A Chrome Extension for searching an artist's upcoming tour dates just by highlighting their name.
Built over the course of about 6 hours at the August 2017 Songkick Hackday ⛏
Built with React. Originally generated using react-chrome-extension-boilerplate.
API requests are made via a proxy Express server hosted on Heroku, which gets around the lack of Songkick API CORS support, and keeps the API key from being passed openly from the client.
yarn dev to spin up a dev environment.
yarn build to create a packaged Chrome extension
- Actually write some unit tests! (It was a hackday project)
- Store state in Redux rather than component state
- Show a Spotify web player for the artist
- Get additional artist data, social links, etc. from MusicBrainz
- Use MusicBrainz
endeddata point to hide track links if artist is no longer alive - Use Songkick oAuth to let a user track artists and mark event attendance from within the extension
