This crate is heavily inspired by spotipy- A spotify api wrapper implemented in Python
Rspotify is a lightweight wrapper for the Spotify Web API It includes helper functions for all Spotify's endpoints, such as fetching metadata (search and look-up of albums, artists, tracks, playlists, new releases) and user's information (follow users, artists and playlists, and saved tracks management).
rspotify supports all of the features of the Spotify Web API including access to all end points, and support for user authorization, notes that before accessing to any end points, you need to be authorized. For details on the capabilities you are encouraged to review the Spotify Web Endpoint Reference documentation
Since this crate isn't pushed to crates.io, but it is close to finish. Just be patient. Or if you can't wait to try rspotify, you could get it from source
Since all methods require user authorization now, you will need to generate an authorization token that indicates that the user has granted permission for your application to perform the given task. You will need to register your app to get the credentials necessary to make authorized calls.
Even if your script does not have an accessible URL you need to specify one when
registering your application where the spotify authentication API will redirect
to after successful login. The URL doesn't need to work or be accessible, you
can specify "http://localhost/", after successful login you just need to copy
the "http://localhost/?code=..." URL from your browser and paste it to the
console where your application is running. For example:
If you have a use case you are intertested in, you could check the examples, which has all kinds of detailed examples. For example, If you want to get recently played history, you could check currentuserrecently_played. This is the example code: ``` rust extern crate rspotify;
use rspotify::spotify::client::Spotify; use rspotify::spotify::util::get_token; use rspotify::spotify::oauth2::{SpotifyClientCredentials, SpotifyOAuth};
fn main() { // Set clientid and clientsecret in .env file or // export CLIENTID="your clientid" // export CLIENTSECRET="secret" // export REDIRECTURI=your-direct-uri
// Or set client_id, client_secret,redirect_uri explictly
// let oauth = SpotifyOAuth::default()
// .client_id("this-is-my-client-id")
// .client_secret("this-is-my-client-secret")
// .redirect_uri("http://localhost:8888/callback")
// .build();
let mut oauth = SpotifyOAuth::default()
.scope("user-read-recently-played")
.build();
match get_token(&mut oauth) {
Some(token_info) => {
let client_credential = SpotifyClientCredentials::default()
.token_info(token_info)
.build();
// Or set client_id and client_secret explictly
// let client_credential = SpotifyClientCredentials::default()
// .client_id("this-is-my-client-id")
// .client_secret("this-is-my-client-secret")
// .build();
let spotify = Spotify::default()
.client_credentials_manager(client_credential)
.build();
let history = spotify.current_user_recently_played(10);
println!("{:?}", history);
}
None => println!("auth failed"),
};
}
```
