#spotigration Spotify playlist collaboration through Slack and Telegram Bots.
##Spotify configuration
Head over to Spotify's Developer Site and create a new Application. Make sure you add whatever spotigration's callback URI as a valid callback URI. If you're running locally, this will be http://localhost:5000/callback
Make a note of the key, secret and callback URI too, as you'll need these later as well.
Also, don't forget to make a playlist. If you do this through Spotify's web interface then the playlist identifier will be the last segment of the URI - make a note of this too! If there's a better way of finding this out, we're all ears. If you do this through the app, right-click the playlist to get it's web URL and again, you need the last segment of the URI.
###Environment variables
Once you've cloned spotigration you'll need to setup the following environment variables. These can be stored in a .envfile.
SPOTIFY_KEY- Your Spotify application key (a.k.a Client ID).SPOTIFY_SECRET- Your Spotify application secret (a.k.a Client Secret).SPOTIFY_USERNAME- Your Spotify username.SPOTIFY_PLAYLIST_ID- Your playlist identifier.SPOTIFY_REDIRECT_URI- URI to redirect to once your user has allowed the application's permissions.
###Authentication
Visit your spotigration's home page to authenticate yourself with Spotify and you should be all set!
##Slack configuration
Create a Slash Command, such as /spotify, which accepts a track name (also the artist too for a less fuzzy search) to add to a pre-defined Spotify playlist:
/spotify Bell Biv DeVoe – Poison
###Installation
First you'll want to create your Slack Slash Command, which you can do by going to your Slash Commands page.
During setup, have your slash command submit a POST to your app's /store endpoint, e.g. https://your-server.tld/store.
Make a note of the token, as you'll need it later to help guard against cross-site request forgery.
###Environment variables
In order to use the slack integration you've to extend the environment variables by the following property.
SLACK_TOKEN- The token from Slack's Slash Command.
##Telegram configuration
Visit the telegram bot introduction and use @botFather to create a new bot. Note the HTTP API token as you will need it to extend your .env file.
TELEGRAM_TOKEN- The token the @botFather provided you with.
