Useful jq Filters

For JSON processing, see the jq skill on ClawdHub.

# Recent tracks: artist - track
jq '.recenttracks.track[] | "\(.artist["#text"]) - \(.name)"'

# Top artists: name (playcount)
jq '.topartists.artist[] | "\(.name) (\(.playcount))"'

# Check if currently playing
jq '.recenttracks.track[0] | if .["@attr"].nowplaying == "true" then "Now playing: \(.artist["#text"]) - \(.name)" else "Last played: \(.artist["#text"]) - \(.name)" end'

Notes

  • No auth needed for read-only endpoints (just API key)
  • Rate limit: be reasonable, no hard limit documented
  • URL-encode artist/track/album names (spaces → 
    +
    or 
    %20
    )
  • Images come in sizes: small, medium, large, extralarge
