For tomorrow, Spotify.
Giving you a playlist for tomorrow's listening pleasure.
To run the website locally, you can use the Make command make run-website. This will use node to host the website on a local server for you. You don't have to host this way, but it makes life easier.
This requires you having node installed, and an NPM version of 5.2.0 or greater.
It should get the website running in your local browser (with hot reloads) on http://localhost:8080.
To start the database, run docker compose up from the root folder. That will get an instance of DynamoDB running locally at http://localhost:8000.
You can then run the backend by using the http profile in launchsettings.json.
Go to developer.spotify.com, and sign up (or login). You'll need to have an app, so create one if necessary.
The key things to ensure are set are these callback URLs in your appsettings.development.json:
http://localhost:8080/signedup
http://127.0.0.1:8080/signedup
and the Web API enabled.
Once you have done that, retrieve the 'client secret' and run this command in the src/Backend/Tomorrowify folder:
dotnet user-secrets set "ClientSecret" "12345-yoursecretid".
You should now be able to run the backend and interact with the Spotify API.
