Kaneli (cinnamon in Finnish) is a command line program that adds songs from [Jouluradio](https://www.jouluradio.fi/)'s playlist to a user chosen Spotify playlist.

## Setup

1. Install [golang](https://golang.org/)

1. Create new application in [Spotify developer dashboard](https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard/). Define `http://localhost:4321` as the callback URL.

1. Copy the app client id and secret from the Spotify developer UI. Define following env variables:

```bash

export SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID=xxx

export SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET=xxx

```

## Usage

1. In the Spotify desktop UI: create a new playlist (or use an existing playlist.) Copy the Spotify URI for the playlist (e.g. `spotify:playlist:5x5mdsVit4ngNyvglqkO8f`).

1. Run the app by giving the playlist id (without the `spotify:playlist:` part) as command line argument:

    ```bash

    go run . 5x5mdsVit4ngNyvglqkO8f christmas

    ```

    

1. The app will open browser for Spotify authentication. Log in and give app permission to modify your playlists.

1. Bunch of random Christmas songs are added to your chosen playlist:

    ```bash

    go run . 5x5mdsVit4ngNyvglqkO8f
