API Integration Fixes

Issues Fixed

1. Response Format Handling

  • Added support for multiple API response formats:
    • { status: "SUCCESS", data: { results: [], total: 0 } }
    • { success: true, data: { results: [], total: 0 } }
    • Direct results arrays
    • Various nested data structures

2. Error Handling

  • Improved error messages with specific error types:
    • Network errors (no response)
    • API errors (server responded with error)
    • Invalid response format errors
  • Added user-friendly error messages

3. Audio URL Extraction

  • Enhanced getBestQualityUrl() to handle:
    • Array format with quality objects
    • Direct string URLs
    • Missing or null values
  • Added validation before playing songs

4. API Request Configuration

  • Increased timeout to 30 seconds for slower connections
  • Added request/response interceptors for debugging
  • Added proper headers

5. Song Validation

  • Added checks before playing songs
  • Filter out songs without valid audio URLs in "Play All"
  • Show alerts when songs are unavailable

6. Debugging

  • Added console logging for API requests/responses
  • Better error logging with context
  • Request/response interceptors for troubleshooting

Testing the API

To verify the API integration is working:

  1. Check Browser Console:

    • Look for "API Request" and "API Response" logs
    • Check for any error messages

  2. Test Search:

    • Type in the search box
    • Verify results appear
    • Check that songs have images and can be played

  3. Test Playback:

    • Click on a song
    • Verify it starts playing
    • Check mini player appears

  4. Common Issues:

    • CORS errors: The API should handle CORS, but if you see errors, check browser console
    • No results: Verify the API endpoint is accessible
    • Audio not playing: Check that songs have valid downloadUrl arrays

API Endpoints Used

  • GET /api/search/songs?query={query}&page={page} - Search songs
  • GET /api/songs/{id} - Get song details
  • GET /api/artists/{id} - Get artist details
  • GET /api/artists/{id}/songs - Get artist songs
  • GET /api/artists/{id}/albums - Get artist albums

Response Structure

Search Response (Expected)

{
  "status": "SUCCESS",
  "data": {
    "results": [...],
    "total": 24551,
    "start": 1
  }
}

Song Response (Expected)

{
  "success": true,
  "data": [
    {
      "id": "...",
      "name": "...",
      "downloadUrl": [
        { "quality": "320kbps", "url": "..." }
      ],
      "image": [
        { "quality": "500x500", "url": "..." }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Next Steps

If you're still experiencing issues:

  1. Open browser DevTools (F12)
  2. Check the Network tab for API requests
  3. Check the Console tab for errors
  4. Verify the API base URL is correct: https://saavn.sumit.co
  5. Test the API directly with curl or Postman
