$ ln -s libspotify.dylib libspotify

• Run ./sconsify

There are 2 modes:

• Console user interface mode: it presents a text user interface with playlists and tracks.

• No user interface mode: it doesn't present user interface and just suffle tracks.

• -username="": Spotify username. If not present username will be asked.

• Password will be asked. To not be asked you can set an environment variable with your password export SCONSIFY_PASSWORD=password. Be aware your password will be exposed as plain text.

• -ui=true/false: Run Sconsify with Console User Interface. If false then no User Interface will be presented and it'll only shuffle tracks.

• -playlists="": Select just some playlists to play. Comma separated list.

• -noui-repeat-on=true/false: Play your playlist and repeat it after the last track.

• -noui-silent=true/false: Silent mode when no UI is used.

• -noui-shuffle=true/false: Shuffle tracks or follow playlist order.

• ← ↓ ↑ → for navigation.

• space or enter: play selected track.

• >: play next track.

• p: pause.

• /: open a search field.

• s: shuffle tracks from current playlist. Press again to go back to normal mode.

• S: shuffle tracks from all playlists. Press again to go back to normal mode.

• u: queue selected track to play next.

• d: delete selected track from the queue or delete selected search.

• D: delete all tracks from the queue if the focus is on the queue.

• PageUp PageDown Home End.

• Control C or q: exit.

Vi navigation style:

• h j k l for navigation.

• Nj and Nk where N is a number: repeat the command N times.

• gg: go to first element.

• G: go to last element.

• Ngg and NG where N is a number: go to element at position N.

• >: play next track.

• Control C: exit.

Similar to .ackrc you can define default parameters in ~/.sconsify/sconsifyrc:

-username=your-username
-noui-silent=true 
-noui-repeat-on=false

Get a Spotify application key and copy as a byte array to /sconsify/spotify/spotify_key_array.key.

var key = []byte{
    0x02, 0xA2, ...
    ...
    0xA1}

• make run

When building for OSX you may face an issue where it doesn't get you application key. Just retry the build that eventually it will get the key.
