Spotify:Source

1.0.2

What is Spotify:Source?

• Music player plugin
• Similar to "Grooveshark"
• For Spotify!

Requirements

• SteamTools (here)
• SMJansson (here)

ConVars

• sm_sp_version - It is what it says, the version of the plugin.

Commands

• sm_sp <song name> - Play a song, the first time this command is run it opens the motd to allow the user to log in.
• sm_spstop - Stop any music that is playing (this is useful as Spotify assumes you want to listen to the rest of the album).
• sm_sp_reset - Resets the first time check, this is so you can re-attempt a login if you closed it by accident.

ToDo

• Improve error messages
• Support for other games

Demonstration

• YouTube Demo (here)

Any way to use grooveshark.io as website?

Managed to get it working now, there are flaws as expected with late night coding, i will do my best to iron out those flaws and improve it as best i can.

The main problem i encountered is arrays, if anyone knows how to pull stuff deep from arrays (i know the items im trying to read) id be able to use it direct from the Spotify api but im having to relay the query through a php script to make it readable for the plugin (poor thing).

edit: i also had to fix something like 30+ errors in the json.inc file (mainly due to certain things being depreciated and causing issues with sm compiler), so ill be working on both optimising the plugin and the include file.

edit2: you can test it on my sniper server @ 108.61.165.59:27015 and heres a demo video http://youtu.be/M47eXzIg7XQ

Ok guys, i re-wrote it to be dependant on the SMJansson extension rather than the sm json include, the smjansson is faster, works better, and i am able to use it to read the response from Spotify's api directly. This removes the need for me to host a relay script, it also reduced the size of the compiled plugin somehow despite there being more code lol.

You can test it out @ 108.61.165.59:27015 and here's a video of it http://youtu.be/M47eXzIg7XQ

well, its better than sm_spotify_please_play_me_a_song / sm_spotify_please_stop_playing_music

edit: if anyone knows how to check clients web browser cookies, id like to make it so if the user is already logged in it wont show motd, and always show motd if not logged in

For a future approval you could put a version convar with a more descriptive name. "sm_sp_version" doesn't tell much. You also don't need to prefix your convar with "sm_". It is however a good thing that you do it with commands.
