I used the Itunes pulgin : https://marketplace.coronalabs.com/corona-plugins/itunes
and successfully built and ran on device (iPad). A panel showed up for picking the songs in my apple music library. I picked a song from the list to play and it showed the error below in the simulator. I am sure that I already downloaded the all songs on my iPad (able to play offline). Here’s the error:
\*\*\* Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'Corona Runtime Error', reason: '/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/67F71AC0-7859-4BBE-A1C9-09827CCA1120/Documents/.CoronaLive/main.lua:85: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)'
I used exactly the code in the document. No change at all:
local iTunes = require( "plugin.iTunes" ) --Table to store media items local mediaItems = {} -- Function that is executed when song playback is complete local function onPlaybackEnded() print( "Playback completed!" ) end -- Function that is executed after media item(s) have been chosen local function onMediaChosen( event ) if ( event.data ) then for i=1,#event.data do mediaItems[i] = event.data[i] end --play the first item chosen iTunes.play( mediaItems[1].url, onPlaybackEnded ) -------- line 85 -\> error right here , I guess url is nil end end local iTunesOptions = { allowsPickingMultipleItems = true, promptTitle = "Select some songs" } iTunes.show( iTunesOptions, onMediaChosen )
I think the error is at this line with the url property being nil:
iTunes.play( mediaItems[1].url, onPlaybackEnded ) -------- line 85 -\> error right here , I guess url is nil
I also tried to code in XCode, using Music Kit, and the URL retrieved from MPMediaItem is also nil. I can print out the song name, artist but the url and lyrics are nil.
Do you have any suggestion? I want to play the songs and print out lyrics. Thank you.
