Favorites system

[schnapster]

This came up in #suggestions

A favorite system, letting the user save some music to his favorites, which he then can add to the queue with something like this: ;;play fav3, or shorter ;;fav n.

Prerequisites: a database ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

If you want this to be a thing please help me out with getting the DB stack to work.

Any recommendations for another JDBC database? Currently using Postgres, but I am having some performance issues.

might not be JDBC but if you need performance i think redis is the way to go. But then again i have no real experience with relational databases only with non-relational.

Not using JDBC would require me to thrown out everything currently in my db package. Also, redis stores everything in memory, so you're limited by RAM rather than disk space.

There was a suggestion made by @DaRealRoan#8116 in #suggestions that had a feature very closely related to this(I would personally agree this is a part of that feature). What was suggested:

is it possible to make it so that you can save playlists so that you can just do something like ;;playlist start ? and add them with something like ;;playlist add

My input:

• ;;playlist remove(rmv/rm);
• ;;playlist by itself shows subcommands;
• ;;playlist list shows a list of playlists;
• ;;playlist <name> shows a list of songs in the playlist;
• a user/server system;
• maybe make it so you can manage your playlists using the dashboard;
• ;;playlist favourites/favorites/fav shows a list of all your favourites;
• use pages if >10 songs;
• use embeds(they look kewl);
• all playlist features should apply to favourites.

Thanks napster for helping me refine this suggestion. I know this is a ton of stuff. Also I don't need any more semantics arguing over this.

So in essence, we are doing a playlist system, with each user having a favourites/liked playlist? Sort of like spotify, youtube and soundcloud eh?

An update on the state of this: #245 paves the way for saving playlists.

[itsaphel]

Bumping this and PR #245.

What's the status on this? Happy to contribute, if this is added to the free version of the bot. Something I'd love to see.

It's a convenient way for someone to save a song currently playing (that they might not know), without having to open Spotify, search for it and add it to their library or something. Allow users to list their favourited songs list, exports to YouTube/Spotify would be nice as well (down the road).
