autoplaylist's Issues

Store sessions in Redis (Google Memory Store)

Would be cool to let the sessions survive restarts and also open up to properly running multiple instances

Don't block thread in suspending function

Hello, during searching for kotlin libs with retries I found your project.

The problem I found - you are doing Thread.sleep that is simply block the whole thread and does not make sense for coroutine based code: https://github.com/RichoDemus/autoplaylist/blob/master/autoplaylist-backend/server/spotify-adapter/src/main/kotlin/com/richodemus/autoplaylist/spotify/SpotifyAdapter.kt#L81

Replacing it with delay() would fix the problem. Reference: https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/coroutines/basics.html#waiting-for-a-job

Deployment: Don't use StrictHostKeyChecking=no do deploy

Normally when SSHing to a new host you get that prompt asking you if you want to save the host to known_hosts. That doesn't fly when deploying automatically

Right now that's solved by disabling that feature but I guess it theres a better way

investigate

Periodically update playlists

So that if an artist releases new music it gets added automatically
