## Installation

Dependencies:

* dbus

### Installation with Tmux Plugin Manager

Edit your `.tmux.conf` and append the plugin to your TPM list.

```tmux

set -g @plugin 'feqzz/tmux-spotify-info'

```

Remember to hit ` + I` to install the plugin.

### Manual

Clone the repo:

``` bash

git clone https://github.com/feqzz/tmux-spotify-info ~/.tmux/

```

Edit your `.tmux.conf` and add this line at the bottom.

``` bash

run-shell ~/.tmux/tmux-spotify-info/tmux-spotify-info.tmux

```

Last step is to reload the tmux config file.

``` bash

tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf

```

## Usage

Edit your `.tmux.conf` file and add `#{spotify_info}` to your `status-right`. Simple example:

``` tmux

set -g status-right "#{spotify_info}"

```

As the length of some song titles can be very long, it can be useful to add this line to your `.tmux.conf` to avoid overflow.

``` tmux

set -g status-right-length 200

```
