Recently we've been using a shared Spotify playlist in the office so each team member can contribute to the office soundtrack. Right now we're running Spotify on a Mac Mini in the office, connected to a bluetooth speaker. So far the setup is working well except when we need to quickly pause the music.
Those of us with SSH access to the Mini have been using Spotify Control to play or pause the music as needed (phone calls, client visits, etc.) but that requires that you have an open tunnel to the Mini; ain't nobody got time for that!
Buckii Spotify lets us control Spotify on the Mini through a web interface flexible enough to be installed on our phones (by saving the bookmark to the home screen).
Clone this repository into a directory that's being served by Apache on the Spotify machine, then download Spotify Control into the lib/ directory by running:
$ git submodule init && git submodule updateLaunch index.php and follow the setup steps.
Note: This whole thing works best when the target machine has a static IP address.
