Documentation

Spotipy's full documentation is online at Spotipy Documentation.

Installation

Quick Start

A full set of examples can be found in the online documentation and in the Spotipy examples directory. Here are two basic examples.

To get started, install spotipy and create an app on https://developers.spotify.com/. Add your new ID and SECRET to your environment:

export SPOTIPY_CLIENT_ID='your-spotify-client-id'
export SPOTIPY_CLIENT_SECRET='your-spotify-client-secret'

Then, create a Spotify object and call methods:

import spotipy
from spotipy.oauth2 import SpotifyClientCredentials

sp = spotipy.Spotify(client_credentials_manager=SpotifyClientCredentials())

results = sp.search(q='weezer', limit=20)
for idx, track in enumerate(results['tracks']['items']):
    print(idx, track['name'])
