# Ferrispot
[](https://crates.io/crates/ferrispot) [](https://docs.rs/ferrispot/latest)
A wrapper for the Spotify Web API that (hopefully) doesn't suck (too much) (I think).
A lot of the functionality is largely opinionated for my own use but I'm trying to make the library ergonomic and efficient to use. So far only the endpoints I care about are implemented, but if you need some endpoints implemented, feel free to open an issue.
## Features
- Type-safe clients and model.
- Asynchronous and synchronous (blocking) clients.
- Every OAuth authorization flow Spotify supports is implemented.
- Supports multiple simultaneous user clients.
- Automatically refreshes access tokens when they expire, where applicable.
- Reacts to API rate limits using either Tokio's or async-std's sleep functions at your discretion when using an asynchronous client. Synchronous clients block the running thread.
## Crate feature flags
- `async` (default): enable the asynchronous API.
- `sync`: enable the synchronous API.
- In case neither API is enabled (`default-features = false`), the crate only includes the object model structure with minimal dependencies on `serde` and `thiserror`.
- `tokio_sleep` (default): react to API rate limits using Tokio's sleep function.
- `async_std_sleep`: react to API rate limits using async-std's sleep function.
- In case both `tokio_sleep` and `async_std_sleep` are enabled, Tokio's sleep function will be used.
- In case neither are enabled, the library will return a rate limit error when it occurs.
- These features are meaningless unless the `async` feature is also enabled.
- `native-tls` (default): use native system TLS library for secure connections.
- `rustls-tls`: use `rustls` for secure connections.
