The goal of spotifyDash is to interact with the Spotify API to obtain data and then visualize it. Only few data selections are avaiable here related to what goes into the dashboard.
You can install the development version of spotifyDash with:
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("Shaunson26/spotifyDash")library(spotifyDash)You need an API key and secret in order to obtain data from the Spotify
API. Follow their instructions for setup. Also have a look at the
spotifyr package github page. Add
these to your environmental variables SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID and
SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET. I’ve put mine in my user .renviron file.
You’ll next need to get an OAuth token in order get data from users. This will result in a .httr-oauth file stored in the working directory, and which will be used automatically with later functions.
