⬆️ Upgrading​

Packages renaming and new install paths​

Once the upgrade has taken place, you need to run the following commands to clean up old scripts and configuration:

# Remove the old packages
sudo pip3 uninstall \
  airtime-playout \
  airtime-celery \
  api_clients

# Remove old entrypoints
sudo rm -f \
  /usr/bin/airtime-liquidsoap \
  /usr/bin/airtime-playout \
  /usr/bin/pyponotify

# Remove old config files
sudo rm -f \
  /etc/logrotate.d/airtime-liquidsoap

# Remove the old runtime and PHP directories
sudo rm -rf \
  /var/run/airtime \
  /run/airtime \
  /usr/share/airtime/php/airtime_mvc

# Remove old python libraries entrypoints
sudo rm -f \
  /usr/bin/airtime-liquidsoap \
  /usr/bin/airtime-playout \
  /usr/bin/libretime-analyzer \
  /usr/bin/libretime-api \
  /usr/bin/collectiongain \

⚠️ Known issues​

The following issues may need a workaround for the time being. Please search the issues before reporting problems not listed below.

Interface Customization Issues​

The UI works best if you don't use it in an opinionated fashion and change just the bare minimal.

No watched folder support​

Currently LibreTime does not support watching folders. Uploading files through the web interface works fine and can be automated via a REST API. Re-implementing watched folder support is on the roadmap. Please consider helping out with the code to help speed things along if you want to use the feature. This is tracked in #70.

No line in support​

This feature went missing from LibreTime due to the fact that we based our code off of the saas-dev branch of legacy upstream and support for recording hasn't been ported to the new airtime analyzer ingest system. #42 currently tracks the progress being made on line in recording. This is tracked in #42.

Playout won't work if locale is missing​

Some minimal OS installs do not have a default locale configured. This only seems to affect some VPS installs as they often do not have a locale setup in the default images provided. This is tracked in #317.

You can set up the locale using a combination of the following commands. You might also want to consult the documentation of your VPS provider as it may contain an official way to set up locales when provisioning a VPS.

# Set locale using systemds localectl
localectl set-locale LANG="en_US.utf8"

These instructions do not seem to work on all Debian based distros so you might need to use update-locale as follows.

#Purge all locales but en_US.UTF-8
sudo locale-gen --purge en_US.UTF-8
#Populate LANGUAGE=
sudo update-locale LANGUAGE="en_US.UTF-8"
