A lightweight spotify CLI
Project description
spoppy
Lightweight Spotify Command-Line interface for Linux
Requirements
See requirements.txt for required python packages.
You will need a Spotify Premium account.
You will need libspotify, libffi-dev and libasound2-dev installed. Use your distribution’s package manager.
For DBust integration you’ll need python-dbus and python-gobject2. Use your distribution’s package manager. Spoppy will work without these packages but won’t expose it’s DBus procedures.
Installation
pip install spoppy
To install globally you will probably need superuser privileges.
After installation run spoppy
in your terminal and you’re all set!
Development
NOTE: This is kind of broken at the moment, see issue #60
Create python3.4+ virtualenv
(optional) Create an ENV file containing these values:
export SPOPPY_USERNAME=your-username
export SPOPPY_PASSWORD=hunter2
Clone this project
Activate your virtualenv
(if you did #2) Source your ENV file
Install requirements
pip install -r requirements.txt
Run
python spoppy.py
(if you did not create an ENV file you can runpython spoppy.py USERNAME PASSWORD
)
DBus integration
Run make install_dbus
Make sure you have python-gobject2 installed
Symlink gobject (and possibly glib) to your virtualenv
ln -s /usr/lib/python3.5/site-packages/gobject/ $VIRTUAL_ENV/lib/python3.5/site-packages/gobject
ln -s /usr/lib/python3.5/site-packages/glib/ $VIRTUAL_ENV/lib/python3.5/site-packages/glib
The service will be available at “/com/spoppy” (f.x.
