How do I externaly get the list of tracks shown in Traktor's file browser?

Hello everyone!

I'm working on a QML D2 mod where data is sent through an API via POST using Javascript.

What I'm trying to achieve is to get Traktor's file browser data so I can replicate the current playlist on a remote screen. The data will be accessible through a web app on an iPad, mostly for feedback purposes (so I'm not staring at the computer when selecting a track while on stage).

Is there a way to get the current playlist data and the index of the selected track in the browser, sent via POST every time it changes? (maybe in a json format?)

Besides that, which would be the command to tell Traktor to "load the track on X playlist at Y index"? Or maybe there's a way to load files from an absolute path instead?

Basically, I'm trying to emulate the browsing capabilities of a D2 but in a web app.

I'm a software engineer but I'm lost on how to deal with QML files to achieve this.

I appreciate any feedback, thank you!

Looking forward to it. Will you release the source code at some point?

I'm curious to see what the solution looks like😲

I found the solution.

I just noticed this post today🙃

Maybe we can help you, but only if it's an open source project?

@lord-carlos asked about it on my GitHub.

I think you could get the entire current playlist from the Traktor.Browser object, but I haven’t found a reason to try it myself.

I don’t think there’s a way to load a track from a different playlist without switching to it first.
