SpoTuya

SpoTuya, formerly known as Spotify-Tuya, is a simple background process script to change the color of your Tuya lights based on the cover art of the song you're listening to on Spotify. It is written in JavaScript and is easy to set up. SpoTuya uses the Tuya API to control the lights and the Spotify Web API to get the cover art of the song you're listening to. SpoTuya is a fun project that I created to learn more about the Tuya and Spotify APIs and to have a cool feature in my room. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do and remember to leave a star!

Cloud API

Starting from version 2.0.0, SpoTuya has been rewritten to use the Tuya Cloud API instead of the Tuya Local API. This means that you no longer need to be on the same network as your Tuya devices to control them. This also means that you can control your devices from anywhere in the world as long as you have an internet connection. The setup process has remained the same, but the way SpoTuya works has changed. You can now use .env files to store your credentials to make running SpoTuya in the cloud easier. Please refer to example.env for an example of how to set up your .env file.

Installation

To install SpoTuya clone this repository and run npm install -g .. This will install the CLI globally on your machine. You can also install it locally by running npm install ..

Setup

To set up SpoTuya you just have to run spotuya setup or spotuya wizard and follow the instructions. You will be asked to provide a Tuya ID, a Tuya Secret and (sometimes) a single device's virtual ID. You can find the Tuya ID and Secret in the Tuya Developer Console. The virtual ID can be found under the devices tab in the project console. Remember that you first need to add your devices to the project via the Tuya Smart app before running the SpoTuya wizard. After all that information has been provided, the wizard will ask for a Spotify Application ID and Secret and open a Spotify OAuth2 page where you will be asked to log in and authorize the application.
If you want to use SpoTuya in the cloud, you can create a .env file in the root directory of the project based on the example.env file. You will most likely need to run spotuya setup at least once to get your needed credentials from your usual config file.

Usage

To use SpoTuya you just have to run the command spotuya start and it will start listening for Spotify events. You can also run spotuya help to see all the available commands.
