ncspot is an ncurses Spotify client written in Rust using librespot. It is heavily inspired by ncurses MPD clients, such as [ncmpc](https://musicpd.org/clients/ncmpc/). My motivation was to provide a simple and resource friendly alternative to the official client as well as to support platforms that currently don't have a Spotify client, such as the \*BSDs. ncspot only works with a Spotify premium account as it offers features that are not available for free accounts. ## Features - Support for tracks, albums, playlists, genres, searching... - Small [resource footprint](doc/resource_footprint.md) - Support for a lot of platforms - Vim keybindings out of the box - IPC socket for remote control - Automatic authentication using a password manager ## Installation ncspot is available on macOS (Homebrew), Windows (Scoop, WinGet), Linux (native package, Flathub and Snapcraft) and the BSD's. Detailed installation instructions for each platform can be found [here](/doc/users.md). ## Configuration A configuration file can be provided. The default location is `~/.config/ncspot`. Detailed configuration information can be found [here](/doc/users.md#configuration). ## Building Building ncspot requires a working [Rust installation](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install) and a Python 3 installation. To compile ncspot, run `cargo build`. For detailed instructions on building ncspot, there is more information [here](/doc/developers.md). ## Packaging Information about provided files, how to generate some of them and current package status accross platforms can be found [here](/doc/package_maintainers.md).
