A script to sync a playlist from iTunes with a folder (on your Android phone). Currently it needs the target folder mounted as USB mass storage.
Clone the project from GitHub and install it:
git clone git://github.com/silefort/DroidSync.git
cd /path/to/project/DroidSync
pip install -r requirements.txt
python setup.py install
Enjoy!
Call the script droidsync and define all iTunes playlists you want to clone
to your external device as well as the target folder (the mounted storage) as
arguments. Every argument except the last are interpreted as playlist names.
All media files in the target folder, that are not referenced in the playlist,
will be removed from your mobile device per default. If you add the option -a,
then no files are removed from the target folder.
Files, which are in the target folder, but are newer in your iTunes mediathek,
will be updated.
Examples:
-
Copy all tracks from iTunes playlists "Phone", "News" and "Loved Tracks" to the folder
~/Music/DroidSyncand remove all files from the target folder, that are not part of any playlist.droidsync Phone News "Loved Tracks" ~/Music/DroidSync -
Copy all tracks from iTunes playlist "My party mix" to the folder
/Volumes/Droid/Musicand leave all files in the target folder as they are.droidsync -a "My party mix" /Volumes/Droid/Music
