This is the example config provided by the cava developer
Well, the thing is even after uncommenting the gradient lines nothing is displayed. I believe to have everything correctly setup as to what regards the Spotify API.
What do you mean when you say nothing is displayed? The terminal running cava is completely empty?
I suppose that I only have to run spotify_cava_colors, I run it, it seems that it is indeed running the script, however, nothing is happening besides the terminal being occupied
Try running it with the -d
flag, that should print some debug output
It is trying to make requests with the server, maybe it isn't getting the Spotify API right?

Are you sure the access token credentials you filled in have the correct scope to be able to access your currently playing songs?
I copied the OAuth stuff from the example app.js they provide I copy pasted that into the files you have in your auth folder + added the client id and secret. Do I need something else?
No that should be enough, I'd delete that image though as this is a public forum and someone could steal the credentials. Just to be safe I'd regenerate them too :P
I've updated the script to log the response from the server, try git pulling and running it again with -d
Ok, the credentials are cropped, the "..." indicate that. They're like 3 times as long.
I've made sure to change the credentials in the snippet.

Looks like you're missing the required scope(s) https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46348505/spotify-web-api-401-permissions-missing
I've taken a look at the StackOverflow question, I understand what's at play, but I'm not very familiar with their API nor what logical steps should I take to change the scope. Could you specify what to do, please?
The instructions are pretty detailed here: https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/general/guides/authorization-guide/
Under the Authorization Code Flow heading.
I haven't got time to walk you through the whole thing at the moment, but you start by going to this url (replace your client id here). What you want to get is the refresh token which you can place in the refresh token file in auth.
In your browser go to https://accounts.spotify.com/authorize?client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID&response_type=code&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Fcallback&scope=user-read-currently-playing
Thank you very much for your time and patience it is much appreciated.
Now I get errors from the script:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/autodidactic/bin/spotify_cava_colors", line 145, in <module>
buckets = bucket_sort(px, 3)
File "/home/autodidactic/bin/spotify_cava_colors", line 38, in bucket_sort
for color in [RED, GREEN, BLUE]
File "/home/autodidactic/bin/spotify_cava_colors", line 38, in <listcomp>
for color in [RED, GREEN, BLUE]
ValueError: min() arg is an empty sequence
Hmm, try playing a different song on spotify? Sometimes strange artwork (all white or all black) can make it glitch out. I'll try to fix it at some point, I've not used the script in a long time to be honest.
It seems that the min function is getting no items to compare, the min of 0 items doesn't make sense, therefore it errors on line 179 or so. Notify me if you fix the issue, I'll be watching your repo. I wish you a happy Sunday.
Could you please share an example cava config, because i don't have anything under ~/.config/ named /cava/config . I need the file, otherwise I think it'll work. Thank you for developing this app.
