hi there,
So I only recently grabbed this as part of a project I'm working on that wants to include spotify support.
I was playing with it in the terminal, and so did:
appid='my app id' # obviously I pasted my app id
secret='my secret'
scopes='some scopes that I got from the website'
url='my url'
I carried out the documented method, that is to call util.prompt(username, scope, id, secret, url)
And it successfully ran in my browser.
I even got it up to where it redirects to:
https://mydomain.mytldr/spotify.php?code=a_long_as_hell_code
Pasting the url into the input of th eterminal however, said bad request.
Is there something I'm missing? Am I only supposed to paste in the code? the code= bit? or

It is very important to enter your app secret correctly. If you don't, my issue will occur. Sorry for the bother. Mortified.
