Spotify Discord Status Updater

This is a flask server, that fetches the current song played on your Spotify account and updates your Discord status to reflect the same

Getting Started

1. Environment Variables

You will need a Spotify application API Client ID and Client Secret in order to run the server locally and implement the Spotify authentication. You can make an application at Spotify developer home. Further you will need to get your Discord User Token. A guide to get your Discord token is available here.

Add the environment variables to the .env file in the following format

DISCORD_TOKEN="YOUR_DISCORD_TOKEN_HERE"
SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID="YOUR_CLIENT_ID_HERE"
SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET="YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET_HERE"
REDIRECT_URI="http://localhost:5000/callback"

Warning: Do not share your Discord token with anyone!

It can be used as a potential vulnerablity to access your Discord account.

2. Install this project with

  pip install -r requirements.txt
  python spotify_send.py

3. Authenticate

Visit http://localhost:5000/ and authenticate the application to access user's current playing song.

Thats it!
