Re: [Ubuntu-phone] Spotify support in native Ubuntu Music app

2016-06-16 Thread Jim Hodapp
Sure, the music-app source tree lives here:
https://code.launchpad.net/music-app

I'd highly recommend joining the IRC channel #ubuntu-media on freenode and
start a discussion with ahayzen on what help he might need in getting
Spotify UI support going. I'm sure he'd gladly accept the help from you!
Thanks for offering.

Jim

 We built a prototype which was based on an older (now deprecated)
 Spotify API. We always intended Spotify to be just one of a number of
 services which could be supported in the app. The idea being that
 developers could contribute support for other music platforms which
 are popular to them or in their region - given not everyone can get
 Spotify (or Pandora, Soundcloud etc).

 Spotify is a bit of a trickier one than most, so that's on hold for
 the short term. Right now we're looking at other options including
 OwnCloud/NextCloud & local LAN music playback. If developers are
 interested in helping here, especially if there's some service you
 think we should integrate, which you can assist with, that would be
 awesome.

As it is now, this branch
https://code.launchpad.net/~phablet-team/media-hub/media-hub-engine-refactor2
(which is currently out of date with master branch)
might be a good indicator of spotify support.

That would lead to other services also being available, spotify being
the first.
There are other parts for spotify as well.

But like Alan said, this is on hold for the time being.
One of the main issues is the outdated and unsupported libspotify for
linux... ;/

Can you be a little more specific? What parts do you want to help with and
I assume that you're wanting to help bring about Spotify support to Ubuntu
Touch? Do you want to get your hands really dirty on backend stuff or would
you rather help the music-app team with the frontend/UI integration work?

I am a developer interesting in helping.  I've been actively coding
prototypes in this area.  My main language is JavaScript, as I need to
leverage modules in node.  How can I learn more?

[Ubuntu-phone] Spotify support in native Ubuntu Music app

2016-06-15 Thread Krzysztof Tataradziński
Hello,
some time ago I read here [1] that
" It's also interesting to note that Ubuntu devs are also working on
Spotify integration, but that might take a while."
Is that truth? Is there any site at launchpad.net or somewhere else
where we can track progress of this feature?
