Ability to use Spotify about discord-musicbot

[LewdHuTao]

Im sure it is not possible to play songs directly from spotify. Lavalink doesn't support playback from spotify it can only convert spotify link to youtube link. Also spotify have strict DRM that is impossible to bypass.

Ah, in that case do you know anyway that maybe could possibly make this suggestion work. As sending a Spotify song for it to play the clean YouTube version is pretty annoying, especially when you have to then search for it to get the correct song?

If you use your own lavalink you can use LavaSrc plugins in your lavalink. It can search more accurate search results on youtube when you play song using spotify links.

If you want to use LavaSrc you need to disable spotify plugins in this code. So go to djs-bot/lib/clients/Erela.js search for line 168 and do this

plugins: [ 
     new deezer(), 
     new AppleMusic(), 
     // new spotify(), 
],

This isn't part of the current plan for v5.x, It might be considered as a possible alternative in future versions. If you want to see the feature in the bot you can contribute to the project and it will be greatly appreciated!

Keep in mind that spotify links are still natively accepted by lavalink
