Spotify¶

Add a Spotify block to your Dashboard.

With the Spotify block you can select a Spotify playlist, set volume, skip to next song.

The Spotify block in Dashticz is not a player, but a remote control. That means there must be a Spotify player somewhere in your local network. This can be your laptop running the Spotify player, or a Spotify connect speaker.

Note

You must have a Spotify Premium account

Before you can use it, create an app on the Spotify website:

Title: Dashticz

Description: whatever ;)

On the next page, copy “Client ID” to your CONFIG.js like:

config['spot_clientid'] = '1112f16564cf4f4dsd4cbe8b52c58a44';

At the same page, enter your dashticz-url in the Redirect URIs field, for example: http://192.168.1.3:8080/

Warning

Don’t forget to push the save button!

In CONFIG.js add the block like:

columns[2] = {}
columns[2]['blocks'] = ['spotify']
columns[2]['width'] = 5;

Complete example:

config['spot_clientid'] = '1112f16564cf4f4dsd4cbe8b52c58a44';

columns[2] = {}
columns[2]['blocks'] = ['spotify']
columns[2]['width'] = 5;
