shpotify

shpotify is a simple Bash/Apple script to control Spotify from the command line on a Mac.

If you find this interesting, you should follow me on Twitter to learn about the other things I do.

Installation

Download and install the Spotify desktop application if you haven’t already.

With Homebrew

The easiest way to install shpotify is by using the Homebrew package manager:

brew install shpotify

Manual installation

If you don’t use Homebrew, you can install the script manually by following a few simple steps:

  1. Fetch a copy of this repository, either with git or download the zip archive.

  2. Navigate to the folder where you fetched the repository (unzip if needed) and make sure the file called spotify is executable:

    cd shpotify
    chmod +x spotify
    
  3. Copy the file spotify to a convenient location in your PATH, or set your PATH to include the folder where the file is located.

Connecting to Spotify’s API

shpotify needs to connect to Spotify’s API in order to find music by name. It is very likely you want this feature!

To get this to work, you first need to sign up (or into) Spotify’s developer site and create an Application. Once you’ve done so, you can find its Client ID and Client Secret values and enter them into your shpotify config file at ${HOME}/.shpotify.cfg.

Be sure to quote your values and don’t add any extra spaces. When done, it should look like the following (but with your own values):

CLIENT_ID="abc01de2fghijk345lmnop"
CLIENT_SECRET="qr6stu789vwxyz"

With shpotify you can control Spotify with the following commands:
