plistsync

Toolbox for transferring, converting and matching music collections and playlists across services.

Overview

plistsync is a Python toolbox designed to solve the common problem of fragmented music libraries across different platforms. Whether you're a DJ moving playlists between Traktor and streaming services, a music enthusiast syncing collections between Plex and Spotify, or simply organizing your music across multiple platforms, plistsync provides a unified interface to transfer, convert, and match your music data.

The core of plistsync is its abstraction layer that normalizes tracks, collections, and playlists from various services into a common format, enabling seamless synchronization while handling the complexities of different APIs, authentication methods, and metadata formats.

Features

• Unified Abstraction Layer: Normalizes tracks, collections, and playlists from various services into a common format, enabling seamless synchronization across platforms
• Extensible Service Architecture: The abstraction layer is designed to support arbitrary music services with consistent APIs
  • Currently supports Spotify, Tidal, Plex, Traktor and local files
• Collection Management: Sync entire music libraries or specific playlists between services
• Developer-Friendly: Built with type hints, comprehensive error handling, and pytest for testing
• Flexible Configuration: Manage service credentials and preferences through config files
