listentothissy

Discord bot that creates spotify playlists based on discord messages.

What does it do:
Listentothissy is a bot that's able to link a spotify playlist and a discord channel together. Whenever a spotify track is posted in the channel, the track is also added to the playlist.

Configuration

This bot requires a few necessary environment variables in order to function. These are;

- DISCORD_TOKEN - Discord bot token
- CLIENT_ID - spotify client id
- CLIENT_SECRET - spotify client secret
- REDIRECT_URI - spotify redirect uri

Usage

Link account

• Get an authorization url by sending ~link
• Visit the url and authorize the bot
• Send the following url to the bot using ~link <url>

Running

You can run this bot using cargo:

Docker-compose example:

version: '3'

services:
  thissy:
    build:
      context: ./listentothissy
      dockerfile: Dockerfile
    container_name: thissy
    volumes:
      - ./cache:/usr/src/thissy/cache
    environment:
      DISCORD_TOKEN: token
      CLIENT_ID: id
      CLIENT_SECRET: secret
      REDIRECT_URI: http://url:port

listentothissy's Issues

Feature: Use different playlists on a server

Use refresh tokens

Currently the bot only uses an access token. Using a refresh token will remove the need to login after a while.

Make server independent

Fix compiler warnings

Source code is messy and all warnings need to be checked/fixed.

Set bot to only listen on a specific channel (per server)

Store cache files in folder

In order to make running listentothissy on a docker host, the caching files should be stored in a different folder from the source. This makes it possible to update the bot without losing all configuration.
