How to Use

Initialization

var PlayMusic = require('playmusic');
var pm = new PlayMusic();
pm.init({email: "email@address.com", password: "password"}, function() {
  // place code here
})

Retrieve list of all tracks in your library (uploaded tracks and tracks added to library from All Access)

    pm.getAllTracks(function(library) {
        var song = library.data.items.pop();
        console.log(song);
        pm.getStreamUrl(song.id, function(streamUrl) {
            console.log(streamUrl);
        });
    });

Search for a song

    pm.search("bastille lost fire", 5, function(data) { // max 5 results
        var song = data.entries.sort(function(a, b) { // sort by match score
            return a.score < b.score;
        }).shift(); // take first song
        console.log(song);
        pm.getStreamUrl(song.track.nid, function(streamUrl) {
            console.log(streamUrl);
        });
    }, function(message, body, err, httpResponse) {
        console.log(message);
    });

Retrieve Playlists

    // gets all playlists
    pm.getPlayLists(function(data) {
        console.log(data.data.items);
    });

    // gets all playlists, and all entries on each
    pm.getPlayListEntries(function(data) {
        console.log(data.data.items);
    });

Retrieve the Stream URL for a song by track.storeId (All Access songs only!!!)

    pm.getStreamUrl("Thvfmp2be3c7kbp6ny4arxckz54", console.log);

Retrieve the Stream URL for a song by track.id (uploaded songs only!!!)

    pm.getStreamUrl("84df1e4e-6b76-3147-9a78-a44becc28dc5", console.log);

Retrieve information about an album or artist (All Access Only!!!)

    // getArtist - artistId, albumList, topTrackCount, relatedArtistCount[, success, error]
    pm.getArtist('Ak6zkmv2zbbsaxl63cgsnx5ttcm', true, 2, 2);

    // getAlbum - albumId[, success, error]
    pm.getAlbum('Bfn67zo6q3ekh35eaorkq5untmi');

Get Google Play Music Settings

    pm.getSettings();

Console Mode!

npm install playmusic
node

var pm = new (require('playmusic'));
pm.init({email: "email", password: "password"}, function() {});

// wait for a second or two to make sure you're logged in.

pm.getPlayLists();
pm.getPlayListEntries();

// getArtist - artistId, albumList, topTrackCount, relatedArtistCount[, success, error]
pm.getArtist('Ak6zkmv2zbbsaxl63cgsnx5ttcm', true, 2, 2); 

// getStreamUrl for All Access - sj#track -> storeId
pm.getStreamUrl('Tsbbwp6r2wpwxb55noc6b26kwq4');

// getStreamUrl for uploaded - sj#track -> id
pm.getStreamUrl('84df1e4e-6b76-3147-9a78-a44becc28dc5');


// Find all uploaded tracks (tracks returned by getAllTracks without a storeId), get a streamUrl for one of them
var allTracks;
pm.getAllTracks(function(data) { allTracks = data.data.items; });
var searchResults = allTracks.filter(function(track) { return typeof track.storeId === "undefined"; });
console.log(searchResults[0]);
pm.getStreamUrl(searchResults[0].id);
