'python-gmusicapi' Debian package

This is the source for the Tizonia project's Debian package of the gmusicapi Python library. It is in no way specific to Tizonia and may also be used by other applications to gain access to the Google Play Music streaming services.

The goal is to allow installation of Simon Weber's gmusicapi library, including all its dependencies, using Debian's apt-get instead of 'pip'.

Building the Debian package

1. Download the 'gmusicapi' git repo and install all the necessary Debian development packages. To do this, just run the supplied bootstrap script with a valid 'gmusicapi' git tag. E.g.:

        $ ./bootstrap.sh 7.0.0
   

2. Now run the usual autotools sequence to configure, build, install and uninstall the 'python-gmusicapi' Debian package.

        $ ./configure
        $ make
        $ make install
        $ make uninstall
   

Pre-requisites

At the time of writing, 'gmusicapi' depends on two other Python libraries for which there are no corresponding Debian packages available in the Debian or Ubuntu repositories. These two Python libraries are:

• 'gpsoauth' : https://github.com/simon-weber/gpsoauth
• 'MechanicalSoup' : https://github.com/hickford/MechanicalSoup

These two libraries are similarly packaged by Tizonia. See:
