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 using a gulp setup, so getting started is relatively easy. You'll have to follow these few steps and you should be up and running:

1. Clone Repository
2. Install Dependencies
3. Optionally install yarn if you don't have it yet npm install -g yarn
4. cd into the directory and run yarn (or npm install if you don't want to use yarn)
5. Build Changes
6. To build your changes, run npm run build and it should process everything.
7. To watch all files for changes (easier), run npm run watch
8. In Chrome, go to chrome://extensions and toggle the Developer Mode option (top right) to "On"
9. Click Load Unpacked Extension and load up your main Play Midnight folder (the one containing manifest.json)
10. Make changes at your leisure!

Note: If you're on Windows and are having any issues with node-sass you may need to install python (I've been using v2.7.12) and alternatively MSBUILD which comes with Visual Studio Express.

About

The Chrome Extension for Play Midnight uses CSS generated via SASS for the different color options. These files are all self-contained in the /sass folder and should be commented somewhat to help you understand where each of the settings are.
