📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes introduce a new markdown file that details a media search functionality for media players and updates the core media player documentation. The new file outlines the implementation logic for the asynchronous async_search_media method in a sample MyMediaPlayer class, which filters search results using a query and a list of media classes. The documentation update adds a new supported feature, SEARCH_MEDIA, and provides guidance on implementing and utilizing the asynchronous search method.

Changes

File(s) Change Summary
blog/2025-04-01-search-media-play.md Added a new markdown file outlining the media search functionality. It includes an example implementation of the async_search_media method in the MyMediaPlayer class, demonstrating how to filter and return search results.

🪧 Tips

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

  • Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
    • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
    • Generate unit testing code for this file.
    • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
  • Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
    • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
  • PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai gather interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table. Additionally, render a pie chart showing the language distribution in the codebase.
    • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
    • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
    • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.

5-5: Correct spelling mistake in title.
The title currently reads "Sarching in media players". Replace it with "Searching in media players" to fix the typo.


12-12: Refine instructional phrasing.
Change "Inside of async_search_media" to "Inside async_search_media" to avoid redundancy and improve clarity.


22-22: Fix typo in code comment.
In the code snippet, update "reqested" to "requested" in the comment within the async_search_media method.

70-70: Adjust table pipe style for SEARCH_MEDIA row.
The table row for SEARCH_MEDIA has a trailing pipe that does not comply with the expected leading-only format per MD055. Remove the trailing pipe to ensure consistency with the rest of the table.

70-70: Enforce consistent table pipe style.
The new SEARCH_MEDIA row uses leading and trailing pipes. Adjust the row to use only a leading pipe (and no trailing pipe) to conform with the established markdown table style guidelines.

206-206: Correct typographical error in the code comment.
Change “reqested” to requested for clarity in the sample implementation.


213-213: Clarify filtering instructions for search results.
The sentence “A user can also further filter the search results by only requesting a list of MediaClass.” should explicitly describe how developers can apply such filtering. Consider including a brief example or reference to where filtering is handled.

blog/2025-04-01-search-media-play.md (3)

10-10: Refine phrasing for clarity.
Change “The users can filter the search result by a search query and a list of MediaClasses that the returned results should have.” to a more direct statement, for example: Users can filter search results by providing a search query and specifying a list of desired MediaClasses.


12-12: Simplify redundant phrasing.
Replace “Inside of async_search_media” with Inside async_search_media to eliminate redundancy and maintain a concise tone.


22-22: Correct typographical error in the sample code.
Amend the comment “# search for the reqested media on your library client.” by changing “reqested” to requested.
