Error creating a new playlist via the API

Postby zeaklous » Wed Dec 14, 2022 3:18 am

Hey there. Thanks for making Subsonic!

When I try to create a playlist via the Python API, I am getting the following error:

Code: Select all
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "gmusic_export.py", line 118, in <module>
    if create_playlist(conn, PLAYLIST_NAME, playlistSongs):
  File "gmusic_export.py", line 74, in create_playlist
    playlists=connection.createPlaylist(name=playlistname,songIds=playlistSongs)
  File "/home/zs/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/libsonic/connection.py", line 758, in createPlaylist
    res = self._doInfoReq(req)
  File "/home/zs/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/libsonic/connection.py", line 2782, in _doInfoReq
    dres = json.loads(res.read().decode('utf-8'))
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/json/__init__.py", line 357, in loads
    return _default_decoder.decode(s)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/json/decoder.py", line 337, in decode
    obj, end = self.raw_decode(s, idx=_w(s, 0).end())
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/json/decoder.py", line 355, in raw_decode
    raise JSONDecodeError("Expecting value", s, err.value) from None
json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 2 column 1 (char 2)


I'm guessing the response isn't in JSON format but the spec says it should be. Any idea how to remedy this?

The Python API is not officially supported. Not sure what's up, but there is a flag on the URL to ensure that the data is JSON back and forth, and I couldn't say what's up with this specifically.
