MMM-SpotifyControl . Control your Spotify music player using Mk2 assistant.

It says something like ‘I am sorry I don’t know how to help you, but I am learning new things day by day’.

I am 100% sure that all the API/token details are correct and still valid (if I run MMM-NowPlayingOnSpotify it works flawlessly).

ejay-ibm

@Cr4z33
What Are you saying exactly ?
What is the result of this if you try to type in in your google search bar ?
did you simply try : “bob marley spotify” ?
what is your search result ? in google ?

Cr4z33

@ejay-ibm
I am saying that:

If I say in Italian to MMM-AssistantMk2 play Bob Marley on Spotify then Google Assistant replies (by voice) that he doesn’t know how to help me
If I search for bob marley spotify on Google then the first result I get is this link

ejay-ibm

@Cr4z33 try to just say “Bob Marley Spotify” so there’s no language interaction.

Cr4z33

@ejay-ibm just tried and again GA says he apologizes, but he doesn’t know right now how to help me.

Cr4z33

@ejay-ibm perhaps it doesn’t work (yet) when using GA in another language than English?

ejay-ibm

@Cr4z33 Well i’m using it in french … so I don’t think so .
I need to think a bit why your payload is incorrect.

Cr4z33

@ejay-ibm sure take your time mate as I might probably not resume testing before tomorrow afternoon. ;)

F17MC

@ejay-ibm I thought your module only works to play/stop/next/previous. I have tried run “Bob Marley Spotify” and nothing happens. With other artist the same.
If I can test something…
Pd: Spanish + Spotify premium

ejay-ibm

@F17MC @Cr4z33
I don’t think the issue is with the module but with what the assistant return to the module .

the module is expecting something like “”(open.spotify.com - https://open.spotify.com/artist/2Gkz5N7rWiCE3jlCgsw1yp""

So i’m not getting why your assistant doesn’t understand what to search for.

I’ll continue digging

Ejay

Cr4z33

@ejay-ibm OK thanks I might ask also @Sean tomorrow to see if he knows anything we don’t. :D

ejay-ibm

@Cr4z33 I’m already working on it with @Sean ;)

quick question : if you just say “micheal jackson smooth criminal”
does it start playing youtube ?
if yes then just try “micheal jackson smooth criminal spotify”
and let me know

If that doesn’t work I’ll ask you some patience so I can implement the spotify search function directly in my module and not from the assistant. We will just use a hook in the assisant .

Ejay

F17MC

@ejay-ibm yes, with YouTube it works. But with Spotify no. I try with “artist + song Spotify”, “artist + song on Spotify” etc. Always run the video in YouTube.

ejay-ibm

@F17MC That is interesting … that mean the result of the assistant research never bring a spotify url but a youtube one . a openspotify url is what the module expect to work .

So we know now that under some circumpstance the module doesn’t get the right payload from assistant to work.
Thanks for testing and reporting this guys .

I’ll work with sean to implement a search function directly with the spotify APIs call . With that we will make the search directly on spotify ( and not on google ) so we will bypass this issue .

I’m wondering where the difference is between you and I, because it work fine here and as well another German guy Mantha who is the original code creator .

Anyway, there’s no problem … only solution .

I’ll keep you informed once the module is updated .

Ejay .

But I get error 404, Device not found. I try while I listen to music on my laptop and my magic mirror with raspotify, and I get the same error.
I have edit my deviceID and my Authorization in the code for privacy.

EDIT:

I think I know what is the problem.
I have tried with two devices, and it don’t work. But when I try it with the device which is the deviceID that I wrote in the module code, it works.

If I don’t say a command before, I get error 404.

@F17MC
So in your config.js you have set your device id to ; a8caee9b12196a964f5a9b0fafaf7ef1

at this step
Error while refreshing:
{ StatusCodeError: 404 - {“error”:{“status”:404,“message”:“Device not found”}}

currentDeviceID variable is passed by case ‘PLAY_SPOTIFY’:
payload[“deviceId”] = this.config.deviceId;

"If I don’t say a command before, I get error 404. " what do you mean ? could you clarify ?

“But when I try it with the device which is the deviceID that I wrote in the module code, it works.”
Yes that is expected .

For now you can only start playing on the device ID given in the config file as mentioned in the readme :

This Module allow to control Spotify player on your Mirror . For now you can only control a single device. It could be your mirror if you are running Raspotify on it. Request to play a song it will be played on your select device in the config.js file. other command doesn’t need a device to be set. So if you are already playing a song on another device, the modules allow you to control this device from your module. But if you request a new song or playlist the set device in config file will play it on it you can not start a new song on a different device from now .

Does that clarify the point ?

Yes that is expected .

For now you can only start playing on the device ID given in the config file as mentioned in the readme :

This Module allow to control Spotify player on your Mirror . For now you can only control a single device. It could be your mirror if you are running Raspotify on it. Request to play a song it will be played on your select device in the config.js file. other command doesn’t need a device to be set. So if you are already playing a song on another device, the modules allow you to control this device from your module. But if you request a new song or playlist the set device in config file will play it on it you can not start a new song on a different device from now .

Does that clarify the point ?

If I don’t say a command before, I get error 404. " what do you mean ? could you clarify ?
I wanted to erase this sentence but I could not edit my post. It should not be there.

Yes, the module is working perfect now!
Thanks.

Fantastic news !
So just for other user.
Could you clarify what you did wrong earlier ? and what you changed to make it work ?
Any special sentence to call the module ? any change in config file ?

thank you

@ejay-ibm
I really want the module to control only one device. I configured that device in the configuration file, but then used the magicmirror as an output device. Then that was the error.
I started disabling youtube and its automatic playback of mmm-assistantmk2, but then I turned it back on.

A doubt. As I really only want to control a device with your module, I could do that if, for example, I’m listening to spotify on my computer, but I say to magicmirror: “start music on spotify” make the change directly to the deviceID that I have in the config file and start the music?

@F17MC said in MMM-SpotifyControl . Control your Spotify music player using Mk2 assistant.:

I say to magicmirror: “start music on spotify” make the change directly to the deviceID that I have in the config file and start the music?

Yes That is correct .
BUT
in all the API call i’m using the device is optional .

If you want to control only one device that is the current playing device you can comment line 216 of /core/SpotifyConnector.js

That way you don’t pass the device ID to the api.
that should work

The only condition for this to work is you must have an active device.
The constraint is that if you want to play a song on your mirror, then you have to select it manually as a device from the spotify app.

hope this helps.
