librespot-golang

Introduction

librespot-golang is an opensource Golang library based on the librespot project, allowing you to control Spotify Connect devices, get metadata, and play music. It has itself been based on SpotControl, and its main goal is to provide a suitable replacement wfor the defunct libspotify.

This is still highly experimental and in development. Do not use it in production projects yet, as the API is incomplete and subject to heavy changes.

This fork contains changes that are more compatible with go.mod, while removing the Rust-esque package layout. It has not been tested thoroughly, though things do compile. Please open an issue if anything is broken.

Installation

This package can be installed using:

go get github.com/librespot-org/librespot-golang/librespot

Usage

To use the package look at the example micro-controller (for Spotify Connect). For the CLI, install the main package:

go get -u github.com/librespot-org/librespot-golang

Building for mobile

The package librespotmobile contains bindings suitable for use with Gomobile, which lets you use a subset of the librespot library on Android and iOS.

To get started, install gomobile, and simply run (for Android):

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/librespot-org/librespot-golang
gomobile init -ndk /path/to/android-ndk
gomobile bind librespotmobile

This will build you a file called librespotmobile.aar which you can include in your Android Studio project.

Compiling on nix:

nix-shell -p gcc pkgconfig libvorbis libogg portaudio

To-Do's

  • Handling disconnections, timeouts, etc (overall failure tolerance)
  • Playlist management
  • Spotify Radio support
