librespot-org/librespot v0.8.0 on GitHub

What's Changed

Added

[connect] Add method transfer to Spirc to automatically transfer the playback to ourselves
[core] Add method transfer to SpClient
[core] Add SpotifyUri type to represent more types of URI than SpotifyId can
[discovery] Add support for device aliases
[main] --local-file-dir / -l option added to binary to specify local file directories to pull from
[metadata] Local variant added to UniqueFields enum (breaking)
[playback] Local files can now be played with the following caveats:
- They must be sampled at 44,100 Hz
- They cannot be played from a Connect device using the dedicated 'Local Files' playlist; they must be added to another playlist first
[playback] local_file_directories field added to PlayerConfig struct (breaking)

Changed

[contrib] Switched contrib/Dockerfile to new Debian stable (trixie)
[core] get_radio_for_track function changed from accepting a SpotifyId to accepting a SpotifyUri (breaking)
[core] Changed return type of get_extended_metadata to return BatchedExtensionResponse (breaking)
[core] Changed parameter of get_<item>_metadata from SpotifyId to SpotifyUri (breaking)
[metadata] Changed arguments for Metadata trait from &SpotifyId to &SpotifyUri (breaking)
[playback] Changed type of SpotifyId fields in PlayerEvent members to SpotifyUri (breaking)
[playback] load function changed from accepting a SpotifyId to accepting a SpotifyUri (breaking)
[playback] preload function changed from accepting a SpotifyId to accepting a SpotifyUri (breaking)

Fixed

[connect] Fixed failed transferring with transfer data that had an empty context uri and no tracks
[connect] Use the provided index or the first as fallback value to always play a track on loading
[core] Fixed a problem where the metadata didn't include the audio file by switching to get_extended_metadata
[core] Fixed connection issues after system suspend on Linux

Removed

[core] Removed SpotifyItemType enum; the new SpotifyUri is an enum over all item types and so which variant it is
describes its item type (breaking)
[core] Removed NamedSpotifyId struct; it was made obsolete by SpotifyUri (breaking)
[core] The following methods have been removed from SpotifyId and moved to SpotifyUri (breaking):
- is_playable
- from_uri
- to_uri
