</p>
```
Requirements:
Binaries
- Python 3.8 or greater
- 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.
```
Command line usage:
python zspotify.py Loads search prompt to find then download a specific track, album or playlist
python zspotify.py <track/album/playlist url> Downloads the track, album or playlist specified as a command line argument
Extra command line options:
-p, --playlist Downloads a saved playlist from your account
-ls, --liked-songs Downloads all the liked songs from your account
Special hardcoded options:
MUSIC_FORMAT Set this to "ogg" if you would rather that format audio over "mp3"
FORCE_PREMIUM Set this to True if ZSpotify isn't automatically detecting that you are using a premium account
RAW_AUDIO_AS_IS Set this to True to only stream the audio to a file and do no re-encoding or post processing
```
## **Changelog:**
**v1.7 (21 Oct 2021):**
- Rewrote README.md to look a lot more professional.
- Added patch to fix edge case crash when downloading liked songs.
- Made premium account check a lot more reliable.
- Added experimental podcast support!
**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 efficient 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):**
- Adjusted 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 wouldn't 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.
