No search results for "Adventure Club" about spotify.py HOT 7 CLOSED

Thanks for reporting this :)

• What version of spotify.py are you running?
  • the identifier can be found as the attribute spotify.__version__
• Are you using the sync module or the pure async interface?

from spotify.py.

Got it. According to https://spotifypy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart.html:
"Encode spaces with the hex code %20 or +."

So this works as expected:

client.search("Adventure%20Club", types=["artist"])

{'artists': [<spotify.Artist: "Adventure Club">,
  <spotify.Artist: "Adventure Club">,
  <spotify.Artist: "Ragtime Adventure Club">,
  <spotify.Artist: "Super Adventure Club">,
  <spotify.Artist: "Adventure Bathtub Club">,
  <spotify.Artist: "Super Adventure Club">,
  <spotify.Artist: "Admiral Spooks Aerial Adventure Club">]}

So my original issue is resolved.

Still, I'd suggest to mention this -- as well as the link to the readthedocs -- more prominently. The projects readme has very minimal info only and does not link to the readthedocs.

from spotify.py.

(I'm using v0.4.8, async.)

from spotify.py.

Adding to the above, encoding space with + did not work:

client.search("Adventure+Club", types=["artist"])

{'artists': []}

from spotify.py.

Got it. According to https://spotifypy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart.html:
"Encode spaces with the hex code %20 or +."

The library handles encoding the search query for you.

Still, I'd suggest to mention this -- as well as the link to the readthedocs -- more prominently. The projects readme has very minimal info only and does not link to the readthedocs.

I agree the readme is a little bare, I'll work on making it more informative.

I am unable to reproduce the issue testing with sync on v0.5.0

I suggest updating the library to resolve your issue.
