# MMM-Scrobbler

This is an extension for the [MagicMirror](https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror). It displays your currently playing music. To use this module you need to have a Last.fm account and scrobble your music.

## Installation

1. Navigate into your MagicMirror's `modules` folder and execute `git clone https://github.com/PtrBld/MMM-Scrobbler.git`.

2. A new folder will appear. That's all :)

## Configuration

You can scrobble all your music with Last.fm.

1. Create an [account](https://secure.last.fm/de/join)

2. Create an [api key](http://www.last.fm/api/account/create) (-- INFO: The api key has to be exclusive. If you already have a api key from another project, just create a new one for this project.)

3. Configure your client to scrobble your music. [How To: Scrobble to Last.fm from iTunes, Spotify, and more](http://www.cnet.com/how-to/how-to-scrobble-to-last-fm-from-itunes-spotify-and-more/)

## Module Usage

The entry in the `module array` in your `config.js` can look like the following. Only username and apikey are mandatory fields. All other fields have default values.

```

{

			

	module: 'MMM-Scrobbler',

	

	position: 'top_right',

	config: {

		username: 'Last.fm username',

	

		apikey: 'Last.fm api key',

	

		//time interval to search for new song (every 15 seconds)

		updateInterval: 15 * 1000,

		//how often should we try to retrieve a song if not listening

		delayCount: 5,

		//time interval to search for new song if the 5 times not listening is received.

		//set this to the same number as updateInterval to ignore this option	

		delayInterval: 120*1000,

		animationSpeed: 1000,

		showAlbumArt: true,

	    	showMetaData: true,

		//Determines the position of the meta text. Possible values: top, bottom, left, right

		alignment: "bottom", 

		//The scrobbler api is quite buggy, this will retry the exact same thing if it fails due to an api error

		//retryOnFailure: true,

		}
