|
|
- Downloads songs from YouTube in an MP3 format by using Spotify's HTTP link.
|
|
|
|
- Can also download a song by entering its artist and song name (in case if you don't have the Spotify's HTTP link for some song).
|
|
|
|
- Automatically applies metadata to the downloaded song which include:
|
|
|
|
- Title
|
|
- Artist
|
|
- Album
|
|
- Album art
|
|
- Lyrics (if found on http://lyrics.wikia.com)
|
|
- Album artist
|
|
- Genre
|
|
- Track number
|
|
- Disc number
|
|
- Release date
|
|
- And more...
|
|
|
|
- Works straight out of the box and does not require to generate or mess with your API keys (already included).
|
|
|
|
That's how your music library will look like!

## Installation
|
|
|
|
**This tool works with only Python 3**.
|
|
|
|
Python 2 compatibility was dropped because of the way it deals with unicode (2020 is coming soon too).
|
|
If you still need to use Python 2 - check out the (outdated)
|
|
[python2](https://github.com/ritiek/spotify-downloader/tree/python2) branch.
|
|
|
|
spotify-downloader works with all major distributions and even on low-powered devices such as a Raspberry Pi.
|
|
|
|
Check out the [Installation](https://github.com/ritiek/spotify-downloader/wiki/Installation) wiki page
|
|
for OS-specific instructions to get spotify-downloader working on your system.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
For the most basic usage, downloading tracks is as easy as
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ python3 spotdl.py --song https://open.spotify.com/track/2DGa7iaidT5s0qnINlwMjJ
|
|
$ python3 spotdl.py --song "ncs - spectre"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For downloading playlist and albums, you need to first load all the tracks into text file and then pass
|
|
this text file to `--list` argument. Here is how you would do it for a playlist
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ python3 spotdl.py --playlist https://open.spotify.com/user/nocopyrightsounds/playlist/7sZbq8QGyMnhKPcLJvCUFD
|
|
INFO: Writing 62 tracks to ncs-releases.txt
|
|
$ python3 spotdl.py --list ncs-releases.txt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
