This combined with the previous changes has brought the memory use for a 14k
track test-set down from about 75MB to 17MB or so. Note that this does however,
mean that copy is now lying to us as it does not such thing whenever it can
avoid it.
- Split into smaller test cases more or less per command
- Created a BasePopulatedTracklistTestCase with a sensible setUp
- Modified test cases to work with the common tracklist state
- Replaced all calls to tracklist.add(tracks=...) with uris=...
- Test tracklist ordering in more compact way that also gives better error
messages
All backends are expected to support the exact argument. A friendly log message
will be printed to prompt users to upgrade backends that fail due to this.
Backends that still implement find_exact will be called without exact as an
argument to search, and we will continue to use find_exact. Please remove
find_exact from such backends and switch to the new search API.
Functionality has been replaced with an `exact` param in the search method.
Backends that still implement find_exact will continue being called via
the old method for now.
This is needed as otherwise each and every backend needs to handle the fact
that some "bad" clients might send {'field': 'value'} instead of
{'field': ['value']} Though the real problem isn't the clients but our
organically grown query API.
This change has us checking the return value of change_track when deciding if
the play call was a success or if the track is unplayable. Which ensures that
the following can no longer happen: 1) play stream 2) play stream that fails
change_track 3) stream 1) continues playing. Correct behavior being the next
stream playing instead.
All uris given to lookup should be in the result even if there is no
backend to handle the uri, and the lookup result thus is an empty list.
As a side effect, future.get() is now called in the order of the URIs
in the `uris` list, making it easier to mock out
backend.library.lookup() in core layer tests.
While trying to remove traces of stop calls in core to get gapless working I
found we had no way to switch to switch tracks without triggering a play. This
change fixes this by changing the backends playback provider API.
- play() now _only_ starts playback and does not take any arguments.
- prepare_change() has been added, this could have been avoided with a kwarg to
change_track(track), but that would break more backends.
- core has been updated to call prepare_change+change_track+play as needed.
- tests have been updated to handle this change.
Longer term I hope to completely rework the playback API in backends, as 99% of
our backends only use change_track(track) to translate URIs. So we should make
simple case simple, and handle mopidy-spotify / appsrc in some other way.
Cherry picked from the WIP gapless branch.
Instead of changing the signature to add(uri, name) I opted for
renaming it to _add_track(track).
Since it's internal we may change it whenever we like to. Since you need
different logic for extracting an interesting name from a track and from
a ref or a stream title, it makes sense to add another method for adding
refs/stream titles to the history when that time comes.
Fixes#1056
The default was insane. For one, because overriding e.g. just the
getter would make the property have a pair of working getter and
setter that are entirely disconnected.
For now this doesn't add any corresponding APIs to backends, or for that matter
tracklist.add(uris). This is just to get the API in for clients in 0.20.
This is done by checking for the presence of the organization tag typically set
by web streams. This might be a bit to strict and a bad heuristic, but it's
currently better than wrongly emitting stream titles for non streams IMO.
Seeks will now fail when the duration is None, this is an approximation to if
the track is seekable or not. This check is need as otherwise seeking a radio
stream will trigger the next track.
If the track truly isn't seekable despite having a duration we should still
fail as GStreamer will reject the seek.
The API I really want for this to support regular tracks, stream updates and
dynamic playlists is still unclear to me. As such I'm taking the KISS approach
and reducing this to just the stream title and nothing else.
If all goes as planed this will be replaced by playback_track_changed(tlid, ref)
style events and other improvements in a later version.
