SpotAPI

Welcome to SpotAPI! This Python library is designed to interact with the private and public Spotify APIs, emulating the requests typically made through a web browser. This wrapper provides a convenient way to access Spotify’s rich set of features programmatically.

Note: This project is intended solely for educational purposes and should be used responsibly. Accessing private endpoints and scraping data without proper authorization may violate Spotify's terms of service.

  • Private API Access: Explore private Spotify endpoints to tailor your application to your needs.
  • Ready to Use: SpotAPI is designed for immediate integration, allowing you to accomplish tasks with just a few lines of code.
  • No API Key Required: Seamlessly use SpotAPI without needing a Spotify API key. It’s straightforward and hassle free!
  • Browser-like Requests: Accurately replicate the HTTP requests Spotify makes in the browser, providing a true to web experience while remaining undetected.

Everything you can do with Spotify, SpotAPI can do with just a user’s login credentials.

Installation

pip install spotapi

Quick Examples

With User Authentication

from spotapi import (
    Login, 
    Config, 
    NoopLogger, 
    solver_clients, 
    PrivatePlaylist, 
    MongoSaver
)

cfg = Config(
    solver=solver_clients.Capsolver("YOUR_API_KEY", proxy="YOUR_PROXY"), # Proxy is optional
    logger=NoopLogger(),
    # You can add a proxy by passing a custom TLSClient
)

instance = Login(cfg, "YOUR_PASSWORD", email="YOUR_EMAIL")
# Now we have a valid Login instance to pass around
instance.login()

# Do whatever you want now
playlist = PrivatePlaylist(instance)
playlist.create_playlist("SpotAPI Showcase!")

# Save the session
instance.save(MongoSaver())

Without User Authentication

"""Here's the example from spotipy https://github.com/spotipy-dev/spotipy?tab=readme-ov-file#quick-start"""
from spotapi import Song

song = Song()
gen = song.paginate_songs("weezer")

# Paginates 100 songs at a time till there's no more
for batch in gen:
    for idx, item in enumerate(batch):
        print(idx, item['item']['data']['name'])
    
# ^ ONLY 6 LINES OF CODE

# Alternatively, you can query a specfic amount
songs = song.query_songs("weezer", limit=20)
data = songs["data"]["searchV2"]["tracksV2"]["items"]
for idx, item in enumerate(data):
    print(idx, item['item']['data']['name'])

Import Cookies

If you prefer not to use a third party CAPTCHA solver, you can import cookies to manage your session.

Steps to Import Cookies:

  1. Choose a Session Saver:

    • Select a session saver for storing your session data.
    • For simplicity, you should use JSONSaver, especially if performance or quantity of sessions is not a big concern.
  2. Prepare Session Data:

    • Create an object with the following keys:
      • identifier: This should be your email address or username.
      • cookies: These are the cookies you obtain when logged in. To get these cookies, visit Spotify, log in, and copy the cookies from your browser.
        • It can be a dict[str, str] or a string representation
  3. Load the Session:

    • Use Login.from_saver (or your own implementation) to load the session from cache. This will enable you to use Spotify with a fully functional session without needing additional CAPTCHA solving.
