Spotispy 0.0.9 index.html in Chrome #26

Open muuud opened 6 years ago

I can successfully run spotispy 0.0.9 from source code on a Mac, using npm (though I had to unblock http://open.spotify.com/ from my hosts file), and am trying to figure out how to cast the app to a chromecast, to display the album artwork on my Tv. My first though was to try and open the index file in a Chrome tab and then mirror it, but when I do that it simply says, "Waiting for Spotify..." and I am assuming this is because the javascript fails to run properly. Any one have any suggestions for a fix to getting spotispy open in chrome?

How were you able to unblock it from the host file?

Spotispy uses Electron's IPC to interface with the UI. You could write an HTTP API for main.js to accomplish this.
