New release please? #1704

Closed Marcool04 closed 3 years ago

Marcool04 commented 3 years ago

New functionality was added for macOS in 730bf0672a4066cd60feccb2dcaf1e86cb1fd971, 93f5aebab90103a344afe40a6e28ec4c3727ead5, and 398474fa1b5bde176f1f5a5480983c0c4885b38d for instance, and the last tagged version is from Sep 9, 2020.

I'm trying to get a homebrew formula together to build Cantata "automatically" on macOS (currently there is a homebrew cask, but that uses the last .dmg which is from 2018). For this a tagged release is needed.

Do you feel it would make sense / be possible to create a new release tag at this point? I'd be grateful if you'd consider it in any case. Thanks in advance. Mark.

I will be releasing a new version soon, just not sure when. I no longer use Cantata, so its not a priority for me.

Marcool04 commented 3 years ago

Sure I understand. No rush whatsoever. Very grateful for your continued maintenance. 👏

Hi @CDrummond, just pinging re: a new release tag. There's now a PR up to add Cantata to homebrew core: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/86834. Would be great to include the more recent MacOS updates in the build (ideally including https://github.com/CDrummond/cantata/pull/1746 :) ).

It was also suggested that we could potentially contribute a GitHub CI workflow to automate Cantata .dmg builds. Would you consider accepting such a workflow and including the .dmg in releases? Then we wouldn't have to migrate Cantata from homebrew-cask to homebrew-core.

CDrummond commented 2 years ago

Workflow sounds fine, as long as there is not too much for me to do. As stated, I no longer use Cantata nor MPD so have limited time for this.

I am aware its been over a year since the last release, and was jsut waiting for a quiet moment to tag the new release - which will be 2.5.0

Thanks @CDrummond! Appreciate you keeping up with this sort of stuff after the project is out of active development. Hopefully https://github.com/CDrummond/cantata/pull/1747 is sufficiently low-maintenance :)

Marcool04 commented 2 years ago

If anything ever seems wrong with the workflow, please don't hesitate to ping me I'll see if I can fix it.

@CDrummond Would it be possible to tag and release a version soon-ish? As Windows/MacOS etc are (afaik) no longer built/released formally I believe this is just the tarball. Distros are still in 2.4.2 and there are a lot of really nice changes and fixes made in the past 1.5 year.

Cheers for still maintaining this!
