## Installation
-in progress...
+1. Install [sp](https://gist.github.com/streetturtle/fa6258f3ff7b17747ee3) - CLI client for [Spotify for Linux](https://www.spotify.com/ca-en/download/linux/):
+
+ ```bash
+ $ sudo git clone https://gist.github.com/fa6258f3ff7b17747ee3.git /opt/
+ $ sudo ln -s /opt/sp /usr/local/bin/
+ ```
+
+ Check if it works by running `sp help`.
+
+1. Get an 'id' and 'secret' from [developer.spotify.com](https://beta.developer.spotify.com/documentation/general/guides/app-settings/) and paste it in the header of the `sp` (`SP_ID` and `SP_SECRET`) - this enables search feature.
+
+1. Clone this repo under **~/.config/awesome/**
+
+1. Require spotify-shell at the beginning of **rc.lua**:
+
+ ```lua
+ local spotify_shell = require("awesome-wm-widgets.spotify-shell.spotify-shell")
+ ```
+
+1. Add a shortcut which will show Spotify Shell widget:
+
+ ```lua
+ awful.key({ modkey, }, "d", function () spotify_shell.launch() end, {description = "spotify shell", group = "music"}),
+ ```
