For admins and developers

Breaking changes

  • Ahead-of-time track matching
    • When a track starts playing, Blanco now attempts to find a playable Lavalink track for the next track in queue
    • This is done in a background asyncio.Task for minimal performance impact
    • Configurable using BLANCO_MATCH_AHEAD (or bot.match_ahead)
  • Cache support using Redis
    • Blanco can now cache Lavalink tracks, Spotify tracks, ISRCs, and MusicBrainz IDs to lessen API requests
    • Configurable using new Redis connection details in the configuration (see wiki)
  • New Sentry integration
    • Blanco can now forward errors and critical errors to Sentry
    • Configurable using new Sentry DSN details in the configuration (see wiki)
  • Database schema changes
    • Added loop_all column to player_settings to persist whole-queue looping for guilds

Other changes

  • Bugfixes
    • Fixed a bug where Blanco would fail to connect to a Lavalink node it doesn't have an existing session ID for
    • Fixed a bug where the previously set volume wouldn't persist across play sessions
  • Code cleanup
    • Linting passes
    • Moved fuzzy string matchers to utils/fuzzy.py
    • PlayerCog:jockey_helpers.py: Removed unused import
    • utils/blanco.py: Removed unused ThreadPoolExecutor
    • utils/config.py: Removed unused convenience get_debug_* functions
  • Dedicated queueing module
    • The queueing logic in the Jockey class has now been mostly moved into a new QueueManager class
    • There should be no changes in functionality, but I'll issue a hotfix in case of a bug
