gmusicapi: an unofficial API for Google Play Music
==================================================

gmusicapi allows control of
`Google Music `__ with Python.

.. code-block:: python

from gmusicapi import Mobileclient

api = Mobileclient()
# after running api.perform_oauth() once:
api.oauth_login('')
# => True

library = api.get_all_songs()
sweet_track_ids = [track['id'] for track in library
if track['artist'] == 'The Cat Empire']

playlist_id = api.create_playlist('Rad muzak')
api.add_songs_to_playlist(playlist_id, sweet_track_ids)

**gmusicapi is not supported nor endorsed by Google.**

That said, it's actively maintained, and powers a bunch of cool projects:

- alternate clients, including
`one designed for the visually impaired `__,
`a web-based jukebox which ships with its own server `__,
`command line `__
`clients `__,
`a FUSE filesystem `__,
and `an Alexa skill `__
- library management tools for
`syncing tracks `__,
`syncing playlists `__,
and `migrating to a different account `__
- proxies for media players, such as
`gmusicproxy `__ and
`gmusicprocurator `__,
as well as plugins for
`Mopidy `__,
`Squeezebox `__ and
`Tizonia `__.
- enhancements like `autoplaylists / smart playlists `__

Getting started
---------------
Start with `the usage docs `__, which will guide you through installation and the available apis.

Once you're up and running, you can explore the rest of the docs at http://unofficial-google-music-api.readthedocs.io.

If the documentation doesn't answer your questions, or you just want to get
in touch, either `drop by #gmusicapi on Freenode
`__ or shoot me an email.
