Calameo media information could not be retrieved: Unknown book

Open on Drupal.org →
Created on 23 January 2025, 2 months ago

We installed the module on one of our projects. And we're getting an error message when we want to save a Calameo document with the complete url or the Calameo id.

The media is created, but we can't save because the error message blocks saving.

Drupal Core : 10.4.1
PHP : 8.3
media_entity_calameo : 1.0.3

Install the module, then try adding a calameo media with a url, for example, this sample calameo book available on their site :

https://www.calameo.com/read/0005709839fd7f02a8daf

The we have this error message :

Calameo media information could not be retrieved: Unknown book

"The media items have been created but have not yet been saved. Fill in any required fields and save to add them to the media library."

    As a matter of fact, the error is triggered because the Calameo API is unable to return any book information. The response is a 200 but contains following information :

    "response" => [
    "status" => "error"
    "version" => 2
    "requestid" => "t7scjv"
    "requests" => 9
    "error" => [
      "code" => 501
      "message" => "Unknown book"
    ]
  ]

    (see here for full list of error codes: https://developer.calameo.com/content/api/#errorcodes)

    It makes sense that Calameo::getMetadata() method returns an error message since `$data['response']['error']` is not empty.

    What I'd suggest, though, would be to change the level of the user-returned message to "Warning" since these errors do not prevent the media from being created. I think it could result in a better user experience.

    Any thoughts?
