Search API has been broken by Spotify #183
Comments
How is the state of login credentials in libspotify vs. the new API? |
https://developer.spotify.com/web-api/migration-guide/ has the migration guide for the old metadata API, but it's not clear what parts libspotify uses. I know at least search is effected. As for the auth story, https://developer.spotify.com/web-api/endpoint-reference/ has the overview. For basic lookups you don't need OAuth, but for playlists and browse you typically do. |
Also since this looks like just search for now a workaround should be relatively simple to hack up. |
Longer term we probably need to go the route that mopidy-spotify-web has already started down... |
Okay, so the migration guide mentions these new endpoints:
From the endpoint reference, none of these require authentication. So we can implement support for these in pyspotify without requiring any additional authentication, so that's at least good. |
For information, this has been fixed for now in Mopidy-Spotify with mopidy/mopidy-spotify#95. It's undecided if we want a fix for this in pyspotify, or to keep pyspotify only as a plain wrapper around libspotify. |
Just to get it on the record: The scope of the pyspotify project is to be a libspotify wrapper. pyspotify already covers the full libspotify API, and pyspotify is thus a mostly complete project. Any support for the Spotify Web API is out of scope for the pyspotify project. |
mopidy/mopidy-spotify#89
Best bet is likely to retrofit the new web API within the existing API wrapper to keep things working with minimal external API changes.
