Source Authentication and Authorization

Before using tap-spotify, you will need to create an app from your Spotify developer dashboard. We recommend restricting your use of this app to tap-spotify only. Provide an name, description and a redirect URI of https://alecchen.dev/spotify-refresh-token (explained below).

Get a Refresh Token

Use this web app made by Alec Chen to get a refresh token with your Spotify app credentials:

• Provide your app client ID and secret in the appropriate fields
• Click 'Submit' and follow the Spotify login flow
• Copy the refresh token

THe following token scopes are required (and are pre-selected for you when following the above web app link):

• user-top-read
• user-library-read

If a required scope is not set, tap-spotify will encounter a 403 Forbidden response from the Spotify Web API and fail. You must set all required scopes.

Some scopes are not required. Setting these will allow tap-spotify to read more specific and possibly sensitive resource data, so do this at your own risk.

Usage

You can easily run tap-spotify by itself or in a pipeline using Meltano.

Executing the Tap Directly

tap-spotify --version
tap-spotify --help
tap-spotify --config CONFIG --discover > ./catalog.json

Developer Resources

Initialize your Development Environment

pipx install poetry
make init

Lint your Code

Identify lint issues by running:

make lint

If make init has been run, this command will execute automatically before a commit

You can also fix lint issues automatically with:

make lint-fix

Create and Run Tests

Create tests within the tap_spotify/tests subfolder and then run:

make test

You can also test the tap-spotify CLI interface directly using poetry run:

poetry run tap-spotify --help

Testing with Meltano

Note: This tap will work in any Singer environment and does not require Meltano. Examples here are for convenience and to streamline end-to-end orchestration scenarios.

Your project comes with a custom meltano.yml project file already created. Open the meltano.yml and follow any "TODO" items listed in the file.

Next, install Meltano (if you haven't already) and any needed plugins:

# Install meltano
pipx install meltano
# Initialize meltano within this directory
cd tap-spotify
meltano install

Now you can test and orchestrate using Meltano:

# Test invocation:
meltano invoke tap-spotify --version
# OR run a test `elt` pipeline:
meltano elt tap-spotify target-jsonl
