Weekly Backup Playlist for "Discover Weekly" on Spotify 🎵✨

This Python script automates the process of creating a weekly backup playlist of the "Discover Weekly" playlist on Spotify. 🚀 It uses the Spotipy library to interact with the Spotify Web API.

📑 Requirements

Make sure to install the required modules using the following commands:

pip install spotipy
pip install datetime

💡 How it Works

The script checks if the "Discover Weekly" playlist exists in the user's Spotify profile. If the playlist does not exist, it informs the user that there is no "Discover Weekly" playlist. If the playlist already exists, it creates a new playlist with the name "Weekly Playlist - Week XX (YYYY-MM)" (where "XX" represents the current week number and "YYYY-MM" represents the year and month). 📅

After creating the backup playlist, the script copies all the songs from the "Discover Weekly" playlist to the newly created backup playlist. This ensures that your favorite weekly recommendations are saved for future listening. 🎧

🔑 Spotify Client Information

To use this script, you need to set up your Spotify client information:

client_id = 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID'
client_secret = 'YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET'

💾 Code Execution

🔍 Additional Notes

The script requires proper authentication using Spotify's OAuth flow and may need to be authorized with the necessary scopes to perform playlist-related actions.
