Issues

As I am now for the foreseeable future cancelling any work on this package (because of no paid Apple Dev account) I will leave a list of issues with this package.

• The code quality is overall quite bad
• It isn't written in TypeScript nor have TS types
• The code should be built with promises in mind, not have them lazily patched on with a subpath (node-musickit-api/promises)
• Personalised routes should not be lazily patched on with a subpath (node-musickit-api/personalized)
• Personalized routes require a hacky workaround by authorizing with MusicKit.js (the official web lib by Apple), then grabbing the token and saving it as a file. Ideally the package should be able to handle auth.
• There isn't a way to check if you are logged in without performing a query first (see: #10)
