Playing A Playlist

Wraps around this Spotify API endpoint

Warning

This method requires Spotify Premium, and will NOT work without Spotify Premium (see here)

Note

This method does not match up with the API endpoint exactly, instead the ID of the playlist is used to build a Context Object which is then played

If an active device is not found, an error about the response status code not being 2xx will be thrown.

How to use

After creating a Spotify object, and getting a playlist through either .Playlists.GetPlaylist() or creating a new playlist with .Playlists.CreatePlaylist() (And adding tracks to the playlist), the .Play() method of the returned playlist object can be used.

.Play() will start playing the playlist on the active device.

Example

This example will:

A) Create a Spotify object (which will prompt the user for authorization if it is not already done)

B) Create a new (empty) playlist named Test 123 with the description This is an example playlist made by Spotify.ahk

C) Add a track to the new playlist with .AddTrack() by the track's Spotify ID

D) Will try to play the new playlist on the active device

Spoofy := new Spotify()
NewPlaylist := Spoofy.Playlists.CreatePlaylist("Test 123", "This is an example playlist made by Spotify.ahk")
NewPlaylist.AddTrack("5ogtb9bGQoH8CjZNxmbNHR")
NewPlaylist.Play()
