MMM-Spotify

Hello,

i installed this module today. Works perfect, thanks for this great work :-) I just overwrited the css a little bit, hope this is ok for you!

And now my question: is it possible to show this module only on my mirror when i play music on it? Because when i am not at home i think my music selection isnt very interessting for my girlfriend :-D

Thank you

Frankly said, I didn’t test, but module would work only under same network. But I might be wrong. I hope there be who can explain it clearly. Or i’ll test it on monday by myself.

Spotify is account linked, so actually, the module will display what is currently played on any devices linked to the same account ( same client ID/secret) even out of your network. I tested with a Spotify family , even different email are linked to the main account. So I can not think of a solution right now.

@kwaeksler I think I can add device limitation to display or control. I’ll consider it on updates.

@Sean That sounds great :-) Thank you!

@Sean @ejay-ibm I’ve got a Spotify Premium account now so I was giving MMM-Spotify another shot, but I am stuck at instructions step #4.

I am logged in however I get INVALID_CLIENT: Invalid redirect URI in the webpage once I click the generated URL. :confused_face:

Any thoughts?

@Cr4z33
Your two values of “REDIRCT_URI” should be the same; Your spotify App setup and your spotify.config.json. Check again.

@Sean sorry where shoud I look for that? :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:

In the generated link or?

There’s more now I notice a following error message in the terminal

[SPOTIFY_AUTH] Error: null { error: 'invalid_request',
  error_description: 'code must be supplied' }

Go to https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard/applications (login)

Then select your spotify app for this module. (You might have created one if you followed instruction)

Then check your redirect_uri with your spotify.config.json.

Cr4z33

@Sean that was the solution. :D
The redirect URI for some reason was empty.

As soon as I added it manually re-running step #4 worked like a charm. :thumbs_up_medium_skin_tone:

Cr4z33

@Sean OK now a different issue.

I added the MMM-AssistantMk2 needed lines, but when I say ie. Michael Jackson on Spotify nothing happens…

Isn’t it supposed to play then straight on MagicMirror? :thinking_face:

@Cr4z33
If you didn’t make a proper command about it (with transciptionHook or gAction - I recommend gAction because spotify would be a reserved feature of real Google Assistant but not supported on this SDK level.), you can’t.

Cr4z33

@Sean well I followed your instructions so… :grimacing_face:

gAction you say?
Ouch that’s all new to me and I guess it will take a while then… OK… :confounded_face:

Cr4z33

@Sean OK maybe it is my fault, but it was my understanding that this Spotify module can be also a stand-alone player?

For some reason a second try at Michael Jackson on Spotify made start the web player I was previously running on my computer…

Does this mean that if I have Raspotify (how to set it up then?) I can actually run everything from the Pi?

A Former User

@Cr4z33
This is not a standalone player. you need “RASPOTIFY” to play songs directly on MM.
There is some API about standalone player, but unfortunately, RPI doesn’t support that feature.
Your trial was not about this module on RPI. It was an original features of Google Assistant.
