spotify-tui's Introduction

Spotify TUI

A Spotify client for the terminal written in Rust.

Demo

The terminal in the demo above is using the Rigel theme.

Installation

The binary executable is spt.

Homebrew (macOS)

brew install Rigellute/tap/spotify-tui

Cargo (Linux)

Eventually, there should be prebuilt binaries available in the Github release, but until then you can install via Rust's package manager cargo.

First, install Rust (using the recommended rustup installation method) and then

cargo install spotify-tui

This method will build the binary from source, so has the benefit of supporting more architectures.

I've only tested on Ubuntu and Debian, but I expect this to work on other Linux distros.

Manual

  1. Download the latest binary (currently only for macOS).
  2. cd to the file you just downloaded and unzip
  3. cd to spotify-ui and run with ./spt

Connecting to Spotify’s API

spotify-tui needs to connect to Spotify’s API in order to find music by name, play tracks etc.

Instructions on how to set this up will be shown when you first run the app.

But here they are again:

  1. Go to the Spotify dashboard
  2. Click Create a Client ID and create an app
  3. Now click Edit Settings
  4. Add http://localhost:8888/callback to the Redirect URIs - you don't need anything running on localhost, it will still work
  5. You are now ready to authenticate with Spotify!
  6. Go back to the terminal
  7. Run spt
  8. Enter your Client ID
  9. Enter your Client Secret
  10. You will be redirected to an official Spotify webpage to ask you for permissions.
  11. After accepting the permissions, you'll be redirected to localhost (blank webpage, might say something like "Connection Refused" since no server is running), copy the URL and paste into the prompt in the terminal.

And now you are ready to use the spotify-tui 🎉

You can edit the config at anytime at ${HOME}/.config/spotify-tui/client.yml.

Usage

The binary is named spt.

When running spotify-tui press ? to bring up a help menu that shows currently implemented key events and their actions.

Limitations

This app uses the Web API from Spotify, which doesn't handle streaming itself. So you'll need either an official Spotify client open or a lighter weight alternative such as spotifyd.

If you want to play tracks, Spotify requires that you have a Premium account.

Libraries used

Roadmap

The goal is to eventually implement almost every Spotify feature.

High level requirements yet to be implemented

  • Add songs to a playlist
  • Be able to like songs in every view, and see that a given track is already liked.
  • Unlike songs
  • See if a song is liked
  • Be able to scroll through result pages in every view
  • View Library "Made for you"
  • View Library "Artists"
  • Make the play bar hoverable with its own event handlers that would
    • Like the playing song
    • Navigate to song info
  • Implement seek (could use < and > to skip 5 seconds forwards and backwards)
  • Skip to next track (use n for next and p for previous)

This table shows all that is possible with the Spotify API, what is implemented already, and whether that is essential.
