Export or backup your Spotify playlists
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'spotifyexporter'And then execute:
$ bundle install
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install spotifyexporter
You will need to authenticate the CLI before you can use it.
You can generate a Spotify API Key at: https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard/applications
After you have an API Key available, run the auth command and enter your credentials:
spotifyexporter auth
The CLI will persist these credentials on your file system within the .config directory.
Next, you can run the export command to get a full list of songs in each playlist for a particular user.
# Create an output directory
mkdir output_dir
# Run the export command for username "djkoze", generate playlists in .m3u format
spotifyexporter export -u djkoze -o output_dir -f m3uAfter checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install.
