Written in rust using seed-rs compiled to wasm. Based on https://github.com/seed-rs/seed-quickstart
It follows the The Elm Architecture or Model-View-Update (MVU) principle for a frontend UI. It's very barebones without any styling but it demonstrates the capability of generating a functional wasm frontend using Rust and it benefits from reusing shared types and functionality in the project ecosystem.
Requires cargo-make
cargo install cargo-make
Frontend can be compiled separately by
cargo make build_release
Deploy index.html with pkg folder or host it with a simple http server
Fill the server information first. OUpon submitting the server information, the system checks if the server is reachable and only stores the server information on success.
When LastFM details are filled, it sends the username/password information to server side for one time only to request a permanent LastFM session key (server information should be already filled out). This lastfm session key is sent back to the web client and used for sending track listening. The system does not store your password details at any point.
Instead of sending LastFM session key and/or ListenBrainz token on every single request, the system uses a session token system which is generated on first listening event. The server stores your LastFM session key and/or ListenBrainz token attached to the this app's session token. You can check the server side table schema to have a more detailed look.
When starting scrobbling, the web client establishes a websocket connection and listens track changes events. When a track changes occur, the web client send listening info via already pre-established REST endpoint.
