dusty-sorter v1.0.2
Dusty Sorter
A quick and dirty Spotify playlist sorter (actually just copies the playlist and makes a new sorted one, but who's keeping track?) for parties that queues that last multiple days.
It was made for randomising and sorting Joe's 21st birthday collaborative playlist. Though it could be used again in the future.
The program takes a config.json
file like so:
{
"playlist": "###",
"api": {
"clientId": "###",
"clientSecret": "###",
"redirectUri": "http://localhost:8080/callback"
},
"clock": {
"startTime": 17,
"chillVibes": 4,
"morningVibes": 10,
"hypeVibes": 13
}
}
And creates a new Spotify playlist with the music sorted for you.
To make use of it, put the Spotify playlist ID in playlist
, the Spotify API keys in api.clientId
and api.clientSecret
and get going.
The music goes from hype → chill → morning → hype music at the specified times (in 24 hour format)... Starting at 5 PM, changing to chill music at 4 AM, to morning music at 10 AM and back to hype at 1 PM.
How the different music styles are selected is specified in sorter.ts.
Usage
If you pass no parameters to the program, it will look for config.json
in the current working directory.
npx dusty-sorter
You can optionally choose a specific config.json
from the command-line as the first argument.
npx dusty-sorter ~/config/joe-bday.json
You can omit creating the new playlist (for testing) by passing --no-upload
afterwards.
npx dusty-sorter ~/config/joe-bday.json --no-upload
The program also drops a detailed song listing called playlist.txt
in the current working directory detailing the times the songs will play (assuming no gaps or fade), the current vibe and audio feature details.
