Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Apple MusicKit for React Native

A react native module for the Apple MusicKit ( iOS )

Supported Features

An Example project was developed to exercise and test all functionality within this library. If you are curious about how to use something, or need to compare your application setup to something that works, check there first.

Features

The following table shows the platform support for various Apple Music functionality within this library.

| Feature | iOS | |:-----------------------| :-: | | Auth | | authorize | ✅ | | checkSubscription | ✅ | | Player | | play | ✅ | | pause | ✅ | | togglePlayerState | ✅ | | skipToNextEntry | ✅ | | getCurrentState | ✅ | | addListener | ✅ | | removeListener | ✅ | | MusicKit | | catalogSearch | ✅ | | getTracksFromLibrary | ✅ | | setPlaybackQueue | ✅ |

Installation

npm install @lomray/react-native-apple-music
  • In your Podfile, set minimum IOS target for Pod installation:
platform :ios, 15.0
npx pod-install

iOS Requirements

  • Ensure your iOS deployment target is 15.0 or higher, as this library relies on the Apple MusicKit, which requires iOS 15.0+.
  • Add the following line to your info.plist file to include a description for the Media Library usage permission:
<key>NSAppleMusicUsageDescription</key>
<string>Allow to continue</string>
  • Ensure that your Apple Developer account has the MusicKit entitlement enabled and the appropriate MusicKit capabilities are set in your app's bundle identifier.
  • It's highly recommended to set a minimum deployment target of your application to 16.0 and above, because MusicKit requires it to perform a catalog search and some convertation methods.

Linking

As of React Native > 0.61, auto linking should work for iOS. There shouldn't be any modifications necessary and it Should work out of the box.

Usage

The @lomray/react-native-apple-music package provides a set of tools to interact with Apple MusicKit in your React Native application. Here's how to get started:

Importing the Module

First, import the necessary modules from the package:

import {
  Auth,
  Player,
  MusicKit,
  useCurrentSong,
  useIsPlaying,
} from '@lomray/react-native-apple-music';

Authentication

Before accessing Apple Music data, you need to authenticate the user and obtain permissions:

async function authenticate() {
  try {
    const authStatus = await Auth.authorize();
    console.log('Authorization Status:', authStatus);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Authorization failed:', error);
  }
}

Checking Subscription

Check if the user has an active Apple Music subscription:

async function checkSubscription() {
  const subscriptionStatus = await Auth.checkSubscription();
  console.log('Subscription Status:', subscriptionStatus);
}

Playing Music

Control playback using the Player module:

// Play music
Player.play();

// Pause music
Player.pause();

// Toggle between play and pause
Player.togglePlayerState();

// Skip to the next song
Player.skipToNextEntry();

Retrieving Playback State

Get the current playback state and listen for changes:

Player.getCurrentState().then(state => {
  console.log('Current Playback State:', state);
});

// Listen for playback state changes
const playbackListener = Player.addListener('onPlaybackStateChange', state => {
  console.log('New Playback State:', state);
});

// Don't forget to remove the listener when it's no longer needed
playbackListener.remove();

Managing Event Listeners

To maintain optimal performance and prevent memory leaks, it's important to manage your event listeners effectively. Here's how you can add and remove listeners using the Player class.

const playbackListener = Player.addListener('onPlaybackStateChange', state => {
  console.log('New Playback State:', state);
});
// This will remove all listeners for 'onPlaybackStateChange' event
Player.removeAllListeners('onPlaybackStateChange');

Searching the Catalog

Search the Apple Music catalog:

async function searchCatalog(query) {
  try {
    const types = ['songs', 'albums']; // Define the types of items you're searching for. The result will contain items among songs/albums
    const results = await MusicKit.catalogSearch(query, types);
    console.log('Search Results:', results);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Search failed:', error);
  }
}

Getting user's recently played songs or albums

Get a list of recently played items:

async function getTracksFromLibrary() {
  try {
    const results = await MusicKit.getTracksFromLibrary();
    
    console.log('User`s library Results:', results);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Getting user tracks failed:', error);
  }
}

Set a playback Queue

Load a system Player with Song, Album, Playlist or Station, using their ID:

async function setPlaybackQueue() {
  try {
    await MusicKit.setPlaybackQueue("123456", "album");
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Setting playback queue:', error);
  }
}

Using Hooks

The package provides hooks for reactive states in your components:

import React from 'react';
import { View } from 'react-native';
import { useCurrentSong, useIsPlaying } from '@lomray/react-native-apple-music';

function MusicPlayerComponent() {
  const { song } = useCurrentSong();
  const { isPlaying } = useIsPlaying();

  return (
    <View>
      {isPlaying ? 'Playing' : 'Paused'} - {currentSong?.title || 'No song playing'}
    </View>
  );
}
