Open Spotify link in client
===========================
This is a small simple extension that tries to open any
open.spotify.com or play.spotify.com url in the Spotify desktop client
and then close the newly opened browser window.
The way the extension works is:
1. If the URL visited is open.spotify.com or play.spotify.com then
2. If the URL contains `/embed/` then don't do anything
3. Remove the FQDN part and the first slash and
4. Replace those with spotify: and
5. Replace the remaining slashes (/) with colons (:)
6. Redirect to that URL
7. Close the tab that was opening the URL if it was a newly opened tab
Available in the [Google Chrome web store][store-url]
# Changes
## 1.3
* Don't touch embedded links, so that websites that embed a playlist
can do so without having Spotify trying to open the link automatically.
Thanks [@shape55] for reporting the issue.

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
