Common Errors:

  • If you get an error regard NonType, make sure you are playing a song! (otherwise spotify drops your "currently playing" and you cant access it!)
  • If you are getting a creds error (export=blahlbahlblah), run the lines in the creds.txt file 1 by 1 in terminal (make sure you have replced each item to your own)
  1. if you don't know where to get those, follow this: https://developer.spotify.com/
  2. Make a new account, and makea new app.
  3. Check your dashboard and click on that app, get the creds there.
