SPOTIFY ARTWORK APP

A (very) simple app that addresses an annoying feature (bug? oversight?) in Spotify: There's no way to see full size artwork!

This app uses Spotify's API to search for the entered track.

Preview

Requirements

pip3 install flask
pip3 install requests
pip3 install python-dotenv

Spotify Developer Requirements

You will need a Spotify for Developers account to use this application.

Once you have a created an account, go to your dashboard and click on 'Create an App.'

After you create your app, you will recieve a <client_id> and a <client_secret> - which you can enter in the .env file.

You will also need to create your own <secret_key> in order to use Flask's session. Any random string will do.

Once you have the <client_id>, <client_secret> and <secret_key>, all three can be set in the .env file.

# .env
SECRET_KEY = 'your secret key goes here'
CLIENT_ID = 'your spotify client_id goes here'
CLIENT_SECRET = 'your spotify client_secret goes here'

Planned updates(soonish)

  • Display a list of results, instead of returning the first result
  • More robust error handling
  • Sync to user's currently playing tracks, so artwork is automatically updated
