Tidal Search

Search for artists, albums, or tracks on Tidal and display results as a formatted table.

Commands

search artist

  • Usage: tidal-cli --json search --type artist --query "<query>"
  • Output: [{id, name}]

search album

  • Usage: tidal-cli --json search --type album --query "<query>"
  • Output: [{id, name, artist, year}]

search track

  • Usage: tidal-cli --json search --type track --query "<query>"
  • Output: [{id, name, artist}]

Instructions

  1. Parse $ARGUMENTS:

    • First word: search type (artist, album, or track)
    • Remaining words: the search query
    • If no arguments or missing search type, show usage: /tidal-search <artist|album|track> <query>
    • If no query provided after the type, ask the user to provide a search term
  2. Run the appropriate command based on search type:

    • artist: tidal-cli --json search --type artist --query "<query>"
    • album: tidal-cli --json search --type album --query "<query>"
    • track: tidal-cli --json search --type track --query "<query>"
  3. Parse the JSON array output and format as a markdown table:

    • artist: columns ID and Name
    • album: columns ID, Name, Artist, and Year
    • track: columns ID, Name, and Artist
  4. If the result array is empty, display: "No results found for <type>: <query>."

Error Handling

  • If exit code is non-zero, read stderr:
    • "Error: Not authenticated" → "You need to authenticate first. Run /tidal-auth to log in."
    • "Error: Unable to connect to Tidal" → "Network error: unable to reach Tidal. Check your internet connection."
    • Any other error → display the raw error message with label "Error:"
