This is a simple Python script that uses the Unofficial-Google-Music-API to sync local XSPF or M3U format playlists to Google Music. For M3U playlists, the song info is determined by the song metadata so only MP3, FLAC, M4A, and MP4 formats are supported.
This script makes use of the Unofficial-Google-Music-API to interface with Google Music. To use it, you'll need to get to gmusicapi module from https://github.com/simon-weber/Unofficial-Google-Music-API. Either install it with pip or clone it and run python setup.py build followed by sudo python setup.py install.
Note: that the gmusicapi changes often breaking this script. If this happens feel free to open an issue or submit a pull request fixing compatibility.
Once the GoogleMusicAPI is installed, just run the playlist sync script like any other Python script. It will guide you through logging in and syncing songs.

The root directory of a music directory. Useful for
M3U playlists.

Users of two factor authentication can store an application specific password in a file so it does not need to be entered each time the script is run. To do this, place a file called creds.json in the same directory as the script with the following contents:
{
"username": "your username",
"password": "your application specific password"
}
WARNING: Do not store your regular password here as plain text!
Combining the credentials file with the --yes option allows for unattended synchronizations
