node-iTunes

A native node interface to interact with an iTunes process.

This module exposes iTunes' ScriptingBridge interface to node. This allows for controlling almost every aspect of your library programmatically with node!

You can even connect to a remote iTunes instance that's somewhere on your LAN, it doesn't have to be your local iTunes.

This currently requires node running on OS X to compile.

Example

var iTunes = require('iTunes');

iTunes.createConnection({
  username: 'uname',
  password: 'mysekretz',
  host: '192.168.0.14'
}, function (err, conn) {
  if (err) throw err;

  // Set the volume of iTunes to 50%,
  //   fire-and-forget style!
  conn.volume(50);

  conn.selection(function (err, selection) {
    // Get an Array of `Track`s containing the current selection
  });
});

API

Look at the iTunes Header File to see the API that it exposes. node-iTunes aims to wrap as much of that functionality as is practical (there's a lot of it though!).

If you come across a property or function that is missing from node-iTunes that you would like to use, then please open an Issue requesting it and it will be a priority.
