Playlists information #4

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
It's not an issue, but adding a function to get playlists information 'd be 
awesome. From the home page I see it'll be added soon.

The only way I've found is to request 
https://embed.spotify.com/?uri=playlist_URI
With the new Spotify update, playlists are now stored in 
/AppData/Local/Spotify/mercury.db, but I've still not found a way to read the 
database.
Is there another method?

Thanks.

Thx for the info! I added a little something for this.
This snippet returns all URIs of a playlist as JSON.
First you need to add the HTML Agility Pack 
(http://htmlagilitypack.codeplex.com/)

And of course: using HtmlAgilityPack;

/// <summary>
/// Get URIs for the songs of the playlist
/// </summary>
/// <param name="uri">The playlist URI</param>
/// <returns>JSON object with song URIs</returns>
public string getPlaylist(string uri)
{
    try
    {
        string raw = new WebClient().DownloadString(string.Format("https://embed.spotify.com/?uri={0}", uri));
        HtmlDocument document = new HtmlDocument();
        document.LoadHtml(raw);

        HtmlNodeCollection collection = document.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//li[@data-track]");
        List<string> songlinks = new List<string>();    
        foreach (HtmlNode link in collection)
        {
            songlinks.Add("spotify:track:" + link.Attributes["data-track"].Value);
        }
        return JsonConvert.SerializeObject(songlinks);
    }
    catch
    {
        return "";
    }
}

@author: if you want you can add this code!

Hi, I've been using this and it's pretty cool. Is there anyway to get the URI 
of the current playlist? I've downloaded the HTML agility pack, and started 
using it, but there's no way to get the current playlist URI.

Unfortunately it's not working properly anymore because the embedded playlists 
are now limited to the first 200 songs only :(
