rnagabhyrava / plex-playlist-sync

App to recreate spotify/deezer playlists in your local plex server.

Plex Playlist Sync

Create spotify and deezer playlists in your plex account using tracks from your server and keeps plex playlists in sync with original playlists.

This DOES NOT download any songs from anywhere.

Features

• From Spotify: Sync all of the given user account's public playlists to plex
• From Deezer: Sync all of the given user account's public playlists and/or any given public playlist IDs to plex
• --- New ---
• Option to write missing songs as a csv
• Option to include poster and description in playlists.

Prerequisites

Plex

• Plex server's host and port
• Plex token - Don't know where to find it?

To use Spotify sync

• Spotify client ID and client secret - Can be obtained from spotify developer
• Spotify user ID - This can be found on spotify account page

To use Deezer sync

• Deezer profile ID of the account from which playlists need to sync from
  • Login to deezer.com
  • Click on your profile
  • Grab the profile ID from the URL
  • Example: https://www.deezer.com/us/profile/9999999 - Here 9999999 is the profile ID OR
• Get playlists IDs of playlists you want to sync
  • Example: https://www.deezer.com/us/playlist/1313621735 - Here 1313621735 is the playlist ID

Docker Setup

You need either docker or docker with docker-compose to run this. Docker images are available on the hub for amd64, arm64 and arm/v7 and will be auto pulled based on your platform.

Configure the parameters as needed. Plex URL and TOKEN are mandatory and either one of the Options (1,2,3) fields are required.

docker run -d \
  --name=playlistSync \
  -e PLEX_URL=<your local plex url> \
  -e PLEX_TOKEN=<your plex token> \
  -e WRITE_MISSING_AS_CSV=<1 or 0> # Default 0, 1 = writes missing tracks from each playlist to a csv
  -e APPEND_SERVICE_SUFFIX=<1 or 0> # Default 1, 1 = appends the service name to the playlist name
  -e ADD_PLAYLIST_POSTER=<1 or 0> # Default 1, 1 = add poster for each playlist
  -e ADD_PLAYLIST_DESCRIPTION=<1 or 0> # Default 1, 1 = add description for each playlist
  -e APPEND_INSTEAD_OF_SYNC=0 # Default 0, 1 = Sync tracks, 0 = Append only
  -e SECONDS_TO_WAIT=84000 # Seconds to wait between syncs \
  -e SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID=<your spotify client id> # Option 1 \

plex-playlist-sync's Issues

Bug in code. OR instead of AND

Describe the bug
I believe you used OR instead AND at this place during plex search

plex-playlist-sync/plex-playlist-sync/utils/plex.py

Line 69 in c3333a5

if (not search) or len(track.title.split("(")) > 1:

otherwise it does not make sense.

Also it would be cool to increase search limit to higher number. Some songs were not found because of big music library.

To Reproduce
Just look at the code. Does not matter if you find anything, it will try to look for shorter name (splitted by "(" character )

Expected behavior
If match is found, do not keep looking

select specific playlists to be synced

Did you search the existing issue to make sure this is not a duplicate?
yes

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always frustrated when [...]
some playlists are not syncing somehow. might be that they are too big (too many songs on them) or too many playlists to sync

Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.
As not all playlists are synced somehow, it would be nice to be able to select certain playlists to be synced through spotify URI (spotify:user:xxxx:playlist:xxxx). That way you would also be able to select a different user then your own who has the playlist you want.

Describe alternatives you've considered
A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.

Option to merge playlists

Did you search the existing issue to make sure this is not a duplicate?
Didn't find anything about this

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I synchronize different playlists from deezer and spotify and I would love to be able to merge specific playlists in a new one

Describe the solution you'd like
Add a list of Deezer Ids or Spotify urls then a separator and the playlist name you want to be created that will merge the playlists defined

Describe alternatives you've considered
Soundiiz seems to have this functionnality but I'd like to stick with your app

Additional context
As Plex doesn't allow to make smart playlist based on other playlist, this feature request would make a great difference

Remastered album name shenanigans

Did you search the existing issue to make sure this is not a duplicate?
Yes. I didn't see anything

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Syncing from Spotify to Plex works amazingly well. Kudos! There is one small rub, however. Spotify seems to have the remastered albums instead of the original album. My Plex library has original albums. Because of this, the script isn't matching the album because the album name has something like "Remastered" in the name. Examples:

Van Halen,1984 (Remastered)
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds,Let Love In (2011 Remastered Version)
Led Zeppelin, Led Zeppelin II (1994 Remaster)
Ultramagnetic MC's, Critical Beatdown (Re-Issue)

Describe the solution you'd like
Would some sort of fuzzy matching on the album name be an option?

Describe alternatives you've considered
If I add these songs in by hand to the playlist, the next run of the script will delete and rebuild the playlist, so this doesn't work.

Additional context

How does it search Plex for the song?

Hi, not sure if this is a bug or request... so put it as a request.

How does this playlist creator find the music on my plex server?

This is the first time I have used this docker.
On a recent playlist imported from Spotify, I looked at the CSV file created for the tracks not found.
On checking a few of them I do have them on my server but not in the Album Spotify has them in, mine are in Compilation albums.

So does your script look up Song Name, Artist and Album?
If so can it then search just on Song Name and Artist as a fall back to see if it is anywhere else on the Plex server?

An example from the logs:
INFO:root:retrying search for Lovefool - Radio Edit
INFO:root:search for Lovefool - Radio Edit successful

But this did not go into the playlist on Plex, but when I search for Lovefool I have the song twice, once by Just Jack (live lounge) and the other by The Cardigans

When it says successful, does that mean it was successfully added to the CSV file or the playlist?

Thanks

Publish to Docker Hub

I would like to build this into unraid,
Could you per chance publish this on Docker?

thanks for considering.

Manually added songs in existing playlist got removed after next sync

Hi,

I want to manually add songs to my Plex playlist that aren't being detected correctly by the script.

My problem is that when I start the script again after a while to update the playlists, the manually added songs disappear. Why is this happening? I tought it updates existing playlist and does not delete them if they already exists?

Could you please let me know which part of the code is responsible for this behavior, and perhaps I can make the necessary changes in my local branch.

JSON/CSV support for playlist IDS

I'd like to specify which playlists from my profile to sync rather than all public. With many public playlists having them all sync through can be problematic.

I imagine that this should be fairly easy to implement, perhaps even within the environment variables and that these playlist IDs are already coming into account as they are for the Deezer side.

All playlists follow the same url structure: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1A2B3C...

Expanding Plex Playlist Sync to search for the missing songs in CSV in music library

Did you search the existing issue to make sure this is not a duplicate?
Yes

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I am trying to write a python script that can search through the CSVs generated by PSS, then search for the songs in my plex library, and add them to the appropriate playlists on Plex.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I could go through and add everything individually but I figured this would be more useful in the long run.

Additional context
I have a working script linked below.

https://github.com/secretlycarl/plex-playlist-fix

Music association in the wrong way

Hello, when associating the music from a Spotify playlist to Plex, it associates it incorrectly because it seems like it only looks for the name of the song and not also the artist(s) so there may be inconsistencies with the result. Would there be a way to solve this?

Option to disable suffix

I'd like to be able to disable the service suffix (e.g., - Spotify). This way the playlists would have the same name both on Deezer or Spotify and Plex.

Spotify sync error

I follow a bunch of Spotify playlist , the playlist are public but they don't sync , I receive this error

Add playlists as collections

Since playlists are by default not shared in Plex, I usually use Collections to have my users commonly benefit from a list of tracks.

It would therefore be nice to have the option to add playlists as collections.

Sync error, URI too large

Hey! I have recently found that my playlist was empty, so I started digging.
There seems to be size limit, looo at log @bottom.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Sync playlist with 3400 songs.

1. Configuration:
2. Spotify > Plex
3. Playlist(s) causing the issue: Playlist - Spotify

I was not adding any songs to this playlist since first sync, and at that time, it worked. It may be because I have added more songs (files) in Plex that are going to be added by this script.

Container logs:

File "/usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/plexapi/server.py", line 653, in playlist

[Feature Request] Add option to sync or update playlist

For daily updated playlists it could be great to have the possibility to choose between :

• sync (local playlist will be a copy of current spotify/deezer playlist)
• update (items in current spotify/deezer playlist will be added to existing items in local playlist)

APPEND_SERVICE_SUFFIX always shows after the playlist name, regardless if it's a 0 or 1.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Configuration: Running in Docker on a Synology NAS, happens while using Synology UI or Portainer UI.
2. Playlist(s) causing the issue: All
3. Song(s) causing the issue: N/A

Instead of writting missing songs as a csv, request in Lidarr

As the title states it would be awesome if when plex-playlist-sync finds a missing song, it would tell lidarr.

Issue with track name 'NoneType not subscriptable'

Whenever I try to run the script on this specific playlist (https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0Nq1trkWUxqlG1QjNnH5gw) it crashes with the error 'NoneType object is not subscriptable'. Since the logging isn't very robust, Ill try to spin up a dev environment tomorrow and see exactly what song is causing the issue, if you aren't able to get to it

Error is as follows:

An expected behavior could be to run through a playlist, and perhaps log an error of the song, instead of crashing completely.

PlexSyncList Container Crashing Due to Spotify API Rate Limit and Error Handling Issues

Hello,

I am experiencing consistent crashes with the PlexSyncList Docker container (rnagabhyrava/plexplaylistsync:latest). The primary issue seems to be related to the handling of Spotify API requests, leading to rate limit errors (HTTP 429) and occasional 502 errors.

Environment
Docker version: [Container Manager 20.10.23-1437]
Host OS: [Synology DSM]
PlexSyncList version: Latest (rnagabhyrava/plexplaylistsync:latest)
Configuration Details
Here's the relevant part of my docker-compose.yml:

services:
  playlistSync:
    image: rnagabhyrava/plexplaylistsync:latest
    container_name: playlistSync
    volumes:
      - /volume1/data/media/missing:/data
    environment:
      - PLEX_URL=[REDACTED]
      - PLEX_TOKEN=[REDACTED]
      - WRITE_MISSING_AS_CSV=1 
      - APPEND_SERVICE_SUFFIX=1 
      - ADD_PLAYLIST_POSTER=1 
      - ADD_PLAYLIST_DESCRIPTION=1 
      - APPEND_INSTEAD_OF_SYNC=0 
      - SECONDS_TO_WAIT=84000
      - SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID=[REDACTED]
      - SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET=[REDACTED]
      - SPOTIFY_USER_ID=[REDACTED]
    restart: unless-stopped
    network_mode: synobridge 

Observed Behavior
The container consistently crashes or encounters issues during its operation.
The logs indicate errors related to Spotify's API, specifically HTTP status code 429, suggesting rate limit exceeding.
There are also mentions of "too many 502 error responses" and "max retries exceeded" errors.
Troubleshooting Steps Taken
Verified SECONDS_TO_WAIT is set to 84000 seconds (23.3 hours), which seems adequate to avoid rate limiting issues under normal circumstances.
Reviewed Docker configuration for any misconfigurations or missing settings.

Possible Causes
The application might be making multiple requests in a short period that are not governed by the SECONDS_TO_WAIT setting.
The error handling for Spotify API requests (especially for HTTP 429 and 502 errors) may not be robust, leading to crashes.

Request for Assistance
Could you please help in identifying why these errors are occurring and suggest any potential fixes or workarounds? Additionally, if there are any specific logs or further information you need, I am happy to provide them.

Thank you for your time and assistance with this issue.

not all public playlists are synced

Hi,

I love Plex Playlist Sync; it makes it so much easier to automate getting updated playlists in Plex.

However, I've encountered an issue:
All my playlists are set to public, but only a part of them is being synced. Why is that?

Multiple user support

It'd be great to support a list of comma separated user ids.

Links in description rendered as raw html tags

When there is a link in a Spotify playlist description, the links are rendered as raw html tags (i.e., <a href="link">text<a/>). I don't believe that Plex support links in the descriptions, so one workaround would be to strip the text from the tags and render it as pure text.

Does the script consider disabled songs on spotify?

Hi,

Sometimes songs on Spotify have become disabled after a while, but you can still see them in playlists, grayed out. If I have these songs locally, the user might forget that they even exist in the local library and just using the playlists.

So, does the script take into consideration the disabled songs on Spotify and add them to the Plex playlist if they are still available locally?

Missing song CSV without sync

Would it be possible to run this to only output which tracks are missing in plex, without actually syncing?

CSV files not deleted when all media exists in Plex

Description:
When all media files in a playlist exist in Plex, the associated CSV file is not deleted and the following message is displayed: "playlistSync | INFO:root:Failed to delete --csv--, likely permission issue".

Configuration
The Docker container is on Windows via docker-desktop (WSL2) with the mount being local to the computer.
The Plex server is on a separate computer running Linux Mint and the media files are on a NAS.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Run the Docker container and observe the logs.
2. Create a playlist with media files that exist in Plex.
3. Check if the associated CSV file is deleted.
4. If the CSV file is not deleted, check if the message "playlistSync | INFO:root:Failed to delete --csv--, likely permission issue" is displayed.

Expected behavior:
When all media files in a playlist exist in Plex, the associated CSV file should be deleted automatically.

Screenshots:

Additional Information:
If the issue is related to my docker-compose configuration or some Windows setting, let me know.

Get list of missing songs

An additional question. Is it possible to get the list of songs that are not available in Plex (just to be aware of the difference between Spotify and Plex).
I tried to add a command to get_available_plex_tracks() (write track and artist to a .csv file, if except IndexError in line 235 and except BadRequest in line 211 ), but it seems to not pick-up all songs. Am I missing something?

Add Spotify CSV Importer

No

Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

With CSV output of missing tracks, send this to Spotify to create a new playlist or add to existing playlist. Combine this with Lidarr Import List functionality to have a recursive loop that keeps a Spotify and Plex playlist in sync indefinitely by downloading any missing tracks. Lidarr can monitor a Spotify playlist and automatically download the album for any songs added to import to Plex.

Describe alternatives you've considered
A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.

Lidarr functionality exists in a similar project (https://github.com/maxpfandl/SpotifyPlexSync/tree/main) and CSV import exists as well (https://github.com/smtchahal/spotify-import)

This could be a really cool feature!

Allow user to skip poster and description

Did you search the existing issue to make sure this is not a duplicate?
Yes

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, there is no option to toggle poster and description creation. This will always replace the poster/description on next run. Which will erase any manually added poster/description by the user.

Describe the solution you'd like
Allow user to choose if they want to save or not. This can be an option in docker env variables.

Spotify only pulls 50 playlists in its call, if you have more than that it doesn't grab them

Describe the bug
I have over 70 spotify playlists and I was looking at the calls, it looks like it only gets the last 50, we can put the call in a loop (I have a hacky fix locally but a ton of other changes too so I will try and fix this myself if nobody else does)

Something like this will get the next batch
sp_playlists = sp.user_playlists(user_id, limit=50, offset=50)
To Reproduce
Have more than 50 playlists

Expected behavior
Grabs all of the playlists (can batch them using offset)

Add playlist to multiple users

First of all, thanks for the amazing script. It works very well.

I have a question/ feature request. Instead of adding the playlist 'only' for one user, I would like to add it to the main user + one additional user in plex. The reason: the audio app (Plexamp) doesn't show shared playlists, but only playlists created by the user.

Would it be possible to add this feature (or you could also give me a hint here and I could try myself). Thanks in advance.

Spotify User ID Error

I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but can't figure it out.
I have added my Spotify Client ID, Client Secret and User ID according to the Readme and Docker Setup and keep getting this error. I know for a fact that I do have playlists. My Deezer account is working fine, just Spotify.

SSL self-signed certificate issue / ignore request / bug

Describe the bug
Hi,

First off i like what you are doing so thanks for that.
I currently run a remote plex server a remote host due to my homelab connection being to slow for multiple streams.
my homelab server basically does everything else (expect Plex).

Now when i run the container via HTTP to the remote host everything works and spotify playlists are imported into plex via API.
The issue starts when i change HTTP to HTTPS.

I rent the server via ultra.cc --> a known plex host but no root / admin rights on the server, i dont need it since i only run plex on there.
Since they control everything you are limited to the use of their domain --> in this case as follows:

https://cypher-direct.usbx.me:PORTNUMBER

so my configuration is pretty simple in my homelab:

playlistSync: image: rnagabhyrava/plexplaylistsync:latest container_name: playlistSync environment: - PLEX_URL= http://cypher-direct.usbx.me:PORTNUMBER - PLEX_TOKEN=PlexToken - SECONDS_TO_WAIT=21600 - SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID=CLIENTID - SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET=SECRET - SPOTIFY_USER_ID=USERID restart: unless-stopped

The above configuration works perfectly but i dont want my homelab to communicate over the internet via http.
If i then change it to https i get the following error:

`2024-01-05T13:18:19.864646939Z INFO:root:Starting playlist sync

Could you please add a feature (flag) to ignore self-signed certificate checks

For example:
environment:

• IGNORE_SSC=1 for yes 0 for null --> default 0

If any further information is required please dont hasitate to ask.

Spotify private playlist support

Did you search the existing issue to make sure this is not a duplicate?

Yes

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Yes, only my public playlists listed on my profile sync.

Describe the solution you'd like

Would be nice to have the private playlists sync too, if possible. Even having public but not listed on profile playlists would be great.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I can make the playlists public, sync, and then private again, but would be nice (and kind of the goal of using this code) to have it automated.

Additional context

None, thank you for the work you've done so far! I love it, would be nice to have this feature though.

Search playlists and songs async

Did you search the existing issue to make sure this is not a duplicate?
Yes

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It would be nice if all of the requests could be done asynchronously, instead of going in a nice order, it could go through all the playlists async, and then for each song do the request async. This would speed up the time to do the requests a lot I would assume, even with only ~20 threads running

Describe the solution you'd like
In the playlists loops spin up new threads, in the search loops spin up other threads. Even just one or the other would be really useful

Describe alternatives you've considered
None

Additional context
None

Missing playlists are not being removed when all songs become available

Describe the bug
When a playlist is missing some tracks locally, program creates csv file with missing tracks. But when all the missing tracks were added to plex and on rerun the csv file should be empty or deleted but that's not happening.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create some playlist (with a few missing tracks and turn on write missing)
2. Add all missing tracks manually after first run
3. Check csv file now (should be empty or missing but no changes)

Expected behavior
csv file should be deleted if no songs were missing.

Additional context
