The Snapcraft package seems to have been removed. Therefore the links in the documentation should also be removed.

|
|
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), Linux (native package and Flathub) and the
|
|
BSD's. Detailed installation instructions for each platform can be found [here](/doc/users.md).

A configuration file can be provided at `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ncspot/config.toml`. Detailed

## 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).
