Usage

First install the package with pip

pip install spotify-client

Then import the client for usage in your application:

from spotify_client import SpotifyClient

SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID = 'client_id_from_spotify'
SPOTIFY_SECRET_KEY = 'secret_key_from_spotify'

client = SpotifyClient(
   SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID,
   SPOTIFY_SECRET_KEY,
   identifier='test-spotify-client'
)

You’ll need to generate your client ID and secret keys for authenticating with Spotify from their API console. You can find the steps for doing that in the Spotify documentation.

Optionally, you can also configure the client authentication configuration one time in a setup script by using the Config class:

from spotify_client import SpotifyClient
from spotify_client.config import Config

SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID = 'client_id_from_spotify'
SPOTIFY_SECRET_KEY = 'secret_key_from_spotify'

Config.configure(SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID, SPOTIFY_SECRET_KEY)

client = SpotifyClient()

You can optionally pass an identifier to the constructor. This will be used in logging messages by the client to uniquely identify logs for the client instance.
