Spotify Scripts Setup

For the spotify scripts to work, it is neccesary to first create an app on the spotify developer site. in the /spotify/auth_scripts/ folder you need to create a file with your client_secret and name it secret.txt. Now run the server with flask, and get your authorization code by visiting the url generated by the generate_auth_link.sh script. After visiting the link your authentication code is stored in /spotify/auth_scripts/auth_code.txt After this, run get_token.sh to get a refresh_token. This token will be used to get new auth_tokens from Spotify. Each new auth tokens lasts one hour. your refresh token is generated and stored in /spotify/auth_scripts/refresh_token.txt

The setup is now done. To get a fresh token simply execute the refresh_token.sh script. Do this before calling the API with any of the other scripts.
