Automating my life with programming: Spotify Discover Weekly

I’m starting a series where I do a bunch of small programming side projects for fun by automating my life!

Today I worked on saving my Discover Weekly playlist automatically on Spotify each week. I don’t always get around to listening to those songs and by the next week they are gone and replaced by new songs so I wanted a way to archive them.

Programming can be incredibly useful and for those of you starting off and learning, there’s a ton of project ideas out there that can also end up being useful.

For this project, i set up a web app using Flask and wrote a simple python script that works with the Spotify API. The oauth was the hardest part of the automation but I figured that part out by using the Spotipy library.

I’m currently working on putting together some more short reels and a YouTube video on how I did it for those of you that want a more comprehensive follow along tutorial.
