SPOTIFY STATS

What is this?

This is a Python Webapp that uses the Spotify Data provided to you to create a simple stats page for your Spotify account. It will show you your top artists, top tracks, and top genres. It will also show you your top tracks and artists for each year.

How do I request my data from Spotify?

1. Go to Spotify's Privacy Settings
2. Scroll down to "Download your data" and click "Request" for Account Data and Extended Streaming History
3. Wait for Spotify to send you an email with a download link
4. Download the data and upload it to the website

How do I run this locally?

In order to utilise this repo, you also need to create a spotify developer account. Once you've done that you should be able to go to the dashboard and then create a new app.

Open the new app and then click on Settings. In Settings get the Client ID and Client Secret.

1. Clone the repo
2. Install the requirements with pip install -r requirements.txt
3. Set the environment variable APP_SECRET_KEY located in .env.example to a random string/password, alongside CLIENT_ID and CLIENT_SECRET to the values you got from the Spotify Developer Dashboard
4. Rename .env.example to .env
5. Run the script with flask run in your terminal.
6. Go to 127.0.0.1:5000 in your browser
