napster.js

Getting Started

Include the napster.js source in your application after the dependent jQuery library. Once the source is loaded, the library must be initialized with an application key.

Napster.init({
  consumerKey: 'foo'
});

Initialization Options

| Attribute | Default | Description | | -------------- | -------------- | ------------- | | consumerKey | undefined | The application key | | version | 'v2.1' | API endpoint version. Please refer to developer.napster.com for available versions. | | catalog | 'EN' | The desired catalog locale | | player | 'player-frame' | The html element id where the player iframe will be embedded |

Authentication

The Member object exposes a methods for user sessions. Use the Napster.member.set(credentials) to manage sessions. After setting the member session information the player will automatically be reauthenticated.

Napster.member.set({
  accessToken: 'oauth access token',
  refreshToken: 'oauth refresh token'
});

Playback

The Napster object exposes a top-level player object that provides the necessary methods to manage playback.

Check if player is ready and authorize

Napster.player.on('ready', function(e) {
    Napster.member.set({accessToken: 'oauth access token'}); // If not set earlier
    Napster.player.auth();
}

Playing a track

Napster.player.play('Tra.5156528');

Pausing

Napster.player.pause();

Seek

For example, to seek to 0:10 in a given track:

Napster.player.seek();

Volume

Set volume between muted (0) and max (1.0)

Napster.player.setVolume(.5);

Data

The Napster object exposes some API convenience methods. There are methods for HTTP GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE. The first parameter determines if a secure request is made.

Napster.api.get(false, '/tracks/top', function(data) {
  Napster.player.play(data.tracks[0].id);
});

Events

There are a number of interesting playback-related events you can listen for:

• playevent: Starts, pauses, completes, etc.
• playtimer: Current time, total time, waveform data
• error: Bad things
• metadata
• ready
• playsessionexpired
• playstopped

Listening for player events is simple:

Napster.player.on('playevent', function(e) {
  console.log(e.data);
});

Napster.player.on('playtimer', function(e) {
  console.log(e.data);
});

Napster.player.on('error', function(e) {
  console.log(e.data);
});
