Provide explanation how to find the Spotify Cache folder #7

Closed KuSi833 closed 1 year ago

KuSi833 commented 2 years ago

The app couldn't automatically find my Spotify Cache folder on Windows, and I didn't find it immediately obvious to which folder to point the --cache option to. It might be useful to add to the --cache option description that it can be found under Settings -> Offline storage location ?

@KuSi833 I appreciate your comment about Settings -> Offline storage location. The app currently only supports macOS and Linux, however there has been some discussion about also supporting Windows here: https://github.com/mikez/spotify-folders/issues/6#issuecomment-1114093806

@KuSi833 The app now supports Windows. I added Settings -> Offline storage location to the help message which appears if no cache files were found.

$ spotifyfolders --cache /dev/null
No data found in Spotify cache. If you have a custom cache directory set,
specify its path with the `--cache` flag. Also, in the Spotify app,
check Settings -> Offline storage location.
