Spotify Web API Python3 Library
</h1>
## Overview
This API provides Python programmers the ability to retrieve information from the Spotify Web API from any program written in Python 3. It also allows player control via Spotify Connect devices.
More information about the Spotify Web API can be found on the <a href="https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api" target="_blank">Spotify Developer Portal page</a>.
*IMPORTANT*
This API assumes you will adhere to all of the terms set forth in the <a href="https://developer.spotify.com/terms" target="_blank">Spotify Developer Terms of Use</a>. The developers of this API are not responsible for misuse of the underlying Spotify Web API.

## Requirements and Dependencies
The following requirements must be met in order to utilize this API:
* You must have a Spotify account (free or premium). Note that some API functions require a PREMIUM account in order to work. Check the [Spotify Developer Documentation](https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/transfer-a-users-playback) pages for more details.
* You will need to create a Spotify App in order to access the Spotify Web API. An App provides the Client ID and Client Secret needed to request an access token by implementing any of the OAuth2 authorization flows. More information about creating an application can be found on the Spotify [Getting started with Web API](https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/tutorials/getting-started) page.
The following Python-related requirements must be met in order to utilize this API:
* Python 3.4 or greater (Python 2 not supported).
* oauthlib (==3.2.2) - for OAuth support.
* platformdirs (==4.1.0) - for platform dependent directory support.
* smartinspectPython (==3.0.30) - for diagnostics and logging support.
* requests (==2.31.0) - for web service request support.
* requests_oauthlib (==1.3.1) - for OAuth support.
* urllib3 (==2.1.0) - for web service request support.
## Documentation
Documentation is located in the package library under the 'docs' folder; use the index.html as your starting point.
You can also view the latest docs on the <a href="https://spotifywebapipython.readthedocs.io/en/latest/__init__.html" target="_blank">readthedocs web-site</a>.
## Installation
This module can be easily installed via pip:
``` bash
$ python3 -m pip install spotifywebapipython
```
## Quick-Start Sample Code
Almost every method is documented with sample code; just click on the "Sample Code" links under the method, and use the "Copy to Clipboard" functionality to copy / paste.
Check out the following classes to get you started:
- `spotifywebapipython.spotifyclient.SpotifyClient` - main client class.
## Licensing
This project is licensed and distributed under the terms of the MIT End-User License Agreement (EULA) license.
## Logging / Tracing Support
The SmartInspectPython package (installed with this package) can be used to easily debug your applications that utilize this API.
The following topics and code samples will get you started on how to enable logging support.
Note that logging support can be turned on and off without changing code or restarting the application.
Click on the topics below to expand the section and reveal more information.
<details>
<summary>Configure Logging Support Settings File</summary>
<br/>
Add the following lines to a new file (e.g. "smartinspect.cfg") in your application startup / test directory.
Note the file name can be whatever you like, just specify it on the call to `SiAuto.Si.LoadConfiguration()` when initializing the logger.
``` ini
; smartinspect.cfg
; SmartInspect Logging Configuration General settings.
; - "Enabled" parameter to turn logging on (True) or off (False).
; - "Level" parameter to control the logging level (Debug|Verbose|Message|Warning|Error).
; - "AppName" parameter to control the application name.
Enabled = False
Level = Verbose
DefaultLevel = Debug
AppName = My Application Name
; SmartInspect Logging Configuration Output settings.
; - Log to SmartInspect Console Viewer running on the specified network address.
Connections = tcp(host=192.168.1.1,port=4228,timeout=5000,reconnect=true,reconnect.interval=10s,async.enabled=true)
; - Log to a file, keeping 14 days worth of logs.
;Connections = "file(filename=\"./tests/logfiles/logfile.log\", rotate=daily, maxparts=14, append=true)"
; - Log to an encrypted file, keeping 14 days worth of logs.
;Connections = "file(filename=\"./tests/logfiles/logfileEncrypted.sil\", encrypt=true, key=""1234567890123456"", rotate=daily, maxparts=14, append=true)"
; set defaults for new sessions
; note that session defaults do not apply to the SiAuto.Main session, since
; this session was already added before a configuration file can be loaded.
; session defaults only apply to newly added sessions and do not affect existing sessions.
SessionDefaults.Active = True
SessionDefaults.Level = Message
SessionDefaults.ColorBG = 0xFFFFFF
; configure some individual session properties.
; note that this does not add the session to the sessionmanager; it simply
; sets the property values IF the session name already exists.
Session.Main.Active = True
Session.Main.ColorBG = 0xFFFFFF
```
</details>
<details>
<summary>Initialize Logging Support, MAIN module</summary>
<br/>
Add the following lines to your program startup module.
This will import the necessary package modules, and initialize logging support.
NOTE - This code should only be executed one time!
``` python
# load SmartInspect settings from a configuration settings file.
from smartinspectpython.siauto import *
siConfigPath:str = "./tests/smartinspect.cfg"
SIAuto.Si.LoadConfiguration(siConfigPath)
# start monitoring the configuration file for changes, and reload it when it changes.
# this will check the file for changes every 60 seconds.
siConfig:SIConfigurationTimer = SIConfigurationTimer(SIAuto.Si, siConfigPath)
# get smartinspect logger reference.
_logsi:SISession = SIAuto.Main
# log system environment and application startup parameters.
_logsi.LogSeparator(SILevel.Fatal)
_logsi.LogAppDomain(SILevel.Verbose)
_logsi.LogSystem(SILevel.Verbose)
```
</details>
<details>
<summary>Initialize Logging Support, CLASS or sub-modules</summary>
<br/>
Add the following lines to your program supporting modules.
This will import the necessary package modules, and initialize the shared logging session.
``` python
# get smartinspect logger reference.
from smartinspectpython.siauto import *
_logsi:SISession = SIAuto.Main
```
</details>
<details>
<summary>More Information on SmartInspect</summary>
<br/>
You can use SmartInspectPython by itself to create log files for your own applications.
Use the following PIP command to install the SmartInspectPython package from PyPi.org:
``` bash
$ python3 -m pip install smartinspectpython
```
The SmarrtInspect Redistributable Console Viewer (free) is required to view SmartInspect Log (.sil) formatted log files, as well capture packets via the TcpProtocol or PipeProtocol connections. The Redistributable Console Viewer can be downloaded from the <a href="https://code-partners.com/offerings/smartinspect/releases/" target="_blank">Code-Partners Software Downloads Page</a>. Note that the "Redistributable Console Viewer" is a free product, while the "SmartInspect Full Setup" is the Professional level viewer that adds a few more bells and whistles for a fee. Also note that a Console Viewer is NOT required to view plain text (non .sil) formatted log files.
