MPD Automate is a Python project designed to automate the process of searching for songs on YouTube, downloading them using the PyTube library, and extracting their metadata using the Spotipy library. This project aims to simplify the task of acquiring songs and their relevant information, making it easier for users to manage their music collection on your mpd client.
The main functionality of MPD Automate revolves around using the youtube-search-python module to perform a search query for a specific song. Once the desired song is found, the PyTube library is utilized to download the song from YouTube. Finally, the Spotipy library is employed to extract the metadata associated with the downloaded song.
By combining these powerful libraries, MPD Automate provides a streamlined solution for music enthusiasts to discover and manage their favorite songs effectively. Whether you want to create playlists, organize your music library, or explore new tracks, MPD Automate offers a comprehensive set of tools to simplify these tasks.
