State of Pianod

December 26, 2021

As hoped, 2021 successfully brought JSON responses to pianod. ThingieList, SongList and PlaylistList were also consolidated and improved.

In the coming year, I’d like to research a possible integration for Tidal.

Open issues from 2020:

• There are open-source Spotify libraries out there. It would be nice to integrate with Spotify, when time is available.

Open issues from 2017:

• The design, coming from the original pianod, was built around a mostly-single-threaded model. The world is moving toward multithreaded models; it would make sense to move in this direction. Moving periodic() into its own thread, for example. That’ll need to be a slow, careful movement.
