import { createStore } from '@composable-svelte/core';
import {
  MinimalAudioPlayer,
  FullAudioPlayer,
  audioPlayerReducer,
  createInitialAudioPlayerState
} from '@composable-svelte/media';

// Create player store
const playerStore = createStore({
  initialState: createInitialAudioPlayerState({
    tracks: [
      {
        id: '1',
        title: 'Summer Breeze',
        artist: 'Jazz Ensemble',

}

Complete Example

<script lang="ts">
import { createStore, Effect } from '@composable-svelte/core';
import {
  VoiceInput,
  voiceInputReducer,
  createInitialVoiceInputState
} from '@composable-svelte/media';

// Create voice input store with transcription
const voiceStore = createStore({
  initialState: createInitialVoiceInputState({
    mode: 'push-to-talk'
  }),
  reducer: voiceInputReducer,
  dependencies: {
    // Send audio to Whisper API for transcription
    onAudioData: async (audioBlob: Blob) => {
      const formData = new FormData();
      formData.append('file', audioBlob, 'recording.webm');
      formData.append('model', 'whisper-1');

      const response = await fetch('https://api.openai.com/v1/audio/transcriptions', {
        method: 'POST',
        headers: {
          'Authorization': `Bearer ${OPENAI_API_KEY}`
        },
        body: formData
      });

      const { text } = await response.json();
      return text;
    }
  }
});

// Toggle recording mode
function toggleMode() {
  const newMode = $voiceStore.mode === 'push-to-talk' ? 'conversation' : 'push-to-talk';
  voiceStore.dispatch({ type: 'setMode', mode: newMode });
}
</script>

<div class="voice-container">
  <VoiceInput
    {voiceStore}
    showWaveform={true}
    showTimer={true}
  />

  <!-- Mode toggle -->
  <button onclick={toggleMode}>
    Mode: {$voiceStore.mode}
  </button>

  <!-- Display transcript -->
  {#if $voiceStore.transcript}
    <div class="transcript">
      <strong>Transcript:</strong>
      <p>{$voiceStore.transcript}</p>
    </div>
  {/if}

  <!-- Error display -->
  {#if $voiceStore.error}
    <div class="error">{$voiceStore.error}</div>
  {/if}

  {#if $voiceStore.permissionDenied}
    <div class="warning">Microphone access denied</div>
  {/if}
</div>

Browser Permissions

Voice input requires microphone permissions. Handle permission flow:

// Check permission before recording
if ($voiceStore.permissionDenied) {
  // Show permission request UI
  alert('Please grant microphone access to use voice input');
}

AUDIO MANAGER

Purpose: Low-level audio management for custom implementations.

API

import {
  AudioManager,
  createAudioManager,
  getAudioManager,
  deleteAudioManager
} from '@composable-svelte/media';

// Create manager
const manager = createAudioManager({
  id: 'my-player',
  onTimeUpdate: (time) => console.log('Time:', time),
  onEnded: () => console.log('Ended'),
  onError: (error) => console.error('Error:', error)
});

// Load and play
await manager.load('/audio/track.mp3');
manager.play();

// Get existing manager
const existing = getAudioManager('my-player');

// Cleanup
deleteAudioManager('my-player');

TESTING PATTERNS

AudioPlayer Testing

import { TestStore } from '@composable-svelte/core';
import { audioPlayerReducer, createInitialAudioPlayerState } from '@composable-svelte/media';

const store = new TestStore({
  initialState: createInitialAudioPlayerState({
    tracks: [
      { id: '1', title: 'Track 1', url: '/audio/1.mp3', duration: 180 }
    ]
  }),
  reducer: audioPlayerReducer,
  dependencies: {}
});

// Test play
await store.send({ type: 'play' }, (state) => {
  expect(state.isPlaying).toBe(true);
});

// Test track change
await store.send({ type: 'nextTrack' }, (state) => {
  expect(state.currentTrackIndex).toBe(1);
});

VoiceInput Testing

import { TestStore } from '@composable-svelte/core';
import { voiceInputReducer, createInitialVoiceInputState } from '@composable-svelte/media';

const store = new TestStore({
  initialState: createInitialVoiceInputState(),
  reducer: voiceInputReducer,
  dependencies: {
    onAudioData: vi.fn((blob) => Promise.resolve('Test transcript'))
  }
});

// Test recording start
await store.send({ type: 'startRecording' });
await store.receive({ type: 'recordingStarted' }, (state) => {
  expect(state.isRecording).toBe(true);
});

TROUBLESHOOTING

AudioPlayer not playing:

• Check audio URL is accessible
• Verify browser autoplay policy (may require user interaction)
• Ensure audio format is supported (mp3, wav, ogg recommended)

VideoEmbed not loading:

• Verify URL format matches platform requirements
• Check platform embed permissions (some require API keys)
• Ensure platform allows embedding (some videos are restricted)

VoiceInput permission denied:

• User must grant microphone access
• HTTPS required (except localhost)
• Check browser compatibility (MediaRecorder API)
