This commit introduces the ability to fetch and parse additional pages of content in the `getHome` method of the `YTMusic` class by utilizing a continuation token. The previous implementation only fetched the initial page of content. Now, after parsing the initial page, the method checks for a continuation token and continues to fetch and parse subsequent pages until no continuation token is found, allowing for complete retrieval of home page content. Additionally, there has been a minor change in the `SongParser.parseSearchResult` method where the logic to identify the title and artist from search results has been simplified due to the impossibility of distinguishing them with the current data structure. The new approach uses fixed positions in the columns array to assign title and artist. |

YTMusic API
YouTube Music API (Unofficial) is a YouTube Music data scraper. It comes with TypeScript support API for return types. The NPM package can be found here
Motivation
I used to use youtube-music-api as my youtube music api data scraper. I liked looking into the source code of how it works but it never made sense to me. I also didn't like that there were no TypeScript annotations for the return types of methods. Because of this, I decided to build my own version of a youtube music api with TypeScript annotations, testing and written in a way I can understand.
Features
- TypeScript Support for data return types
- Data from YouTube can be inconsistent but YTMusic API has been tested and the data matches the TypeScript types 95% of the time
- Scrape information directly from YouTube Music API
- Search Suggestions
- Songs
- Videos
- Artists
- Albums
- Playlists
- Lyrics
Usage
import YTMusic from "ytmusic-api"
const ytmusic = new YTMusic()
await ytmusic.initialize(/* Optional: Custom cookies */)
ytmusic.search("Never gonna give you up").then(songs => {
console.log(songs)
})
Credits
A lot of the credit should go to youtube-music-api. I build this package as a refactored and tested version of youtube-music-api with TypeScript annotations
Testing
YTMusic API's data return types are tested with Bun Test. To run the tests, run the command
$ bun test
Built with
- NodeJS
- TypeScript
- ESLint
- Miscellaneous
- TypeScript
