Import favorites and playlist from Jellyfin #554

Open wyndon opened 3 years ago

wyndon commented 3 years ago

Currently, Tauon doesn't import Jellyfin playlists and favorited songs. It would be cool if Tauon could import and update them on Jellyfin when adding new songs. It would save the hassle of having to export the database and importing it on a new computer.

Now doing this will confuse some things : how to differentiate a playlist from Tauon and one from Jellyfin ? It would be needed to do some kind of separation.

I'm asking this for Jellyfin, but I guess that other supported services could benefit from this as well.

Would this be possible/is in the scope of this project ?

It could work like the Spotify playlist support works, where you can import playlists from a menu, and manually push/pull changes using the tab menu. It otherwise works like a normal playlist, just normal tracks put in it won't sync.

It is a feature I think is within scope, but it's a fair bit of work and is kind of low priority for me.

Having created playlists synced to/from Jellyfin would be amazing for me, as it would allow me to really seamlessly keep listening to my favorite albums regardless of which computer I'm working on that day. Though I understand this might be a bigger undertaking. Is there already (part of) this concept somewhere in the playlist related code, or would this require a bunch of work from the ground up?

Taiko2k commented 2 years ago

Most doable would be a push/pull model, it would be explicitly manual and per playlist, so no auto sync, and you would have to select playlists one at a time to initially import. So it would be like, right click tab, push changes, or right click tab, pull changes. Would that be acceptable?

A little background: What I'm currently doing for local playlists is that as soon as I create one I edit its generator and add s"" tn auto to it. I also have auto added to my Jellyfin "playlist", so whenever I open the main Jellyfin playlist it automatically fetches whatever may have changed from Jellyfin, and whenever I open a playlist after this, they too automatically fetch whatever new albums might've come in from that particular artist the playlist is for.

Would with this proposal the auto option be usable to automatically fetch new changes from said playlist? If so, that could end up working quite nicely then.

Of course it would be even nicer if it could create a playlist on Jellyfin's side from the app (whether automatically or after a push to do so), that would make it quite a powerful combination indeed.

(Small side note in what I shared above; the s"" somehow seems to be required or otherwise when I refresh a playlist it just goes fully blank. This is with my entire library being served from Jellyfin, I have no local audio files)

I've now committed playlist download / upload functionality. Ill write a detailed guide closer to release.

Seems to work good. Thanks!

Are favorites sync also planned?

That has already been implemented for a while. Is it not working for you?

(Jellyfin -> Tauon sync only happens on main library import/regenerate, Tauon -> Jellyfin happens immediately)

(Small related bug introduced in recent commit, committed a fix now)

Sorry, I may have badly worded this. Favorites sync work as intended, but in Jellyfin, you have the ability to actually play songs only through your favorites, kinda like a playlist. So I was hoping to have all my favorites synced to a playlist in Tauon.

You could do that through tauons normal features though right? Create new playlist > edit generator (ctrl + e) > enter a l auto

Seems to work nicely! Sorry for causing you trouble, I completely ditched Tauon since it didn't support Jellyfin playlists at the time. But now seems like it has all the features I need. Thanks!

@Taiko2k Should this issue be closed?
