I'll try to figure out a solution with our diligent brew packaging hero @themissingcow, but expect at least 2-3 days for this to succeed as whatever we come up with still needs to be manually reviewed and greenlit by the homebrew team.
Special thanks to @lislegaard for reporting and digging into the issue and @kel for additional support in the process!
[*] The issue seems to be caused by a software or system update in our code forge, which through an earlier git upstream change, interfered with the checksum stability of faircamp's release tarballs. Which is to say, tough luck, but no one's fault really, tech is just messy sometimes. :)
Short heads-up that #faircamp installation on brew should be working fine again (thanks @themissingcow for submitting a fix to brew). If somebody wants to confirm this in a reply just to be sure, would be appreciated. o/
Est-ce qu'une traduction du manuel ou d'un tutoriel pour #faircamp est quelque chose qu'il faudrait faire pour que ce petit bijou de logiciel soit utilisé dans la francophonie moyennement anglophone ?
#Faircamp c'est un logiciel libre qui permet de se faire un genre bandcamp auto-hébérgé, ça marche très bien et ça a de la gueule. Les seuls problèmes c'est que : c'est un peu technique, et il n'y a pas de ressources en français.
Wow someone found my ko-fi link :) thank you very much to "mysterious fedi user" for buying Solarpunk Grazers! What a nice surprise. First sale from my #Faircamp site.
Hi! I’m trying to set up faircamp which is like a bandcamp alternative. If I’m understanding correctly it’s a self-hosted static site. I’m new to all this. I’m on a mac, so I’ve installed Brew and then installed Faircamp using Terminal. It’s currently pointing to “Audio Music Apps” folder which is full of audio...
That’s very weird! So you get the error message when you run faircamp --preview after editing your .eno?
And is there one .eno in your “Artist Name” folder, and another .eno in each “Release” folder?
If you’re on Mastodon or similar, I recommend the #faircamp tag, loads of us try to help out on that! There may be someone more familiar with faircamp on Mac & brew who can help…
What are people using for #SoundCloud alternatives? I don't need distro or anything else, just a place to host audio where people can easily stream it. I'm game to host my own, if setting it up isn't a huge pain.
More and more I'm finding SC to be a magnet for spammers and scammers, and I'm looking for an out.
@synkr3tyk for just hosting and streaming of course I'm going to recommend #Faircamp... But not sure if there are other features of SoundCloud that you'd be looking for?
Messing with Faircamp in a Docker image on Windows, and I'm actually managing to get a site built. This might be an easy way to get it running on Windows too.
Alright, here it is. A Docker container with the Faircamp app, and a small project with a Windows shell script to easily run it on your local machine, and build your music catalog.
You need to install Docker Desktop (or some other way to start Docker containers) to be able to use this, but that's probably easier than setting up WSL.
It's all in the readme. I hope it makes sense for non-techies. 😁
I was horrified to discover that I had added trackers to my #faircamp. These were caused by the payment scripts from Stripe and Ko-fi. I can't control what these scripts do, so I have added load buttons with a warning. This way, there are no trackers when loading the download page, but they will load when you click the button. If anyone wants to do this on their own site, I can help.
In case it's helpful to anyone, I've made this bare-bones list of #Faircamp resources, including the short instructions by @alisynthesis on how to install it on Windows.
