Can't get current track data about jxa-cookbook

Yes, it’s broken. Can you try using the selection instead?

var track = Application('iTunes').selection()[0]

It returns undefined.

I got exact track name on Apple Music by Application("iTunes").sources()[2].playlists()[0].tracks()[0].name();. But It returns error when playing local tracks. hmm...

So Apple Music is unpredictable and of course undocumented. What a surprise. You could update the Wiki about Apple Music. I personally do not care for it.

In this case, most likely you have to iterate through .sources() for a specific property then use .playlists()[0] (hopefully always 0) and then tracks()[0] (again hopefully always 0, and tracks[0] should work too).

.sources can contain any kind of source (including a plugged in iPhone/iPod), so you definitely have to filter it. The Apple-provided guide shows what properties a source can have.

iTunes fixed it
