## Running Locally

```bash
git clone https://github.com/skidoodle/albert.lol
cd albert.lol
yarn install
yarn dev
```

Create a `.env` file similar to [`.env.example`](https://github.com/skidoodle/albert.lol/blob/master/.env.example).

### Prerequisites
1. Create an application in the [Spotify Developer Dashboard](https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard/)
    - Click on the `Edit settings` button
    - Set the `Redirect URIs` to a convenient location <sup>_(doesn't matter)_</sup>
    - Save the given `Client ID` along with the `Client Secret`
2. Retrieve the access code
    - Visit the following URL after replacing `$CLIENT_ID`, `$SCOPE`, and `$REDIRECT_URI` 
    ```url
    https://accounts.spotify.com/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=$CLIENT_ID&scope=$SCOPE&redirect_uri=$REDIRECT_URI 
    ```
    - You can choose scope(s) by visiting the [Spotify API docs](https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/general/guides/authorization/scopes/)
3. Note `code` from the URL you were redirected to
4. Acquire your refresh token
    - Run the following CURL command
    ```sh
    curl -X POST https://accounts.spotify.com/api/token -d "client_id=$CLIENT_ID&client_secret=$CLIENT_SECRET&grant_type=authorization_code&code=$CODE&redirect_uri=$REDIRECT_URI"
    ```
    - Either replace or export the variables in your shell (`$CILENT_ID`, `$CLIENT_SECRET`, `$CODE`, and `$REDIRECT_URI`)
5. Save `refresh_token` in your `.env` file as well as your `client_id` and `client_secret`.
