# Spotify Tray

_MacOS only_

![preview](./preview.png)

## Description

This application fetches spotify status with osascript from the Spotify Desktop application and displays the result in the system tray.

## How to use the app

Download the latest version of the app dmg from the [releases page](https://github.com/aaronhallaert/spotify-tray/releases)

Launch the app or from the terminal as a process. A system tray should appear with information about current track data from the Spotify desktop app. You can format this information with some options by clicking on the system tray:

- `Show artist first`: show the artist first and then the title (default: `true`)
- `Show album`: show the album as well (default: `false`, lot of space get's taken in if you also enable the album)
- `Show progress`: show a percentage with how far the track has progressed (default: `true`)
- `Use more space`: use `64` characters for artist and `64` characters for track title, otherwise use `20` characters (default: `true`)
- `Use alternate separator`: use `-§-` as a separator instead of `-`.
- `Open at login`: open the app when mac starts up or user logs in
