Spotify Intructions

To get a Spotify client id, client secret and refresh token, follow instructions at Spotify Web API Tutorial

Oauth token store

The oauth token needs to be stored to be refreshed, there are currently two storage options, DynamoDB or a file, specified in the STORE option below.
If storing the oauth token in DynamoDB, the key to store it is 'spotijjjy_token'.

If using the DynamoDB store, boto3 is required - pip install boto3

Notes

Spotify searching

I do my best to find the correct song via the spotify search api, using a variety of methods. I use Multiple API options (searching with the artist, or artists, or full text search), and from the returned search results, I try to find the exact song using fuzzy string matching. YMMV

Deploying

pytest -vs
python3 setup.py sdist bdist_wheel
python3 -m twine upload dist/*
