#Developer-API

[nixcraft]

Modern software development be like: I wrote 10 lines of code to call an API that calls another API, which calls yet another API that finally turns on a lightbulb. Pray that Cloudflare or AWS will not be down during this operation; otherwise, there will be no light for you.

Progress:

Okay so the authentication for spotify is hard for me to understand and requires user authentication, then making a token request that while expire in an hour. So i focused on what I did know how to do and what I had access to token wise. The Spotify developer home page has a temporary access token for demos. I took that token and made a function to make get request to the API and two functions for top tracks and top artists. Then made some functions to print them in my terminal. Here is what my end product looked like in the terminal.

The data for tracks is proving to just show a years worth of listening even though I specified long_term in my get request.

Here is my code:

I tried just doing track.artist but Spotify handles that as multiple artists so I had to handle them as such.

Next Steps: Tackling the user authentication and token requests and including it in this code.

(Also yes I know that is a concerning amount of My Chemical Romance tracks. I had my MCR phase strike up again with a passion last October and I am still balls deep in it.)

REST APIs

REST (Representational State Transfer) is a type of API where all the information needed to perform an action is passed to the API at the time the request needs fulfilling. The server does not need previous knowledge of the clients session in order to fulfill their request.

The alternative to this is that the client having a 'session' with the server, where the server keeps information on the client while it's active, which can take up a lot of server processing power and memory. For large services handling possible hundreds of thousands of clients at a time, keeping a 'connection' can take up a lot of server processing and memory.

REST speeds up processing time for both the server and client. With sessions, they can end up split over multiple servers, meaning servers have to communicate to get data which can slow down response time. Because the server needs no prior knowledge of a client, any client can handle any client's request easily, which also makes load balancing easier, a request can be sent to any server that can handle it which is currently the least busy.

All REST APIs use HTTP methods. A client sends a request via HTTP to a specific endpoint (location on the web), along with all of the information needed to complete that request. The server will then process it and send back a response.

Core features of REST:

Client-Server Architecture - a client that sends requests to a server, or set of servers via HTTP methods.

Stateless - client information is not stored between requests and each request is handled as separate and unconnected.

Cacheability - data that is expected to be accessed often can be cached (saved for a set amount of time) on the client or server side to make client and server interactions quicker.

Uniform interface - no matter where an endpoint is accessed from, its requests have a standard format. Information returned to a client should have enough information and self description that the client knows how to process it.

Layered system architecture - calls and responses can go through multiple intermediate layers, but both the client and server will assume they're communicating directly.

Code on demand (optional) - the server can send executable code to the client when requested to extend client functionality.

Introduction to APIs and Web APIs

The illustration above is the best way you can think of how APIs work and I talk more about it in my new article about APIs. I really love the concept and logic of APIs, it proves that collaboration is a huge part of programming and APIs solidify that. I hope you enjoy the read and also this is my first article and I intend to write more about technologies that interest me and maybe tips and tricks in the future.

i finished shecodes week 5 homework, and now the app we're building has real-time temperature, as well as description of temperature, humidity and wind! you can search the city or you can get temperature of your current location!! this is really cool!

learning about api has being really exciting, so i made a simple page using meow-facts api where you click meow to get facts about cats, you can check the repository and the live page!

really excited to learn more about api!

ps: this sakura chocolate is the cutest thing! i almost didn't eat it 🥺

not to sound like a redditor again but holy fuck it’s actually so annoying to be smarter than most people and it creates actual problems in my life. I have to be so careful about anything I say because even if it’s correct, people my level and above me will feel like I am making them look bad or challenging their authority so every fucking thing I say has to be this careful construction of explaining the same thing over and over again until I can finally lead them to the right answer so they don’t feel like I’m smarter than them.

First Steps:

So I want to learn how to get access to the spotify api and my data first in my terminal. So I want to:

Get my top albums in terminal

Get my top artists in terminal

Get my top songs in terminal

If I figure it out really quick:

Add that json data into an xbar project on my Macbook

If that is easy then I'll add more stuff for when you click on xbar

Color scheme picker!

working on a color picker that gives you a scheme for the given color using color api! I am getting the colors now, and now I just need to display them hehe

As for as UI goes, this is a very lofi prototype of what I'm imagining

if you see something in my code that makes you go "oh my god that is terrible practice pls never do that" feel more than free to point it out lol, I'd just be happy

Project update

In June, when I started the jolt-jni open-source software project, I considered it a subsidiary project. However, it proved so absorbing that it soon soaked up most of my attention, leaving little for all my other projects.

This is surprising, since unlike most of my projects, it has no graphical component (yet) meaning no satisfying CGI images to enjoy (and perhaps share on social media).

Also unlike most of my projects, I was coding it from scratch, yet constrained by a preexisting API. In practice, that meant writing a ton of boring boilerplate. Prior to this I'd been scornful of the idea of using AI to generate code. But for generating boilerplate code, I can see that mechanical aids have their place.

Now that the library is about 80% complete, I've turned more of my attention to testing. My progress (measured in lines of code) is much slower. Some days I delete more code than I add. The good news is, I enjoy troubleshooting far more than coding.

For the record, here are the current statistics:

+ 1472 commits

+ Overall 48K lines of code (excluding comments and blanks)

+ 29K lines of Java (including 8K lines of tests and examples)

+ 17K lines of C++
