HowTo get selected songs

[crap_inhuman]

How can i get the selected songs through api ?

Using the well-known SDB.SelectedSongList return no result

[PetrCBR]

Code: Select all

var tracklist = uitools.getSelectedTracklist();

An example can be found in the SampleScript "fixTrailingThe", local.js, line 234, that also Show how to handle the Situation, if nothing was selected

Code: Select all

trackList = uitools.getSelectedTracklist()
if (!trackList || trackList.count == 0) {

    trackList = uitools.getTracklist()
}

if (!trackList || trackList.count == 0) {
    res = messageDlg("Select tracks to be updated", 'Error', ["btnOK"], {}, function(){})
    return
}

Thank you for your answers.

Is it possible with the COM interface, too?

[PetrCBR]

From COM interface you can get the tracks as JSON string using asJSON property (will be introduced in next build):

Code: Select all

tracks = SDB.runJSCode('function(){ var list = uitools.getSelectedTracklist(); if(!list || !list.count) list = uitools.getTracklist(); if(list) return list.asJSON; return ''; }();')

I try to convert the Discogs Tagger using Autoit3 scripting language - the script interact with MM using the COM interface. Works perfect with MM4. To get the script working with MM5 i need a COM interface as in MM4. This script is already finished.

Using the following code didn't return a object, so i would have to change the whole script.

Code: Select all

tracks = SDB.runJSCode('function(){ var list = uitools.getSelectedTracklist(); if(!list || !list.count) list = uitools.getTracklist(); if(list) return list.asJSON; return ''; }();')

I try to convert the script using the VBS2JS converter, too... But i don't know, if i can get it work sometime.

Re: Discogs Tagger

You might want to look at [MM5 install folder]/SampleScripts/customWebTagger.mmip (after install the sources will be in [MM5 install folder]/Scripts/customWebTagger/)

As i wrote, asJSON property will be introduced in next release.
