"404 not Found" search error #16

Closed christopher-dG closed 5 years ago

christopher-dG commented 6 years ago

Any search command shows the results just fine, but when I choose one, nothing is played and I get a log message: "404 Not Found".

[ ~ ] baton search artist foo  # Press enter to choose an artist from the TUI 
2018/06/24 12:27:28 404 Not Found

Looks like a bad error, what's actually happening is it's not finding an 'active' playing device. I think if there used to not be an 'active' device then the API would auto select one. Now it appears you have to explicitly select one via a call like baton search artist foo -d {my_device_id} (note that all calls after this appear to work without the -d flag as the device would now be active).

Either need to get Spotify to change that functionality back, select the first device returned by baton devices, or allow people to select a default device.

Went ahead and filed a ticket here https://github.com/spotify/web-api/issues/924

Thanks for looking into this! Unfortunately this compounds with #13 to make me have to start playback on my phone (the -d flag doesn't do anything for my spotifyd device).

Looks like they accept it as a bug @christopher-dG so hopefully this gets resolved for you! I have a feeling that other issue is simply an issue with the API as well.

This is working for me now, presumably something changed upstream. I'll keep an eye out though.
