[feature request]Support for Linux (Ubuntu) #363

Hello, Would it be possible to have it on Ubuntu?

Thanks

Nerixyz commented 1 year ago

From briefly looking at Spotify's dbus interface, this seems to be possible. I'll add a CI job that builds on Ubuntu and later (hopefully) a Spotify integration. There are some other things to do as well.

TODO

[x] Add Ubuntu CI
[ ] Add .deb artifact
[ ] Figure out a good way of running in the background (probably through a systemd service)
[x] Add additional config locations
[x] Add ~~Spotify~~ MPRIS D-Bus interface

If you have an executable (or through cargo), you can run the app and it should anything you're playing (docs). I've tested it with Spotify on WSL. However, I don't know to deploy/package the app well and which "standards" I should adhere to. The config itself should be correctly stored (docs).
