Extension summary

An extension that allows you to take text off a web page and play that text in Spotify as a song or Album. The way it works is to add a "Spotify Select" option to you right click menu. After highlighting/selecting text on a page you can right click and choose to a number of options from the "Spotify Select" right click menu:

  1. Play Highlighted Song - Takes the highlighted text, assumes it's a song, searches for that song on Spotify and then plays that song in your Spotify App.
  2. Play Highlighted Album - Takes the highlighted text, assumes it's a album, searches for that album on Spotify and then plays the whole album in your Spotify App.
  3. Play Most Popular Song on Highlighted Album - Takes the highlighted text, assumes it's an album, finds all the tracks on Spotify, selects the most popular one (as defined by Spotify) and plays it in your Spotify App.
  4. Send Highlighted List of Songs to Spotify Playlist - Takes a the highlighted text, assumes it's a list of songs, tries to find each of the songs in the list in Spotify and adds it to a playlist called "Spotify Select". If this playlist doesn't exist, it is created. Nothing is automatically played.

When you first highlight an item and try to use "Spotify Select" you will be asked to login to Spotify.

User reviews

Great extension! Could you add an option to create a playlist of TRACK 1 from each album in a list of albums as opposed to the most popular track from each album? And possibly display a notification if something isn't found? Please! :D
