CherryMusic 1.0 Roadmap

[devsnd]

This is my fifth attempt at (re)writing CherryMusic and it looks quite good and maintainable right now. The codebase for this new version is a new client, the backend stays mostly the same for now. but I'm still experimenting a bit so I cannot accept any help or pull requests for this new version. So I'll just make a list of stuff that needs to happen before it can be released, so you guys know whats going on and whats taking so long.

Features for feature-parity:

• [x] login screen
• [x] basic file browsing
• [x] basic search
• [x] independently scrollable browser and playlists
• [x] meta data fetching
• [x] basic playlist functionality (tabs, adding / listing tracks, playing next track after current finished)
• [x] basic audio player (play, pause, seek)
• [x] compact file listing
• [x] switch between list and tile view in browser
• [ ] drag'n'drop support to order tracks in playlist
• [x] playlist browser - show playlist list
• [x] playlist browser - delete playlist
• [x] playlist browser - mark playlist as public
• [ ] playlist browser - load single playlist
• [ ] save changed playlist
• [ ] save new playlist
• [ ] prohibit closing the browser tab while playing
• [ ] transcoding (based on browser and server capabilities)
• [ ] load server config on startup
• [ ] load user options on startup
• [ ] options - change user options
• [ ] options - keyboard shortcuts
• [ ] options - change password dialog
• [ ] options - export playlists to zip
• [ ] admin - create user

• [ ] admin - trigger db update

• [ ] remaining tracks / playtime display

• [ ] change album art dialog
• [ ] sort tracks in a playlist
• [ ] remove played tracks in a playlist
• [ ] preview (expand) playlists in playlist browser
• [ ] show album art next to player
• [ ] message of the day

Issues fixed by the rewrite:

• [x] playlist manager tries to access non-existing playlist #578

• [x] Lazy loading meta-info for tracks #439
• [ ] Seekbar does not work. #275
