Scrobbled

Rust bindings for the Last.fm API

Tutorial

Important Prerequisite

To make requests to Last.fm you need an API key and secret, which you can get here.
Once you have these, make sure to set them in scrobbled before making any API requests. To do so:

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    scrobbled::set_api_key("API KEY");
    scrobbled::set_api_secret("API SHARED SECRET");
}

Authentication

To make authenticated requests to Last.fm, a token is required, which needs users to accept your application as a connection. scrobbled does this for you in one simple function:

let token = scrobbled::auth::get_token().await.unwrap();
println!("{token}"); // abcde...

This will open a tab in the user's default browser requesting permission to access their Last.fm account. Once they accept, they will be redirected to a page showing the token, which will automatically be received by scrobbled and returned to the caller. Users can close the tab without needing any further action.
