Plugin Description
From a User Perspective:
The Spotify Albums plugin lets you interact with the Spotify API and leverage the Album functionality.
The plugin will get the album cover art and also a list of tracks given the album ID and render it within a widget.
Since this is the initial version, it leverages the open Spotify API and does not yet require any OAuth Key for now.
From a Wordpress Plugin Developer Perspective:
The Spotify Albums plugin was written alongside a series of step-by-step tutorials on Digital Opium.
Aside from your usual hello-world type tutorials, we have decided to use a rather popular software’s API, Spotify,
and demonstrate a few key areas in Wordpress Plugin Development:
-Options page in the Dashboard and saving/retrieving options
-Widget setup including the unique naming of client-side names/ids/functions to allow for multiple instances
-Leveraging the Wordpress pre-included version of jQuery and performing AJAX calls
-To be extended at the request of users.
-Use of PHP Namespaces
Through this approach, not only will they have a simple to use plugin but if they desire, they can also learn from it, extend and write their own.
