get `videoInfo` from url link about scraper

[Yimura]

Could you give a small example of your code? I don't seem to understand the issue at hand.

In the image it shows a list of found track titles but then when you select a track the title is undefined?

That quite fast response, here is the line https://github.com/Ayeven/generic-bot/blob/c87589523aefc7b87c0a95959b51239285b89698/base/track.js#L86 which I can't extract info from url link. I console log it, return empty array. The music is correctly playing the right track, but title become undefined since empty array. This is the full repo link : https://github.com/Ayeven/generic-bot

This is expected behavior as this Scraper just replicates the search from YouTube and parses the response data, if you were to fill in an URL in YouTube search it might return the expected video or it might not...

const { Scraper } = require('@yimura/scraper');
const ytsr = new Scraper();

ytsr.search("keywords");

=>

If YouTube doesn't return data for a link then we can't parse it, your code also seems incorrect as the return object for Scraper#search() is vastly different and doesn't contain the title property.

Example Return Object:

{
    channels: [
        { ... }
    ],
    playlists: [
        { ... }
    ],
    streams: [
        { ... }
    ],
    videos: [
        {
            description: String,
            duration: Number,
            uploaded: String,
            views: Number,
            channel: {
                name: String,
                link: String,
                verified: Boolean
            },
            id: String,
            link: String,
            thumbnail: String,
            title: String,
            shareLink: String
        }
    ]
}

if ((url.startsWith('https://www.youtube.com/')) || (url.startsWith('https://youtu.be')) || (url.startsWith('https://m.youtube.com'))) { const yt = await ytsr.search(url); console.log(yt); info = yt.videos[0].title ?? 'Unknown Track'; } Yeah, found the issue now, sorry to bug you, must've been rushing reading the #readme.
Edit :
console.log :
https://youtu.be/FHr3g1c11yw { channels: [], playlists: [], streams: [], videos: [] }
TypeError: Cannot read property 'title' of undefined. still seem not able to capture the title from url link

from youtube search

[Ayeven]

Sometime it able to capture the title

This inconsistency comes down to YouTube themselves.

I'm unable to reproduce your issue, seems to do what it is supposed to...

let info = ''; if ((url.startsWith('https://www.youtube.com/')) || (url.startsWith('https://youtu.be')) || (url.startsWith('https://m.youtube.com'))) { const yt = new Scraper(); const ytsr = await yt.search(id || url); info = ytsr.videos[0]?.title ?? 'Unknown Track'; } else if (url.startsWith('https://soundcloud.com/')) { const sc = await scdl.getInfo(url || id); info = sc.title; } else { info = 'Unknown Track'; } Lmao, some solution for that inconsistency, so far it can capture it, well it is from the video id. I'll see if the issue persist
