Failed to detect an internet connection.

[LeBradshaw]

I just installed freyr, and although I do have an internet connection it doesn't seem to be able to reach out. I imagine it has something to do with firewall rules.

[LeBradshaw]

Read through an old ticket and tried disabling the net check, got this.

[miraclx]

A new release is yet to be cut. And the old releases still have now-invalid credentials.

Reinstall freyr using the latest version of the source code.

npm install miraclx/freyr-js

[LeBradshaw]

Okay, tried that but it doesn't seem to have changed anything. Got this during the install, so it could be related. It still says version 9.0, what should it say?

[LeBradshaw]

also checked the source instructions and triied the line from there

[miraclx]

It still says version 9.0, what should it say?

0.9.1

Try this instead

$ git clone https://github.com/miraclx/freyr-js
$ cd freyr-js
$ npm install
$ npm link

Now, try using freyr again. It should say 0.9.1

[LeBradshaw]

Thanks for reaching out! Unfortunately, now it says 0.10.0.... and still detects no internet connection. Maybe I should try on a different machine, but I can't help bt wonder what's causing that.

[miraclx]

Yeah, I just released 0.10.0. You can npm install that since it's up to date.

As for the network issue, there's still work to be done. Try adding --no-net-check to make sure freyr behaves correctly without the check. And we'll figure out why the check fails.

[LeBradshaw]

Cool! That's great to hear, I've been pretty stoked about this project.

here's the --no-net-check, it seems to be executing fine besides the network hitch.

[miraclx]

It hasn't made any network requests yet. It validated the input query and reported that it doesn't support YouTube links.

You have to use either a Spotify, Apple Music, or Deezer link.

[LeBradshaw]

Well how about that!

It still fails the net check, but seems to work if you skip it. After this I tried it in a directory that wasn't system32 and it worked beautifully! Fantastic!

[LeBradshaw]

It doesn't work for apple music, about to try Deezer.

[miraclx]

Seems like a weird link. Does that open in the browser? It normally doesn't say /song/, it says /album/.

[miraclx]

Apparently so! I just tested it with a custom link

https://music.apple.com/us/song/1699712652 opens a song-specific page, whereas the standard https://music.apple.com/us/album/delresto-echoes-feat-beyonc%C3%A9/1699712635?i=1699712652 highlights the song as part of the album.

I'll open an issue tracking the support of this format.

[LeBradshaw]

Indeed! and I can confirm that trying to download the whole album works fine.

[miraclx]

@LeBradshaw, I've added support for song-type URLs like in your case - https://github.com/miraclx/freyr-js/pull/552.

I'll cut a release as v0.10.1. After which, when you update, it should work just fine.

Thanks for contributing to making freyr more capable!

[miraclx]

As for the network connection issue, I think we should try a few things:

$ curl https://icanhazip.com
107.53.232.145

You should see an IP address, which represents your public IP.

If that works, we can proceed to more involved steps to find out what exactly is up with freyr

$ git clone https://github.com/miraclx/freyr-js
$ cd freyr-js
$ npm install

Now, let's step into an interactive node session to inspect

$ node
> let pip = await import("public-ip");
> pip.publicIp({ onlyHttps: true });
107.53.232.145

You should see the same IP address as earlier.

[miraclx]

Ping @LeBradshaw, whenever you find the time.

[LeBradshaw]

Sorry I didn't notice this! this is what I get.

[LeBradshaw]

Here is the IP I pulled, for the record. No issues there.

[miraclx]

Let's put await in front so we get the result of the promise.

$ node
> let pip = await import("public-ip");
> await pip.publicIp({ onlyHttps: true });
43.53.232.125

[LeBradshaw]

much of the same. I feel like I must be doing something wrong.

Also, I found something really weird. The track "Fly in the freedom" tries to pull from youtube music, but the file it tries to fetch is almost 600 megs. I don't think freyr is at fault, but I wonder what file it's trying to pull. https://music.apple.com/us/album/fly-in-the-freedom/915244168?i=915244220 the rest of the album works fine.

[miraclx]

you forgot the await in front of pip.public...

Thanks for noting that, I'll have a look.

[miraclx]

Looks like it's trying to download this - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lH_OmS4nvq8

😅 I didn't write any classifiers for YouTube Music, as I did YouTube which would've filtered this result out.

What you can do, for now.. for this particular track, is to force freyr to use the YouTube source

$ freyr -S youtube https://music.apple.com/us/album/fly-in-the-freedom/915244168?i=915244220

[miraclx]

Just realized the orignal issue may still persist.

@LeBradshaw, can you confirm if freyr works nominally on your end on the latest release?
