Kitsu #341
Comments
|
Progress report: Development is going on at the kitsu branch. It's not in a usable state yet, but most of the basic functionality is now implemented. Current plan is to release a beta version right after Kitsu's full launch and get feedback until the service can be considered stable. |
|
Hummingbird is now being migrated to Kitsu. You may continue using Taiga in offline mode for a while, but you will start seeing errors if you try connecting to Hummingbird. To avoid some of these errors, I'd suggest disabling auto synchronization from Tools menu and the Synchronize automatically at startup option from Settings → Services → Main. When Kitsu support is ready, I'll announce the download link for the beta version in here and in the forums. |
|
@erengy Is there anyway you could make two versions of Taiga to support the services separately? Would that be possible? |
|
Is there a point, You can turn either off easily, and maintaining 2 applications becomes a low of work. |
Yeah there is a point, it's so I don't have to run two instances of the same program and rather it's a lot of work or not is up to erengy not you, I currently use both MAL and formally HB (now Kitsu) at the same time so having two separate apps would be great. |
|
I agree with Shaun. I believe two different edition of Taiga will help us to update our library fastly. |
|
Sorry @ShaunV2 thought you meant use two instances because you don't use either MAL or Kitsu, my bad, and i see where your coming from. |
|
@sachaw I do run two instances of Taiga and I have them both run at startup as well by creating registry keys in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run since Taiga doesn't write run registry keys there. I would love to not have to run two instances of Taiga though. |

Good evening. I am unable to sync my Kitsu account with "TaigaSetup-v1.2.5-25-g2dfd816-kitsu" build. Trying to sync my data it freezes and then it becomes unresponsive. |
This is most likely never going to happen, for various reasons. The plan is to eventually make a single instance of Taiga synchronize multiple services at the same time (there's an FAQ entry for why this is not the case yet). Anyway, this should be a separate discussion.
Hi there @ovingiv. As I said in my previous post, it's not in a usable state yet. I'm not finished implementing all the new API endpoints, and there are a couple of other things to take care of as well. I'd suggest you to wait until I increment the version to 1.2.6-beta (or 1.3.0-beta, I haven't decided yet). |
|
@erengy ok no problem... |
|
Fair enough @erengy and I look forward for when:
becomes possible. |
|
Posting to ask how that kitsu update is coming along :) |
|
I've been working on Taiga pretty much every day for a while now, and it's almost done. Everything except for Seasons page seems to be working. I'll post another comment here in a day or two, after handling that. |
|
Barring potential errors that I missed, Taiga now supports Kitsu the same way it supported Hummingbird. I've merged the If you install it over a previous installation that used Hummingbird as its active service, Taiga will automatically import all local Hummingbird data and switch the active service to Kitsu. All communications with Kitsu should work as expected. Although, if you have a large library, note that Kitsu's server may take more than 10 seconds to respond in some cases. Now I need to decide on how to proceed from here. There were lots of other things that I wanted to do for v1.3, including some architectural changes. But it might be a better idea to postpone those for a while and release a stable version with Kitsu support as soon as possible. |
|
Don't wanna open a new issue for this since it's an alpha build, but I'm unable to sync with Kitsu. |
|
It seems that Taiga's trying to update a library entry of yours, but Kitsu says that it doesn't exist. Did you have some queued updates before upgrading to the alpha build? In any case, try this:
I'll try to fix this issue tomorrow and update the latest build afterwards. Edit: Done. |
|
That indeed was the issue and the fix. Thanks! |
|
Quick question: Will the history get wiped once the update for kitsu compatibility comes out? I have like 40 episodes queued up in the history right now. |
|
@robflop No,its fine, if you download the latest build http://taiga.moe/latest.html and replace it worth your existing taiga.exe in %appdata%/Taiga/Taiga.exe and open it, It'l update your list, If u want to be super careful backup your Taiga directory |
|
Taiga will import all your local Hummingbird data, so that you don't lose anything. Queued updates will be sent to Kitsu when you synchronize. Unless you've manually added/deleted the same anime via the website too, you shouldn't have any issues. But if you do, let me know! To explain what happened above with @KazukiMutou: Unlike Hummingbird, Kitsu requires unique IDs to update your library entries. Taiga didn't know these numbers at first and it was sending empty IDs to Kitsu. So I suggested using a trick to force Taiga into downloading the library first, before trying to update it. Since then, I fixed this issue in ad14627 and updated the latest build. |
|
Just downloaded. Getting an error where it says No clue why it's only the second season of Shokugeki, guess that's why this is here. |
|
Hi there Jake. I fixed that issue in eb2c4a7, but had not updated the latest build since then. It should be okay if you get the latest latest build now. :) |
|
Tyty |
|
Getting |
|
That |
|
Over 3000 entries. 😉 |
|
Yeah, that would do it. If the upcoming API changes don't provide much performance benefits, I'll try to make Taiga get your library in chunks rather than requesting to receive it all in a single response. |
|
that explains it then 👍 for me just imported my old MAL list and just got this error |
|
Since it's almost been a month since I last posted I have come again to bother you for an update on a beta or official update for kitsu 🦊 |
|
@littleladyred There is already a beta version available to download, refer to this comment. I'm using that build now and other then some errors (sometimes you get an error when it tries to sync at startup) it works great. |
|
@ShaunV2 That's an alpha version. I am using it at the moment. I was asking for an official beta, stable installer release. That a bit more specific? |
|
@littleladyred Fair enough. I'm sure he will mention when an official beta or stable installer will be released. |
Kitsu's API is not stable enough for me to release a stable version yet. I could release a beta version with an actual installer, but I'm trying to use this opportunity to get #316 done first, which is going to take a while. |
|
The latest build of 1.3.0-alpha as of today (18/2/2017 UTC) triggers a malware detection in Windows Defender as Trojan:Win32/Detplock File details: False positive? |
|
@auyongcheemeng Could you ensure that your virus definitions in Windows Defender are up to date? A quick Google search shows there was a similar problem with Hearthstone for a bit with out of date definitions. |
|
Yes they are (on 18/2/2017 2.58AM - v 1.235.3101.0), as of this moment. PS: This month's windows updates got delayed. I'll hold on for a bit more till next definition updates. |
That may have been the case in the pre-windows 8 era, but Defender is pretty competent for common user nowadays. Also better of in #19 |
|
As an update: definations got updated and taiga (SHA256: ca356c...258216) no longer triggers the false positive. A side note on ShaunV2's comment: Using any third party security software will increase the attack surface of threats |
|
Let's keep the arguments about anti-virus off this thread, it's unproductive. |
|
is it died? |
|
Still works for me. |
|
If anyone wants to use their Kitsu library right now, you can use Kitsu's export functions and live-export (change on Kitsu and auto-update on MAL) to MAL and use that for now |
|
Or you can use 1.3.0 alpha and update Kitsu normally... |
|
v1.3.0-beta is now available: |
Hummingbird is about to become Kitsu. This means that, within a couple of days, Taiga's Hummingbird service will stop working.
Since the new website brings about a different API, there's much more to be done than just replacing "Hummingbird" with "Kitsu" on Taiga's codebase. Also, a new version of Taiga should be able to automatically import local Hummingbird data for a smooth transition.
Unfortunately, I won't be around at Kitsu's launch to celebrate. But when I return home next week, I will start working on this issue and release a beta version as soon as possible.
