ok, so right now we have the 'sync playlist to rabbit' menu. I have been using an android app called 'auxio' but everytime I reopen it it seems to reindex all the audio, takes a long time and doesn't always work? It sits on "your songs will show up here" and then they don't. First of all, can you do some solid research to see if there is an existing app that would work well to deliver this spec? We don't need to reinvent the wheel. If we ARE going to reinvent the wheel let's call this app 'andtunes' (get it?).
|
||||
|
||||
My needs are basic. I want to be able to sync playlists like we have now. I want the android app to open really, really quickly.
|
||||
|
||||
It opens to a main menu:
|
||||
- playlists
|
||||
- artists
|
||||
- albums
|
||||
- songs
|
||||
- search
|
||||
- now playing (if nothing is playing it should instead say "shuffle all" which shuffles all songs it knows about)
|
||||
|
||||
playlists button goes to a list of playlists, artists button goes to a list of all artists. andTunes only needs to sync with lintunes so maybe we can rebuild the andTunes music database when we sync to the phone. The 'sync playlist to rabbit' button can instead be 'sync playlist to andtunes'. Are we able to install the andTunes app right from linTunes? If so that could be another menu item from connections menu, 'install andtunes'. To think of it, we will probably want a way to choose which ones get synced. So instead of "sync playlist to rabbit" there need to be 2 menus, 'sync rabbit' which syncs all the playlists we've decided we want to sync. And another menu like 'rabbit sync settings' where we can check/uncheck playlists that we want synced. This is the method for removing synced playlists.
|
||||
|
||||
We only need compatibility with the rabbit r1! This is important. We should optimize UI for this device's small screen. The screen is really dim so we should maximize contrast and use black and white. The main screen buttons (playlists, artists, etc) should be buttons. Each one should be a fraction of the size of the screen. I'll need you to make standard images stored in an easy spot that I could then replace with my own button images if I want.
|
||||
|
||||
At the top of the songs page it should show "shuffle all" and then all songs sorted alphabetically.
|
||||
|
||||
tapping on an artist in the artist view brings us to albums from that artist but also an option for "all songs". "all songs" shows an alphabetical list of all songs from that artist with a 'shuffle all' (for that artist) button at the top. On the albums list for an artist, next to each album should be a little icon of the album art.
|
||||
|
||||
If something is playing, or playing but paused, there should be a button at the bottom of the screen that says "now playing" that the user can tap to go to the now-playing screen.
|
||||
|
||||
The now-playing screen should have a white background, show the album art square at top, below that a slim scrubber for current place in song, and transport buttons (back, play/pause, next). Below that we can have a shuffle button as well as a 'back' button that brings us to the last screen we were at (gotta keep track of that somehow?).
|
||||
|
||||
are there any basic features of a phone music app you can think of that I'm missing? This app can be the BARE minimum to start, I'll add features later as I find that I need them. But if you think of some blaring obvious stuff that I forgot feel free to suggest, thanks.
|
||||
|
||||
sorry this spec is a HUGE jumble. Probably the first task for you, after researching if this exists already, is to make a separate andTunes task list to build all this. Totally ok if we can't build the whole thing in one session! Feel free to break up the work however makes sense.

social/napster layer to lintunes
|
||||
|
||||
what is the user journey??? hehe
|
||||
|
||||
want to subscribe to playlists
|
||||
don't want any central servers I run
|
||||
syncthing perhaps, per person
|
||||
each person has a folder they share
|
||||
and you sync it down
|
||||
and you can copy it to your own machine
|
||||
and it's lowkey a gossip protocol bc if you're on the same network with someone else who follows that friend you can give them the tracks
|
||||
how to limit total size?
|
||||
|
||||
OH what if you sync a COPY of that person's library file
|
||||
that knows what tracks they have
|
||||
and you can peruse it
|
||||
and mark certain ones as wanted
|
||||
so maybe you have a want list
|
||||
|
||||
each person's share folder is read only to you
|
||||

||||

|
||||
what are necessary features?
|
||||
what features does syncthing afford?
|
||||
let's do the venn diagram of those
|
||||
then do the ones that it afford but aren't necessary
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
follow someone by pasting a link?
|
||||
do it under Connections menu
|
||||
it would have "add friend library" or "share library with a friend"
|
||||
add friend library gives you a pop up with a text field where you can paste in the syncthing link that's read-only to you
|
||||
you also create a folder that's read-only for them and it outputs that link for you to give the friend
|
||||
they can paste this link into the same "add friend library"
|
||||
there should also be a menu item that says "sync settings"
|
||||
all these menu items can be grouped together under Connections between a couple horizonal lines.
|
||||
|
||||
sync settings can have a list on the left of 'general settings', and then in the list each friend you're synced with
|
||||
this should look and behave like the settings window in vlc with the list on the left and settings that pop up on the right.
|
||||
for each one it'll give you status of Syncthing generally and each friend connection. Whether you've made contact with the other machine.
|
||||
The way the friend sync should work is that each user chooses what of their library they want to sync. This is in sync settings for each friend.
|
||||
by default it should have checked 'share whole library
|
||||
if that button is unchecked then a browser (like the browser in the app, genre, artist, album) shows up as well as 2 buttons, 'select all' and 'select none'
|
||||
we need to make sure there's a cancel button on this window in case people press one of these buttons by accident, thus clearing their selectionn.
|
||||
each artist, album and song has a little checkmark next to it
|
||||
whatever has a checkmark, these artists, albums are made available to the other user
|
||||
in the folder that we share with them, that's read-only to them, contains shrunken library database copies. If someone has selected to share all artists and all playlists, it's basically just a copy of the local library.
|
||||
if it's pared down on either the playlists or artits, etc then those are removed from the copy of the library in the share folder
|
||||
we only need to write the file when we hit 'ok' in the settings menu.
|
||||
we can set what we share with each friend in each friend settings
|
||||
OR
|
||||
you can set a setting in the general sync settings that you want to share the same thing to all your friends and then you pick in the general settings.
|
||||
|
||||
share all playlists is default unchecked with none of the playlists selected
|
||||
thus defaulting to a user opting in to sharing all their playlists
|
||||
in general settings there's a setting for what your name shows up as to other users.
|
||||
|
||||
in the main window we now need to cut out a small square of the Library button to put a little down-arrow triangle library selector button
|
||||
hierarchically this button should appear as a smaller part of the library button, resting right next to it and not being sloped on the corners where they meet.
|
||||
clicking that button causes a tiny popup window to show below it where you can select your friends libraries by name
|
||||
when switching in to their library it now shows all of their library and playlists as if you're using their lintunes
|
||||
but the files aren't all there
|
||||
there is now another column that shows up by default all the way to the left of the other columns
|
||||
this is a download request button
|
||||
each artist, album and song will have a little embossed button with a cassette tape icon on it
|
||||
if you press it it goes gray (as does the icon next to any sub-items, ie, clicking the cassette for an artist will transitively click the cassette for all albums and tracks of that artist)
|
||||
if you hover over a grayed-out pressed cassete button it should go medium-gray indicating it can be pressed to swap back from selected to un-selected
|
||||
they're esentially all checkboxes.
|
||||
|
||||
If any new artists/albums/tracks are selected or unselected, 'cancel' and 'save' buttons will appear in the bottom menu to go back to your own library and update your requests file
|
||||
this requests file is read by the other lintunes and if it sees a song that has been 'cassetted', ie, selected by the friend lintunes, then the subsequent file is saved to the out-box that is read-only synced back to the friend.
|
||||
the other friend's lintunes tracks that folder and when files are synced in there that we have 'cassetted' then we copy them into our library as if the 'add to library' menu item had been selected
|
||||
ie, sort into the right folder. Import the song.
|
||||
we then now update the list of tracks we have 'cassetted' to a specific friend because we no longer cassette it, we have it now.
|
||||
|
||||
when viewing a friend's library you can say 'see only tracks I don't have' or 'see all tracks' in the bottom menu.
|
||||
|
||||
I imagine this will require some delta-library folders or ways to keep track of state. We want to be resilient if sync goes wonky.
|
||||
also we want it to be fast so we want to limit disk writes and reads. It should be fast because it's all local. We let syncthing handle everything that goes over the network.
|
||||
|
||||
I now also want to by default on new installs to add a smart playlist called 'new tracks' which shows stuff that has been added to your library in the past 3 months
|
||||
this can be deleted just like any other smart playlist
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
additionally I'd like to add some emboss to all of the buttons. Just a real slight emboss, soft.
