This is a bot that listens to the chat of a given Twitch stream for messages with a Spotify song link in them and then adds that song to a playlist and/or your queue.

twitch-spotify-request-bot's Issues

Q: Check if user is subscribed to channel?

Hey,

How hard would it be to implement the functionality that the bot only listens to subscribers in the chat?

Error added the song to the playlist ("not added to playlist")

This problem:

Put the link in .env SPOTIFY_PLAYLIST_ID the playlist and nothing

Bot response in twitch-chat

Would it be possible to make the bot respond in the chat using a defined twitch account?

For example my twitch is: abcd
And a second twitch account for the bot would be: abcd_bot (ofc the streamer would need to set this up on their own)

I understand that this adds another layer of complexity to the bot as it has to be authorized to twitch aswell as spotify! But it would be amazing to get some form of response for the viewers attempting to "request" songs to be played on stream 👍

Basically, when the bot detects the command (i use !spotify as prefix) it responds in chat with something like this:

Success: "Song XYZ was added to the playlist"
Fail (already in playlist): "Song XYZ is already in the playlist"
Fail (no link): "No spotify link detected"

I'm facing the issue that the people using the command are confused regarding if the song was actually added to the playlist or not, since the playlist isn't available to everyone 👍

Kind Regards,
Colorful

Error: Cannot find module '@/spotify'

Something is iffy with the alias, @, as it compilles through rsc but still gives these issues if used by yarn dev.

Heroku Deploy Erroring After Several Minutes

When the app is deployed out to Heroku, it works fine for a while, but then shuts down seemingly randomly after a few minutes. This occurs when the app is left idle AND when the app is in constant use. Issue first identified by ssbPleb on Twitter and I can recreate it on my own Heroku account with a fresh app created.

This is an example of the logs when the error occurs.

When Heroku restarts the app, there seems to be two instances which work in parallel for a short amount of time, resulting in messages being processed twice.

After a minute or so Heroku fully shuts down both of the instances.

Heroku on the free tier does shut down instances after 30 minutes of sitting idle, however this error occurs after only a few minutes and even occurs when the instance is not idle.

Procfile wrong declarations

I forgot to add worker type to the Procfile

❌

npm start

✔

worker npm start

This could be added at any time, it doesn't affect the deploy, it just add an option to prevent app sleeping using free dyno hours. This let the app runs 24/7 (depends on the remaining dyno hours) if the user turn on worker npm start instead of turning on web npm start (that only works for 1 hour and then go to sleep).

Currently, is only available web npm start (the other one doesn't work until Procfile be updated)

WebapiError: Insufficient client scope

Can request and play songs but cannot add to playlist.
