1. Installation

pip3 install touchbar_lyric --upgrade

2. Configuration in BetterTouchTool

Same as Kashi:

  1. Copy&paste the content in lyric.json in Meun Bar > Touch Bar;
  2. Change the python path $PYTHONPATH to your own python path in the script area;
$PYTHONPATH -m touchbar_lyric --app Music

or use Spotify(default)

$PYTHONPATH -m touchbar_lyric --app Spotify

Show Traditional Chinese lyrics

$PYTHONPATH -m touchbar_lyric --app Spotify --traditional

Be careful with typing double hyphens in BTT. It automatically change it to an em slash. Use copy & paste instead!
