[MMM-NowPlayingOnSpotify] – Display the currently on Spotify playing song

Hi, would love to try this module but I keep failing installing it.
First of all I have quite many messages after npm install. Newbie as I am I tried npm audit fix to fix vulnerabilities. Still had a few (not high) vulnerabilities.

What happens is the nothing of this module comes up.

Tried again by deleting the module folder and installing again.

Druing npm install:
npm notice created a lockfile as package-lock.json. You should commit this file.
added 664 packages from 770 contributors and audited 4892 packages in 233.343s
found 16 vulnerabilities (2 low, 7 moderate, 7 high)
run npm audit fix to fix them, or npm audit for details
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-NowPlayingOnSpotify $ npm WARN deprecat ed socks@1.1.10: If using 2.x branch, please upgrade to at least 2.1.6 to avoid a serious bug with socket data flow and an import issue introduced in 2.1.0

I was playing with another module MMM-RTSPStream and I had to switch to wip develop branch. Is this my problem now?

I made it work.

I tried again and did a npm audit fix --force this time (without knowing what I actually do).
I may have pressed ctrl + z first time, this time i pressed crtl + c (which means I didnt stop service. I think?).
Now it’s working as it should.

I just upgraded Spotify to a family account, how can I make it only recognize my music. We each have a unique log in but the module is based on account number. Is there a way to specify which log in?

Indeed - having the same issue.
i connected my spotify account to google home. And when you ask google home to play some music. it’s considered like an another account.

@raywo Hi. When I call localhost: 888 I get an error

Hi @raywo , thanks for your Module.
Can you give me any help.
I installed the Module successful, my MM display the status of the song playing on my phone, but i can’t hear the sound from 3.5mm jack or from HDMI of the pi.
I found that Spotify only allow 1 device play at the same time.
Whether i need to upgrade to Premium account?
Thank you.

@Module-Developers is there an module that can show me whats playing on all my google home mini devices from all music carriers not just spotify.

Anyway to get 2 accounts running on it? The Callback URL is the same so that might be what’s stopping it working I’d say - but anyone get around it.
