trackId: string
Spotify track ID that is now playing
trackName: string
Human-readable name of the track
artistName: string
Name of the artist performing the track

Returns void

Example

// Log when a new track starts playing
logNowPlaying(
  'spotify:track:1234567890',
  'Bohemian Rhapsody',
  'Queen'
);

Source

export function logNowPlaying(
  trackId: string,
  trackName: string,
  artistName: string,
): void {
  // Avoid logging the same track multiple times in quick succession
  const lastLogged = getTrackLastLogged(trackId);
  const now = Date.now();

  // If we've logged this track in the last 3 seconds, don't log again
  if (now - lastLogged < 3000) {
    return;
  }

  // Record that we've logged this track
  setTrackLastLogged(trackId, now);

  // Log the track information
  store.saveLog(`Now playing: "${trackName}" by ${artistName}`, "INFO");
