Spotify Package

[Zeikko]

Feature Use Case

• Play a song
• Play an album
• Play songs of an artist
• Stop music
• Resume music
• Set volume
• Tell what are we listening to

# Example
--> Leon, play The Fat Rat
<-- Ok, playing the calling by TheFatRat

Feature Proposal

Implement a feature to use the Spotify web API to find the music that the use is looking for and play with a device that is available through the API.

Hi @Zeikko , I have some worked on this package https://github.com/jtorresdev/leonify

[Zeikko]

Cool! Great work @jtorresdev ! I just tried it out and got this error: ✖ The "Leonify" package configuration file does not exist. Try to pull the project (git pull) when running npm install in leon root. Also the dependencies of leonify are missing so I get this when trying to play a song:

✨ Music Package

[louistiti]

Hello @Zeikko,

Thanks for suggesting! A while ago I planned to create a Music package containing a Spotify module as you can see on the roadmap. But depending how Leon will evolve until there, maybe a Spotify package will be more appropriate, let's see.

@jtorresdev it looks awesome! 👏

Why not an mpd client on Leon and users can configure their own sources from there as well?

[louistiti]

Hello @nrj5k,

It is an interesting idea. But for now I prefer to minimize the type of clients. However, that's something we could implement directly on the top of the existing client.

[nrj5k]

I like the sound of that.

[louistiti]

Today the web app client is a simple messaging interface, but later we could imagine that will be a bit more complex than that with cool features 😃

Could I contribute to this issue?

[louistiti]

Could I contribute to this issue?

Sure! But I suggest to wait a bit until the official release as the whole core of Leon is being rewritten and several breaking changes will take place. In the meantime, you can join us on Discord. Once the stable version shipped, we'll all be working together on creating new skills for Leon.
