12 years ago @aish9r is right; most of the errors I see in the log are cause by the missing declaration of libspotify API structs.
Anyway, I do not have tried to compile on Windows yet. The code is mostly written with portability in mind, but there will be surely a few quirks to resolve before it works flawlessly.

12 years ago Hey!
Thanks for your answers =)
I tried adding ~\libspotify\include to my path, as well as ~\libspotify\lib and I still have the error.
I also tried to copy the ~\libspotify\include\libspotify directory in the ~\mopidy-pyspotify-3d62577\src, so libspotify/api.h is found when compiling. But I then get another error when linking. Here's a snippet of the log below. I guess it's because the lib cannot be found but it's strange because it's in the path now... Maybe a path separator problem ("\" vs "/") ?

error: command 'dllwrap' failed with exit status 1You need to add the API headers in the include path (add something like -I~\libspotify\include to your compiler options) and the shared library in the library path (add -L~\libspotify\lib to your linker options). This will allow the compiler to find the necessary include files, and your linker to find the necessary binary objects.

11 years ago I've just tried to compile in Win8. I've gotten pretty far, but now I'm stuck on the missing libgen.h and unistd.h files. These do not exists in Windows, and haven't been ported either.
A couple of other Open Source projects I found in my search of these files, actively tells their developers to refrain from using them, because of cross-platform issues.

10 years ago Here are some Instructions on how to install pyspotify on Windows 8, I've done this on two different computers and its worked both times without issue.
Install Python 2.7 32bit
Install setuptools for Python 2.7 32bit http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#setuptools
Install pip for Python 2.7 32bit http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pip
Install PyAudio for Python 2.7 32bit http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pyaudio
Install MinGW http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/ (Select the base package when asked)
Add the Scripts folder for your python install and the bin folder for you MinGW install and add both of their locations to the path variable. For me this was C:\Python27\Scripts\ and C:\MinGW\bin\
Then Edit or Create the file in your python install at C:\Python27\Lib\distutils\distutils.cfg
distutils.cfg should have the 2 lines below as its content
[build]
compiler=mingw32Now we need to take out -mno-cygwin flag from C:\Python27\Lib\distutils\cygwincompiler.py It should start around line 326 after you edit the snippet it should look like
self.set_executables(compiler='gcc -O -Wall',
compiler_so='gcc -mdll -O -Wall',
compiler_cxx='g++ -O -Wall',
linker_exe='gcc',
linker_so='%s %s %s'
% (self.linker_dll, shared_option,
entry_point))Take libspotify.lib that you got from spotify.com and rename it to spotify.lib then move it to C:\Python27\libs
Then take the libspotify folder under include in the libspotify package and move it to C:\MinGW\include\
then type in cmd pip install -U pyspotify
If you have any questions just shoot me an email at Jacob.Durman@gmail.com

10 years ago Awesome!
I guess I got it working: Successfully installed pyspotify Cleaning up...
I was hoping to get Spotify going on Plex on my Windows XP - but it seems I need to do some more... At least this is a good start ;-)
Edit: I wonder if the build itself really works... I removed self.dll_libraries = get_msvcr() from cygwincompiler.py (kind of mentioned http://bugs.python.org/issue16472) Then pyspotify is at least possible to load in Plex - but it crashes when calling spotify.Session.create(self, self.settings)
I also tried the Jukebox (to see if it was plex related) - python crashes instead. So suggestion above doesn't seem to work for me at least.

10 years ago Here's the output from the crash report (Dr Watson) running jukebox - not sure if I can make the information more informative in anyway - I don't know much about Windows development... Any Help would be appreciated.

9 years ago Due to the imminent release of the 2.0 rewrite of pyspotify, compilation of pyspotify 1.x on Windows will probably never be documented/supported. I'm closing this issue.
Feel free to open a new issue to discuss how to compile pyspotify 2 on Windows.
Hi!
I tried compiling on WinXP and ran into several problems I thought you'd like to know. First, compilation does not work for me with the latest version of gcc (the option '-mno-cygwin' is no longer supported). Then I tried to downgrade to gcc 3.4.5 but I got compilation errors (log below). Apparently PyObject_HEAD is not recognized, although we do have #include at the beginning of module.c
Do you have any idea on how to fix this or is there something stupid I'm missing?
Thanks in advance!
