This is the implementation of the feature request #35 (I opened few hours earlier).
Adding commands to the plugin is useful because the user can control their playback without touching the mouse, they can use the command palette or assign hotkeys (keyboard shortcuts) to the commands.
Here is a breakdown of the changes:

  • I defined this.addCommand({}) for three different commands (play next track, play previous track, and toggle play/pause)
  • to play next track and previous track, I just used this.next() and this.previous() respectively
  • to play/pause current track, I added a variable to store the track state (whether it is playing or paused) and then make the command toggle the state

I tested the changes and they all work fine

Instead of introducing a new variable, you should be able to use:

if(this.localPlayerStateObservable.getValue().playerState === PLAYER_STATE.PLAYING)

in the previous commit, I was introducing a new global variable to know the state of the current track (whether it is playing or paused) but it seems like there is another way to do it without adding a new variable

hello @andrewmcgivery , I didn't know there was a simple way to know if the track is playing or not and that's why I introduced a new variable.
Anyway, I fixed the code by using if(this.localPlayerStateObservable.getValue().playerState === PLAYER_STATE.PLAYING) as you mentioned, I tested it and it works all fine. 👍👍
