Configuration

To run this extension you need to authorize it against you Spotify account, to do this visit https://www.mopidy.com/authenticate/#spotify and follow the instructions.

Example configuration:

The following configuration values are available:

  • spotify_web/enabled: If the Spotify extension should be enabled or not. Defaults to true.
  • spotify_web/client_id: Your Spotify application client id. You must provide this.
  • spotify_web/client_secret: Your Spotify application secret key. You must provide this.
  • spotify_web/mopidy_token_url: url to the authorization endpoint of the Mopidy OAuth bridge for Spotify. Defaults to https://auth.mopidy.com/spotify/token.
  • spotify_web/use_mopidy_oauth_bridge: Use this flag to switch between the Mopidy OAuth bridge and spotify authentication service. Defaults to true.
  • spotify_web/refresh_token: Your Spotify refresh token. This only needs to be provided if you do not want to use the Mopidy OAuth bridge.

Note:

In order to use mopidy-spotify-web the plugin requires to authenticate using OAuth. The easiest way is to use the OAuth bridge from Mopidy. This is configured as a default. If you do not wish to use this service on mopidy.com you can authenticate with Spotify directly. In order to do this you need to setup an application on https://developer.spotify.com/my-applications/ and then follow the tutorial on https://developer.spotify.com/web-api/tutorial/ to obtain a refresh_token. The refresh token must then be configured in the Mopidy configuration file. Please make sure to include the user-library-read scope when requesting the refresh token.
