Adds songs that are being played from an internet radio station to spotify playlist.
- Internet radio station must change the metadata for the artist and song for it to work.
#helloworld hexchat show current playing song in vlc.
Log all the songs playing to excel and and them to Spotify playlist
Began as a test to see how to use xlwings. I came up with a fun problem to solve and it snowballed from there
Open vlc and goto Tools -> Preferences
Show Setting - Choose All
In interfaces click on Main interface - Check Web make sure http is written out in the box
Expand Main interfaces choose Lua.
Lua HTTP - put in a password and source directory. Mine is C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\lua\http
Check off Directory index
Save
It should work and you can test it by going to: http://localhost:8080/requests/status.xml
Fire up a internet radio and start logging songs
Comment out xlwings code if you dont want to use excel to log music.
Note: the station I listen to sends out a string of artist - song name , your station maybe different and the parser may need to change.
Don't forget to update the config.py file with your informaiton.
- Clean up code - if else indents
- Search for duplicates in the DB - Done in VLC No UI
- Log songs to excel and DB at the end after attempting to add to spotify
- Move filters to DB pre load from config.
- Remove xlwings and make csv file instead
- Test on other platforms
