When I read on Hacker News that the native desktop Spotify client is executing unusually high amounts of read/write operations to disk I wondered if there existed an electron wrapper around the official Spotify web client but to my surprise there wasn't. Upon looking into how I'd make one myself I stumbled upon this repo and used the api to slightly customize the way Natifier generates the electron app. After doing this I realized it would be cool to write a bash script which does all the steps for you and that's what this repo is for! It's just a simple bash script you can run with a single command to install the Spotify Electron Client!
You can run the install script without git cloning or anything, just run this single command in your MacOS terminal:
bash <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jamesmcintyre/spotify-electron-client/master/install-spotify.sh)
If you want to look at the script before running it: install-spotify.sh
I have only wrote an install script which I know will work on Mac OS (OSX) so please feel free to update the script to support Linux or Windows.
