django-lastfm 1.0.1

Sunday, May 1, 2011

Django-lastfm is a small Django app that allows you to embed your charts or recently listened tracks from Last.fm into your website. You can see the widget in action in the sidebar of this website.

Version 1.0.1 includes a few minor bugfixes and a more comprehensive test coverage.

You can find django-lastfm in the Cheese Shop or at Bitbucket.

    Hey man,

    First off, great app! I am using it on my personal site, and it's working well (as long as last.fm is :D ). That actually brings me to a question I have. Would it be possible to cache the images pulled from last.fm using nginx or rather, have you done this at all?

    Thank you for making this awesome app!

    Hi Jake,

    thanks for your comment. Currently, django-lastfm only caches the results of the the last.fm-API-Query. Since your browser usually caches the images directly from last.fm, I have not implemented caching for images in django-lastfm.

    Stefan,

    Thanks for the reply!

    The reason I asked is because last.fm does tend to go down regularly and it would be cool to have the images cached serverside. Looks like I might have to make some modifications :D

    Thanks, Jake
