Spotify Mini Player: Control your Spotify library at your fingertips

[MikaOpenLife]

I still can not send it from my work so I send it to you by this forum, with the download link on the bottom of the message, I hope it is good like that ?

[ EDIT ] I guess i send it 2 times by mistake ?

Yesterday, Spotify has made major changes in their API related to Spotify URIs.

The workflow was broken, and version 7.16 should fix the issues, see http://alfred-spotify-mini-player.com/blog/Version-7.16/

 

Please report any issues, see how

Thanks!!!

 

sure you can, everything is explained here 

http://alfred-spotify-mini-player.com/articles/now-playing/

I've tried this several times, but I'm afraid it keeps giving me notifications and they're really distracting me. 

When I go to my notification settings the Spotify mini player isn't displayed. Just the normal spotify. I've turned off all sorts of notifications, but it won't work. Any chance you can help me out?

Sure I will help you. You can either open a Github issue or send an email as explained here http://alfred-spotify-mini-player.com/articles/support/

I will follow up with you outside of this forum

Ehhh... silly of me to update Alfred so soon after release.

 

Anyway, this workflow doesn't work in Alfred 4, thought it was worth mentioning - the upgrade migration process hasn't migrated my client ID/API key, and the welcome screen that suggests opening "Spotify Application page" does not open it, this is the error I see in the debugger:

 

>/bin/bash: /Users/<username>/Library/Caches/com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred/Workflow Data/com.vdesabou.spotify.mini.player/action.log: No such file or directory

 

When I created that file manually, it worked.

Here is a link to an "Alfred 4 only" version: https://transfer.sh/TLlch/spotifyminiplayer-beta.alfredworkflow

Let me know if you still get issues

[vdesabou]

Version 8.0 is out and is now compatible with Alfred 3 and Alfred 4.

Hi, thanks for the updated version for Alfred 4. I've reached the point of authenticating to Spotify but only see an error, "Illegal Scope". Is there something I can do to fix this?

This is a known Spotify issue, see https://github.com/vdesabou/alfred-spotify-mini-player/issues/287

Hello,

How can I completely uninstall this workflow? It seems that the downloaded data (library, artworks, etc.) still remain after I removed the workflow on Alfred's workflow list.

(When I remove and re-install the workflow, the library remains as downloaded.)

You can remove the two following directories:

 

/Users/<YOU>/Library/Application Support/Alfred/Workflow Data/com.vdesabou.spotify.mini.player/

/Users/<YOU>/Library/Caches/com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred/Workflow Data/com.vdesabou.spotify.mini.player/

Thanks so much for your quick reply!

Thanks for such a huge and useful workflow! 

 

When I add the current song to a playlist, it doesn't add it where one would expect; it gets added to the top of the playlist. When adding songs using the desktop GUI they end up at the bottom. Would it be possible to mimic this behavior instead? Or supply an option to choose either.

 

Cheers, M

you probably have the notification style as Alert, in OS X notifications preferences for Spotify Mini Player app, see Link

Thank you, that did the trick, my notifications were set to "Alerts", I've never on that settings screen, so some OS upgrade or something changed the default.

Hello.

Fresh Alfred user here and trying this great workflow out.

I'm still in the process of downloading artwork but I got a question/issue with the Notification window. From the guide the notifications that popus up have the Spotify Mini Player name with the beautiful green icons but for me instead of that I have a terminal-notifier as the application with the terminal icon.

Is there a way to fix this?

I'm running Catalina 10.15.4 and Alfred 4.0.9.

Works like a charm. Thank you!

When first installing the workflow it worked very nicely, but it started to open the spotify desktop app, not really being able to run anything using Alfred anymore. I've tried removing and adding the workflow (including related folders) and reinstalling Alfred. Any suggestions?

Can you follow those steps http://alfred-spotify-mini-player.com/articles/support/ to send me a debug zip file, I'll have a look. Please detail in the email what you are observing (screenshots and/or video might help) because it is not clear why you would not be able to use Alfred because of my workflow

Oh, sorry! I was being unclear. I meant to say that I'm not being able to run anything in Spotify mini anymore. Alfred is running just fine. Whenever I try to play a song from Spotify mini it just launches the Spotify desktop app and nothing happens. After the Spotify desktop app has started and I'm trying to play songs using Spotify mini it doesn't do anything either. I am connected to my account and I can browse around in Spotify mini, but it doesn't want to play anything.
