About the project

The usual application on Python 3, using Pywebengine and Pyqt5 to open the web version of Yandex Music.

He created for himself, since there are no official versions of Yandex Music for MacOS and Linux, but the public API was never provided.

Often it is not very convenient in the working profile of the browser to open additional tabs with a personal account for listening to tracks from Yandex music. This application solves such a problem.

Preparation for the assembly

WARNING

It is advisable to perform all commands in the terminal (not in IDE!) In order to avoid dependencies!

Python3 is required in the developer system and tools (GCC, Xcode Commandline Tools, etc.)

The assembly and performance are tested:

• on MacOS Sonoma 14.1.1 ARM64 (Apple Silicon), Python 3.11.0, Homebrew 4.1.20, Cltools 14.3.1
• on Linux Mint 21.2 x86_64, Python 3.10.12, GCC 11.4.0

Project load

1. Download the project or carry out cloning (GIT should be installed):

   git clone https://github.com/vokash3/YandexMusicApp.git

2. Go to the directory with the project and install dependencies:

   python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Stay in the directory with the YandexMusicApp project.

Assembly for MacOS

Two options

1. Assembly via py2App

Feature: the application can be added to the programs

• Install PY2App:

  python3 -m pip install py2app

• (Additionally) If there is no Setup.py in the project directory, perform its generation:

  py2applet --make-setup YandexMusicApp

• Assembly App Packa:

  python3 setup.py py2app --dist-dir=YandexMusicAppBuild

The usual YandexMusicApp.app package in the YandexmusicAppbuild submores of this project, which can be moved to programs and launched from Launchpad.

2. Assembly via nuitka

• Understand the executable Bin file:

  python3 -m nuitka --enable-plugin=pyqt5 --macos-create-app-bundle --macos-app-icon=icon.icns --output-dir=YandexMusicAppBuild YandexMusicApp.py

The executable YandexmusicApp file in the YandexMusicAppbuild submarine will be created.

---

Assembly for Ubuntu and similar

One option

Assembly through nuitka

• Install development tools via APT (APT-GET):

  sudo apt install build-essential

  sudo apt install python3.10-dev

• Install an additional package via APT (APT-GET) (relevant on Ubuntu):

  sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5.qtwebengine

• Understand the executable Bin file:

  python3 -m nuitka --enable-plugin=pyqt5 --linux-icon=icon.png --output-dir=YandexMusicAppBuild YandexMusicApp.py

The executable YandexMusicApp.bin file in the YandexMusicAppbuild submarine will be created.

That's all

Additionally

Universal version (for Linux and Mac) via Pyinstaller

I do not advise this method. The program may not start. I leave this option for reference.

• Install Pyinstaller through PIP:

  python3 -m pip install pyinstaller

• Launch the assembly of the project:

  pyinstaller --onefile YandexMusicApp.py

The executable YandexMusicApp file in the Dist subdractor of this project will be created.

• • On MacOS, you can create an App package:

    pyinstaller --noconsole -i icon.icns YandexMusicApp.py

---

Launching through the Python interpreter

• Just start the interpreter through the Python:

  python3 YandexMusicApp.py
