```
Requirements:

Binaries

- ffmpeg*

Python packages:

- pip install -r requirements.txt

\*ffmpeg can be installed via apt for Debian-based distros or by downloading the binaries from [ffmpeg.org](https://ffmpeg.org) and placing them in your %PATH% in Windows.

- Use "-p" or "--playlist" to download a saved playlist from your account
- Use "-ls" or "--liked-songs" to download all the liked songs from your account
- Supply the URL or ID of a Track/Album/Playlist as an argument to download it
- Don't supply any arguments and it will give you a search input field to find and download a specific Track/Album/Playlist via the query.

- Change the MUSIC_FORMAT variable in zspotify.py to "ogg" if you rather that over "mp3"
- Change the FORCE_PREMIUM in zspotify.py to True if it is not automatically detecting your premium account.
- Change the RAW_AUDIO_AS_IS in zspotify.py to True if you wish to only save the raw audio stream without any re-encoding.

## **Changelog:**
**v1.6 (20 Oct 2021):**
- Added Pillow to requirements.txt.
- Removed websocket-client from requirements.txt because librespot-python added it to their dependency list.
- Made it hide your password when you type it in.
- Added manual override to force premium quality if zspotify cannot auto detect it.
- Added option to just download the raw audio with no re-encoding at all.
- Added Shebang line so it runs smoother on Linux.
- Made it download the entire track at once now so it is more efficent and fixed a bug users encountered.

**v1.5 (19 Oct 2021):**
- Made downloading a lot more efficient and probably faster.
- Made the sanitizer more efficient.
- Formatted and linted all the code.

**v1.4 (19 Oct 2021):**
- Added option to encode the downloaded tracks in the "ogg" format rather than "mp3".
- Added small improvement to sanitation function so it catches another edge case.

**v1.3 (19 Oct 2021):**
- Added auto detection about if the current account is premium or not. If it is a premium account it automatically sets the quality to VERY_HIGH and otherwise HIGH if we are using a free account.
- Fixed conversion function so it now exports to the correct bitrate.
- Added sanitation to playlist names to help catch an edge case crash.
- Added option to download all your liked songs into a sub-folder.

**v1.2 (18 Oct 2021):**
- Added .gitignore.
- Replaced dependency list in README.md with a proper requirements.txt file.
- Improved the readability of README.md.

**v1.1 (16 Oct 2021):**
- Added try/except to help catch crashes where a very few specific tracks would crash either the downloading or conversion part.

**v1.0 (14 Oct 2021):**
- Ajusted some functions so it runs again with the newer version of librespot-python.
- Improved my sanitization function so it catches more edge cases.
- Fixed an issue where sometimes spotify wouldnt provide a song id for a track we are trying to download. It will now detect and skip these invalid tracks.
- Added additional check for tracks that cannot be "played" due to licence(and similar) issues. These tracks will be skipped.

**v0.9 (13 Oct 2021):**
- Initial upload, needs adjustments to get working again after backend rewrite.
