metadata-extractor

Package to fetch music metadata from common Music APIs from a variety of data sources.

Currently, YouTube, YouTube Music and Spotify links are supported and data is fetched from Spotify APIs.

Installation

pip install music-metadata-extractor

Ensure that the .env file for your project has all the environment variables defined in .env.template.

SPOTIPY_CLIENT_ID and SPOTIPY_CLIENT_SECRET can be obtained by creating a new app on the Spotify Developer Dashboard.

Similarly, you can get GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS by creating a new project on the Google Developer Console. Enable the YouTube Data API and create credentials. Use the API key you get in the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS.

Usage

Example

from music_metadata_extractor import SongData
data = SongData("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwtdhWltSIg")
print(data)

The output is in the format
