liblistenbrainz
liblistenbrainz is a simple Python library for the ListenBrainz Web API.
liblistenbrainz will help you start getting data from and submitting data to ListenBrainz very quickly.
Here's an example of getting the listening history of a ListenBrainz user::
import liblistenbrainz
client = liblistenbrainz.ListenBrainz()
listens = client.get_listens(username='iliekcomputers')
for listen in listens:
print("Track name:", listen.track_name)
print("Artist name:", listen.artist_name)
Here's another quick example of how to submit a listen to ListenBrainz::
import liblistenbrainz
import time
auth_token = input('Please enter your auth token: ')
listen = liblistenbrainz.Listen(
track_name="Fade",
artist_name="Kanye West",
release_name="The Life of Pablo",
listened_at=int(time.time()),
)
client = liblistenbrainz.ListenBrainz()
client.set_auth_token(auth_token)
response = client.submit_single_listen(listen)
