Unofficial YTMusic API

# ytmusicapi: Unofficial API for YouTube Music A work-in-progress API that emulates web requests from the YouTube Music web client.

Currently you need to extract your authentication data from your web browser and provide it through a file for it to work.

Note: I have not tested this with any account other than my own. Please let me know if it works for you.

## Requirements

• Python 3 - https://www.python.org

## Setup

pip install git+https://github.com/sigma67/ytmusicapi

Authenticated requests

To run authenticated requests you need to copy your request headers from a POST request in your YTMusic Web Client. To do so, follow these steps: - Copy headers_auth.json.example to headers_auth.json - Open YTMusic in Firefox - Go to the developer tools (Ctrl-Shift-I) and right click a POST request. - Copy the request headers (right click > copy > copy request headers) - Paste the three missing items to headers_auth.json

## Usage Unauthenticated requests for retrieving playlist content or searching: ` from ytmusicapi import YTMusic ytmusic = YTMusic() `

Authenticated request to interact with your playlist (requires setting up your credentials in headers_auth.json): ` from ytmusicapi import YTMusic ytmusic = YTMusic('headers_auth.json') `

## Contributing Pull requests are welcome. There are still lots of features unimplemented, for example retrieving content from the library and other parts of YTMusic.
