A python project to export Spotify Playlists so that they can be imported to other locations or analyzed further.

This project started as an idea if I wanted to migrate my Spotify Playlists to my own home server or if I wanted to move to another subscription service and compare song offerings. Additional ideas include analyzing tracks for genre breakdowns, artist prevalence, etc.

Requirements: • Python • Spotify Account • Spotify Developer Account (free)

Note, the Spotify Developer Account will provide the API client secret and ID needed for this to analyze your playlists.

Three files are included in this repo.

1. playlistexport.py - Queries the Spotify API for your playlist information. Just update the API portion (lines 8 and 9) with your Spotify Developer information. Outputs the query as a CSV which can be analyzed further.
2. addgenres.py - Queries the artist information and appends the CSV for genres.
3. viewjson.py - For troubleshooting/verification. Reports the track count for Query.

Example Output:
playlistexport.py: playlist_name, track_name, artist_name, album_name, release_date, duration_s, popularity FAVrite JAMs, 1.3_5-da3m0nsneverstop.caf, Mac Quayle, Mr. Robot, Vol. 1 (Original Television Series Soundtrack), 6/3/2016, 130.404, 38 addgenres.py: playlist_name, track_name, artist_name, album_name, release_date, duration_s, popularity, genres FAVrite JAMs, 1.3_5-da3m0nsneverstop.caf, Mac Quayle, Mr. Robot, Vol. 1 (Original Television Series Soundtrack), 6/3/2016, 130.404, 38, soundtrack

Feel free to branch off and get this to import into other services.
