Call external API when Track changes

[kellertobias]

I have an automated streaming Setup, with Macros and so on, all running as a NodeJS server. Part of this setup is to display lower thirds with song information. I wanted to write something like this myself and almost got it to work when I found your project.

Would it be possible to send out the currently Playing Tracks (tracks where the player would have the white border in Rekordbox) via a REST API to some server? Might probably be extremely easy, would also do a PR if appreciated.

Yeah that's definitely possible, could just add a line to this method to make the callout to a defined server:

unbox/src/index.js

Line 516 in 5e783f5

persistHistory() {

If you don't want to run your own API server, I'm also planning to push an update for Patreon subscribers somewhat soon that will allow them to send / get data from a server with a key provided in the app.

Just let me know what works best for you and I can set you up.

@erikrichardlarson seems like the place to do it, however I am working on a Kuvo-Proxy right now, you you have any insights into that topic?

Found out something.

The API endpoint that is called, when a track changes, is:
POST https://kuvo.com/liveplaylist/1.00/regist-play
it gets all the relevant information such as Title, Artist, Album.

I will check what else endpoints it will query and how to fake these queries/ query responses

Oh nice work, I haven't looked into this much, but I definitely want to explore this further. And I'd also like to do this for Serato. What are you using to inspect the requests here?

[kellertobias]

@erikrichardlarson check out this tool: https://docs.mitmproxy.org/stable/ it generates a proxy. You can also install an SSL Certificate generated by this proxy to allow HTTPS packet inspection. This is how I figured out which endpoints KUVO uses.
Later this can also be used to do the actual scripting, however I am woring on this part right now.

As soon as I have a working example, I'll post the repo here.

@erikrichardlarson check out https://github.com/kellertobias/kuvo-proxy

[erikrichardlarson]

awesome work! I'll give this a try and see if I can extend to Serato as well.

@erikrichardlarson I have migrated my app to node/electron, checkout my repo. also you can check out a little demo: https://www.dropbox.com/s/7g4tj39p6rylwe7/kuvo-proxy.mp4?dl=0

Dude this looks great, does your proxy work with Beatport link?

[kellertobias]

Isn’t beatport link a music streaming service such as Spotify? If rekordbox sends the data to kuvo, it will work. erikrichardlarson ***@***.***> schrieb am Mo. 5. Apr. 2021 um 22:47:

@erikrichardlarson I would add serato to the features of my app. do you have a running license and could gather some data?
