Extensions | Spicetify (2024)

Extensions, in a nutshell, are JavaScript files that will be evaluated along with Spotify main JavaScript.

Installing

Extension files can be stored in:

  • Extensions folder in Home directory:
PlatformPath
Windows%appdata%\spicetify\Extensions\
Linux/MacOS~/.config/spicetify/Extensions
  • Extensions folder in Spicetify executable directory.

If there are 2 extensions with the same name, the extension within the Home directory will be prioritized.

Some Spotify API endpoints are exposed and can be found in the global object Spicetify. Check out global.d.ts for API documentation.

After placing the extension file into correct folder, run following command to install it:

spicetify config extensions <file name>
spicetify apply

Note: Using config command to add extension always append file name to existed extensions list. It does not replace the whole key's value.

Uninstalling

If you want to remove an extension from the current list of extensions you can always append a - after the file name:

spicetify config extensions <file name>-
spicetify apply

Manual Install

You can always manually edit the config file, add your desired extension filenames in extensions key, separated them by | character.
Example:

[AdditionalOptions]
...
extensions = autoSkipExplicit.js|queueAll.js|djMode.js|shuffle+.js|trashbin.js

Afterwards, you will need to run the following:

spicetify apply
