Hello!
For now, LMS emulates the functionality of getIndexes by listing the artists. In getMusicDirectory, if an artist is requested, we list the albums, and if an album is requested, we list the tracks of the album.
Now, I would like to understand how it is supposed to work in the original API, because for me, everything is not very clear when looking at the legacy Subsonic's examples, which only consider the artist/album/tracks structure.
For example, if I place my music in subfolders like this:
Techno/Compilations/HardBassVol17, what type of node should be indicated for "Techno" in the getIndexes response? And the same question for "Compilations" and "HardBassVol17" in the getMusicDirectory requests?
The same questions apply for an organization like this: Metal/Metallica/Reload. I see in the responses that the node type is "artist," but I don't quite see how the original API distinguishes between an intermediate folder and a folder that contains only the artist's albums?
Bonus question: what about MyArtist/MyAlbum/CDX?
