For a final assignment in a class, I've created a How-To video that showcases how to get setup with API credentials, Redirect URIs, and Spotify Developer Accounts, all of which are necessary prerequisites to using the Spotipy library.
I wanted to do this because, in my past experience, the most frustrating thing about working with APIs and libraries is authentication. Spotipy does a nice job of wrapping some of this and making it easier on the developer, but it still takes some setup before successful use.
Specifically, my video goes through the following:
* Installing Spotipy
* Setting up a Spotify Developer Account
* Configuring the Redirect URI
* Getting the Client Secret and Public Keys
* Setting the envars for use with Spotipy
* Running a sample piece of code from Spotipy to show that things are setup properly
Not sure how to edit RSt properly, but wanted to point out for others the superhelpful feature that spotipy already includes code to launch an http server to listen for the http callback
* Fixed issue where using rediret uri 'localhost' (without specifying a port) would cause the authorization process to hang (not asking the user to paste/enter the URL redirected to)
* Updated the documentation to match the changes to the authorization process - also kind of fixing issues #474 and #471
* Fixed Flake8 over-indentation remark
