In lukavuko/wrappify: An R Wrapper for the Spotify API

Feb 8 2021

Begun working on how to call the API
Created and registered a spotify application providing client credentials
Used .gitignore to hide client credentials 767ed3a32f932307c632eba835d9e97b629a190b
Begun writing out the song recommender function

Finished a rough primitive song recommender, authentication function, and query assembler to help process all 47 potential arguments to the song recommender eb4e3b734e10ace067ccc0deef247486cd2e3dcd

Decided to add an artist to ID and track to ID conversion function to let users more easily take advantage of the song recommender. They no longer need to manually search for IDs to use in the song recommender. Hopefully these ID converters can be integrated into the song recommender. bf0a9cdb2bb03adec28dec87de73545bb753dd1a

Updated project structure by creating an .Rproj file for package structuring. 07c062e0f11d43003fc41ee6069a349ea7aba188
Added documentation to my functions and wrote a description for the package. 07c062e0f11d43003fc41ee6069a349ea7aba188

Test writing complete. Users no longer need to use artist IDs in the song recommender, it will automatically find the artist ID based on the name(s) used. e304d7bd6febbbcc2a56eaedb14b6af02f984a33
Added many error handling aspects to my functions so they can deal with:
invalid or rundefined authentication tokens
no search returns for artist ID, track ID, and song recommendations e304d7bd6febbbcc2a56eaedb14b6af02f984a33

Decided collectively to hardcode in the API credentials since tests scripts were unable to run API calls outside of testthat statements. Now every function call will call on get_authentication_token using the hard-coded credentials. This also eliminates the possibility for undefined or expired tokens since they're always called fresh. I updated Eric's and Aditya's test scripts and R scripts to account for this. a990618f63785f68680a5e75991c9d3ffc524e97
Fixed errors in testscript formatting. 110dc75c4846876adb5682b9b40b5396956cc08a
Updated names of package scripts to better reflect their functionality fe964d450d7b3d4f448b2a9ecbb0b31b28f4200c

Reviewed all our code, split my functions and tests into multiple scripts for easy reference. Removed library calls in scripts for everyone and replaced it with inline library calling (package::function()). Edited tests and cleaned up functions so there's no redundancy across our code base.
Debugged all script code and example code to get github actions and travis builds to be passing. Added code coverage feature in the repo. f2798d9e8f838adb58cbce918d591aaa843eed6f
Created a vignette for my functions.
Modified the getAuthenticationToken function to first check if the token is valid before querying Spotify for the token again. This improved general package runtime. 8e3f7aa3ede0225dd448a5b4d9308d9f8d2349c9 79f4b39713c670a11ed4c690da844df24193d9b4
Installed qpdf for vignette processing. Removed the warning that was causing builds to fail on every push.
