Add semi-complete support for multiple artists.
This changeset completely reworks the music linker to add the following
new behaviors:
1. Artists are now derived from both artist and album artist tags,
with them being linked to songs and albums respectively
2. Albums and songs can now have multiple artists that can be distinct
from eachother
3. Previous Genre picking infrastructure has been removed and replaced
with artist picking infrastructure. "Play from genre" has been retired
entirely.
This is a clean break to the previous artist model and may not work
with all libraries. Steps to migrate the music library will be added
to the changelog.
Resolves#195.
Keep changes when unshuffling and reshuffling the queue.
This quirk was a hold-over from the old queue system, and now it's
removed.
Note that sorting is still based on parent, and so sort orders might
remain somewhat wonky. I only see myself really tackling that come
gapless playback, as I have to remove that last vestige to get that
system working.
Add a dialog for picking a genre from several choices.
This basically completes multi-genre support in Auxio, save more
internal reworks.
Note that it is extremely likely that the "Play from genre" setting
will be removed soon. This feature has made me realize that such does
not many any real sense, as genres are more semantically similar to
playlists than artists or albums. This implementation only exists to
make multi-artist support an easy plug-and-play operation.
Resolves#201
Completely rework the ID system to pave the way to MusicBrainz ID
support and greatly increase ID integrity in general.
This changeset removes the old ID field, an emulation of a polynomial
hash that was used in all items, and replaces it with a new type called
UID that is specific to Music. Other types just use plain equals now,
and most instances of "id" to check for equality in the app have either
been inlined into an equals override or removed outright.
The new UID format is as follows:
datatype/format:uuid
Datatype is a tag that is just the lowercase tag name. For example,
"song". Format is the program that created the UID. auxio will be an
md5 hash, and musicbrainz will the a musicbrainz ID extracted from a
file. UUID is the uuid itself.
This is much more reliable and extendable than the old ID format. This
will also be the last time I break compat with old ID formats. From now
on, a legacy UID field will not be included to enable backwards compat,
when the time comes for a breaking change.
Temporarily remove queue navigation, as it can no longer really fit
with the new transitions.
This will eventually be replaced with a queue bottom sheet, implying
that I can abuse one into working.
Add a shortcut to shuffle all songs.
This is likely the only static shortcut Auxio will have. Top tracks
and recently added are completely useless for me, so I will never
add them. I may add more dynamic shortcuts for recently played items,
however.
Note that we use a basic black shuffle icon here. I will not add icon
customization to these shortcuts.
Fix a state restore issue that would cause the parent to restore
incorrectly.
At some point, I accidentally used the index for the PlaybackMode field
when restoring the playbackState. This resulted in the playback mode
effectively reverting to ALL_SONGS and causing a number of subtle
issues.
Re-add the ability for content to fade out as the playback or queue
view slides up. This also migrates the queue slide animation to also
fade out content, which allows for the stylistic cohesion I desire.
Completely refactor PlaybackBarLayout into PlaybackLayout, which now
not only handles the bar behavior but also allows for one to slide
up the bar layout into the full playback layout. This was largely
adapted from umano's AndroidSlidingUpPanel, albeit heavily minified
and mixed with the previous window inset tricks of the previous layout.
There are still some tweaks to be made, but this implementation seems
to be really good.
Make MusicLoader instantiation fully asynchronous. This implementation
changes a lot about Auxio. For one, the loading screen is now gone.
However, many parts of the app now run under the fact that MusicStore
might not be available. However, I don't think there will be too much bugs
from it. Some more changes will be made to improve this implementation.
Do a couple of UI changes I thought of over this week:
- Make the detail header text neutral, mostly so I can make it so that
the accent only corresponds to active thingsd
- Remove the vanity elevation from the cover images. This is mostly to
abide by Material Design.
- Move the about screen to it's own menu slot on the main fragment.
Merge LibraryFragment, SongsFragment, and others into a new fragment
called HomeFragment. This is the beginning of the Auxio UI overhaul.
This has caused some regressions here and there, but these will be
rectified over time.
Completely redesign the about UI to remove its dependency on
bottomsheetdialogfragment. That object is such a hassle to deal with an
is the epitome of everything wrong with this horrible platform. This
design will enable further about extensions in the future.
Change the album detail layout to rely on a RecyclerView entirely instead of a NestedScrollView, at the cost of some functionality I'll need to re-add.
Use BottomNavigationView as the main navigator of Auxio instead of a ViewPager + BottomNavigationView, primarily to fix some memory leaks and give Auxio a better UI design overall.
Make QueueFragment an actual fragment instead of a BottomSheetDialogFragment. Really dont want to deal with the garbage BottomSheetDialogFragment does.
Change the parent artist navigation so that its only enabled when an album is selected from LibraryFragment, otherwise dont enable it, as the user can just navigate up to see the parent artist.
Update layouts to not assign a primary color through the tools namespace anymore, also bring back the light theme, which apparently disappeared at some point.
Add navigiation to LibraryFragment. This navigation is nested so that one can still move through the ViewPager, which will certainly have no problems later on. /s
Remove MusicRepository/All Library models and replace it with a single shared ViewModel, Move MainFragment into MainActivity, and remove the LoadingFragment -> MainFragment navigation path.
Turns out a dedicated Now Playing screen wont look that good, so refactor that into the Library screen. Also replace the ActionBar with a Toolbar and update the theming a bit.
