node-internet-radio's Issues

getStationInfo returns undefined

I have async function and this code
var nowPlaying = await internetradio.getStationInfo(uri, (error, station) => error || station); console.log(nowPlaying);

but it returns undefined

Can someone help, please?

Look into security alerts

Github is saying there's badness going on with some of the dependancies. So look into that before the next NPM release.

Last version was not pushed to npm

Thanks for your work.

The last version of your package was not pushed to npm
https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-internet-radio

Can you push it?

thank you very much

Remove Circle CI and move to Github actions to run the tests

Refactor out async library and use ES6 async/await

No need for the async library anymore when we can do it natively and nicer with ES6 goodness.

Admittedly I'm kind of in the middle of some other projects right now, so I probably don't have the bandwidth to rip this apart, but I'd like to in the future. Unless somebody else wants to do it :D

Can't use https

If I use https, the query is unsuccessful. I have to use http.

don't write 80 port in request headers

Hi, please remove 80 port from the headers in the line icystream

You can test this stream http://stream4.slowradio.com/

watch metadata

How do I watch the now playing information, basically I know a icecast-stack use to watch for metadata to change, but the plugin has not been updated for a very long time, I am wondering if your plugin can watch for the metadata change?

Error: callback was already called

when calling internetradio.getStationInfo (like 3-4 time in couple of seconds) i'm getting"callback was already called" and "MaxListenersExceededWarning: Possible EventEmitter memory leak detected. 11 pipe listeners added. Use emitter.setMaxListeners() to increase limit", probably from async.parallel

Make stream metadata fetches respect HTTP 302 redirects

Currently fetching metadata from a stream that responds with a 302 will fail.

Icecast 2.4.2 uses "application/json; charset=UTF-8" as the Content-Type for status-json.xsl

Had to change line 32 of icecast.js from text/xml to what's listed for Content-Type below:

Access-Control-Allow-Origin:*
Cache-Control:no-cache
Content-Length:1285
Content-Type:application/json; charset=UTF-8
Date:Mon, 28 Nov 2016 04:02:01 GMT
Expires:Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT
Pragma:no-cache
Server:Icecast 2.4.2

Please add a proxy

Please add the ability to use a proxy to receive through StreamSource.STREAM

Remove Radionomy support

They're closing up shop.

Cross-Origin Request Blocked

I get this error whenever I try to get the station information.
Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource
(Reason: CORS header ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ missing)

This is the code I am using:

var nodeInternetRadio = require("node-internet-radio");
//http://stream.zeno.fm/bmv92smzzbruv
var testStream = "http://stream.zeno.fm/bmv92smzzbruv";
nodeInternetRadio.getStationInfo(testStream, function(error, station) {
  console.log(station);
  //console.log(error);
},nodeInternetRadio.StreamSource.STREAM);

I have searched for a solution elsewhere, but I was unable to find any information regarding this problem.

Information always returns from stream

I'm trying to use the getStationInfo method and it works, but always resolves to stream fetch.
Your tests are passing, however I can't resolve data by specifying (soutcast v1,v2,icecast)
These are the urls that I'm testing with:

const url = "http://ice1.somafm.com/groovesalad-128.mp3";
const url2 = "http://swr-swr3-live.cast.addradio.de/swr/swr3/live/mp3/128/stream.mp3"
const url3 = "http://1a-rock.radionetz.de/1a-rock.mp3"
const url4 = "http://23.27.51.2:6699"
const url5 = "http://tomoradio.servemp3.com:8000/listen.aac"

getStationInfo(url,(error,data) => {
    console.log('error ',error)
    console.log(data)
},StreamSource.STREAM // anything other than "stream" returns error.
)

Module times out on live365 streams

Hello,

We've been having trouble with a few of our affiliates who stream on live365. The node-internet-radio module times out on retrieving the metadata for these streams. The module attempts the icystream method for these streams.

Thanks for looking into this!

Update lodash due to a security alert

The version of lodash used in this project is being marked as a security alert on Github. We need to update it and test the library with the new version.

Feature: .pls format support

node-internet-radio cannot read PLS files.

PLS files contain simply a list of streaming urls in plaintext that node-internet-radio can currently read from. On my macOS, Safari, Firefox, and Chrome all can read PLS files.
