### 🎼 Music plugin The *music* plugin lets you display :
🎼 Favorite tracks version
Recently listened version
It can work in the following modes: ### Playlist mode Select randomly a few tracks from a given playlist to share your favorites tracks with your visitors. Select a music provider below for instructions.
Apple Music Extract the *embed* URL of the playlist you want to share. To do so, connect to [music.apple.com](https://music.apple.com/) and select the playlist you want to share. From `...` menu, select `Share` and `Copy embed code`. ![Copy embed code of playlist](/.github/readme/imgs/plugin_music_playlist_apple.png) Extract the source link from the code pasted in your clipboard: ```html ``` And use this value in `plugin_music_playlist` option.
Spotify Extract the *embed* URL of the playlist you want to share. To do so, Open Spotify and select the playlist you want to share. From `...` menu, select `Share` and `Copy embed code`. ![Copy embed code of playlist](/.github/readme/imgs/plugin_music_playlist_spotify.png) Extract the source link from the code pasted in your clipboard: ```html ``` And use this value in `plugin_music_playlist` option.
Last.fm This mode is not supported for now.

Apple Music This mode is not supported for now. I tried to find a way with *smart playlists*, *shortcuts* and other stuff but could not figure a workaround to do it without paying the $99 fee for the developer program. So unfortunately this isn't available for now.
Spotify Spotify does not have *personal tokens*, so it makes the process a bit longer because you're required to follow the [authorization workflow](https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/general/guides/authorization-guide/)... Follow the instructions below for a *TL;DR* to obtain a `refresh_token`. Sign in to the [developer dashboard](https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard/) and create a new app. Keep your `client_id` and `client_secret` and let this tab open for now. ![Add a redirect url](/.github/readme/imgs/plugin_music_recent_spotify_token_0.png) Open the settings and add a new *Redirect url*. Normally it is used to setup callbacks for apps, but just put `https://localhost` instead (it is mandatory as per the [authorization guide](https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/general/guides/authorization-guide/), even if not used). Forge the authorization url with your `client_id` and the encoded `redirect_uri` you whitelisted, and access it from your browser: ``` https://accounts.spotify.com/authorize?client_id=********&response_type=code&scope=user-read-recently-played&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Flocalhost ``` When prompted, authorize your application. ![Authorize application](/.github/readme/imgs/plugin_music_recent_spotify_token_1.png) Once redirected to `redirect_uri`, extract the generated authorization `code` from your url bar. ![Extract authorization code from url](/.github/readme/imgs/plugin_music_recent_spotify_token_2.png) Go back to your developer dashboard tab, and open the web console of your browser to paste the following JavaScript code, with your own `client_id`, `client_secret`, authorization `code` and `redirect_uri`. ```js (async () => { console.log(await (await fetch("https://accounts.spotify.com/api/token", { method:"POST", headers:{"Content-Type":"application/x-www-form-urlencoded"}, body:new URLSearchParams({ grant_type:"authorization_code", redirect_uri:"https://localhost", client_id:"********", client_secret:"********", code:"********", }) })).json()) })() ``` It should return a JSON response with the following content: ```json { "access_token":"********", "expires_in": 3600, "scope":"user-read-recently-played", "token_type":"Bearer", "refresh_token":"********" } ``` Register your `client_id`, `client_secret` and `refresh_token` in secrets to finish setup.
Last.fm Obtain a Last.fm API key. To do so, you can simply [create an API account](https://www.last.fm/api/account/create) or [use an existing one](https://www.last.fm/api/accounts). Register your API key to finish setup.
