# spotify-m3u-import
A small python script to create a Spotify playlist from a m3u playlist file.
It will:
- Read each entry in the playlist file
- Read the IDv3 tags from each MP3 file
- If there are no IDv3 tags it will attempt guess the artist and title from the file name
- Use this data to find a track on Spotify
- Create a Spotify playlist using the results
## Installation and requirements
Install python modules:
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
Take 5 mins to register an app to get access to the Spotify API:
https://developer.spotify.com/my-applications/#!/
The Redirect URI doesn't need to be valid, it can be a non-existant domain.
Export Spotify related environment variables from your new app:
```
export SPOTIPY_CLIENT_ID='your-spotify-client-id'
export SPOTIPY_CLIENT_SECRET='your-spotify-client-secret'
export SPOTIPY_REDIRECT_URI='your-app-redirect-url'
```
