Automatically clear Spotify client's cache using Spicetify.

Spicetify Cache Cleaner

Spicetify extension to automatically clear Spotify cache. Executes on startup.

Only works on Spotify 1.1.92, Spicetify 2.12.0 and above.

Install

Copy cacheCleaner.js into your Spicetify extensions directory:

Platform	Path
Linux	~/.config/spicetify/Extensions or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/.config/spicetify/Extensions/
MacOS	~/.config/spicetify/Extensions or $SPICETIFY_CONFIG/Extensions
Windows	%appdata%/spicetify/Extensions/

After putting the extension file into the correct folder, run the following command to install the extension:

spicetify config extensions cacheCleaner.js
spicetify apply

Note: Using the config command to add the extension will always append the file name to the existing extensions list. It does not replace the whole key's value.

Or you can manually edit your config-xpui.ini file. Add your desired extension filenames in the extensions key, separated them by the | character. Example:

[AdditionalOptions]
...
extensions = autoSkipExplicit.js|shuffle+.js|trashbin.js|cacheCleaner.js

Then run:

spicetify apply
