## Building
# Building
Rust 1.18.0 or later is required to build librespot.
**If you are building librespot on macOS, the homebrew provided rust may fail due to the way in which homebrew installs rust. In this case, uninstall the homebrew version of rust and use [rustup](https://www.rustup.rs/), and librespot should then build.**
@ -51,80 +45,9 @@ cargo build --release
A sample program implementing a headless Spotify Connect receiver is provided.
Once you've built *librespot*, run it using :
```shell
target/release/librespot --username USERNAME --cache CACHEDIR --name DEVICENAME [--initial-volume 20]
target/release/librespot --name DEVICENAME
```
### All options
| Type | Short | Long | Description | Hint |
|----------|-------|---------------------|-------------------------------------------------|-------------|
| Option | c | cache | Path to a directory where files will be cached. | CACHE |
| Flag | | disable-audio-cache | Disable caching of the audio data. | |
| Required | n | name | Device name | NAME |
| Option | | device-type | Displayed device type | DEVICE_TYPE |
| Option | b | bitrate | Bitrate (96, 160 or 320). Defaults to 160 | BITRATE |
| Option | | onstart | Run PROGRAM when playback is about to begin. | |
| Option | | onstop | Run PROGRAM when playback has ended. | PROGRAM |
| Flag | v | verbose | Enable verbose output | PROGRAM |
| Option | u | username | Username to sign in with | USERNAME |
| Option | p | password | Password | PASSWORD |
| Flag | | disable-discovery | Disable discovery mode | |
| Option | | backend | Audio backend to use. Use '?' to list options | BACKEND |
| Option | | device | Audio device to use. Use '?' to list options | DEVICE |
| Option | | mixer | Mixer to use | MIXER |
| Option | | initial-volume | Initial volume in %, once connected [0-100] | VOLUME |

## Audio Backends
*librespot* supports various audio backends. Multiple backends can be enabled at compile time by enabling the
corresponding cargo feature. By default, only PortAudio is enabled.
A specific backend can selected at runtime using the `--backend` switch.
```shell
cargo build --features portaudio-backend
target/release/librespot [...] --backend portaudio
```
The following backends are currently available :
- ALSA
- PortAudio
- PulseAudio
## Cross-compiling
A cross compilation environment is provided as a docker image.
Build the image from the root of the project with the following command :
```
$ docker build -t librespot-cross -f contrib/Dockerfile .
```
The resulting image can be used to build librespot for linux x86_64, armhf (compatible e. g. with Raspberry Pi 2 or 3, but not with Raspberry Pi 1 or Zero) and armel.
The compiled binaries will be located in /tmp/librespot-build
```
docker run -v /tmp/librespot-build:/build librespot-cross
```
If only one architecture is desired, cargo can be invoked directly with the appropriate options :
```shell
docker run -v /tmp/librespot-build:/build librespot-cross cargo build --release --no-default-features --features alsa-backend
docker run -v /tmp/librespot-build:/build librespot-cross cargo build --release --target arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf --no-default-features --features alsa-backend
docker run -v /tmp/librespot-build:/build librespot-cross cargo build --release --target arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi --no-default-features --features alsa-backend
```
Don't forget to set the `with-tremor` feature flag if your target device does not have floating-point capabilities.
## Development
When developing *librespot*, it is preferable to use Rust nightly, and build it using the following :
```shell
cargo build --no-default-features --features "nightly portaudio-backend"
```
This produces better compilation error messages than with the default configuration.
## Disclaimer
Using this code to connect to Spotify's API is probably forbidden by them.
Use at your own risk.
