MusicBucket Bot

About

MusicBucket Bot is a Telegram Bot that adds features and possibility to interact with Spotify music links that users send in a chat.

Its main feature is to allow you to save links that someones shares in a Chat in a personal list. So you can easily track which music you have pending to listen to.

When an user sends a link, the bot is able to get information from a Spotify link like:

• Artist
• Album
• Track
• Genres
• Audio preview

It also integrates with Last.fm to retrieve information about your user like Now Playing.

Why Telegram?

I chose Telegram because I'm in a few groups where we share music everyday. We soon realized that the links we shared in a group were often missed. Therefore, the idea of making a tool for keeping track of the music we share started growing so I started developing this bot.

Why Spotify?

At the start the bot supported both Spotify and Deezer, but Spotify is the platform that we use mostly, so implementing new features for both platforms became complicated and I decided supporting Spotify only.
