For developers I want to make a clear statement.

There will not be an API7 when Ampache 7 releases. We will continue to build and extend API6.

This means no breaking changes or removals to the API for our next major version.

ampache, to php
@ampache@fosstodon.org avatar

Development of 7 will need to start this year.

I think this will ready after July 2024 and will raise the minimum version to .

It usually takes me about 6 months depending on the removals and changes. I don't intend to make major structural changes to the backend so I think that's an over estimation.

I'll fork branches for ampache7 in Feb @usox

@usox integrate into 6!

I'm not ready for 7 work until I get organised at work, which is why I'm aiming for Feb.

@usox also.... splitting update is a massive task!

@usox I made a few tests with old empty databases from 3.9.0.

I'll see if I can make some sql files for older versions using ampache-test to make sure there is actual content there as well. https://github.com/lachlan-00/ampache-test

6.2.1 out now!

Some hidden static typing have been found and the verify experience for catalogs is much nicer.

This isn't a big release but I like this one a lot for catching those unknown bugs.

@lexplt You picked a good time to jump.

I had been making my own "wrapped" by querying the sql, but I think this way is much nicer and not so in your face.

You should also find so many things are faster in 6 compared to 5. Still more work to go through, but I'm really happy with where it is right now

I've removed donation options from https://ampache.org

The reason why? I have a new job it will take me some time to balance work and code again this year so I don't want to waste it.

When I can dedicate my time consistently it will reopen.

@usox keep Ampache in mind for your next holiday activity!

Lets finish off the year with a bang!

6.2.0 is out now and has had so many static analysis fixes I've lost count.
(strict_types=1 is definitely a goal.)

Who's in your top 10 this year? Well now you can find out without having to learn any SQL!

@franko when I can spend more hours a day on the project I'll look at adding that.

I'll be working in a new job which will take a lot of my time this year

@ampache@fosstodon.org avatar

@franko haha, no don't worry about that!

Life moves on in the background and I'll still be here for a long time.

Incoming feature to help you replace

When enabled, you can get your data for the current year from your user page. (The little "i" icon on the displayname row.)

Incidentally, we really need more icons...

Any 5 users still not up to 6?

Here's an update to help tide you over.

https://github.com/ampache/ampache/releases/tag/5.6.4

ampache, to php
@ampache@fosstodon.org avatar

Here are some interesting for 6.1.0 downloads 2 weeks after release.

  • php8.2 (60%)
  • php7.4 (20%)
  • php8.1 (10%)
  • php8.0 (5%)
  • php agnostic zips (5%)

The split between clones and zip releases is actually 50-50 which I didn't expect.

But it does for to show that putting the extra time into releases for 7.4 is worth the effort to help people who haven't/can't/don't want to upgrade yet.

6.1.0 is out now!

A lot of new testing scripts have helped us close out some long running bugs and issues in other areas

6 has had a lot of clean up work and a few new methods to make bookmarks much easier to use.
Consider it fully stable!

https://github.com/ampache/ampache/releases/tag/6.1.0

@franko thank you!

I think this release was rebuilt at least 15 times due to all the testing. But it has been worth it just in code quality alone.

ampache,
@ampache@fosstodon.org avatar

@usox I even wrote a new test this month!

Album sorting is being put back into after i realised that it was hooking onto the first table due to the id's not having unique names.

YAY! a todo removed!

Still using 5? Here's something to keep you busy until you move to 6.

A few fixes and backports of some of the updated CLI commands to make things a bit easier.

6.0.2 hot on the heels of the last .

This release locks down some of the odd bugs and also install issues people have had.

I think this is all the curly issues done now so have at it!

users.

When upgrading Ampache you'll need to stop the mysql service manually due to the Debian stable release. Otherwise you'll get an error as the mysql service was not being shut down safely.

Have a look at https://github.com/ampache/ampache-docker/issues/102#issuecomment-1640956439 in issue
