spotifyAddTracks.py

# This is code for converting text file to Spotify playlists
# Make sure you have spotipy and requests and sys installed as modules in python
# Change the username, playlist name, and location of your data file below
# The txt file should be in the format of {track title}//{artist name}
    # don't include the brackets, just type the title and name
    # do include two forward slashes between the title and artists
        # if you want to separate your title and artist with something besides two forward slashes, change the variable "delim" below
        # be careful though to make sure you do not choose a character that might be present in the song or artist names (e.g. don't use ", ")
    # include an empty line at the end of your data file or the last artist won't be read correctly
    # the titles and artist names must not have typos
 
# You also will need to create and register an application with Spotify, but this is easy. Go to My Applications | Spotify Developer and create an app
    # Then, enter this url into the Redirect URLs section: "http://localhost:8888/callback"
    # Copy the client ID and secret into the variables named my_client_id and my_client_secret below
 
# When you first use this code and sign in to your account, a browser page will be opened that shows a blank page (or an error)
    # Copy the entire URL from this browser page and enter it into python
