Timestamp of playlist entry to be added to API

Postby unimatrix27 » Sun Jan 12, 2014 10:05 am

Hi,

I am trying to build an external small perl application/script to sync my Subsonic playlists with local files I need to use for my MPD/Pulseaudio Multiroom server. However I do want to edit my playlists both with Subsonic (mostly using the Android APP i add songs to playlists) but also I edit the local files.

In order to implement a two-way sync, I would need to check the timestamp of each song in a playlist, meaning the timestamp of which this playlist entry was inserted or updated. A second option would be at least a timestamp of when the playlist as such was updated. Currently the getPlaylists.view-API call returns a list of playlists with a "created" timestamp but what I would need in additon is an "updated" timestamp.

WIth this tool I want to be able to "get back" the 4.6 function of having local playlist files.

Thanks!

I would love to see this added to the API, something like the ifModifiedSince option for getIndexes, but then for getPlaylists.

This would allow much more efficient synchronization between my client and SubSonic.

I still haven't found a better alternative. Will this feature ever be implemented?
