release notes
After nearly 2 years of waiting, there is finally a new release available! :partying_face:

Due to the long time without releases, there have been quite some changes. For details, have a look at the changelog. Here, however, is a list of the most important changes and things you should know:

Highlights

  • OAuth: Manual authentication is working again after it had been broken by changes on Spotify servers.
    However, instead of providing username and password to spotifyd, you authenticate once using a web-based flow. This can be initiated with spotifyd auth. For details, have a look at our docs.
  • MPRIS: The MPRIS interface now interacts with the player locally instead of calling the web API.
    As such, calls to the interface should be much faster than before. Also, calling simple getter methods too frequently no longer leads to rate limiting.
  • Platform Support: spotifyd has gained (experimental) support for Windows and Android. While there are no pre-built binaries available (yet), building and running should be possible. There have been several improvements to BSD support, and we now have binaries for aarch64 on macOS as well as on Linux.
    Unfortunately, we do not provide a binary for armv6 any more, since that has become increasingly difficult to maintain. If you desperately need such a binary, feel free to join our community matrix server, and we'll try to find a solution.
  • Robustness: spotifyd has become more robust in many ways. Most of that comes from improvements to the amazing librespot project that we heavily rely on. But spotifyd has also become more resilient to temporary failures due to network not being available and retries several times before exiting.

Migration

Migrating from v0.3.5 to v0.4.0 should be pretty seamless, apart from the one-time setup required if you want to continue using manual authentication. See above for details.

Contributors

This release couldn't have happened without the help of many incredible people. We have several new contributors:
