Mopidy-Spotify

Latest PyPI version CI build status Test coverage

Mopidy extension for playing music from Spotify.

Status ⚠️

Spotify have recently disabled username and password login for playback (#394) and we now utilise access-token login. You no longer need to provide your Spotify account username or password.

Mopidy-Spotify currently has no support for the following:

  • Seeking
  • Gapless playback
  • Volume normalization
  • Saving items to My Music (#108) - possible via web API
  • Podcasts (#201) - now possible
  • Radio (#9) - unavailable?
  • Spotify Connect (#14)

Working support for the following features is currently available:

  • Playback
  • Search
  • Playlists (read-only)
  • Top lists and Your Music (read-only)
  • Lookup by URI

Dependencies

  • A Spotify Premium subscription. Mopidy-Spotify will not work with Spotify Free, just Spotify Premium.

  • Mopidy >= 3.4. The music server that Mopidy-Spotify extends.

  • gst-plugins-spotify, the GStreamer Rust Plugin for Spotify playback, based on librespot. This plugin is not yet available from apt.mopidy.com. It must be either built from source or Debian packages are available for some platforms.

    We currently require a forked version of this plugin which supports token-based login. This can be found here.

Verify the GStreamer spotify plugin is correctly installed:

gst-inspect-1.0 spotify

sudo python3 -m pip install --break-system-packages Mopidy-Spotify==5.0.0a2
