R Interface to Access Echo Nest API
Echo Nest API
The Echo Nest offers an incredible array of music data and services for developers to build amazing apps and experiences. Hundreds of music applications tap into The Echo Nest API for access to billions of data points about music from leading media companies (MTV, the BBC, MOG and others) to award-winning mobile applications (Discovr, Music Hunter, Pocket Hipster). This package covers most of the API endpoints.

1. search_artist
To search artist by using artist name.
Name, Description: One of name or description is required, but only one can be used in a query at one time.
Sort options: familiarity-asc, hotttnesss-asc, familiarity-desc, hotttnesss-desc, artist_start_year-asc,
artist_start_year-desc, artist_end_year-asc, artist_end_year-desc.
Years Active: Term "present" can be used to indicate an artist that is still active.
Description, Style, Mood: Each description style or mood term must be in its own parameter. Terms can be boosted. To boost a term use the caret, "^", symbol with a boost factor (a number) at the end of the term you are searching. The higher the boost factor, the more relevant the term will be. To prohibit a term from appearing in the result artists, prepend, a "-". To require a term, prepend a '+' (which must be encoded as %2b) or alternatively, to avoid having to encode the plus you can prepend a '^'.
Examples:
### Artist name
data1=search_artist(api_key,name="coldplay")
### using style and artist's end year detail
data2=search_artist(api_key,style="rock",artist_end_year_after = "present",results=36)
### using mood,description,style,sort,max and min hotttnesss

2. similar_artists
To search similar artists by using names or IDs.
Boosting: This method can take multiple seed artists. You an give a seed artist more or less weight by boosting the artist.

In case seeds are not meant to be equally valued, the boost can help clarify where along a spectrum each argument falls. The boost is a positive floating point value, where 1 gives the normal weight. It is signified by appending a caret and weight to the argument.

no more than 3 different songs in a row by the same artist
no more than 4 songs by the same artist in a 3 hour period
If limited_interactivity is set to true, skipped songs are not considered to have been played for limited interactivity
conformance purposes. If limited_interactivity is set to 'styleb', skipped songs are considered to have been played for
limited interactivity purposes.
Playlist Types:
artist-radio - plays songs for the given artists and similar artists
song-radio - plays songs similar to the song specified.
* genre-radio - plays songs from artists matching the given genre
Examples:
### using artist names

23. standard_static_playlist:
To return standard static playlist.
Song Type When generating a playlist, the song_type parameter can be used to restrict the playlist to songs that have a
matching song_type state. Currently supported song types are:
- christmas - songs that are appropriate to play during the Christmas holiday season
- live - songs that were performed in front of an audience
- studio - songs that were recorded in a studio
- acoustic - songs that created mostly with acoustic technology. This is a beta feature.
- electric - songs that created mostly with electric technology. This is a beta feature.
The song_type state can be one of the following values:
- true - only return songs tagged as given type. If no state is given, 'true' is assumed.
- false - only return songs not tagged as given type
- seed - only return songs that match the song_type of the seed(s)
- any - any songs can be returned, whether they match the type or not.
The syntax for setting a song type is as follows:
- song_type=christmas - sets christmas song type to true
- song_type=christmas:true - sets christmas song type to true
- song_type=christmas:false - sets christmas song type to false
- song_type=christmas:seed - sets christmas song type to match the seed
- song_type=christmas:any - sets christmas song type to any
Boosting: This method can take multiple seed artists or songs. You an give a seed more weight by boosting the item.
A boost is an affinity for an argument that gives it more or less weight when making calculations based on the argument. In
case arguments are not meant to be equally valued, the boost can help clarify where along a spectrum each argument falls.
The boost is a floating point value, where 1 gives the normal weight. It is signified by appending a caret and weight to
the argument. Prepending a seed with a '-' indicates that the item should be skipped.
Examples:
### using boosting and artist name
data1=standard_static_playlist(api_key,artist=c("adele","eminem^2"),results=50)
### using genre and song type
data2=standard_static_playlist(api_key,genre=c("pop","blues"),song_type="live",results=50,type="genre-radio")
### using genre, song type and adventurousness factor
data3=standard_static_playlist(api_key,genre=c("pop","blues"),song_type="live",results=50,type="genre-radio",adventurousness = 0.8)
24. similar_genres
To return similar genres to a given genre.
Examples:
### to give similar genres
data1=similar_genres(api_key,"rock")

To return basic playlist.
limited interactivity: When the limited_interactivity parameter is set to true, the playlist will conform to the following rules: no more than 2 songs in a row from the same album no more than 3 songs from an album in a 3 hour period no more than 3 different songs in a row by the same artist no more than 4 songs by the same artist in a 3 hour period
If limited_interactivity is set to true, skipped songs are not considered to have been played for limited interactivity conformance purposes. If limited_interactivity is set to 'styleb', skipped songs are considered to have been played for limited interactivity purposes.
Playlist Types: artist-radio - plays songs for the given artists and similar artists song-radio - plays songs similar to the song specified. * genre-radio - plays songs from artists matching the given genre
Examples:
### using artist names
data1=basic_playlist(api_key,artist = c("coldplay","maroon 5"),results = 36)
### using genre and partner catalog
data2=basic_playlist(api_key,genre=c("rock","rap"),results = 36,partner="spotify",type="genre-radio")
### using song ID
data3=basic_playlist(api_key,song_id = "SOYKZCH150A6E23DA1",limited_interactivity = "true",type="song-radio")
23. standard_static_playlist:
To return standard static playlist.
Song Type When generating a playlist, the song_type parameter can be used to restrict the playlist to songs that have a matching song_type state. Currently supported song types are:
- christmas - songs that are appropriate to play during the Christmas holiday season
- live - songs that were performed in front of an audience
- studio - songs that were recorded in a studio
- acoustic - songs that created mostly with acoustic technology. This is a beta feature.
- electric - songs that created mostly with electric technology. This is a beta feature.
The song_type state can be one of the following values:
- true - only return songs tagged as given type. If no state is given, 'true' is assumed.
- false - only return songs not tagged as given type
- seed - only return songs that match the song_type of the seed(s)
- any - any songs can be returned, whether they match the type or not.
The syntax for setting a song type is as follows:
- song_type=christmas - sets christmas song type to true
- song_type=christmas:true - sets christmas song type to true
- song_type=christmas:false - sets christmas song type to false
- song_type=christmas:seed - sets christmas song type to match the seed
- song_type=christmas:any - sets christmas song type to any
Boosting: This method can take multiple seed artists or songs. You an give a seed more weight by boosting the item. A boost is an affinity for an argument that gives it more or less weight when making calculations based on the argument. In case arguments are not meant to be equally valued, the boost can help clarify where along a spectrum each argument falls. The boost is a floating point value, where 1 gives the normal weight. It is signified by appending a caret and weight to the argument. Prepending a seed with a '-' indicates that the item should be skipped.
Examples:
### using boosting and artist name
data1=standard_static_playlist(api_key,artist=c("adele","eminem^2"),results=50)
### using genre and song type
data2=standard_static_playlist(api_key,genre=c("pop","blues"),song_type="live",results=50,type="genre-radio")
### using genre, song type and adventurousness factor
data3=standard_static_playlist(api_key,genre=c("pop","blues"),song_type="live",results=50,type="genre-radio",adventurousness = 0.8)
24. similar_genres
To return similar genres to a given genre.
Examples:
### to give similar genres
data1=similar_genres(api_key,"rock")
