Play Midnight - Chrome Extension

  |  

A Nighttime Theme for Google Play Music

Play Midnight is a different take on the standard theme that is used on Google Play Music. As much as I love the original look of Play, the brightness can hurt the eyes after a while. After noticing there wasn't a dark alternative Play Midnight came to be.

Developing

Play Midnight is currently running using Node.js/Parcel bundler. You'll have to follow these few steps and you should be up and running.

1. Clone Repository
2. Optionally install yarn if you don't have it yet.
   • brew install yarn if you have homebrew, or npm install -g yarn
3. cd into the directory and run yarn (or npm install)

Core Updates

1. To build work on core changes, run yarn start (or npm run start) and it should process everything.
2. In your browser, if you visit localhost:1234 you'll have a little sandbox you can use for testing core related features
3. This script will recompile automatically so you can just refresh on save.

Play Music Updates

1. To build changes for Play Music, you'll need to run yarn dev after you're ready to test it.
2. In Chrome, go to chrome://extensions and toggle the Developer Mode` option (top right) to "On"
3. Click Load Unpacked Extension and load up your main Play Midnight folder (the one containing manifest.json)
4. Make changes at your leisure! Note: You'll have to click refresh (or Ctrl/Cmd + R) to reload the extension on the chrome:extensions page if you rebuild.
