A lightning-fast, unofficial public API to fetch the active audio streaming URLs for Sri Darbar Sahib (Golden Temple, Amritsar).
Developers building Sikh-centric mobile apps and websites often face a common issue: the SGPC provides Live Gurbani Kirtan and Daily Hukamnama audio, but their streaming server URLs and nocache parameters change periodically. Hardcoding these URLs inside your app will eventually cause it to break.
This API acts as a stable bridge. It constantly monitors the official SGPC website, extracts the active audio sources in real-time, caches them for performance, and serves them to your application via a clean JSON endpoint.
[https://api.ohlengr.com/](https://api.ohlengr.com/)
📡 Endpoint: Get Audio Links
Fetches the current, active URLs for both the Live Kirtan radio stream and the Daily Hukamnama MP3.
Request:
GET /
Response:
JSON
{
"success": true,
"links": {
"liveKirtan": "[https://live.sgpc.net:8442/](https://live.sgpc.net:8442/);",
"dailyHukamnama": "[https://hs.sgpc.net/uploadhukamnama/hukamnama.mp3](https://hs.sgpc.net/uploadhukamnama/hukamnama.mp3)"
},
"lastUpdated": "2026-05-13T05:30:00+00:00"
}
💻 Integration Examples
React Native / Expo (JavaScript)
Easily fetch the active links before loading your audio player (like react-native-track-player).
JavaScript
const fetchSgpcAudio = async () => {
try {
const response = await fetch('[https://api.ohlengr.com/](https://api.ohlengr.com/)');
const data = await response.json();
if (data.success) {
console.log("Live Kirtan URL:", data.links.liveKirtan);
console.log("Daily Hukamnama URL:", data.links.dailyHukamnama);
// Pass these URLs to your audio player component
}
} catch (error) {
console.error("Failed to fetch SGPC links", error);
}
};
Swift (iOS)
func fetchSgpcAudio() {
guard let url = URL(string: "[https://api.ohlengr.com/](https://api.ohlengr.com/)") else { return }
URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: url) { data, response, error in
if let data = data {
// Parse your JSON response here
if let jsonString = String(data: data, encoding: .utf8) {
print(jsonString)
}
}
}.resume()
}
Python
import requests
response = requests.get('[https://api.ohlengr.com/](https://api.ohlengr.com/)')
if response.status_code == 200:
data = response.json()
print("Live Kirtan URL:", data['links']['liveKirtan'])
