# spotify-qt | ||
A Spotify client using Qt as a simpler, lighter alternative to the official client. Inspired by [spotify-tui](https://github.com/Rigellute/spotify-tui). | ||
Much like spotify-tui, you need an actual Spotify client running, for example [spotifyd](https://github.com/Spotifyd/spotifyd). | ||
|
||
Currently in beta. Most things should work, but don't be surprised when unexpected things happen. | ||
I's also not currently available in any package manager on Linux, though, when it's a bit more stable, it will be available through AUR. | ||
|
||
## Installing/building: | ||
``` | ||
git clone https://github.com/kraxarn/spotify-qt.git | ||
cd spotify-qt | ||
mkdir build | ||
cd build | ||
cmake .. | ||
make | ||
./spotify-qt | ||
``` | ||
|
||
## Known issues: | ||
* Nothing is cached, so album art, playlists, etc. is fetched every time. | ||
* Spotify API is pinged every second for updates. | ||
* Probably very unstable. | ||
* `SPOTIFY_QT_ID` and `SPOTIFY_QT_SECRET` needs to be set before using the app. | ||
* First sign in isn't very good. | ||
|
||
## Not implemented yet: | ||
* Library. | ||
* Media controls (d-bus). | ||
* Settings and log out. | ||
* Settings (for spotifyd etc.) and log out. |
