# :notes: Spotify Client for Mac OS X :notes: A nodejs app to control Spotify without leaving your terminal. Only works with Mac Os as it relies on AppleScript behind the scenes to communicate with the Spotify app. # Installation npm install spotify-cli-mac -g Client will be available under the alias `spotify` # Set-up In order to use the client, you'll need to set Spotify Credentials. You can do this by going to [developer dashboard](https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard/applications) and then creating a new application. Once you have created a new Spotify Application, just run the Spotify CLI with `spotify token` command to set your tokens. # Demo [![asciicast](https://asciinema.org/a/APkHEAAV5OEMtwH50kiz0Kkwk.svg)](https://asciinema.org/a/APkHEAAV5OEMtwH50kiz0Kkwk) # Usage spotify Commands: search|s [query...] Search for a (searches tracks by default) playlist|pl [username] Get user's public playlists, by default use username in config.json recommend|rec Recommend other songs based on the song currently playing. info|i Display information about the current track along with player status play [uri] Continue playing current track or play the track with the provided URI pause Pause the current track next|n Play the next track in the queue back|b Play the previous track mute|m Mute player unmute|u Unmute player volume|v Display player volume + [deltaVolume] Turn the volume up by given amount (0-100), default:10 - [deltaVolume] Turn the volume down by given amount (0-100), default:10 p Toggle play/pause replay|r Replay current track position|pos [newPosition] Get or set player position [mm:ss], e.g: pos 1:23 quit|q Quit Spotify :( open|o Open Spotify :) shuffle|ts Toggle shuffle on/off repeat|tr Toggle repeat on/off share|sh [type] Display share and copy value to clipboard token|tk Change Client Spotify tokens user|me Set Spotify Username lyrics|ly Display the lyrics of currently playing track Options: -h, --help output usage information -V, --version output the version number # Displaying Lyrics In order to be able to use the `lyrics` command, you will need to get a `Client Access Token` for the `Genius API`.
