6.6.1

python3-ampache 6.6.1

Bug update to fix a few things found in testing Ampache releases. Adding more checks to the build process has helped me find a few issues here.

The execute function allows simpler code creation. (Currently only supports handshake and ping but will be expanded to all methods)

The project readme and examples will be updated as this function expands support for other methods and will help reduce work connecting to Ampache servers.

Added

• new function execute: execute(self, method: str, params=None)
• new function set_version: set the class AMPACHE_VERSION variable
• debug messages for some helper functions
• flag: add date parameter
• record_play: add date parameter

Fixed

• get_id_list fixes for more types of returned data
