ohitstom / spicetify-easyinstall

An open source GUI for installing Spicetify.

Archived 📦

This was my first ever official "project" and in the current state of Spicetify (especially with a rust rewrite coming in the future) i do not have the time or passion to maintain this codespace anymore.

Not only have i not used python properly in around 2 years, but alot of what this installer aimed to solve has been implemented directly into Spicetifys install script and preprocessing logic.

This repo is a work in progress and could benefit from contributors.

A fallback tool for installing spicetify. 100% open source, with an easy to use gui.

Features

• Downloads and installs spotify and spicetify.
• Provides an easy way to uninstall spicetify.
• Downloading of many currently available themes and extensions, including adblock.
• Simple config modifier, can be ran any time using the startup menu.

spicetify-easyinstall's Issues

I would like to create GUI's like this

Hello, I really love the way this gui looks and the fact its in python makes it even better, is it possible for you to tell me how you did this and how I could do this myself?

I don't know coding, but just wanted to send this in. I'm unable to download spicetify properly, and always get stuck on this even with various restarts and reinstalls.

Installation error

Whenever I try to install spicetify it keeps on giving me an error on step 4

Support for spaced folder name

Describe the bug
When installing, my folder name is "Artur Mancha" and the installation crashes because it looks for a folder called "Artur".

"No such file or directory" when installing themes

Spicetify has had some path changes and I've yet to fully fix it, on holiday until tomorrow but I'll finish it and release it when I get back

Originally posted by @ohitstom in #32 (comment)

Is it really fixed? Have the same issue. Installer version - 3.6, latest. No additional settings checked, just regular install.

Windows username with space

Looks like the program isn't happy with my Windows username with a space in it, and throws some errors or maybe its something else.

Time to add updates

The cl that it downloads are not up-to date and the marketplace it downloads also isnt.

File not found

Something went wrong when installing with 3.0

Describe the bug
Trying to install Spicetify with version 3.0 doesn't work.
I tried it with both Admin rights and without, and both don't work for me.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Without admin

1. Launch EasyInstall.
2. Click on 'Install'
3. Wait until step 5
4. 

With admin

1. Launch EasyInstall.
2. Click on 'Install'
3. Wait until step 5
4. Spotify warns about how you shouldn't install with an admin account
5. Installer times out

Expected behavior
It should just install Spicetify

I was able to circumvent this error by running the installer with admin, and installing spotify myself, by running the installer downloaded in temp myself, right as the error from Spotify pops up telling me to not install it with admin.

Deleted all configs

Describe the bug
Uninstalled spotify and spicetify, deleted all my spotify and spicetify configs, and then left me on the side of the road in a desert with a "could not install" error. Epic

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Download this
2. Press install
3. Ruin configs
4. Cry about it unhelpfully on github issues

Expected behavior
Not delete all my configs and remove my CMD command for spicetify so I have to redo everything from scratch

Screenshots
I already deleted this thing out of frustration and I'm prob not gonna download this again

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: windows 10
• Browser: Brave (chromium)
• Version: didnt bother

Additional context
No this isn't helpful to you fixing the issue I just wanted to cry about it online because I'm angry about it

after installing spotify and spicetify, it tries to install themes in spicetify-cli but the folder doesn't exist
