The SmarrtInspect Redistributable Console Viewer (free) is required to view SmartInspect Log (.sil) formatted log files, as well capture packets via the TcpProtocol or PipeProtocol connections. The Redistributable Console Viewer can be downloaded from the Code-Partners Software Downloads Page. Note that the "Redistributable Console Viewer" is a free product, while the "SmartInspect Full Setup" is the Professional level viewer that adds a few more bells and whistles for a fee. Also note that a Console Viewer is NOT required to view plain text (non .sil) formatted log files.

Change Log

All notable changes to this project are listed here.

Change are listed in reverse chronological order (newest to oldest).

[ 1.0.136 ] - 2025/01/05

• Updated SpotifyClient.PlayerTransferPlayback method to check player state before trying to transfer playback. If nothing is playing, then issue a call to PlayTrackFavorites instead. This will avoid the Restriction violated error which results from a transfer playback to the player when nothing is currently playing.

[ 1.0.135 ] - 2025/01/05

• Updated SpotifyClient class to include properties for SpotifyConnectLoginId and SpotifyConnectUsername.

[ 1.0.134 ] - 2025/01/04

• Updated SpotifyClient methods PlayerActivateDevices and GetSpotifyConnectDevice to re-create the ZeroconfConnect connection instance if the device IP address or port changed after Zeroconf rediscovery on a Disconnect call sequence.

[ 1.0.133 ] - 2025/01/04

• Modified SpotifyDiscovery._OnServiceStateChange method to process Zeroconf Update and Remove notifications.

[ 1.0.132 ] - 2025/01/02

• Modified ZeroconfConnect.GetInformation method logic to automatically retry the connection (after 250ms, 2s max) to the Spotify Connect Zeroconf device service if a "connection refused" was returned while trying to get device information. This was originally set to 10 seconds, which is far too long to wait for a device to become available.
• Updated SpotifyClient methods PlayerActivateDevices and GetSpotifyConnectDevice to rediscover the Spotify Connect Zeroconf device after a Disconnect call is issued. It has been found that some device manufacturers (e.g. Denon) stop and restart the Zeroconf server on the device after a resetUsers (e.g. disconnect) call is made, which changes the IP Port number that the device listens on for incoming connections.
• Removed the deprecated function SpotifyConnect.PlayerResolveDeviceId (since 2024/08/15); use the GetSpotifyConnectDevice method instead.

[ 1.0.131 ] - 2025/01/01

• Modified ZeroconfConnect.GetInformation method logic to automatically retry the connection (after 250ms, 10s max) to the Spotify Connect Zeroconf device service if a "connection refused" was returned while trying to get device information. The previous logic used a simple delay prior to the call and did not retry the connection, which resulted in the "connection refused" exceptions while trying to awaken devices. Some Spotify Connect devices take a little bit longer to start accepting connections again after a change.
• Added lxml package requirement to setup.py.

[ 1.0.130 ] - 2024/12/27

• Added PlayerPlayState.IsEmpty property; returns True if Spotify playstate returned an empty response; otherwise, false. This is a helper property, and is not part of the Spotify Web API specification.

[ 1.0.129 ] - 2024/12/21

• Added SpotifyClient.GetCoverImageFile that gets the contents of an image url and transfers the contents to the local file system. This method should only be used to download images for playlists that contain public domain images.
• Added ImageObject.GetImageHighestResolutionWidth that returns the highest resolution order image width from a list of ImageObject items.

[ 1.0.128 ] - 2024/12/20

• Updated PlayerActions model to load the correct action values for TogglingRepeatTrack and TogglingShuffle. These were switched, which was causing shuffle and repeat actions to be misinterpreted.

[ 1.0.127 ] - 2024/12/19

• Updated SpotifyClient.PlayerMediaPlayTrackFavorites to default and validate limitTotal argument. It has been found that approximately 750 items can be retrieved and played successfully (anything more generates request size errors).

[ 1.0.126 ] - 2024/12/18

• Updated SpotifyClient.PlayerMediaPlayTrackFavorites to retrieve unsorted track favorites, so that the most recently added favorites are played instead of the first alphabetical favorites.

[ 1.0.125 ] - 2024/12/09

• Added PlaylistSimplified property setters for the the following properties: Description, Id, Name, Type, Uri.

[ 1.0.124 ] - 2024/12/07

• Updated various SpotifyClient methods to discard favorites that do not contain a valid URI value. Sometimes the Spotify Web API returns favorite items with no information! The following methods were updated: GetAlbumFavorites, GetEpisodeFavorites, GetShowFavorites, GetTrackFavorites.

[ 1.0.123 ] - 2024/12/06

• Updated various methods to validate boolean arguments - if value was not passed (e.g. None), then set to documented value (True or False).
• Fixed a bug in SpotifyClient.PlayerTransferPlayback method that was causing play not to resume if Play=True and forceActivateDevice=True. If forceActivateDevice=True, then we need to resume play manually if play=True was specified; this is due to the device losing its current status since it was being forcefully activated (e.g. disconnected and reconnected).

[ 1.0.122 ] - 2024/12/02

• Updated SpotifyClient methods to return an exception due to the functions being deprecated by the Spotify development team. More information can be found on the Spotify Developer Forum Blog post that was conveyed on November 27, 2024. The following methods will now raise a SpotifyApiError exception due to the Spotify development team changes: GetArtistRelatedArtists, GetTrackRecommendations, GetTrackAudioFeatures, GetFeaturedPlaylists, GetCategoryPlaylists, GetGenres. The following properties were also marked as deprecated for the same reason: TrackSimplified.PreviewUrl.
• Due to the above chnages made by Spotify, any Algorithmic and Spotify-owned editorial playlists are no longer accessible or have more limited functionality. This means that you can no longer obtain details via the SpotifyClient.GetPlaylist and SpotifyClient.GetPlaylistItems methods for Spotify-owned / generated content (e.g. "Made For You", etc). A 404 - Not Found error will be returned when trying to retrieve information for these playlist types.

[ 1.0.121 ] - 2024/11/20

• Updated AuthTokenGenerator.py sample code to correctly reference the token cache file.

[ 1.0.120 ] - 2024/11/18

• Updated SpotifyClient.ReorderPlaylistItems to validate required input parameters were supplied.
• Updated SpotifyClient.ReplacePlaylistItems to check for no uris argument; this can occur if you want to clear the playlist.
• Updated SpotifyClient.GetPlaylistCoverImage method to make the playlistId argument optional; if not supplied, the currently playing playlist id value is used instead.
• Added SpotifyClient.Version property.

[ 1.0.119 ] - 2024/11/15

• Updated TrackRecommendations model to return empty arrays (instead of None) if seeds or tracks items were not found.

[ 1.0.118 ] - 2024/11/07

• Updated SpotifyClient.GetArtistInfo method to handle the see more suffix in the BioHtml property.
• Updated SpotifyClient.GetArtistInfo method to correctly parse tour event dates.

[ 1.0.117 ] - 2024/11/07

• Updated SpotifyClient.GetArtistInfo method to force all links in the BioHtml property to open in a new browser window / tab (e.g. added target="_blank").

[ 1.0.116 ] - 2024/11/07

• Updated ArtistInfoTourEvent model to include the concert link.
• Fixed SpotifyClient.GetArtistInfo method to correctly parse Spotify artist info and tour events.

[ 1.0.115 ] - 2024/11/04

• Updated PlayerQueueInfo model to include the DateLastRefreshed property, which contains the date and time items were was last refreshed in unix epoch format (e.g. 1669123919.331225). A value of zero indicates the date was unknown. Note that this attribute does not exist in the Spotify Web API; it was added here for convenience.
• Updated Category model to include the Type property, which contains a simulated data type. This is a helper property - no value with this name is returned from the Spotify Web API.
• Updated Category model to add the uri and type values to data returned by the ToDictionary method.

[ 1.0.114 ] - 2024/11/03

• Added sortResult argument to the following SpotifyClient methods: GetArtistRelatedArtists, GetArtistTopTracks. If True (default), result items are sorted by name prior to returning to the caller; otherwise, results are left in the order that the Spotify Web API returned them.

[ 1.0.113 ] - 2024/10/30

• Updated PlayerQueueInfo model to remove repeated items when retrieving player queue information. For some reason, the Spotify Web API will return up to 10 duplicate items with the same information. For example: if there is only 1 item in the queue, then 10 duplicate items are returned by the Spotify Web API; if there are 5 items in the queue, then 5 duplicate items are returned by the Spotify Web API. We will check for this scenario, and only return non-duplicate items if so.
• Updated PageObject model to include the DateLastRefreshed property, which contains the date and time items were was last refreshed in unix epoch format (e.g. 1669123919.331225). A value of zero indicates the date was unknown. Note that this attribute does not exist in the Spotify Web API; it was added here for convenience.
• Added SpotifyClient.AddPlayerQueueItems method that will add one or more items to the end of the user's current playback queue.
• Marked SpotifyClient.AddPlayerQueueItem method as deprecated; use the new AddPlayerQueueItems method instead.

[ 1.0.112 ] - 2024/10/19

• Updated SpotifyClient.GetSpotifyConnectDevice method to issue a slight delay after disconnecting the device. This should prevent Getinformation exceptions for devices that require a little bit of extra time after a Disconnect (e.g. zeroconf resetUsers) request in order to be ready for a Connect (e.g. zeroconf addUser) request.

[ 1.0.111 ] - 2024/10/14

• Updated SpotifyClient.GetChapter method to make the chapterId argument optional; if not supplied, the currently playing chapter id value is used instead.

[ 1.0.110 ] - 2024/10/10

• Updated ImageObject.GetImageHighestResolution method to account for null width values.

[ 1.0.109 ] - 2024/10/10

• Correctly Updated various methods that return an ImageUrl property to return the highest resolution image from the Images collection instead of the first image. For some reason, the Spotify Web API sets the first Images collection image to the lowest resolution (e.g. 64x64); for all other Images, the highest resolution image is listed first (e.g. 640x640).

[ 1.0.108 ] - 2024/10/10

• Updated various methods that return an ImageUrl property to return the highest resolution image from the Images collection instead of the first image. For some reason, the Spotify Web API sets the first Images collection image to the lowest resolution (e.g. 64x64); for all other Images, the highest resolution image is listed first (e.g. 640x640).

[ 1.0.107 ] - 2024/10/09

• Updated SpotifyClient.RemoveShowFavorites method to account for Spotify Web API changes to remove show favorites.
• Updated SpotifyClient.SaveShowFavorites method to account for Spotify Web API changes to save show favorites.
• Updated SpotifyClient.CheckPlaylistFollowers method to account for Spotify Web API changes to userIds argument, which is now deprecated. A single item list containing current user's Spotify Username must now be used.

[ 1.0.106 ] - 2024/10/04

• Fixed various python SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\ ' warnings that were being generated when code was executed. Something changed with Home Assistant recently that turned these "used to be ignored" warnings into actual warnings that wind up in the HA System Log! This is due to invalid escaped characters in various string comments that are used for documentation purposes (e.g. """ this is a code comment """).

[ 1.0.105 ] - 2024/10/04

• Updated Spotify Connect device processing to only require the userid and password parameters when authenticating to devices that require user and password values. Some devices only require a loginid value (e.g. spotifyd, Spotify Connect AddOn, librespot, Sonos, etc). The user should not have to specify userid and password values if they are not required!
• Cleaned up some documentation, as well as some of the code examples.

[ 1.0.104 ] - 2024/10/03

• Updated SpotifyClient.PlayerMediaSeek method to change the progressMS check to <= 0 when invoking relative positioning.

[ 1.0.103 ] - 2024/10/03

• Updated SpotifyClient.PlayerMediaSeek method to add relative positioning capability. This allows you to seek ahead / behind by a specified relativePositionMS positioning amount. The positionMS argument must be zero to enable this functionality. Note that the relative position functionality is not defined by the Spotify Web API. The functionality was added to this API to support "skip" seeking.

[ 1.0.102 ] - 2024/09/29

• Updated SpotifyClient.GetShowFavorites method to only return podcast show items by default. Prior to this fix, it was returning both audiobook and podcast shows. The new excludeAudiobooks argument allows you to return both audiobook and podcast shows (default returned by Spotify Web API).

[ 1.0.101 ] - 2024/09/28

• Updated ZeroconfConnect.Connect method to load authorization credentials for the Spotify Connect addUser blob from a credentials.json file for devices that utilize librespot / spotifyd. Spotify no longer supports uername / password authentication via librespot (always returns "Bad Credentials" exceptions. This allows the librespot credentials.json file to be copied to the spotifywebapiPython storage folder, and used for calls to the librespot addUser zeroconf endpoint.
• Updated SpotifyClient.GetSpotifyConnectDevice and PlayerActivateDevices methods to bypass the call to Spotify Connect Zeroconf Disconnect for devices that utilize librespot / spotifyd. librespot does not implement the Spotify Connect Zeroconf resetUsers endpoint, so the request always fails with a 404.

[ 1.0.100 ] - 2024/09/26

• Updated SpotifyClient.GetSpotifyConnectDevice method to force a Spotify Connect Disconnect call to the device if activateDevice argument is True. The verifyUserContext argument is deprecated as well. This was necessary, as Spotify Connect device manufacturers do not use the Spotify Connect Zeroconf Information ActiveUser property consistently.
• Added PlayerTransferPlayback.forceActivateDevice argument that allows you to force activate the Spotify Connect device as part of the transfer of playback.

[ 1.0.99 ] - 2024/09/24

• Added PlayerPlayState.ItemType property that denotes the type of episode being played: podcast or audiobook. This property is only loaded when the SpotifyClient GetPlayerNowPlaying or GetPlayerPlaybackState method is called with additionalTypes='episode'.

[ 1.0.98 ] - 2024/09/24

• Added SpotifyClient.IsAudiobookEpisode method that returns true if the specified episode id is an audiobook chapter; otherwise, false. This allows you to programatically determine the difference between a podcast / show episode, and an audiobook episode.

[ 1.0.97 ] - 2024/09/20

• Updated ZeroconfGetInfoAlias to fix a bug related to Spotify Connect devices that define aliases (introduced with v1.0.93). This was causing TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for &: 'str' and 'tuple' exceptions if a device had aliases defined.

[ 1.0.96 ] - 2024/09/19

• Added defensive code in various parsers to account for the Spotify Web API returning an invalid / incomplete object. This was noticed with the GetAlbumFavorites method, but also applied to other models that inherited from PageObject.

[ 1.0.95 ] - 2024/09/12

• Added image_url attribute value to all models that support a ToDictionary() method (some that were previously missed in 1.0.94 release).

[ 1.0.94 ] - 2024/09/12

• Added image_url attribute value to all models that support a ToDictionary() method.
• Miscellaneous documentation updates.

[ 1.0.93 ] - 2024/09/10

• Updated SpotifyClient.GetAlbumFavorites method to correctly sort results based upon the sortResult argument setting; true to sort by name ascending, false to sort by AddedAt descending.
• Updated SpotifyClient.GetEpisodeFavorites method to correctly sort results based upon the sortResult argument setting; true to sort by name ascending, false to sort by AddedAt descending.
• Updated SpotifyClient.GetShowFavorites method to correctly sort results based upon the sortResult argument setting; true to sort by name ascending, false to sort by AddedAt descending.
• Updated SpotifyClient.GetTrackFavorites method to correctly sort results based upon the sortResult argument setting; true to sort by name ascending, false to sort by AddedAt descending.

[ 1.0.92 ] - 2024/08/23

• Updated SpotifyClient.FollowPlaylist method to make the playlistId argument optional; if not supplied, the currently playing playlist id value is used instead.
• Updated SpotifyClient.GetAlbum method to make the albumId argument optional; if not supplied, the currently playing album id value is used instead.
• Updated SpotifyClient.GetAlbumTracks method to make the albumId argument optional; if not supplied, the currently playing album id value is used instead.

• Updated SpotifyClient.UnfollowPlaylist method to make the playlistId argument optional; if not supplied, the currently playing playlist id value is used instead.

[ 1.0.91 ] - 2024/08/22

• Updated CheckTrackFavorites, RemoveTrackFavorites, and SaveTrackFavorites methods to ensure that nowplaying item was a track and not an episode item.

[ 1.0.90 ] - 2024/08/22

• Updated various methods to not log handled exception data as unhandled exceptions.

[ 1.0.89 ] - 2024/08/22

• Updated SpotifyClient.CheckAlbumFavorites method to make the ids argument optional; if not supplied, the currently playing album id value is used instead.
• Updated SpotifyClient.CheckArtistsFollowing method to make the ids argument optional; if not supplied, the currently playing artist id value is used instead.

• Updated SpotifyClient.CheckShowFavorites method to make the ids argument optional; if not supplied, the currently playing show id value is used instead.
• Updated SpotifyClient.CheckTrackFavorites method to make the ids argument optional; if not supplied, the currently playing track id value is used instead.

[ 1.0.88 ] - 2024/08/20

• Updated SpotifyClient.DefaultDeviceId property to setter to account for empty string values.

[ 1.0.87 ] - 2024/08/20

• Added SpotifyClient.DefaultDeviceId property to get / set the default device id (or name) to use for player transport methods (e.g. play, pause, skip, etc) that do not specify a device id and there is no active Spotify player detected (e.g. "Office", "5d4931f9d0684b625d702eaa24137b2c1d99539c", etc). This should avoid the No Active Device exceptions returned from the Spotify Web API when playback transport methods are called after long pauses of inactivity.

[ 1.0.86 ] - 2024/08/19

• Updated SpotifyClient, ZeroconfConnect, and AuthClient class constructors to include the tokenStorageFile argument that specifies the filename and extension of the authorization Token Cache file. This is used for Spotify Connect devices that utilize the authorization_code token type.

[ 1.0.85 ] - 2024/08/19

• Updated SpotifyClient.RemoveAudiobookFavorites method to make the ids argument optional; if not supplied, the currently playing audiobook id value is used instead.
• Updated SpotifyClient.RemoveEpisodeFavorites method to make the ids argument optional; if not supplied, the currently playing episode id value is used instead.
• Updated SpotifyClient.RemoveShowFavorites method to make the ids argument optional; if not supplied, the currently playing show id value is used instead.

• Updated SpotifyClient.SaveEpisodeFavorites method to make the ids argument optional; if not supplied, the currently playing episode id value is used instead.
• Updated SpotifyClient.SaveShowFavorites method to make the ids argument optional; if not supplied, the currently playing show id value is used instead.

[ 1.0.84 ] - 2024/08/18

• Updated SpotifyClient.PlayerTransferPlayback method to default the refreshDeviceList argument to True so that the Spotify Connect device list is refreshed by default before transferring playback.
• Updated ZeroconfConnect methods to use connection:close headers for requests to the Spotify Connect Zeroconf API endpoints.

[ 1.0.83 ] - 2024/08/15

• Updated SpotifyClient.GetSpotifyConnectDevice method to check if a Spotify Desktop Client Application OAuth2 token exists when a PlayerTransfer targets a Sonos device. If not found, then control will be transferred to the Sonos device using it's local queue; if found, then Spotify Connect will reconnect to the device and control will be transferred to the Sonos device using Spotify Connect.

[ 1.0.82 ] - 2024/08/15

• Updated SpotifyClient.GetSpotifyConnectDevice method to get real-time information for some portions of the device info for devices detected by zeroconf discovery (non-dynamic), even when using the cache. Prior to this fix, transfer of playback failed for dynamic devices (web player, mobile app player, etc).

[ 1.0.81 ] - 2024/08/15

• Updated SpotifyClient.GetSpotifyConnectDevice method to get real-time information for some portions of the device info, even when using the cache. Prior to this, stale information was being used that had been updated since the last cache update.

[ 1.0.80 ] - 2024/08/15

• Added SpotifyClient.GetSpotifyConnectDevice method that will get information about a specific Spotify Connect player device, and (optionally) activate the device if it requires it.
• Marked the SpotifyClient.PlayerResolveDeviceId method as deprecated, and it will be removed in a future release; use the GetSpotifyConnectDevice instead.
• Removed SpotifyClient.PlayerTransferPlayback method argument resolveDeviceId as it is no longer used.
• Added SpotifyClient.PlayerTransferPlayback method argument refreshDeviceList to refresh the Spotify Connect device list (True) or use the Spotify Connect device list cache (False) when resolving a Spotify Connect device value.

[ 1.0.79 ] - 2024/08/13

• Updated ZeroconfConnect._GetSpotifyConnectAuthorizationCodeToken method to raise an exception if the Spotify Client Application authorization access token could not be found. Prior logic was causing the process to wait for a user response to a token authorization request, which would never happen since the process was running on a server.

[ 1.0.78 ] - 2024/08/12

• Updated ZeroconfConnect class constructor to include the tokenStorageDir argument that specified the directory path that will contain the tokens.json cache file. This is used for Spotify Connect devices that utilize the authorization_code token type.

[ 1.0.77 ] - 2024/08/12

• Updated AuthClient.AuthorizeWithServer method to specify a redirect uri with host, port, and path values. Prior code was only allowing a redirect uri with host and port values.
• Added SpotifyClient.SetAuthTokenAuthorizationCode method argument redirectUriPath to allow a redirect_uri path value to be specified for OAuth authorization requests.
• Added SpotifyClient.SetAuthTokenAuthorizationCodePKCE method argument redirectUriPath to allow a redirect_uri path value to be specified for OAuth authorization requests.
• Updated ZeronconfConnect class to correctly process Spotify Connect requests for token type authorization_code devices.
• Updated SpotifyClient.PlayerMediaPlayTrackFavorites method to add the limitTotal argument that limits the number of tracks retrieved from favorites.
• Added sortResult argument to the following SpotifyClient methods: GetAlbumFavorites, GetAlbumNewReleases, GetArtistAlbums, GetArtistsFollowed, GetAudiobookFavorites, GetBrowseCategorys, GetCategoryPlaylists, GetEpisodeFavorites, GetFeaturedPlaylists, GetPlayerDevices, GetPlaylistFavorites, GetPlaylistsForUser, GetShowFavorites, GetSpotifyConnectDevices, GetTrackFavorites, GetUsersTopArtists, GetUsersTopTracks. If True (default), result items are sorted by name prior to returning to the caller; otherwise, results are left in the order that the Spotify Web API returned them.

[ 1.0.76 ] - 2024/07/18

• Updated ZeroconfConnect class to remove some test code that was accidentally left in place for tokentype authorization_code research.

[ 1.0.75 ] - 2024/07/17

• Updated PlayerPlayState.ShuffleState method to return a boolean True or False value to account for changes to underlying Spotify Web API.
• Updated PlayerPlayState.SmartShuffle method to return a boolean True or False value to account for changes to underlying Spotify Web API.

[ 1.0.74 ] - 2024/07/15

• Added SpotifyConnectDevices.GetDeviceById method to return a SpotifyConnectDevice instance if the collection contains the specified device id value; otherwise, None.
• Added SpotifyConnectDevices.GetDeviceByName method to return a SpotifyConnectDevice instance if the collection contains the specified device name value; otherwise, None.
• Updated ZeroconfConnect class to use a '2.7.1' version indicator if no version argument was specified on the class contructor.
• Updated ZeroconfConnect.Disconnect to check for an invalid JSON response. It has been found that some devices (Sonos, etc) do not return a proper JSON response for the resetUsers action. If a JSON response was not returned, then it will treat the http status code as the response code; if it's not a 200, then it will raise an exception.
• Updated SpotifyClient.PlayerResolveDeviceId method to not switch the active user context for Sonos devices. Sonos devices are restricted, and (currently) cannot be controlled by the Spotify Web-Services API player methods.

[ 1.0.73 ] - 2024/07/02

• Updated SpotifyClient.GetSpotifyConnectDevices to gracefully handle device unavailable scenarios. It will try to reach the device by its direct HostIpAddress first; if that fails, then it will try to reach the device by its Server alias; if that fails, then it will log a warning that the device could not be reached and press on.
• Updated ZeroconfConnect.Disconnect to check for an invalid JSON response. It has been found that some devices (Sonos, etc) do not return a proper JSON response for the resetUsers action. If a JSON response was not returned, then it will treat the http status code as the response code; if it's not a 200, then it will raise an exception.
• Updated BlobBuilder methods to add tracing of blob data contents.

[ 1.0.72 ] - 2024/06/28

• Updated ZeroconfConnect.Connect method to handle the authorization_code token type for Zeroconf API addUser requests.

[ 1.0.71 ] - 2024/06/27

• Updated ZeroconfConnect.Connect method to properly return the response data from the addUser request and process the results.

[ 1.0.70 ] - 2024/06/27

• Updated ZeroconfConnect.Connect method to properly wait for device to become fully availabile if need be.

[ 1.0.69 ] - 2024/06/26

• Added properties and arguments to support the Zeroconf API loginId argument for the addUser request.
• Updated ZeroconfConnect.Connect method to include the deviceName and deviceId keys for the addUser request for certain device manufacturer conditions.
• Updated ZeroconfConnect.Connect method to not issue a Disconnect to reset the user context if the public key value is "INVALID", as the logic did not work as expected.

[ 1.0.68 ] - 2024/06/26

• Updated ZeroconfConnect._CheckResponseForErrors method to not process the Spotify Zeroconf API response, as each method calling the check response method will process the returned status.

[ 1.0.67 ] - 2024/06/25

• Updated SpotifyClient.IsDeviceId class to recognize UUID-formatted device id's (e.g. "48b677ca-ef9b-516f-b702-93bf2e8c67ba").
• Updated ZeroconfConnect class to not default the version value to 1.0, in the event that newer devices may not support that version identifier.
• Updated ZeroconfConnect.Connect method to not pass the loginId parameter to the request.
• Updated ZeroconfConnect.Connect method to issue a Disconnect to reset the user context if the public key value is "INVALID".

[ 1.0.66 ] - 2024/06/25

• Updated ZeroconfResponse class to convert the status and spotifyError values to numeric from string. Some Spotify Connect devices return them as strings, while other return them as numerics.

[ 1.0.65 ] - 2024/06/25

• Updated ZeroconfConnect.Connect method to account for "ERROR-INVALID-PUBLICKEY" statuses returned for some devices. This will retry the connection request with the PublicKey value returned from the initial request.

[ 1.0.64 ] - 2024/06/24

• Updated SpotifyClient.GetSpotifyConnectDevices method to correctly set the currently active device.

[ 1.0.63 ] - 2024/06/24

• Updated ZeroconfConnect class to process the Spotify Zeroconf API status code from the JSON response instead of processing the HTTP request status code. It has been found that some Spotify Connect manufacturers return different HTTP status codes than other manufacturers; but the Spotify Connect status, statusString and spotifyError JSON properties seem to be consistent across the board.
• Updated SpotifyClient.GetSpotifyConnectDevices method to filter out duplicate Spotify Connect Device entries for devices that have been grouped together. For example, the "Bose-ST10-1" and "Bose-ST10-2" are grouped as a stereo pair; there will be two Zeroconf discovery result entries with different instance names, but their Zeroconf getInfo endpoint url will be the same. When this happens, it causes the values to show up as duplicates if we process both of them.

[ 1.0.62 ] - 2024/06/21

• Updated SpotifyDiscovery.DiscoverDevices method to properly free Zeroconf resources after service discovery, and prevent possible memory leaks and crashes due to running out of resources.

[ 1.0.61 ] - 2024/06/21

• Added ZeroconfGetInfo.IsInDeviceList property that returns the status of active device list verification process (Verification not Performed, Verified Active, Verified Inactive).

[ 1.0.60 ] - 2024/06/21

• Updated ZeroconfConnect class to process all responses as JSON responses. It was found that some Spotify Zeroconf API capable devices were not properly setting the Content-Type in the returned http response header.
• Updated SpotifyDiscovery class to process the individual Spotify Connect instance names that were discovered via Zeroconf. Prior logic was adding a device for every IPV4 address that was found for an instance, assuming that each instance only contained one IP address; some services contain multiple IP addressess for the same instance name (specifically, the SpotifyConnect add-on, which runs in a docker container).
• Updated SpotifyDiscovery class to rename the HostIpv4Address property (and method arguments) to HostIpAddress. The address specified in this argument can be an IP address (e.g. "192.168.1.81") or an alias (e.g. "bose.speaker.kitchen").
• Updated ZeroconfConnect class to rename the HostIpv4Address property (and method arguments) to HostIpAddress. The address specified in this argument can be an IP address (e.g. "192.168.1.81") or an alias (e.g. "bose.speaker.kitchen").
• Updated various SpotifyClient methods to utilize the default HostIpAddress (or Server value if default HostIpAddress was not discovered) when connecting to a Spotify Connect capable device. Methods updated were: PlayerActivateDevices, GetSpotifyConnectDevices, PlayerResolveDeviceId.

[ 1.0.59 ] - 2024/06/19

• Updated SpotifyClient methods that call PlayerResolveDeviceId with a new parameter that indicates if the device should be resolved (true) or not (False). This allows multiple methods that call PlayerResolveDeviceId to be called from the same method, and only resolve the device one time. This was sone to ensure that device resolution did not occur more than once, as it's such a time consuming operation. Methods updated were: PlayerMediaPlayContext, PlayerMediaPlayTrackFavorites, PlayerMediaPlayTracks, PlayerTransferPlayback.

[ 1.0.58 ] - 2024/06/19

• Updated SpotifyClient.PlayerResolveDeviceId method callers to log a warning message if the specified device value could not be resolved and just return a null value.

[ 1.0.57 ] - 2024/06/19

• Updated SpotifyClient.PlayerResolveDeviceId method callers to gracefully handle the SpotifyApiError error if the specified device value could not be resolved.

[ 1.0.56 ] - 2024/06/19

• Updated SpotifyClient.PlayerResolveDeviceId method to raise a SpotifyApiError error if the specified device value could not be resolved.

[ 1.0.55 ] - 2024/06/19

• Updated SpotifyConnectDevices model to include a DateLastRefreshed property that indicates when the device list was last refreshed.

[ 1.0.54 ] - 2024/06/19

• Updated SpotifyClient.GetSpotifyConnectDevices method to store results to the configuration cache.

[ 1.0.53 ] - 2024/06/18

• Updated ZeroconfConnect.Connect method to provide a small delay after processing the Spotify Zeroconf API command, which will give the device some time to process the change.
• Updated ZeroconfConnect.Disconnect method to provide a small delay after processing the Spotify Zeroconf API command, which will give the device some time to process the change.

[ 1.0.52 ] - 2024/06/18

• Updated SpotifyClient.GetSpotifyConnectDevices method to retrieve dynamic Spotify Connect devices as well as static devices. Dynamic devices are Spotify Connect devices that are not found in Zeroconf discovery process, but still exist in the player device list. These are usually Spotify Connect web or mobile players with temporary device id's.

[ 1.0.51 ] - 2024/06/18

• Added SpotifyClient.GetSpotifyConnectDevices method that gets information about all available Spotify Connect player devices (not just ones controlled by a user).

[ 1.0.50 ] - 2024/06/18

• Added SpotifyClient.ZeroconfClient property that contains a reference to the Zeroconf client instance used to discover Spotify Connect devices.
• Added SpotifyDiscovery.ZeroconfClient property that contains a reference to the Zeroconf client instance used to discover Spotify Connect devices.

[ 1.0.49 ] - 2024/06/18

• Added SpotifyClient.PlayerActivateDevices method that activates all Spotify Connect player devices, and (optionally) switches the active user context to the current user context. Note that you can still activate individual devices using the ZeroconfConnect.Connect method if you wish.
• Added SpotifyClient.PlayerResolveDeviceId method that resolves a Spotify Connect device identifier from a specified device id, name, alias id, or alias name. This will ensure that the device id can be found on the network, as well as connect to the device (if necessary) with the current user context.
• Updated various SpotifyClient methods to utilize the new SpotifyClient.PlayerResolveDeviceId method so that device id's are automatically activated if they are currently deactivated but available on the local network. Methods updated were: PlayerMediaPlayContext, PlayerMediaPlayTrackFavorites, PlayerMediaPlayTracks, PlayerTransferPlayback.
• Updated SpotifyClient class constructor so that Spotify Connect user context credentials (e.g. username and password) may be supplied for the resolution of device id / name. Note these credentials are only used for Spotify Connect device resolution, and are not used by method calls that are made to the underlying Spotify Web API.
• Updated SpotifyDiscovery class constructor so that a Zeroconf instance can be provided. This allows Home Assistant integrations to use the HA Zeroconf instance and avoid the log warnings of multiple Zeroconf instances in use.
• Removed SpotifyClient processing from the SpotifyDiscovery class, as the processing was moved into the SpotifyClient class itself.

[ 1.0.48 ] - 2024/06/10

• Forgot to re-build prior to deploying!

[ 1.0.47 ] - 2024/06/10

• Moved all Spotify Zeroconf API related classes to a new namespace called zeroconfapi. Classes moved were: ZeroconfResponse, ZeroconfGetInfo, ZeroconfGetInfoAlias, ZeroconfGetInfoDrmMediaFormat.
• Added ZeroconfConnect class that contains various methods that support interfacing with the Spotify Zeroconf API.
• Added ZeroconfConnect.Connect method that calls the addUser Spotify Zeroconf API endpoint to issue a call to SpConnectionLoginBlob. If successful, the associated device id is added to the Spotify Connect active device list for the specified user account.
• Added ZeroconfConnect.Disconnect method that calls the resetUsers Spotify Zeroconf API endpoint to issue a call to SpConnectionLogout; the currently logged in user (if any) will be logged out of Spotify Connect, and the device id removed from the active Spotify Connect device list.
• Added ZeroconfConnect.GetInformation method that calls the getInfo Spotify Zeroconf API endpoint to return information about the device.
• Removed SpotifyClient.ZeroconfAddUser method, and replaced it with method ZeroconfConnect.Connect.
• Removed SpotifyClient.ZeroconfResetUsers method, and replaced it with method ZeroconfConnect.Disconnect.
• Removed SpotifyClient.ZeroconfGetInformation method, and replaced it with method ZeroconfConnect.GetInformation.

[ 1.0.46 ] - 2024/06/07

• Updated the following requirements due to Home Assistant dependency issues: 'oauthlib>=3.2.2', 'platformdirs>=4.1.0', 'requests>=2.31.0', 'requests_oauthlib>=1.3.1', 'zeroconf>=0.132.2'.

[ 1.0.45 ] - 2024/06/07

• Updated zeroconf requirements to "zeroconf>=0.132.2". This was causing installation issues with other components that utilize zeroconf.

[ 1.0.44 ] - 2024/06/07

• Added SpotifyDiscovery.DiscoveredResults class property that will contain an array of ZeroconfDiscoveryResult items that contain discovery details for each service that was discovered.
• Added model ZeroconfDiscoveryResult class that contains detailed Zeroconf ServiceInfo details that were discovered via Zeroconf.
• Added model ZeroconfProperty class that contains Zeroconf ServiceInfo property details that were discovered via Zeroconf.

• Added model ZeroconfGetInfoDrmMediaFormat class that contains Zeroconf action=getInfo DRM Media format response variables.
• Added logic to handle 503 Server Error responses from the Spotify Web API.
• Added support for Spotify DJ playlist retrieval. As the Spotify Web API does not support retrieving the DJ playlist (spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1EYkqdzj48dyYq), it simply returns a manually built representation of the playlist. Note that playlist tracks cannot be retrieved either for the DJ playlist, as the Spotify Web API does not support it.

[ 1.0.43 ] - 2024/04/21

• Added device name support to the following player methods that take a deviceId argument for player functions. You can now specify either a device id or device name in the deviceId argument to target a specific Spotify Connect Player device. SpotifyClient methods updated were: AddPlayerQueueItem, PlayerMediaPause, PlayerMediaPlayContext, PlayerMediaPlayTrackFavorites, PlayerMediaPlayTracks, PlayerMediaResume, PlayerMediaSeek, PlayerMediaSkipNext, PlayerMediaSkipPrevious, PlayerSetRepeatMode, PlayerSetShuffleMode, PlayerSetVolume, PlayerTransferPlayback.
• Added SpotifyClient.PlayerConvertDeviceNameToId method that converts a Spotify Connect player device name to it's equivalent id value if the value is a device name. If the value is a device id, then the value is returned as-is.

[ 1.0.42 ] - 2024/04/05

• Added Device.IsMuted property to indicate if volume is zero (muted) or not (unmuted).
• Added PlayerPlayState.IsMuted property to indicate if player device volume is zero (muted) or not (unmuted).
• Updated SpotifyClient.PlayerMediaPlayTrackFavorites method to set the shuffle mode prior to starting play of the track list. Prior to this change, the first track would always play first regardless of the shuffle setting; now it is part of the shuffle.

[ 1.0.41 ] - 2024/04/02

• Added ArtistInfo model that contains artist bio information.
• Added ArtistInfoTourEvent model that contains artist on tour event information.
• Added SpotifyClient.GetArtistInfo method to retrieve artist bio information for a specified Artist id.

• Added SpotifyClient.RemovePlaylist method to remove a playlist by calling the UnfollowPlaylist method.

[ 1.0.40 ] - 2024/03/26

• Updated SpotifyClient.PlayerVerifyDeviceDefault method to check for a null Device.Id value when determining if an active device was set.
• Added delay argument to various SpotifyClient player command-related methods, which allows the Spotify Web API a little bit of time to process the change before returning from the method. Methods updated: PlayerMediaPause, PlayerMediaPlayContext, PlayerMediaPlayTracks, PlayerMediaResume, PlayerMediaSeek, PlayerMediaSkipNext, PlayerMediaSkipPrevious, PlayerSetRepeatMode, PlayerSetShuffleMode, PlayerSetVolume, PlayerTransferPlayback, PlayerVerifyDeviceDefault. Default delay is 250 milliseconds, but you can adjust accordingly (including removing the delay if you wish).

[ 1.0.39 ] - 2024/03/26

• Updated PlayerPlayState.__init__ model to properly parse the Actions property.

[ 1.0.38 ] - 2024/03/26

• Removed SpotifyClient.SearchPlaylists method argument spotifyOwnedOnly, as it can be replaced by other functionality (e.g. GetCategoryPlaylists).

[ 1.0.31 ] - 2024/02/27

• Updated all models that used a root.get('...',[]) syntax to use root.get('...',None) instead, as Spotify Web API will sometimes return a null instead of an [] (empty array) for a key item value. This was causing methods to fail with 'NoneType' object is not iterable errors.

[ 1.0.30 ] - 2024/02/23

• Updated SpotifyClient.SearchPlaylists method with argument spotifyOwnedOnly to filter found items by owner. This simulates the spotify "content generated for you" functionality provided by the Spotify AI engine.

[ 1.0.29 ] - 2024/02/23

• Added ContainsId method to the following classes: AlbumPageSimplified, AudiobookPageSimplified, ChapterPageSimplified, EpisodePageSimplified, PlaylistPageSimplified, ShowPageSimplified, and TrackPageSimplified.

• Renamed SpotifyClient.GetBrowseCategorys method to GetBrowseCategorysList.
• Renamed SpotifyClient.GetBrowseCategorysByPage method to GetBrowseCategorys.
• Added Category.Uri property to simulate a Spotify-like Uri value for a category. This is a helper property - no value with this name is returned from the Spotify Web API.
• Updated PageObject model with property setters for the CursorBefore, CursorAfter, Limit, Offset and Total properties. This allows a user to modify the values when performing custom paging operations.
• Updated all SpotifyClient methods that utilize a market argument to ensure that a market value was either supplied or implied (using an authorization access token with a user profile). The Spotify Web API was returning null results for some methods that did not supply a market value while using a public access token (e.g. no country code default).

[ 1.0.27 ] - 2024/02/20

• Updated SpotifyClient.GetPlayerRecentTracks method to retrieve the last 24 hours of play history if neither after or before arguments were specified.

This increases performance when accessing Spotify information that rarely changes.

[ 1.0.25 ] - 2024/02/10

• Updated urllib3 requirements to "urllib3>=1.21.1,<1.27", to ensure urllib3 version 2.0 is not used. Home Assistant requires urllib3 version less than 2. This was causing intermittent issues with calling requests resulting in **kwargs errors when used in Home Assistant!

[ 1.0.24 ] - 2024/02/10

• Updated SpotifyClient.MakeRequest method to pass ALL parameters in the various request methods. Prior to this fix, there were urllib3 request issues with **KWARGS while using the api in a Home Assistant integration.

[ 1.0.23 ] - 2024/02/09

• Updated SpotifyClient.MakeRequest method to use json library to create JSON request body, instead of the urllib3 request(...,json=...) method. The urllib3 request class seems to have issues processing json data.

[ 1.0.22 ] - 2024/02/09

• Added SpotifyClient.GetIdFromUri method to return the Id portion of a Uri value.
• Added SpotifyClient.GetTypeFromUri method to return the Type portion of a Uri value.
• Updated SpotifyClient.GetPlayerDevice method to return a selected device by id or name.

[ 1.0.21 ] - 2024/02/08

• Added SearchResponse.GetSpotifyOwnedPlaylists method that gets a list of all playlist items in the underlying search response that have an owner of spotify:user:spotify. These are playlists that are generated for you by the spotify ai engine.
• Added additionalTypes argument to SpotifyClient.GetPlayerPlaybackState method.
• Added additionalTypes argument to SpotifyClient.GetPlayerNowPlaying method.
• Updated SpotifyClient.GetPlayerDevices method to return the list of devices in sorted order by Name.

[ 1.0.20 ] - 2024/02/07

• Added PlayHistoryPage.GetTracks method that gets a list of all tracks contained in the underlying PlayHistory list. This is a convenience method so one does not have to loop through the PlayHistory array of Track objects to get the list of tracks.

[ 1.0.19 ] - 2024/02/07

• Updated TrackPageSaved model to parse a Track object instead of a TrackSimplified object. The Track object contains the extra Album, ExternalIds and Popularity properties.
• Updated TrackRecommendations model to parse a Track object instead of a TrackSimplified object. The Track object contains the extra Album, ExternalIds and Popularity properties.
• Added AlbumPageSaved.GetAlbums method that gets a list of all albums contained in the underlying Items list. This is a convenience method so one does not have to loop through the Items array of AlbumSaved objects to get the list of albums.
• Added TrackPageSaved.GetTracks method that gets a list of all tracks contained in the underlying Items list. This is a convenience method so one does not have to loop through the Items array of TrackSaved objects to get the list of tracks.
• Added EpisodePageSaved.GetEpisodes method that gets a list of all episodes contained in the underlying Items list. This is a convenience method so one does not have to loop through the Items array of EpisodeSaved objects to get the list of episodes.
• Added ShowPageSaved.GetShows method that gets a list of all shows contained in the underlying Items list. This is a convenience method so one does not have to loop through the Items array of ShowSaved objects to get the list of shows.
• Added an ImageUrl property to all models that have an Images collection. The new property returns the first image url in the Images list, if images are defined; otherwise, null. This is a convenience method so one does not have to loop through the Images array of ImageObject objects to get an image url.

[ 1.0.18 ] - 2024/02/05

• Updated SpotifyClient methods to set the request header authorization key directly, rather than assigning a new dictionary to the value.
• Updated SpotifyClient.MakeRequest method to apply token refresh changes to the request authorization header if present. Prior to this fix, the request was still referencing the expired token value.
