Rstidal

Unofficial Rust API wrapper for TIDAL music streaming service. Inspired by rspotify

Configuration

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
rstidal = "0.1.2"

By default, Rstidal uses asynchronous programming with asycn and await.

Getting Started

Authorization

Since all methods required user authentication, you are required to create a session using a Tidal username and password. In order to authenticate a user your application needs an Application Token.

How to get an Application Token

Using a debug proxy (Charles or Fiddler) open your Tidal Desktop application, look for requests to api.tidal.com and copy the value it uses in the header X-Tidal-Token.

Examples

[dependencies]
rstidal = { version = "0.1.0" }
tokio = { version = "0.2", feeatures = ["full"] }
use rstidal::client::Tidal;
use rstidal::auth::TidalCredentials;
use dotenv::dotenv;
use std::env;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
  {
    dotenv().ok();
  }

  // Set the token aquired by inspecting your Tidal Desktop application.
  let token = env::var("RSTIDAL_APP_TOKEN").unwrap();
  let credentials = TidalCredentials::new(&token);

  // Create a session using your user credentials.
  let username = env::var("RSTIDAL_USERNAME").unwrap();
  let password = env::var("RSTIDAL_PASSWORD").unwrap();
  let credentials = credentials.create_session(&username, &password).await;

  // Use the credentials to start the client
  let client = Tidal::new(credentials);
  let artist = client.artists.get("37312").await;
  println!("{:?}", artist.unwrap());
}
