix wishlist auto-processing toast spam (was firing every 2s)
- Fix media player collapsing on short viewports
- Fix watchlist rate limiting (~90% fewer API calls)
- Configurable spotify.min_api_interval setting
- Better Retry-After header extraction
- Encrypt Last.fm and Discogs credentials at rest
- Add $discnum template variable (unpadded disc number)
- New core/api_call_tracker.py — centralized tracker with rolling 60s
timestamps (speedometer) and 24h minute-bucketed history (charts)
- Instrument all 9 service client rate_limited decorators to record
actual API calls with per-endpoint tracking for Spotify
- 1-second WebSocket push loop for real-time gauge updates
- Modern radial arc gauges with service brand colors, glowing active
arc, endpoint dot, 0/max scale labels, smooth CSS transitions
- Click any gauge to open detail modal with 24h call history chart
(Canvas 2D, HiDPI, gradient fill, grid lines, danger zone band)
- Spotify modal shows per-endpoint history lines with color legend
and live per-endpoint breakdown bars
- Rate limited state indicator — blinking red badge with countdown
timer appears on gauge card when Spotify ban is active
- REST endpoint GET /api/rate-monitor/history/<service> for chart data
- Responsive grid layout (5 cols desktop, 3 tablet, 2 phone)
The metadata-only optimization broke two things:
1. Cards showed 0 tracks because tracks were no longer in the listing
2. Auto-mirror skipped all playlists because tracks array was empty
Fix: cards render instantly from metadata, then tracks are fetched
per-playlist in the background via /api/tidal/playlist/<id>. As each
playlist's tracks arrive, the card count updates and the playlist
is auto-mirrored. Also tried multiple V2 attribute names for track
count (numberOfTracks, numberOfItems, etc.) and fixed the card DOM
selector for count updates.
get_user_playlists_metadata_only() was fetching full track lists for
every playlist sequentially (1+ API calls per playlist with 1s sleep
between pagination pages). For 20+ playlists this took 30-60 seconds.
Now returns only metadata (name, ID, track count, image) from a
single V2 API call. Track count comes from the numberOfTracks
attribute. Tracks are fetched on-demand when the user selects a
specific playlist to sync/mirror via the existing get_playlist()
endpoint.
Skip refresh attempt if client_id/secret not configured — clears stale
tokens to stop retry loop permanently. Add 5-minute backoff after
failed refresh to prevent hammering Tidal API every 2 seconds.
Updates the method for obtaining the next cursor during track pagination to use the approach from PR #113, retrieving it from 'links.meta.nextCursor' instead of 'meta.nextCursor'. This ensures correct pagination behavior.
Rewrites playlist and track fetching to use Tidal's JSON:API endpoints with cursor-based pagination and batch track hydration. Adds robust rate limiting with retry logic, and introduces ISO-8601 duration parsing. This improves reliability, performance, and compatibility with Tidal's latest API structure.
Redirect URIs for Spotify and Tidal OAuth are now configurable via the web UI and settings. Updated backend clients to use the configured redirect URI if provided, improving flexibility for deployments with custom callback URLs.
Introduces web server routes and UI buttons for initiating Spotify and Tidal OAuth authentication flows, with dedicated callback servers for token exchange. Updates Docker ports for OAuth callbacks and refines PKCE handling for Tidal. Improves user experience by allowing authentication directly from the web UI.
