Hi all! i ve set a config as
SPOTIFY_MA_PLAYLIST: { notificationExec: { notification: "SPOTIFY_PLAY", payload: (params) => { console.log("SPOTIFY_MA_PLAYLIST") return { context_uri: "spotify:playlist:1EaTnmluBfauzzcOdjebNG", // Uri of a personnal playlist or album } }, notification: "SPOTIFY_SHUFFLE", // added this to toogle shuffle notification: "SPOTIFY_NEXT" // added this to not always have the same song starting first } },
and activate it with
SPOTIFY_MA_PLAYLIST: { pattern: "play my playlist on spotify", // (.*) is an action eg: play my playlist / run my playlist etc... command: "SPOTIFY_MA_PLAYLIST" },
but every time i get this result which is very weird
weird responseany ideas plz?

It seems MMM-AssistantMk2’s commands.
You made some mistakes.This is somewhat similar what you want.
"SPOTIFY_MA_PLAYLIST": { notificationExec: { notification: "SPOTIFY_PLAY", payload: "spotify:playlist:1EaTnmluBfauzzcOdjebNG" } }
notificationExec
cannot emit multiple notifications. It will emit just one - In your case, the last “SPOTIFY_NEXT” would be emitted. that’s why your issue happened.If you want to emit several notifications, use
MMM-NotificationTrigger
to relay and chain notifications. Or you can usemoduleExec
to make some logics. (Anyway that is not the point).And
SPOTIFY_SHUFFLE
is just toggle flag for current status, so it will not guarantee to be a shuffle mode. -

Also another problem that i have is that if spotify is not already playing in the background i am not able to play anything. whatever command i give. and the frontend does not even show the spotify logo. it just disappears on after one sec on start.

In that case, maybe, the module cannot find available active devices. It doesn’t mean you have no device. But by default, Spotify doesn’t know which device is yours unless it is powered and logged as your account.
So at least one of your devices need to be activated when this SDK is used. I recommend to install Raspotify, that could makes your spotify always on. -

First of all thanks for the module and the effort you put in it.

updated
1.1.0 (2019-03-25)
- Device Limitation : Now you can allow or limit devices to display its playing on MM.
One question regarding the device limitation: if I leave it empty, the module shows the cover etc. as it should. If I try to limit it to my echo dot with
allowDevices: ["myechodot"],
the spotify logo appears if I start playback on the echo dot, but no cover etc. is shown. Any hints?

@rabbit83ka
When you play something on your echodot, nothing been displayed? -
@Sean
If I comment out//allwoeDevices: ["myechodot" ]
it shows the album cover/etx/progress etc. when I play something on my echo dot. With
allowDevices: ["myechodot"],
the spotify logo appears when something is played on the echodot, but no cover/text/progress etc. is shown.
