Transfer a Spotify Playlist to Google Play Music

A simple command line script to clone a Spotify playlist to Google Play Music. Also includes interfaces for

  • creating a Play Music playlist from a text file
  • uploading local MP3s to Play Music

New: YouTube Music support. Spotify playlists can now be transferred to YouTube Music thanks to ytmusicapi. Usage is identical to GoogleMusic.py, just use python YouTube.py with the same parameters.

Requirements

Setup

Initially you should create a new settings.ini containing your Spotify credentials. Simply copy settings.ini.example to a new file settings.ini and fill in your client_id and client_secret from https://developer.spotify.com/my-applications

For Google Play Music, open a console in the source code folder and run

python Setup.py <client>

where <client> should be mobileclient to setup playlist transfers or musicmanager to be able to upload files with GoogleMusicManager.py. For YouTube Music setup, use youtube.

Then follow the command line instructions to grant the app access to your account. All credentials are stored locally in the file settings.ini.

Transfer playlists

After you've created the settings file, you can simply run the script from the command line using

python GoogleMusic.py <spotifylink>

where <spotifylink> is a link like https://open.spotify.com/user/edmsauce/playlist/3yGp845Tz2duWCORALQHFO Alternatively you can also use a file name in place of a spotify link. The file should contain one song per line.

The script will log its progress and output songs that were not found in Google Play Music to noresults.txt.

Transfer all playlists of a user

For migration purposes, it is possible to transfer all public playlists of a user by using the user's ID (unique username).

python GoogleMusic.py --all <user>

Upload songs

To upload songs, run

python GoogleMusicManager.py <filepath>

Command line options

There are some additional command line options for setting the playlist name and determining whether it's public or not. To view them, run

> python GoogleMusic.py -h
