Cute Spotify

Note about versioning

Starting from 1.5.2-*: Release 0 is always the harbour version, Release > 0 is always non-harbour compliant version. The harbour version is a limited version with all *.harbour.patch patches applied. This is due to API limitations in harbour.

Build Requirements

Prerequisites

You need some libraries to build CuteSpotify, also you need QtCreator if you want to open the .pro file.

sudo apt-get install libpulse-dev qtcreator

Also, you might need some of the Qt development package, e.g. qt5-qtsysteminfo-devel.

libSpotify

You need to download libspotify 12 to be able to compile and create the rpm package. Get it there: https://developer.spotify.com/technologies/libspotify/ (For the device you need the version for the eabi-armv6hf architecture)

Extract the content of the tarball inside 'libspotify' at the root of the project.

The resulting hierarchy should be:

• libspotify/
  • include/
    • libspotify/
      • api.h
  • lib/
    • libspotify.so
    • libspotify.so.9

When building for the emulator, create a 'libspotify_emu' folder at the root of the project and extract the linux-libc6 x86 version of libspotify in there.

Spotify API Key

You also need your own libspotify API key to be able to compile and run the program (see https://developer.spotify.com/technologies/libspotify/keys/) Create a file spotify_key.h inside libQtSpotify and copy the provided key inside it using the following format:

#ifndef SPOTIFY_KEY_H
#define SPOTIFY_KEY_H

const uint8_t g_appkey[] = { 0x00, 0x00, ..., ... };
const size_t g_appkey_size = sizeof(g_appkey);

#endif // SPOTIFY_KEY_H

Running from the SDK

In order to run the project in the emulator you need to ensure nemo-qml-plugin-policy-qt5 is installed in the emulator.

While developing you can add '--debug' as run argument to show debug output
