angular-spotify
angular service to connect to the Spotify Web API
angular-spotify makes heavy use of promises throughout the service
Usage
Install angular-spotify via bower. Use the --save property to save into your bower.json file.
bower install angular-spotify --save
Also available on npm
npm install angular-spotify --save
Include spotify into your angular module
var app = angular.module('example', ['spotify']);
Most of the functions in Spotify do not require you to authenticate your application. However if you do need to gain access to playlists or a user's data then configure it like this:
app.config(function (SpotifyProvider) {
SpotifyProvider.setClientId('<CLIENT_ID>');
SpotifyProvider.setRedirectUri('<CALLBACK_URI>');
SpotifyProvider.setScope('<SCOPE>');
SpotifyProvider.setAuthToken('<AUTH_TOKEN>');
});
For example:
app.config(function (SpotifyProvider) {
SpotifyProvider.setClientId('ABC123DEF456GHI789JKL');
SpotifyProvider.setRedirectUri('http://www.example.com/callback.html');
SpotifyProvider.setScope('user-read-private playlist-read-private playlist-modify-private playlist-modify-public');
SpotifyProvider.setAuthToken('zoasliu1248sdfuiknuha7882iu4rnuwehifskmkiuwhjg23');
});
Inject Spotify into a controller to gain access to all the functions available
app.controller('MainCtrl', function (Spotify) {
});
