|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
Prebuilt binaries are available for every release.
|
|
|
|
1. Go to the [Releases](https://github.com/mathismqn/godeez/releases) page.
|
|
2. Download the appropriate binary for your operating system and architecture, named `godeez_<version>_<os>_<arch>`.
|
|
3. (Optional) Move the binary to a directory on your `$PATH` for easier access.
|
|
|
|
Example (Linux/macOS):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Make it executable and move it to /usr/local/bin for access from anywhere
|
|
chmod +x godeez_1.5.0_linux_amd64
|
|
mv godeez_1.5.0_linux_amd64 /usr/local/bin/godeez
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Each release also includes a `checksums.txt`, so you can verify your download:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sha256sum -c checksums.txt --ignore-missing
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### macOS
|
|
|
|
The macOS binaries are not signed with an Apple Developer certificate, so
|
|
Gatekeeper blocks them on first run. You only need to clear the quarantine flag
|
|
once:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /usr/local/bin/godeez
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Updating
|
|
|
|
**GoDeez** can update itself to the latest release:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Check for a new version
|
|
godeez update --check
|
|
|
|
# Download, verify, and install it
|
|
godeez update
|
|
|
|
# Reinstall even if already up to date
|
|
godeez update --force
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The new binary is verified against the release's published SHA256 checksum
|
|
before it replaces the current one. If **GoDeez** lives in a directory you do
|
|
not own (such as `/usr/local/bin` on some systems), run `sudo godeez update`.
|
|
|
|
To disable new-version notifications:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
export GODEEZ_NO_UPDATE_CHECK=1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To check which version you are running:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
godeez version
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
**GoDeez** authenticates to Deezer in one of two ways: with an **ARL cookie** copied from your browser, or with your **email and password**. The ARL cookie works out of the box and is the recommended option; email/password login requires two extra keys that **GoDeez** does not ship (see below).
|
|
|
|
### ARL cookie
|
|
|
|
Set your ARL cookie as an environment variable:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
export DEEZER_ARL="your_arl_cookie_here"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To make it persistent, add the line above to your shell profile (`~/.bashrc`, `~/.zshrc`, etc.).
|
|
|
|
#### How to retrieve your ARL cookie
|
|
|
|
1. Open your browser and log in to your [Deezer](https://www.deezer.com) account.
|
|
2. Open the **Developer Tools** (right-click on the page and select **Inspect**, or press <kbd>F12</kbd>).
|
|
3. Navigate to the **Application** tab (Chrome/Edge) or **Storage** tab (Firefox).
|
|
4. In the left panel, look for **Cookies** and select **https://www.deezer.com**.
|
|
5. Find the `arl` cookie and copy its value.
|
|
|
|
> **Note:** The ARL cookie may expire after some time. If you get authentication errors, retrieve a fresh cookie using the steps above.
|
|
|
|
### Email and password
|
|
|
|
Instead of copying a cookie, you can log in once with your Deezer account:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
godeez login
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You will be prompted for your email and password. On success, **GoDeez** stores your credentials in your system keyring under the service name `godeez`. From then on, **GoDeez** authenticates on its own and renews the session when it expires.
|
|
|
|
To remove the stored credentials:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
godeez logout
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Gateway keys
|
|
|
|
Email/password login goes through Deezer's mobile gateway, which requires two keys:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
export DEEZER_MOBILE_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
|
|
export DEEZER_MOBILE_GW_KEY="your_gateway_key" # exactly 16 characters
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**GoDeez** does not bundle these keys, so you have to supply your own. For background on what they are and where they live in Deezer's clients, see [this write-up](https://gist.github.com/svbnet/b79b705a4c19d74896670c1ac7ad627e). If either variable is missing, `godeez login` exits with an error.
|
|
|
|
> **Note:** `DEEZER_ARL` takes precedence over stored credentials. If it is set, **GoDeez** always uses the cookie and never falls back to your login, so unset it (and remove it from your shell profile) before running `godeez login`.
|
|
|
|
> **Note:** The keyring entry holds your password alongside the ARL because the password is reused to renew expired sessions. On Linux, the keyring requires a running secret service; without one, `godeez login` fails with `system keyring is unavailable`.
|
|
|
|
### Output directory
|
|
|
|
Downloaded files are saved to `~/Music/GoDeez`. The download database (`.tracks.db`) is stored in the same directory as your music.
|
|
|
|
> **Upgrading from v1.3.0?** The `~/.godeez` directory and `config.toml` are no longer used. Set the `DEEZER_ARL` environment variable instead. Your existing database will be migrated automatically on first run.
|
|
|
|
