Simple library to get currently playing song from Spotify, optimal for small projects


  • Do you need a simple way to get the cover art of the song you are currently listening to?
  • Are you tired of having to code everything by yourself?
Look no further as spotify-image-py is the solution!

Spotify-image-py is perfect for:

  • Raspberry Pi projects
  • E-ink displays
  • And everything else you can think of

What makes spotify-image-py special?

Spotify-image-py uses Spotify's proprietary API to log you safely into the application via a QR-code.

Well, how do I get started?

Create a new application at https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard/ and copy your client ID as well as client secret. Then you simply use spotify-image-py as such:

from spotifyimage import SpotifyUser
from PIL import Image

spotify_user = SpotifyUser(client_id, client_secret, "0.0.0.0", 3030)

img, data = spotify_user.get_currently_playing_state()
print(f"{data["name"]} by {data["artists"]}")
img.show()
And ta-da you have now created your first program using spotify-image-py.

Limitations

Spotify-image-py cannot store your access token between different sessions. You will have to log in every time your restart your script.
