Fixes#4627.
AcousticBrainz is shutting down as of early 2023. Deprecate the absubmit
plugin and update the acousticbrainz plugin to require configuration of
an AcousticBrainz server instance.
PR #3748 changed the way cover art is fetched from the cover art
archive, but the manual addition of a `-` to the width suffix that was
needed when the image URI was being constructed manually was not
removed. Because of this the plugin would try to look up the property
under `thumbnails` that didn't exist (for example `-1200` instead of
`1200`), which would fail.
This guards the os.chmod calls so it's only called IF the
permissions need changing. This guards against an exception in
certain complex library setups.
This was a helper for situations when Python 2 and 3 APIs returned bytes
and unicode, respectively. In these situation, we should nowadays know
which of the two we receive, so there's no need to wrap & hide the
`bytes.decode()` anymore (when it is still required).
Detailed justification:
beets/ui/__init__.py:
- command line options are always parsed to str
beets/ui/commands.py:
- confuse's config.dump always returns str
- open(...) defaults to text mode, read()ing str
beetsplug/keyfinder.py:
- ...
beetsplug/web/__init__.py:
- internally, paths are always bytestrings
- additionally, I took the liberty to slighlty re-arrange the code: it
makes sense to split off the basename first, since we're only
interested in the unicode conversion of that part.
test/helper.py:
- capture_stdout() gives a StringIO, which yields str
test/test_ui.py:
- self.io, from _common.TestCase, ultimately contains a
_common.DummyOut, which appears to be dealing with str (cf.
DummyOut.get)
The idea in this PR is to converge on Python's `fsdecode` and `fsencode`
for argument manipulation. This seems to match up with the Python
standard library's assumptions: namely, on Windows, we use `fsdecode` to
get back to Unicode strings:
54bbb5e336/Lib/subprocess.py (L561)
So let's start by dropping this utility and going straight for
`fsdecode` here to match.
The parallelism strategy in #3478, in retrospect, used a pretty funky
way to deal with exceptions in the asynchronous work---since
`apply_async` has an `error_callback` parameter that's meant for exactly
this. The problem is that the wrapped function would correctly log the
exception *and then return `None`*, confusing any downstream code.
Instead of just adding `None`-awareness to the callback, let's just
avoid running the callback altogether in the case of an error.
It looks like the convert option for wma used to be called windows media. We could just remove this alias, but might be good to keep for backwards compatibility.
