Feature request: Recents

Open itpropro opened this issue 7 months ago • 2 comments

First of all, thanks a lot for creating and maintaining this wonderful piece of software!

I am using the “Recents” functionality in the spotify app quite often and it would be great if ncspot had support for it. I am often creating radios from random songs I like and the fastest (sometimes the only way) to get back to them is via. “Recents”.

I also like to use "recently played", so it would be nice to add. I hacked together a new tab for this for myself and it seems to work with some caveats 🤔:

  • The biggest one to be aware of is that recently played tracks from ncspot won't be included in that list. I assume this is because ncspot doesn't use spotify-connect, unless I'm missing something here.
  • There's no way to add the "market" property to the API request so making sure the track is still playable feels a bit painful...

Maybe it's worth waiting to see if spotify-connect will make an appearance before adding some sort of "recently played" tab, because this may lead to confusion or bug reports about the recently played tab not refreshing.
