gonic v0.16.0

Highlights

• support for multi valued tags such as albumartists and genres found in audio metadata

  • this means a cleaner artist list, and the ability to find the same album by multiple artists in their respective artist pages
  • since there is no longer a direct relationship between guessed "artist dir" and album dir, a side effect of this change is that support for local artist covers on the filesystem has been dropped. however, last.fm artist images are working now
  • use a nice client like airsonic-refix for a nice experience when clicking artist names too
    
  • see the readme for more details

• much improved last.fm artist covers and info situation

  • full artist covers from last.fm are fetched and rendered
  • artist bio responses from last.fm are cached so visiting artist pages should be much snappier

• playlists (including tracks and podcast episodes) are now backed by m3u files instead of the gonic database

  • this means having gonic playlists can be parsed and generated by external tools, we get import and export for free, and solves an issue of playlist entry pointers having ephemeral ids during rescans
  • (you will need to add a new playlist directory when starting gonic, the old database entries will be migrated)

• closer integration and collaboration with the @opensubsonic project

• a new experimental tool gonic-lastfm-sync for bidirectional sync of lastfm and gonic data

• many more features and fixes. see the granular changelog below

gonic v0.15.0

hi all, v0.15.0 is finally here
lots of new stuff in this release, and lots of bug fixes too - see below!
big thanks to everyone who contributed :~)
@brian-doherty @spijet @lxea @dertasiu @xaviercrochet @djl @grilix @hufman @jgdye @Duncaen @ZachMyers3

Highlights

• much better combatibiliy with the subsonic api. including support for track/artist/albums stars/favourites, artist infos, podcast updates, avatars, internet radio stations
• multi-folder support, just like the subsonic api defines. this can be handy for example if you divide your files into audiobooks, or split them by genre, or maybe tagged vs untagged, whatever you like. clients like DSub will allow you to pick a folder that you want to search, view recently added in, etc. see more here
• change the jukebox mode's audio backend to be an mpv daemon. this gives us gapless playback, support for a wider range of file formats, etc. it's also possible to pass custom flags to mpv, meaning you can tweak the decoder settings, or make it output to a named pipe for multi-room audio with snapcast, for example
• much improved scanner codebase, and some performance improvements in places. it can also watch your filesystem for changes and re-scan automatically 👍 see the new config options
• 128kbps versions of the opus transcode profiles. see transcode profiles
• improvements to the listenbrainz and lastfm scrobbling
• just incase you don't have a fancy auto-TLS reverse proxy, gonic can now directly handle TLS connections. see the new config options
• collaboration with the symfonium subsonic client for android to improve compatibility

(see Features and Bug Fixes for a more in-depth look)

⚠ BREAKING CHANGES

• upgrade deps and require go 1.19
• podcast: make podcasts global not per user, to match spec

Notes for package maintainers

• alsalib / libasound is no longer required to build
• mpv can be documented as an optional dependancy for jukebox mode support
• go 1.19 is required
