An async Python interface to the Spotify API using aiohttp.
Note: This is alpha software. Use at your own risk.
Installation
To install, use pip:
python -m pip install aiohttp_spotifyIt's best if you also install and use aiohttp-session.
Usage
To add the OAuth flow to your app:
from aiohttp import web
import aiohttp_spotify
async def handle_auth(request: web.Request, auth: aiohttp_spotify.SpotifyAuth):
# Store the `auth` object for use later
app = web.Application()
app["spotify_app"] = aiohttp_spotify.spotify_app(
client_id=CLIENT_ID,
client_secret=CLIENT_SECRET,
redirect_uri=REDIRECT_URI,
handle_auth=handle_auth,
)
app.add_subapp("/spotify", app["spotify_app"])Then you can make calls to the API as follows:
from aiohttp import ClientSession
async def call_api(request: web.Request) -> web.Response:
async with ClientSession() as session:
response = app["spotify_app"]["spotify_client"].request(
session, auth, "/me"
)
# The auth object will be updated as tokens expire so you should
# update this however you have it stored:
if response.auth_changed:
await handle_auth(request, response.auth)
return web.json_request(response.json())where auth is the SpotifyAuth object from above.
Take a look at the demo directory for a more complete example.
