Mopidy extension for playing music from Spotify
QuickLyric is an android app that instantly fetches your lyrics for you. Its main perks is that it's very fast, features Material Design as well as a search engine, a Karaoke mode, the downloading of all your lyrics on your device & some handy settings. Want to see what your friends or coworkers are listening to? Check out the Friend Activity panel in Spotify on your Mac or PC desktop. Turn on the right sidebar under the View menu.) Of course, this goes both ways — your friends can see what you’re listening to, as well.
Project description
Mopidy extension for playing music fromSpotify.
Status
Mopidy-Spotify is dependent on pyspotify, a wrapper for Spotify’slibspotify C library. libspotify was deprecated in 2015 with no replacement. Itis unmaintained, functionally limited, and also now unavailable from theSpotify developer site. Wherepossible we are moving to use Spotify’s Web API instead. However, nativeplayback is still only possible using libspotify and there is no officialway for us to provide some Spotify features.
Limitations and/or bugs in libspotify currently result in missing/brokenMopidy-Spotify support for the following:
- Saving items to My Music (#108) -possible via web API
- Podcasts (#201) -unavailable
- Radio (#9) - unavailable
- Spotify Connect (#14) -unavailable
Working support for the following features is currently available:
- Playback
- Search
- Playlists (read-only)
- Top lists and Your Music (read-only)
- Lookup by URI
Dependencies
- A Spotify Premium subscription. Mopidy-Spotify will not work with SpotifyFree, just Spotify Premium.
- A non-Facebook Spotify username and password. If you created your accountthrough Facebook you’ll need to create a “device password” to be able to useMopidy-Spotify. Go to http://www.spotify.com/account/set-device-password/,login with your Facebook account, and follow the instructions. However,sometimes that process can fail for users with Facebook logins, in which caseyou can create an app-specific password on Facebook by going to facebook.com >Settings > Security > App passwords > Generate app passwords, and generate oneto use with Mopidy-Spotify.
- libspotify >= 12, < 13. The official C library from our Unofficiallibspotify archive.The package is available as libspotify12 fromapt.mopidy.com.
- pyspotify >= 2.0.5. The libspotify Python wrapper. The package isavailable as python-spotify from apt.mopidy.com or pyspotify on PyPI.See https://pyspotify.mopidy.com/en/latest/installation/ for how to installit and its dependencies on most platforms.
- Mopidy >= 3.0. The music server that Mopidy-Spotify extends.
If you install Mopidy-Spotify from apt.mopidy.com, AUR, or Homebrew, thesedependencies are installed automatically.

My friend (and 9 Clouds’ resident tech wizard), Allen Day, has taught me a lot about getting the most out of the Internet.
Recently, I asked him about some lesser-known Spotify features. Here are some things Allen said you should definitely be aware of while you listen.
My Top 8 Spotify Hacks (by Allen Day)
1. Collaborative Playlists
I started using Spotify for shared playlists while getting to know my now-wife. We later used one for our wedding.
Collaborative playlists are a great way to mark an occasion. At 9 Clouds, when Catherine was concerned she listened to too much Maroon 5, the team rallied together and built her a playlist.
How to Do It
Want to collaborate on a playlist?
Just right-click on the playlist, and choose Collaborative Playlist. Then, share it with your future collaborators.
Check out the playlist we made for this blog post »2. Organizing Your Playlists with Folders
If you’ve been using Spotify for a while, you’ve probably accumulated quite a few playlists.
Did you know you can organize them into folders?
I didn’t, either . . . until I grabbed my wife’s phone to change up the music on a road trip and saw how organized her lists were compared to my mess.
Mind. Blown.
You can make as many folders as you want to organize your playlists so they make sense for you. Break them down by theme or genre — make a collection of playlists for the gym, driving, you name it.
How to Do It
Just right-click on a playlist, and select Create Folder. Once you’ve created your folders, you can drag playlists into them.
Note: You cannot create or organize folders on your phone; you’ll have to use the desktop app. Once they’re set up, though, you can still see and use them on your phone.
3. Customizing Playlists with Your Own Album Art
You’ve put a lot of listening time into your favorite playlists.
Whether you want to keep them private or share them with the world, those playlists deserve to look great and stand out in your Spotify app.
The ability to update cover art and playlist descriptions used to be limited to featured partners, but now it’s available for all playlists — public or private.
How to Do It
Open your playlist in the desktop app. Click on the cover art to upload your own photo, or click on the description to write a new one.
Check out 9 Clouds’ car song playlist »4. “Daily Mix” Playlists
Not sure what to listen to? Check out your “Daily Mix” playlists.
Spotify Api Github
“Daily Mix” is a series of playlists with nearly endless playback that combines your favorite tracks with new songs Spotify thinks you’ll love — minus the effort that goes into creating the perfect listening session.
Spotify creates up to six playlists for you based on your own listening history. Each playlist is differentiated by a unique color and generally spans a single genre or theme.
When you’re playing one of your daily mixes, a couple new icons will appear in your player. You can ❤️ your favorite songs to add them to your Liked Songs.
5. Yearly Reflection: “Your 2019 Wrapped”
Each year, Spotify marks the holidays with a recap of what you listened to that year. For 2019, Spotify has released “Your 2019 Wrapped.”
Sign in to see your most-listened-to songs, albums, and artists in 2019.
Here at 9 Clouds, we love to compare stories and screenshots of our own “Years Wrapped.” Here’s mine from way back in 2017 (I listened to a lot of Alphaville — but in my defense, they released a new album for the first time in years, and I got to see them in concert after a 20-year wait):
6. Podcasts
The podcast industry has never been bigger. Podcasts have gone mainstream . . . which means Spotify is not just a music player anymore.
For years, I’ve tried recommending podcasts to friends and acquaintances. Too often, the response is that the podcast sounds interesting, but they don’t know how to use podcasts.
Now, I can just point people to Spotify. Powerpc mac download. While it’s not my podcast app of choice, I am extremely excited to see Spotify offering them as a gateway to podcasts.
Don’t miss any new stuff — subscribe for updates! »7. “Discover Weekly” and “Release Radar”
Spotify has a couple of weekly playlists custom-tailored just for you.
Every Monday, the first thing I listen to is my “Discover Weekly” playlist. This playlist is a mix of familiar tunes from your own playlists, plus new music Spotify thinks you’ll like. “Discover Weekly” tends to be pretty hit-or-miss, but it hits enough that I keep coming back.
The other weekly playlist I look forward to is the “Release Radar.” Similar to “Discover Weekly,” this playlist is based on your listening history. It features the newest releases by artists you listen to or follow.
If you haven’t already, search Spotify for “Release Radar” and “Discover Weekly.” Once you find yours, click the Follow button to add them to your playlists for easy access. They update every Monday and Friday, respectively.
8. Creeping on Your Friends
Want to see what your friends or coworkers are listening to?
Check out the Friend Activity panel in Spotify on your Mac or PC desktop. (Don’t see it? Turn on the right sidebar under the View menu.)
Of course, this goes both ways — your friends can see what you’re listening to, as well.
If you don’t like the idea of broadcasting your listening preferences to your friends, you can disable it in the Spotify settings. Toggle on Private Session to temporarily hide what you’re listening to, or disable Share my listening activity on Spotify to turn off your public activity for good.
Bonus: What Does Spotify Suck At?
Sure, we’re biased — we know a thing or two about superb targeting online.
Spotify++ Ipa Github
Still, despite its awesome data, Spotify’s ad targeting could use a lot of work.
Only Spotify would advertise Chick-fil-A to me in a town hundreds of miles from the nearest restaurant — and always while I’m running. It should totally know I’m running because of data . . . and my playlist with the word Running in the title. C’mon, guys.

Thanks, Allen!
Before we put this post together, I didn’t know a thing about the “Release Radar,” and there are a few more features in here I definitely have to check out.
