An unofficial api for Google Play Music.

Project description

gmusicapi allows control of Google Music with Python.

from gmusicapi import Mobileclient

api = Mobileclient()
api.login('user@gmail.com', 'my-password')
# => True

library = api.get_all_songs()
sweet_track_ids = [track['id'] for track in library
                   if track['artist'] == 'The Cat Empire']

playlist_id = api.create_playlist('Rad muzak')
api.add_songs_to_playlist(playlist_id, sweet_track_ids)

gmusicapi is not supported nor endorsed by Google.

That said, it’s actively maintained, and used in a bunch of cool projects, like:

Getting started

Everything you need is at http://unofficial-google-music-api.readthedocs.org.

Status and updates

https://travis-ci.org/simon-weber/Unofficial-Google-Music-API.png?branch=develop

Over the summer, gmusicapi began a major shift away from the Webclient interface. That’s finished now, so prefer the new Mobileclient interface whenever possible. Non-deprecated parts of the Webclient are listed at the Webclient documentation page.

I’ve started fulltime work at Venmo as of November, meaning this project is back to night and weekend development.

History

As of 1.0.0, semantic versioning is used.

3.0.1

released 2013-12-11

  • remove extraneous logging introduced in 3.0.0 – this could have logged auth details, so it’s recommended to delete old logs

3.0.0

released 2013-11-03

  • Musicmanager.get_all_songs is now Musicmanager.get_uploaded_songs

  • Mobileclient.get_all_playlist_contents is now Mobileclient.get_all_user_playlist_contents, and will no longer return results for subscribed playlists

  • add Mobileclient.get_shared_playlist_contents

  • add Mobileclient.reorder_playlist_entry

  • add Mobileclient.change_song_metadata

  • add Mobileclient.get_album_info

  • add Mobileclient.get_track_info

  • add Mobileclient.get_genres

  • compatibility fixes

2.0.0

released 2013-08-01

  • remove broken Webclient.{create_playlist, change_playlist, copy_playlist, search, change_playlist_name}

  • add Mobileclient; this will slowly replace most of the Webclient, so prefer it when possible

  • add support for streaming All Access songs

  • add Webclient.get_registered_devices

  • add a toggle to turn off validation per client

  • raise an exception when a song dictionary is passed instead of an id

1.2.0

released 2013-05-16

  • add support for listing/downloading songs with the Musicmanager. When possible, this should be preferred to the Webclient’s method, since it does not have a download quota.

  • fix a bug where the string representing a machine’s mac was not properly formed for use as an uploader_id. This will cause another machine to be registered for some users; the old device can be identified from its lack of a version number.

  • verify user-provided uploader_ids

1.1.0

released 2013-04-19

  • get_all_songs can optionally return a generator

  • compatibility updates for AddPlaylist call

  • log to appdirs.user_log_dir by default

  • add open_browser param to perform_oauth

  • support uploading of all Google-supported formats: m4a, ogg, flac, wma, mp3. Non-mp3 are transcoded to 320kbs abr mp3 using ffmpeg

  • introduce dependency on ffmpeg. for non-mp3 uploading, it needs to be in path and have the needed transcoders available

  • get_playlists is now get_all_playlist_ids, and is faster

  • add an exception CallFailure. Api functions raise it if the server says their request failed

  • add suppress_failure (default False) option to Api.__init__()

  • change_playlist now returns the changed playlistId (pid)

  • change_song_metadata now returns a list of changed songIds (sids)

  • create_playlist now returns the new pid

  • delete_playlist now returns the deleted pid

  • delete_songs now returns a list of deleted sids

  • remove_songs_from_playlist now returns a list of removed (sid, eid) pairs

  • search dictionary is now flattened, without the “results” key. see documentation for example

2012.03.27

  • package for pip/pypi

  • add AUTHORS file

  • remove session.py; the sessions are now just api.PlaySession (Darryl Pogue)

  • protocol.Metadata_Expectations.get_expectation will return UnknownExpectation when queried for unknown keys; this should prevent future problems

  • add immutable ‘subjectToCuration’ and ‘metajamId’ fields - use unknown

2012.03.16

  • add change_playlist for playlist modifications

  • get_playlists supports multiple playlists of the same name by returning lists of playlist ids. By default, it will return a single string (the id) for unique playlist names; see the always_id_lists parameter.

  • api.login now attempts to bump Music Manager authentication first, bypassing browser emulation. This allows for much faster authentication.

  • urls updated for the change to Google Play Music

  • remove_songs_from_playlist now takes (playlist_id, song_ids), for consistency with other playlist mutations

2012.03.04

  • change name to gmusicapi to avoid ambiguity

  • change delete_song and remove_song_from_playlist to delete_songs and remove_songs_from_playlist, for consistency with other functions

  • add verification of WC json responses

  • setup a sane branch model. see http://nvie.com/posts/a-successful-git-branching-model/

  • improve logging
