What To Listen
💿 what to listen?
Get the name of a random album you've listened with your Last.fm account!
This project is possible thanks to the amazing last.fm API and this great client to consume it from node. This is nothing more than a hobby project to explore some technologies and development methodologies while providing a useful service to people like me, who use this social network and sometimes need a little help to choose what to listen.
Setup
The service is composed of two components: the client, which is a svelte app and the server, which is an express app which acts like an API for the client, handles all communication with the last.fm API and serves the svelte app.
If you want to host it from your computer or a server, you just have to build the svelte app:
$ npm run client-build
and start the server:
$ npm run server-start
The server will be running at the port specified in the .env file (5000 by default).
Environment variables
| Variable | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
PORT |
number | 5000 | The port on which the app will be running |
API_KEY |
string | undefined | Last.fm API Key. You can get one here. |
