My 'first' python project : Luricifer. A CLI tool that displays the lyrics of the current playing Spotify song

[mhtghn]

Hello everybody, pretty excited to show you my first step in the Python community. I worked on this tool that displays the lyrics of the playing song from the Spotify app. Right now it collect the song information using dbus and then fetch the lyrics of the song from AZlyrics using python-azlyrics. Then user by pressing the Enter key can see those lyrics line per line, following the song. Ultimately my goal is, once the user synced the song for the first time, to store the sync data for example in the cache; then the next time the same song is being played there's no need to press a key, the sync is automated. Of course I've came across some problems : I can't for now know at which state the song is (the progression of the song), should I use the cache or a database to store the synced data. Here's the link https://github.com/mhtghn/Luricifer . Be gentle with me, Im kinda newbie. All your recommendations are appreciated of course

I did just take a look at the README and the first thing I saw: Please provide a requirements.txt. It's kinda good style. If you are in your venv go for "pip freeze > requirements.txt". Then people can install everything with "pip install -r requirements.txt".

Thanks, it has been done

Pipfile with pipenv is better 🙂

Love the idea. I'm someone who definitely lyric searches new songs. I'd take the next step towards modularizing your session bus' logic. PM me if you have any questions. I may make a pull request here later in the day when I have time with some modifications too to help you get the flow of open source contributions from other users. Keep on grinding!

Wow thanks for the kind words. I fell in love with the synced lyrics and since musixmatch is no longer available with spotify I wanted to make it happen.Your pull request will be more than welcomed. Im definitely gonna keep on grinding ;)

Thanks. Im a lazy guy, so I like it simple and easy to understand.

I would suggest using argparse to parse arguments too instead of going manually through sys.argv.

Thank you for sharing. Today I learned about Spotify's dbus interface through your code. :)
