One of our most requested missing features is now available!
Starting with Funkwhale 0.20,
Funkwhale will automatically extract genre information from uploaded files and associate it
with the corresponding tracks in the form of tags (similar to Mastodon or Twitter hashtags).
Please refer to `our tagging documentation <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/users/upload.html#tagging-files>`_
for more information regarding the tagging process.
Tags can also be associated with artists and albums, and updated after upload through the UI using
the edit system released in Funkwhale 0.19. Tags are also fetched when retrieving content
via federation.
Tags are used in various places to enhance user experience:
- Tags are listed on tracks, albums and artist profiles
- Each tag has a dedicated page were you can browse corresponding content and quickly start a radio
- The custom radio builder now supports using tags
- Subsonic apps that support genres - such as DSub or Ultrasonic - should display this information as well
If you are a pod admin and want to extract tags from already uploaded content, you run `this snippet <https://dev.funkwhale.audio/funkwhale/funkwhale/snippets/43>`_
and `this snippet <https://dev.funkwhale.audio/funkwhale/funkwhale/snippets/44>`_ in a ``python manage.py shell``.
