Spotify built in shuffle sucks and it's been a hot topic for years in the Spotify forums, yet nothing acceptable have been made.
- Handles playlists of unlimited size.
- Can shuffle from one playlist (source) to another (destination).
- Easily shuffle multiple playlist by passing .cfg-file as argument.
- A Spotify account
- Python 3.x
- Spotipy
- Login with your Spotify account and create an app (found under dashboard) here: https://developer.spotify.com/
- Copy "Client ID" and "Client Secret".
- Add any URL as Redirect URL (under Edit Settings).
- Go to https://open.spotify.com/ and click the playlist you want to shuffle (if you want to use one playlist as source and another as destination/shuffled then do this step twice).
- Make note of the playlist ID in the URL.
- Go to https://spotify-refresh-token-generator.netlify.app/ and get a "refresh token" (mark scopes "playlist-modify-public" and "playlist-modify-private").
- Populate config.cfg with your data and you are GOOD TO GO! :)
