I'm sorry if this question has already been asked, but how do you get a playlist to show up inside an index.html for a Spotify App? I've looked all over, and I couldn't find a clear way to do this. I consulted the api-tutorial app and I tried looking over the API Docs. Am I just missing it? I experimented with but that didn't work either.
Also, aside from that, is there a way for only single tracks from the app user's library be dragged into a box to be added to the displayed playlist in real time? Or at least dragged into the box and the data be populated in some type of playlist in my personal profile at least? Or otherwise?
Thanks very much for your help!
Edit: My mistake. Looking at the documentation for Spotify Apps API, the Player class has the property track which gives the current playing track. The above URL shows how to use the observer interface to be notified when it changes.

So I'm Working on a NodeJs project and am wondering if there is a way to get audio from Spotify Like you Input a song URL and It plays the track, I've looked all around and can only find stuff for the web browser, I don't know if they even have a way. If there is any info about this please let me know.
You'd have to make calls through the Spotify API.
You can read more about the API here: Spotify API Documentation
This is a node.js specific library that you may also want to check out:

The answer provisioned and marked as correct is wrong.
The only way you can extract audio is by using a Windows VM, connect via RDP. Run a script to play Spotify programatically and record the audio.
Since this is the only solution. It is not possible to query data from Spotify.
I was searching for a way to get some information from chrome webstore (I have couple of extensions there) specifically feedbacks from users and user count. And I would like to do something with that data.
I searched about chrome web store API
but couldn't find anything.
found launchkit which does same thing, but for appStore
I am thinking there is no straight way to do it, but if anyone has done it or got some idea about it please share it along,
Thanks in advance
A simple google tells me there are already some possible helpful answers:
Get user feedbacks
How to get user feedback/bug reports on a Chrome Extension through itself?
Get user count
API call for user count in Chrome Web Store?
The closest I can find out is chromebeat and my extensions I would have to figure out how this works without an existing API and write my own after that I guess.
I've been looking through the API support section of the Spotify website for any way to see what everyone in, for instance, Amsterdam is listening to right now.
I did find this web app that appears to do exactly that but it's from Spotify itself and I'm not sure if all developers can have access to the same data.
If anyone could point me in the right direction (even if it is letting me know it's impossible) that would be fantastic!
That is a Spotify's project using data that is not currently exposed through Spotify APIs.
The closest you can find is the Charts API which can provide you with daily top charts by country.
I am trying to write a simple chrome app to play a sequence of online pictures on my chromecast device.
I have looked at some examples, but could't find anything which I could tweak around to get the simple behavior i needed. Maybe someone here could help, by providing directions or advise on getting started with developing something like that for chromecast.
UPDATE:
To give you a better idea, about the specifics, let me add some more details to my requirements.
It needs to be controlled from chrome
I want to pass a playlist with 10s-100s of images so it can slide them in circles.
After receiving playlist chromecast device should be able to continue on its own, without continuously asking for next image.
This is actually similar to backdrop feature Google is planning to introduce, but I wanted to write something myself.
Thanks
If you don't want to develop your own Cast receiver, then you can use the media namespace channel and the Styled Media Receiver to display a photo at a time:
https://developers.google.com/cast/docs/styled_receiver
You will have to add the logic to advance from photo to photo in your sender app.
If you are willing to develop your own custom receiver, then you can start with this Cast sample app:
https://github.com/googlecast/CastHelloText-android
It allows you to send messages to a custom receiver. You can use that to send the URLs of the photos and then you can add JavaScript logic in the receiver to play a slideshow.
Just to let you know, I have tried various options and ended up writing custom receiver and Chrome sender applications. This was really straightforward and exactly what I wanted.
See the links above for guidance and also examples here.
I'd like to allow Spotify users to post a small note along with a song when they post in a collaborative playlist. Is this possible with a Spotify app, or will I have to implement something else? Thoughts?
+1 for the feature idea, but I don't believe it's possible with the current system. You could maintain your own database of comments linked to the playlist and track ids and display it in a Spotify app.
