Usage

Below are the inputs/outputs to this script:

Inputs:

• playlistUrls: A slice of strings. These strings are Spotify playlist urls.

Example: If you wanted to choose Jazz in the Background playlist, this would be the link you would enter in the playlistUrls variable: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF1DWV7EzJMK2FUI?si=2dc14fb0f2c64435

• .env file: on the Spotify Developer Dashboard, create a new app. Give it whatever name you'd like, and note the client id and client secret given to you by the dashboard - these will be needed to run the script. Create an .env file at the root of this repository. In this file, add these 2 environment variables:

CLIENT_ID="<YOUR_CLIENT_ID_HERE>" CLIENT_SECRET="<YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET_HERE>"

Outputs:

• ./exports/<TIMESTAMP>/<PLAYLIST_NAME>.csv: .csv files that contain important information about the playlist's tracks such as:
  • Name
  • Artists
  • Album Name
  • Duration

Example: These are the songs on Jazz in the Background playlist in the exported .csv file

This is the same file but in a more user friendly presentation:
