IpodSyncer

Quick tool to sync Spotify liked songs to local MP3s and generate playlists.
Mainly used in combination with a matcha and feminist literature.

Setup

Install dependencies:

pip install spotipy yt-dlp

Set up Spotify API credentials in the code (yeah I know, should be env vars).

Usage

# Generate playlist and song list from Spotify
py sync.py -p

# Check what songs are missing locally
py sync.py -m

# Download missing songs
py sync.py -d

# Process everything (default)
py sync.py

M3U Playlist Improvements

• Add track duration to #EXTINF entries (currently just using -1)
• Include artist/title parsing for better #EXTINF format
• Add #PLAYLIST: header with playlist name
• Maybe add album info with #EXTALB: and #EXTART:
• Consider file size info with #EXTBYT:

General

• Better error handling for network issues
• Progress bars for downloads
• Config file for output directories
• Metadata tagging for downloaded MP3s
• Add more information to .m3u

Files

• mp3/ - Downloaded songs go here
• Spotify_Liked_Songs.m3u - Playlist file (in mp3 folder)
• Spotify_Liked_Songs_List.txt - Song list for comparison
• Missing_Songs.txt - Songs that the script might have missed that still need to be downloaded
