spotify-web-api-client

Universal client for the Spotify web API.

❗️❗️ DISCLAIMER: This was written to solve a particular need I had. It might not end up getting actively maintained!

This client aims to be flexible enough to be either as minimal or full-fledged as you need. Each endpoint can be called with a simple function, and you're not tied into any http library under the hood. Consumers of the library can use the default Fetch-based http client (or 'fetcher') and polyfill as needed. Alternatively, you create your own based on based on your library of choice.

Middleware gives you the possibility to perform some actions before each request is made to the Spotify API, such as logging. This is also the primary way that authentication is added to each request. Create an auth middleware via the supplied helpers and pass this to createClient, and the necessary headers will be added automatically to each request.

Having 'fetchers' passed in from the outside allows for a whole lot of flexibility. Alongside not being tied to any particular library, it makes it easy to add custom timeout logic, request retries. And, if you don't want to go via middleware, you can always do authentication in a custom fetcher and modifier headers yourself.

Installation

With yarn

yarn add spotify-web-api-client

With npm

npm i spotify-web-api-client

Creating a client

Create a client using the createClient function. This should subsequently be passed to all endpoint functions in order to execute requests to the Spotify API.

The client is nothing special. It's just a function that takes a RequestConfig object as an argument and passes that through the middleware chain and returns the response.

import { createClient } from 'spotify-web-api-client';
import { fetcher } from 'spotify-web-api-client/fetcher';

const client = createClient(fetcher);

This above example doesn't do very much yet - it'll make a network request, but that's about it. We can add some middleware in order to start making authenticated requests to Spotify.

Adding middleware

Middleware lets you perform actions just before and just after each request to the Spotify API. This is a useful place to do things like logging, error reporting, applying timeouts, etc. It's also the out-of-the-box way to add authentication to your requests. Read more about auth middleware

If this looks familiar at all, it's because I totally ripped the API from Redux.

function loggerMiddleware(next: MiddlewareFetcher) {
  return (request: RequestConfig) => {
    console.log(`Making request to Spotify: ${JSON.stringify(request)}`);
    return next(request);
  };
}

const client = createClient(fetcher, loggerMiddleware);

A middleware function takes the next middleware as its argument and returns a function that takes a request. This function must then return the result of calling next(request). The function returned from your middleware can also be asynchronous.

Chaining middleware

composeMiddleware takes any number of middleware functions and composes them together using reduceRight under the hood.

import { createClient } from 'spotify-web-api-client';
import { fetcher } from 'spotify-web-api-client/fetcher';
import {
  createAuthMiddleware,
  composeMiddleware
} from 'spotify-web-api-client/middleware';

const authMiddleware = createAuthMiddleware({
  token: () => getTokenFromSomewhere(),
  client_id: '<CLIENT_ID>',
  client_secret: '<CLIENT_SECRET>'
});

function addLogging(next: MiddlewareFetcher) {
  return (request: RequestConfig) => {
    console.log(`Making request to Spotify: ${JSON.stringify(request)}`);
    return next(request);
  };
}

function addCrashReporting(next: MiddlewareFetcher) {
  return (request: RequestConfig) => {
    try {
      return next(request);
    } catch (error) {
      console.log(`Error! ${error.message}`);
      Sentry.captureException(error, {
        extra: {
          url: request.url
        }
      });
      throw error;
    }
  };
}

// Middleware functions are composed right-to-left
const middleware = composeMiddleware(
  authMiddleware,
  loggerMiddleware,
  crashMiddleware
);

const client = createClient(fetcher, middleware);

Auth middleware

Middleware is the default way of adding authentication to your requests, and the library comes with a few helpers to do this: createAuthMiddleware, createBasicAuthMiddleware and createBearerAuthMiddleware.

import { createClient } from 'spotify-web-api-client';
import { fetcher } from 'spotify-web-api-client/fetcher';
import {
  createAuthMiddleware,
  createBasicAuthMiddleware,
  createBearerAuthMiddleware
} from 'spotify-web-api-client/middleware';

const addAuth = createAuthMiddleware({
  token: 'TOKEN',
  client_id: '<CLIENT_ID>',
  client_secret: '<CLIENT_SECRET>'
});
// This client will add the correct headers for any request.
const client = createClient(fetcher, addAuth);

const addBasicAuth = createBasicAuthMiddleware({
  token: 'TOKEN',
  client_id: '<CLIENT_ID>',
  client_secret: '<CLIENT_SECRET>'
});
// This client will be able to handle any endpoint that requires
// `Basic` auth headers, e.g. authentication endpoints.
const basicClient = createClient(fetcher, addBasicAuth);

const addBearerAuth = createBearerAuthMiddleware({
  token: 'TOKEN'
});
// This client will be able to handle any endpoint that requires
// `Bearer` auth headers, e.g. everything that's not authentication.
const addBearerAuth = createClient(fetcher, addBearerAuth);

Authenticating

Read the Spotify docs on authentication flows.

❗️❗️ Important: Never expose your client secret on the frontend! Check which flow is most applicable for your needs.

Authorization code flow

  1. Direct the user to Spotify to authorize your application.
import { createAuthorizationCodeUrl } from 'spotify-web-api-client/auth';
import { app } from './app';

// Imagine app is some Express application you have running.
app.get('/login', (_, res) => {
  const authUrl = createAuthorizationCodeUrl({
    client_id: '<CLIENT_ID>',
    redirect_uri: '<REDIRECT_URI>',
    state: '<STATE>',
    scope: ['user-read-playback-state', 'user-modify-playback-state']
  });

  return res.redirect(authURL);
});
  1. Grab the authorization code from the URL when the user is redirected back to your redirect_uri and request refresh and access tokens.
import { app } from './app';
import { createClient } from 'spotify-web-api-client';
import { createBasicAuthMiddleware } from 'spotify-web-api-client/middleware';
import { fetcher } from 'spotify-web-api-client/fetcher';
import { authorizationCode } from 'spotify-web-api-client/auth';

const addBasicAuth = createBasicAuthMiddleware({
  client_id: '<CLIENT_ID>',
  client_secret: '<CLIENT_SECRET>'
});

const client = createClient(fetcher, addBasicAuth);

// Imagine app is some Express application you have running.
app.get('/callback', (req, res, next) => {
  const { code, error, state } = req.query;

  // You should do something here if there was an error
  // or the states don't match!

  try {
    const { body } = await authorizationCode(client, {
      code,
      redirect_uri: '<REDIRECT_URI>'
    });

    const { access_token, expires_in, refresh_token } = body;

    // Do something with the tokens here...

    return res.send('Authenticated!');
  } catch (error) {
    next(error);
  }
});
  1. Add authentication to your requests to the Spotify API
import { createClient } from 'spotify-web-api-client';
import { fetcher } from 'spotify-web-api-client/fetcher';
import { createBearerAuthMiddleware } from 'spotify-web-api-client/middleware';
import { play } from 'spotify-web-api-client/player';

const addBearerAuth = createBearerAuthMiddleware({
  token: '<TOKEN>'
});

const client = createClient(fetcher, addBearerAuth);

async function playSpotify() {
  await play(client);
}

playSpotify();

Authorization code flow with PKCE

Read the Spotify docs for this flow

🗒 Note: The Spotify docs contain more info on generating a code verifier and code challenge. It's worth checking this out!

  1. Direct the user to Spotify to authorize your application.
import { createAuthorizationCodeWithPkceUrl } from 'spotify-web-api-client/auth';
import { app } from './app';

// Imagine app is some Express application you have running.
app.get('/login', (_, res) => {
  const authUrl = createAuthorizationCodeWithPkceUrl({
    client_id: '<CLIENT_ID>',
    redirect_uri: '<REDIRECT_URI>',
    state: '<STATE',
    scope: ['user-read-playback-state', 'user-modify-playback-state'],
    code_challenge: '<CODE_CHALLENGE>'
  });

  return res.redirect(authUrl);
});
  1. Grab the authorization code from the URL when the user is redirected back to your redirect_uri and request refresh and access tokens.
import { app } from './app';
import { createClient } from 'spotify-web-api-client';
import { fetcher } from 'spotify-web-api-client/fetcher';
import { authorizationCodeFlow } from 'spotify-web-api-client/auth';

// Note: No auth middleware is technically required for
// the PKCE flow, but a new client would need to be created
// once you've retrieved the tokens.
const client = createClient(fetcher);

// Imagine app is some Express application you have running.
app.get('/callback', async (req, res, next) => {
  const { code, error, state } = req.query;

  // You should do something here if there was an error
  // or the states don't match!

  try {
    const { body } = await authorizationCodeWithPkce(client, {
      code,
      client_id: '<CLIENT_ID>',
      redirect_uri: '<REDIRECT_URI>',
      code_verifier: '<CODE_VERIFIER>'
    });

    const { access_token, expires_in, refresh_token } = body;

    saveTokensSomewhere({ access_token, expires_in, refresh_token });

    return res.send('Authenticated!');
  } catch (error) {
    next(error);
  }
});

  token: '<TOKEN>'
});

const client = createClient(fetcher, addAuth);

async () => {
  await play(client);
};

Implicit grant flow

Read the Spotify docs for this flow.

  1. Direct the user to Spotify to authorize your application.
import { createImplicitGrantUrl } from 'spotify-web-api-client/auth';

function login() {
  const authUrl = createImplicitGrantUrl({
    client_id: '<CLIENT_ID>',
    redirect_uri: 'REDIRECT_URI',
    state: 'STATE',
    scope: ['user-read-playback-state', 'user-modify-playback-state']
  });
  window.location.href = authURL;
}

login();
  1. Grab the access token from the hash fragment of the URL (encoded as query string) when the user is redirected back to your redirect_uri.
function getAccessTokenFromURL() {
  const url = new URL(window.location);
  const error = url.searchParams.get('error');

  if (error) {
    throw new Error(`Authentication error: ${error}`);
  }

  // Strip the '#' from the start of the hash fragment
  const params = new URLSearchParams(window.location.hash.substring(1));

  const access_token = params.get('access_token');
  const token_type = params.get('token_type');
  const expires_in = params.get('expires_in');
  const state = params.get('state');

  // Be sure to compare state here as well!

async function authenticate() {
  try {
    const { body } = await clientCredentials(client);

    const { access_token, expires_in } = body;

    saveTokenSomewhere({ access_token, expires_in });
  } catch (error) {
    console.log(error.message);
  }
}

authenticate();
  1. Add authentication to your requests to the Spotify API

const addAuth = createBearerAuthMiddleware({
  token: () => getTokenSavedEarlier()
});

const client = createClient(fetcher, addAuth);

async () => {
  await play(client);
};

Creating a custom fetcher

A default Fetch-based fetcher can be imported from spotify-web-api-client/fetcher, but it's pretty simple to create your own if you prefer to use another HTTP library.

The role of a fetcher is to take the RequestConfig object, execute the request to Spotify and return a promise that resolves with a Response object.

The RequestConfig and Response objects have the following interfaces:

interface RequestConfig {
  url: string;
  method: HttpMethod;
  headers?: Record<string, any>;
  params?: Record<string, any>;
  body?: any;
  scheme?: AuthenticationScheme;
  signal?: AbortSignal;
}

interface Response<T = any> {
  body: T;
  status: number;
  headers: any;
  request: RequestConfig;
}

You can do anything you like in the fetcher, as long as you return a promise that resolves with a response matching the Response interface. You could handle adding authentication headers and bypass middleware altogether if you wanted.

So, a barebones custom fetcher could look something like:

async function fetcher(request: RequestConfig) {
  const { url, method, body, headers, params, scheme } = request;

  if (scheme === 'Bearer') {
    headers['Authorization'] = 'Bearer <MY_ACCESS_TOKEN>';
  }

  try {
    const response = await myHttpFunction(url, { body, headers, params });
    return {
      body: response.body,
      status: response.status,
      headers: response.headers,
      request
    };
  } catch (error) {
    // Do anything you like with the error object here before rethrowing...
    throw error;
  }
}

API Reference

createClient

Creates a client that can be used to execute requests to the Spotify API.

createClient(fetcher: Fetcher, middleware?: Middleware): Fetcher

  • fetcher Fetcher - Async function that takes a RequestConfig object, executes the request and returns a Response object.
  • middleware Middleware - Middleware function/s to be executed with each request.

Once created, the client can be passed as the first argument to any endpoint function.

🗒 Note: This library deliberately does not polyfill fetch. If you want to use the default fetcher in a Node env, for example, then you will need to polyfill this yourself.

Example 
import { createClient, Fetcher, RequestConfig } from 'spotify-web-api-client';
import { fetcher } from 'spotify-web-api-client/fetcher';
import {
  createAuthMiddleware,
  composeMiddleware
} from 'spotify-web-api-client/middleware';
import { getAlbum } from 'spotify-web-api-client/albums';

const addAuth = createAuthMiddleware({
  token: '<TOKEN>',
  client_id: '<CLIENT_ID>',
  redirect_uri: '<REDIRECT_URI>'
});

function addLogging(next: Fetcher) {
  return (request: RequestConfig) => {
    console.log(`Making request to ${request.url}`);
    return next(request);
  };
}

const client = createClient(fetcher, composeMiddleware(addAuth, addLogging));

getAlbum(client, { id: '0sNOF9WDwhWunNAHPD3Baj' }).then(({ body: album }) =>
  console.log(album.name)
);

composeMiddleware

Composes multiple middleware functions together to be passed as the second argument to createClient.

composeMiddleware(...fns: Middleware[]): Middleware

  • ...fns Middleware[] - Any number of middleware functions.

Middleware functions are composed right-to-left.

Example 
import { createClient, Fetcher, RequestConfig } from 'spotify-web-api-client';
import { fetcher } from 'spotify-web-api-client/fetcher';
import {
  createAuthMiddleware,
  composeMiddleware
} from 'spotify-web-api-client/middleware';

const addAuth = createAuthMiddleware({
  token: '<TOKEN>',
  client_id: '<CLIENT_ID>',
  redirect_uri: '<REDIRECT_URI>'
});

function addLogging(next: Fetcher) {
  return (request: RequestConfig) => {
    console.log(`Making request to ${request.url}`);
    return next(request);
  };
}

const middleware = composeMiddleware(addAuth, addLogging)

const client = createClient(fetcher, middleware;

createAuthMiddleware

Composes createBasicAuthMiddleware and createBearerAuthMiddleware together into a single middleware function.

createAuthMiddleware(config: AuthMiddlewareConfig): Middleware

  • config
    • token string | Function - Spotify access token or a function that returns an access token as a string (can be async).
    • client_id string - Spotify client ID.
    • client_secret string - Spotify client secret.
Example 
import { createClient } from 'spotify-web-api-client';
import { fetcher } from 'spotify-web-api-client/fetcher';
import { createAuthMiddleware } from 'spotify-web-api-client/middleware';

const addAuth = createAuthMiddleware({
  /**
   * This could also be an async or sync function that returns
   * a string:
   * token: () => fetchAccessTokenFromSomewhere(),
   */
  token: '<TOKEN>',
  client_id: '<CLIENT_ID>',
  redirect_uri: '<REDIRECT_URI>'
});

const client = createClient(fetcher, addAuth);

createBasicAuthMiddleware

Create a middleware function that will add a Basic authorization header to the correct requests.

createBasicAuthMiddleware(config: BasicAuthMiddlewareConfig): Middleware

  • config
    • client_id string - Spotify client ID.
    • client_secret string - Spotify client secret.
Example 
import { createClient } from 'spotify-web-api-client';
import { fetcher } from 'spotify-web-api-client/fetcher';
import { createBasicAuthMiddleware } from 'spotify-web-api-client/middleware';

const addBasicAuth = createBasicAuthMiddleware({
  client_id: '<CLIENT_ID>',
  redirect_uri: '<REDIRECT_URI>'
});

const client = createClient(fetcher, addBasicAuth);

createBearerAuthMiddleware

Create a middleware function that will add a Bearer authorization header to the correct requests.

createBasicAuthMiddleware(config: BearerAuthMiddlewareConfig): Middleware

  • config
    • token string | Function - Spotify access token or a function that returns an access token as a string (can be async).
Example 
import { createClient } from 'spotify-web-api-client';
import { fetcher } from 'spotify-web-api-client/fetcher';
import { createBearerAuthMiddleware } from 'spotify-web-api-client/middleware';

const addBearerAuth = createBearerAuthMiddleware({
  token: '<TOKEN>'
  /**
   * This could also be an async or sync function that returns
   * a string:
  token: () => fetchAccessTokenFromSomewhere()
  */
});

const client = createClient(fetcher, addBearerAuth);

paginate

Some Spotify API endpoints support pagination. paginate can be used with these endpoints to continuously fetch each new page of results until you've collected all items.

paginate<T>(fn: T, options?: PaginateOptions): (...args: Parameters<T>) => AsyncGenerator

  • fn Function - Spotify endpoint function.
  • options?
    • backoff? number - Duration in ms to wait between each request. Defaults to 0.
    • maxItems? number - The maximum number of items to fetch. Defaults to Infinity.
    • maxRequests? number - The maximum number of requests to be made. This will take precedence over maxItems if both values are supplied. Defaults to Infinity.

🗒 Notes on using paginate:

Unlike normal requests that return a Response object, only the response body for the given endpoint function will be returned on each iteration. If you pass a function for an endpoint that does not support pagination, the request will be executed as normal and the underlying generator function will just return the response body.

Spotify endpoints that support pagination allow you to pass an optional limit parameter to specify the number of items to return in the request. In paginate the value you pass here will be used for each request (Spotify's own default for the given endpoint will be applied if you don't provide a value). If you pass a limit that is greater than maxItems, then limit will be reassigned the lower value in order to avoid overfetching.

If you pass any other optional parameters to the endpoint function - for example, some take a market field - these will also be included in each subsequent page request.

Example 
import { createClient } from 'spotify-web-api-client';
import { fetcher } from 'spotify-web-api-client/fetcher';
import { createBearerAuthMiddleware } from 'spotify-web-api-client/middleware';
import { paginate } from 'spotify-web-api-client/pagination';
import { getSavedAlbums } from 'spotify-web-api-client/library';

const addBearerAuth = createBearerAuthMiddleware({
  token: '<TOKEN>'
});

const client = createClient(fetcher, addBearerAuth);

async function gatherSavedAlbumNames() {
  const pages = paginate(getSavedAlbums)(client);

  const albumNames: string[] = [];

  for await (const page of pages) {
    albumNames.push(...page.items.map(({ album }) => album.name));
  }

  return albumNames;
}

async function gatherSavedAlbumNamesMax3Requests() {
  const pages = paginate(getSavedAlbums, {
    // Stop pagination after the third request.
    maxRequests: 3
  })(client);

  const albumNames: string[] = [];

  for await (const page of pages) {
    albumNames.push(...page.items.map(({ album }) => album.name));
  }

  return albumNames;
}

gather

Gather all results from paginating requests into an array. This is a shorthand for the examples above using paginate.

gather<T, U>(fn: T, pick: U, options?: PaginateOptions): (...args: Parameters<T>) => Promise<ReturnType<U>>

  • fn Function - Spotify endpoint function.
  • pick Function - Function that takes a response body and should return the page elements to gather up. If you return an array, those array elements will be spread into the resulting array.
  • options?
    • backoff? number - Duration in ms to wait between each request. Defaults to 0.
    • maxItems? number - The maximum number of items to fetch. Defaults to Infinity.
    • maxRequests? number - The maximum number of requests to be made. This will take precedence over maxItems if both values are supplied. Defaults to Infinity.
Example 
import { createClient } from 'spotify-web-api-client';
import { fetcher } from 'spotify-web-api-client/fetcher';
import { createBearerAuthMiddleware } from 'spotify-web-api-client/middleware';
import { gather } from 'spotify-web-api-client/pagination';
import { getSavedAlbums } from 'spotify-web-api-client/library';

const addBearerAuth = createBearerAuthMiddleware({
  token: '<TOKEN>'
});

const client = createClient(fetcher, addBearerAuth);

async function gatherSavedAlbumNames(): Promise<string[]> {
  const albums = await gather(getSavedAlbums, ({ items }) =>
    items.map(({ album }) => album.name)
  )(client);
  return albums;
}
