Demo for New Releases Spotify Web API endpoint (React)

This is a simple demo for the Spotify Web API New Releases endpoint based on JMPerez/spotify-new-releases-demo written using React.

Usage

If you want to run it locally, change the redirectUri variable in js/oauth-config.js to http://localhost:8000.

Then, start a server listening on port 8000. If you have python installed, you can run:

python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000

If you want to deploy the project on a site different from http://localhost:8000 you will need to register your own Application on the My Applications section of the Developer Site. Register the desired redirect uri and edit the file js/oauth-config.js replacing the clientId and redirectUri.

About React

This is my first attempt to use React. Should you know something in the code that can be improved, please let me know. The code uses JSXTransformer to transform the React markup into React functions, since it makes the code more readable and the goal is not to have a production-ready code (i.e. minified and combined). If you want to compile the code, install the react-tools and run jsx against the js folder.

All the React code is in js/react.js and it has components for the login/logout buttons, albums list and "load more" button.
