A Spotify Connect Scrobbler

A Small Webservice That Scrobbles Spotify Connect Plays

Setup

The best way to run this scrobbler is with virtualenv. Assuming you have already virtualenv and Python 3.6 installed, create a new environment

virtualenv <path to env> --python=python3.6

Activate the environment and install the scrobbler from git:

cd <path to env>
source bin/activate
bin/pip install git+https://github.com/jeschkies/spotify-connect-scrobbler.git

Verify that the scrobbler is avialable:

scrobbler --help

The scrobbler requires access tokens to the Spotify web API and Last.fm API. You authenticate your accounts with

SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID=<Your app ID> \
SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET=<Your app secret> \
LASTFM_API_KEY=<Your app key> \
LASTFM_API_SECRET=<Your app secret> \
scrobbler-auth <path to credentials file>

After you've followed the instructions the access tokens are saved to the credentials file you've specified. This file is required by the scrobbler.
