Spotify Playlist Downloader

This Python program allows you to download tracks from a Spotify playlist by searching for their lyrics on YouTube and converting the videos to MP3 format.

Prerequisites

Before running the program, ensure you have the following:

• Python

• ffmpeg (Make sure it's in your system's PATH)

• Install the required Python libraries:

  pip install pytube requests python-dotenv

Setup

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/your-username/spotify-playlist-downloader.git

2. Obtain Spotify API credentials:

   • Create a Spotify Developer account and create a new app.
   • Set the app's redirect URI to http://localhost:8888/callback.
   • Note the Client ID and Client Secret.

3. Create a .env file in the project directory and add your Spotify API credentials:

   SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID=your_client_id
   SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET=your_client_secret

Usage

Run the program using the following command:

python spotify_downloader.py --url <SPOTIFY_PLAYLIST_URL>

Replace <SPOTIFY_PLAYLIST_URL> with the URL of the Spotify playlist you want to download.

Notes

• The program uses the YouTube API through the pytube library to search for videos based on track names and artists.
• The downloaded videos are saved in the specified playlist directory.
• The videos are then converted to MP3 format using ffmpeg.
• The program checks for duplicates, so previously downloaded tracks are skipped.
• Ensure that the ffmpeg executable is in your system's PATH.
