# Spotify Playlist To JSON
Quickly and easily get any Spotify playlist metadata in JSON returned via HTTP API . No Spotify API key required.
## How Does It Work?
This app will load a full Chrome browser with no GUI (headless) into memory and load the playlist web page into it. The
app will scroll to the very bottom allowing all the lazily loaded AJAX items to be downloaded. At this point go through
all the HTML and pull out the necessary metadata. Open all song requests to get album/song cover arts.
Returns a friendly JSON response for you or your app to consume.
## Getting Started
### Prerequisites
Make sure you have these installed:
* [Docker](https://www.docker.com)
* [Docker-Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose)
### Download and run web service
```
git clone git@github.com:dantheman213/spotify-playlist-to-json.git
cd spotify-playlist-to-json/
docker-compose up --build -d
```
### Find Spotify Playlists you want to ingest
Look for Spotify playlists that you are interested in and get the Spotify Playlist ID. This can be done in many ways.
You can get an ID by right clicking a playlist in Spotify, select the "share via URL menu" option, paste the URL
into a text editor, and then extract the ID from the URL to give to the application. This can also be automated
programmatically.
Here is an example:
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3NcxM1LJJdua8AcRxtijNY
### Send queries to web service via HTTP API
Here is an example:
http://localhost:3000/playlist/query/3NcxM1LJJdua8AcRxtijNY
### Get status and results
Here is an example:
http://localhost:3000/playlist/result/3NcxM1LJJdua8AcRxtijNY
