Spotify support

I’m aware pywal uses oomox as a dependency, and that has support for theming the Spotify app if it’s possible. Waiting on them for a fix as oomoxify-cli is currently broken, but I’m happy to patch this in myself once it’s there. I’m fairly sure it’s as simple as executing the oomoxify-cli command with the file pywal exports for the standard oomox command to use, provided Spotify is installed on the system.

Also, would we just check to see if Spotify is installed in some way, or just run oomoxify-cli while silencing the output and see what flag it returns?

You can easily add Spotify support by using -o with a custom script.

Example:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
oomoxify-cli -g ~/.cache/wal/colors-oomox

if pgrep spotify; then
    pkill spotify
    spotify
fi

Caveat: This requires sudo and will open a gksu window to authenticate. This is why this won’t be added to pywal directly. (Also, it’s really slow.)

I got it working by just adding the oomoxify-cli call after the standard oomox call in pywal’s code rather than a custom script, but it doesn’t relaunch Spotify.
