Displays the current song playing with Spotify in your tmux status bar. When playback is paused, a pause icon is displayed next to the artist.

Installation

Dependencies:

Edit your .tmux.conf and append the plugin to your TPM list.

set -g @plugin 'feqzz/tmux-spotify-info'

Remember to hit <prefix> + I to install the plugin.

Clone the repo:

git clone https://github.com/feqzz/tmux-spotify-info ~/.tmux/

Edit your .tmux.conf and add this line at the bottom.

run-shell ~/.tmux/tmux-spotify-info/tmux-spotify-info.tmux

Last step is to reload the tmux config file.

tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf

Edit your .tmux.conf file and add #{spotify_info} to your status-right. Simple example:

set -g status-right "#{spotify_info}"

As the length of some song titles can be very long, it can be useful to add this line to your .tmux.conf to avoid overflow.

set -g status-right-length 200
