Spotify Playlist Downloader

This Python script downloads songs from a Spotify playlist by searching and downloading them from YouTube using yt-dlp. It utilizes the Spotify API to retrieve song details and yt-dlp to fetch and convert audio files from YouTube.

Features

• Downloads all songs from a specified Spotify playlist
• Saves songs as high-quality MP3s (192 kbps)
• Organizes downloaded songs in a custom output folder
• No Spotify Premium Required!

Requirements

• Python 3.x
• Spotify API credentials
• yt-dlp and spotipy python libraries

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/SagnikGos/Spotify-Playlist-Downloader.git
cd Spotify-Playlist-Downloader

2. Install Dependencies:

pip install yt-dlp spotipy

3. Set Up Spotify API:
   • Go to Spotify Developer Dashboard and create a new application.
   • Copy the Client ID and Client Secret.
4. Configure Output Folder:
   • By default, the script saves downloaded songs to ./downloads. You can change this in the script or through environment variables.

Usage

1. Edit Configuration
   • Make a .env file and set your Spotify Credentials, Playlist ID:

   SPOTIPY_CLIENT_ID = 'YOUR_SPOTIPY_CLIENT_ID'
   SPOTIPY_CLIENT_SECRET = 'YOUR_SPOTIPY_CLIENT_SECRET'
   SPOTIPY_PLAYLIST_ID = 'YOUR_SPOTIFY_PLAYLIST_ID'

   • Replace YOUR_SPOTIPY_CLIENT_ID, YOUR_SPOTIPY_CLIENT_SECRET, and YOUR_SPOTIFY_PLAYLIST_ID with your Spotify API credentials and playlist URL or ID.
   • Open spotify-downloader.py and set OUTPUT_DIR to the folder where you want to save the downloaded songs.

   OUTPUT_DIR = '/path/to/your/download/folder'  # Change this to your desired output folder

2. Run the Script

• Once configured, simply run the script:

python spotify_downloader.py

• The script will:
  • Fetch the song names and artist names from the Spotify playlist.
  • Search each song on YouTube and download it as an MP3 in the specified output folder.

Troubleshooting

• Missing yt-dlp: Ensure yt-dlp is installed. If not, install it with pip install yt-dlp.
• API Errors: Double-check your Spotify credentials in the script.
• Folder Permissions: Ensure that the specified output folder has write permissions.
