Text2Spotify

Text2Spotify is a Python script that generates a Spotify playlist based on a text file. Each line in the text file represents a track name, and the script searches for these tracks on Spotify and adds them to a playlist.

Prerequisites

To use Text2Spotify, you need to have the following:

• Python 3.x installed on your system.
• A Spotify developer account to obtain the necessary credentials.

Installation

1. Clone or download the Text2Spotify project from the GitHub repository.

2. Install the required dependencies by running this command:

pip install spotipy

3. Obtain Spotify API credentials:

• Create a Spotify developer account and create a new application.
• Copy the Client ID and Client Secret and update the corresponding fields in the config.py file.

4. Provide the necessary information in the config.py file:

• CLIENT_ID: Your Spotify API client ID.
• CLIENT_SECRET: Your Spotify API client secret.
• PLAYLIST_URL: (Optional) URL of an existing Spotify playlist to add the tracks to. Leave it blank to create a new playlist.
• TEXT_FILE: (Optional) Path to the text file containing the track names. Leave it blank to use the default file named "music.txt" in the project directory.

Usage

1. Open a terminal or command prompt and navigate to the project directory.

2. Run the main.py script:

python main.py

3. The script will authenticate with Spotify using your API credentials and create or retrieve the target playlist.
