EN How to use the HTTP API in an script?

[Rexima]

Hey,

I want to use the HTTP API in my own custom script.

sinusbot.http({
                method: 'GET',
                url: 'http://127.0.0.1:8087/api/v1/bot/login',
                timeout: 6000,
                data:
                '{"username":"dev", "password":"dev", "botId":"149dcf02-2a06-4a79-9150-75c972ed8276"}'
              },
              function(error, response)
              {

                   
                    //var Response = JSON.parse(response.data);
                    sinusbot.log("Response: "+response.data);
              });

And this doesnt work. i got no valid response

1. Why do you want to use the HTTP-Api from a script?
2. read the documentation ^^
Doc.:
"General - Login: POST http://127.0.0.1:8087/api/v1/bot/login [...]"

so change

method: 'GET'

to

method: 'POST'

Okay thank you. Sorry i found everything i need on the script api.
But one thing is missing: How can i retrieve informations about a currently playing Youtube Playlist?

What i cant get, is the duration of the current playing yt music.
And the Event "trackEnd" gots triggered, but the track is playing.

I still don't understand why you want to use the HTTP-api, you can do most things with the scripting api (Doc: Webinterface > Help > Scripting)
(the new one has even more stuff --> Doc: https://www.sinusbot.com/docs/scripting/ (Requires v0.9.16) )

var engine = require('engine');
var media = require('media');
var event = require('event');

event.on('trackEnd', function(track, callback) {
    // do stuff
    engine.log('Track ' + track.title() + ' stopped playing');
});

// get the currently playing track:
var currTrack = media.getCurrentTrack();

But getting the duration is currently only possible via the HTTP-api I think:
POST to http://127.0.0.1:8087/api/v1/bot/i/:instanceId/status
and take a look at "queueLen" & "position"

EDIT/UPDATE: Now you can get the duration of a track with: track.duration()

Example Scenario: I need to log in and retreive the token, which I then pass from my script to my webinterface via url parameters. Because I will need the token for most requests.
Does this make sense or is there an easier way?
