Remove Mopidy-Subsonic

[kingosticks]

Mopidy-Subsonic appears to be unmaintained and if so, it's not feasible to include it in future pimusicbox releases (https://github.com/pimusicbox/pimusicbox/issues/308).

I've asked the current maintainer to confirm the status of the project at https://github.com/rattboi/mopidy-subsonic/issues/17

No reply, it'll be removed from the next version. If it seems future development and there is any demand we can add it back.

It's a shame i was using pimusicbox with my subsonic server....furhtermore, i was browsing this repository because my pimusicbox can't boot anymore due to a fatal python error since i upgrade my version of subsonic at 6.0...

I have the pimusicbox working with the latest Subsonic 6.0. The fatal python error has to do with no playlists defined. Just create one playlist in Subsonic and it will work.

I confirm novellahub's post. Creating a new playlist remove the fatal error at startup. Nice job :)

Any idea what the problem is with the mopidy-subsonic project? Is the maintainer quitting? Wonder if some of us could pick it up.

I would suggest asking at https://github.com/rattboi/mopidy-subsonic/issues/17 but I don't think we've seen anything from @rattboi in many months now

Hello guys! I suggest you include this plugin for Subsonic instead of mopidy-subsonic: https://github.com/Prior99/mopidy-subidy It works great for Subsonic 6.2 and is actively mantained. I've created a pull request for support for older versions of Subsonic and hhm0 has added a lot of functionality which has yet to be merged into main.

Hi all,

I concur that going with another plugin is the right direction. I haven't worked on mopidy-subsonic in a long time, and in fact have stopped using both mopidy and subsonic, so maintaining it just isn't realistic anymore :(

Sorry for the radio silence for so long.

OK sounds good to me. Thanks for all your work, @rattboi.

I've tried using loldaves fork and even adding some later commits by Prior99 and others, but I couldn't get it working. I e-mailed him and he said to try Mopidy-subidy instead, and that worked great! @rattboi Maybe Mopidy-subsonic should be removed from PyPI? Or possibly if you add another maintainer that can update it. :)

Unfortunately mopidy-subidy requires Mopidy v2.0+ but even the latest pimusicbox release candidate only provides v1.1.2. I don't know if it actually needs this version of Mopidy's API (few things do) but that's what is currently required to install. I appreciate that developing for and maintaining compatibility with older software is undesirable but sadly I cannot include mopidy-subidy in pimusicbox v0.7.
