Spotify Listen Together

⚠️ Not working anymore ⚠️

I'm not using Spotify anymore so I have no real motivation to continue maintaining this project.

### This project is still in development and testing. Please keep this in mind! Spotify Listen Together is an extension for [Spicetify](https://spicetify.app/) and an alternative solution to Spotify's Group Session.

Creating a Server

To listen together with others, you must first create a server for everyone to join to. To get started, go to Spotify Listen Together Server or host with Heroku.

Joining a Server

Press "Join a server" in the menu and enter the server's address and your name.

Playing, Seeking, and Pausing Songs

Only the hosts are able to change, seek, and pause songs. To become a host, press "Request host" in the menu and enter the password set by the server.

Disconnecting From a Server

Press "Leave the server" in the menu.

Examples

Example of the website:

TODOs (For both the client and the server)

• Change "server" to "room". Have multiple rooms per server.
• Fix unexpected behavior when selecting the song that is currently playing.

The same issue is described in the following:
Issue #7
Issue #8

Stops the music when you connect to the server

So basically when I connect to my server it pauses my music and need to be host to be able to play music again. Its kinda annoying as I need to find the playlist again and play it. Not sure if its a bug or not. But if not add this as a feature and maybe like give them a option to put the host password before connecting.

TypeError: Invalid Spotify URL

Having some trouble getting connected to the server. I am hosting the server with heroku and the link is https://sicetify-listen.herokuapp.com/

However, when I try to connect to this server in Spicetify, I immediately get TypeError: Invalid Spotify URL.

Item could not be created: We couldn't deploy your app because the source code violates the Salesforce Acceptable Use and External-Facing Services Policy.

When i try to make a server on Heroku it shows this error

Bug - Causes spacing issues with volume slider

Installed:

Join server button does not work.

The join server button does not work. When I click on join server, the modal closes and nothing happens, I see no prompt to enter the URL. HOw do I fix this?

cant request host

I did all the things to set up a server but the "request host" button is grayed out. Any solution to this?

Listen Together trying to connect to *IP Address*

Server GUI works in the Browser so it must be an issue with the Spicetify extension

Keep getting disconnected (Can't request host)

I'm trying to host my own server using Heroku. I forked this repo and clicked on the button in the readme to host on heroku.

The deployment went pretty smoothly. I connected to the server from the app but I get disconnected very often. When I try to request host I get disconnected as well.

I don't see any errors in the server logs either

Heruko Says The Code Violates Its Services

So i tryed to deploy and well heruko said it violates its services and cant continue any alternative or solution ?

Not all of the audio player controls are handled

For example, when pressing the pause/play button with the mouse it works fine(if you're not the host, it won't do anything).
But the space button, on the other hand, pauses/plays normally even when you aren't the host.
