Gmusic Playlist Importer

Introduction

This is a modified version of Simon Weber's playlist importer for Google Play Music (which can be found here: https://github.com/simon-weber/Google-Music-Playlist-Importer).

Why Did I Modify It?

• I needed a different regex pattern as my music library is set up differently.
• I wanted to simplify the script so it had less manual intervention

Requirements

• Python >= 2.7
• My forked version of gmusicapi which fixes a couple of bugs in tools.py. It's currently pointing to a patch-2 branch. Once my open PR to the main repository gets approved/merged, this will no longer be necessary. Don't know why TravisCI is crying about it.

Supports

I have only tested the script with M3U and M3U8 playlist formats.

Usage

python import.py my-playlist.m3u

What It Does

• Goes through your playlist file and attempts to match each song with one in your Google Music library
• Creates a playlist automatically with the filename of the playlist (minus the file extension)
• The power of the gmusicapi asks you to choose a result if there's a "tie-break" (more than one match found)
• Adds all matched results to your new playlist

What It Won't Do

• Check if the playlist exists. This means if you run the same import twice, it will create a duplicate. Google isn't that fussy about unique names for playlists.
