Cannot install on alpine

[eternal arch]

The installer works, but when trying to execute spicetify I get the following, how could I address this issue?

/home/dxomg/.spicetify # ./spicetify 
ash: ./spicetify: not found
/home/dxomg/.spicetify # ls
CustomApps    Themes        globals.d.ts  spicetify
Extensions    css-map.json  jsHelper
/home/dxomg/.spicetify #

If it was installed correctly, it should have added itself to your $PATH variable, which would mean you can run it from anywhere as just "spicetify", without the "./"

[eternal arch]

Yes, but It didn't add himself, logs say the following, so I decided to manually execute it:

Manually add the directory to your $PATH through your shell profile
export SPICETIFY_INSTALL="/home/dxomg/.spicetify"
export PATH="$PATH:/home/dxomg/.spicetify"

If I export the path it just says:

~ $  spicetify
ash: spicetify: not found

and if you're wondering "Yes I did restart the shell" and checked if the env variables were available

A little Bump

Does Alpine support using the AUR? I don't really know how it works to install it with the script on Linux, I always use the Aur package

Some thoughts:
There is a binary called "spicetify" in the ~/.spicetify folder? Is it marked as executable?
Can you echo your $PATH and send, to double check it's there?

[eternal arch]

Alpine is not Archlinux based, nor Debian based

[eternal arch]

Yes it is marked as executable, here's my $PATH

~ $ echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/home/dxomg/.spicetify
~ $ 

[shut tendon]

That is bizarre. Seems to be there. Does it do anything if you drag it into a terminal? Like try and use the full path when you run it?

[eternal arch]

~/.spicetify $ pwd
/home/dxomg/.spicetify
~/.spicetify $ ls
CustomApps    Themes        globals.d.ts  spicetify
Extensions    css-map.json  jsHelper
~/.spicetify $ ./home/dxomg/.spicetify/spicetify 
ash: ./home/dxomg/.spicetify/spicetify: not found
~/.spicetify $ 

Also for a faster response please ping me back whenever you answer :P thanks!

Don't use the ./. Just do
/home/dxomg/.spicetify/spicetify
And what's "ash" is that a different shell?

[eternal arch]

~ $ /home/dxomg/.spicetify/spicetify
ash: /home/dxomg/.spicetify/spicetify: not found
~ $ ls /home/dxomg/.spicetify/
CustomApps    Themes        globals.d.ts  spicetify
Extensions    css-map.json  jsHelper
~ $ 

ash is like a replacement for bash, but that shouldn't be an issue as spicetify is just a binary

also I can install bash, I get the same result

dxomg:~$ /home/dxomg/.spicetify/spicetify
bash: /home/dxomg/.spicetify/spicetify: cannot execute: required file not found
dxomg:~$ ls /home/dxomg/.spicetify/
CustomApps    Themes        globals.d.ts  spicetify
Extensions    css-map.json  jsHelper
dxomg:~$```

I ended up compiling spicetify-cli the compiled binary works, but unfortunately now I find that I would have to compile the marketplace too for it to be able to work

[shut tendon]

That makes it sound like there is another file that the spicetify binary requires? I don't know anything about that.

[shut tendon]

Marketplace (and any custom app/extension) is just javascript and doesn't need to be compiled.

[eternal arch]

well when I tried to install it it just showed a black screen on spotify

so that was a wild guess

[shut tendon]

@eternal arch You can do the manual installation, and just run any commands with your compiled binary

What spotify + spicetify version? Might not be compatible

[eternal arch]

Using latest iirc, flatpak

let me check

[eternal arch]

I get this

note Full Spicetify functionality is not guaranteed above Spotify's v1.2.17

so apparently I have

1.2.22.982.g794acc0a

[shut tendon]

should work with spicetify xx.27, which is latest iirc

[eternal arch]

yea I have latest spicetify, I compiled it yesteday

[shut tendon]

Can you see what errors there are in the dev tools console?

spicetify enable-devtools

[eternal arch]

cant even run devtools, dang

[eternal arch]

I can apparently still interact with spotify since my play buttons work

[shut tendon]

Did you do the Flatpak steps?
https://spicetify.app/docs/advanced-usage/installation#spotify-installed-from-flatpak
And did you run and log into the Spotify app before trying to install Spicetify?
Is your spotify_path set properly in your spicetify config file?

[eternal arch]

Yes

[eternal arch]

Bump

[shut tendon]

Idk man
