Re: Creating my first audio plugin: Melodice integration

Unfortunately this quite a bit dated. I'd rather start based on 
Slim::Plugin::OPMLBased. This base class provides easy ways to create 
the navigation menus. But you'll have to learn from code doing so...

The good news is there already is a Youtube plugin which should handle 
the hard part of getting playback of Youtube videos. From what I read 
this is painful. So be happy you don't have to deal with it :-).

All you might have to do is get the playlist data from melodice, then 
convert it into something the YT plugin understands (might be URLs like 
youtube://some-identifier), and queue up those tracks.

I'd ask them whether they have an API. Because parsing HTML is ugly and 
prone to errors. Though they seem to include the required data as a 
JavaScript object in the code. Eg. I found this for "qwirkle":

songs = [
     {
         'iid': '39676',
         'eid': 'eEYDnsLUHCA',
         'title': 'Though the Stars Still Stay Out',
     },{
         'iid': '10079',
         'eid': 'toXNVbvFXyk',
         'title': '"Resonant Chamber" - Animusic.com',
     },{
         'iid': '10082',
         'eid': 'M6r4pAqOBDY',
         'title': 'Animusic HD - Fiber Bundles (1080p)',
     },{
         'iid': '10081',
         'eid': 'YOQJxRCCpw8',
         'title': 'Animusic HD- Pogo Sticks (1080p)',
     },{
         'iid': '10084',
         'eid': 'Cgt4DEBQy50',
         'title': 'Animusic - Aqua Harp',
     },{
         'iid': '10085',
         'eid': 'OROAGNbsikQ',
         'title': 'Animusic - Acoustic Curves',
     },{
         'iid': '10080',
         'eid': 'hyCIpKAIFyo',
         'title': '"Pipe Dream" - Animusic.com',
     },
];

But as I said: an API would be much better and robust to use.
