The audio/spotifyd port

spotifyd-0.3.5pl2p0 – Spotify client running as UNIX daemon (cvsweb github mirror)

Description

Spotifyd streams music just like the official client, but is more lightweight
and supports more platforms. Spotifyd also supports the Spotify Connect
protocol, which makes it show up as a device that can be controlled from the
official clients.

Readme

With credentials in an XDG configuration file spotifyd is ready to run, e.g.
as daemon in ~/.xsession or on-demand via clients such as "spotify-qt":

  [spotifyd]
  username = "user@example.com"
  password = "secret"

Alternatively, the rc.d(8) script runs as dedicated user on the system D-Bus
where user keyring services (running on its session D-Bus) are unavailable.

Follow sndio(7) Authentication if both dedicated and your own user shall be
able to play audio at the same time, e.g. on a desktop system:

  # install -D -p -o _spotifyd -m 0600 ~/.sndio/cookie ${HOME_DIR}/.sndio/cookie
