I never trust these music services to remember what music I love. Tidal doesn’t have an easy way to export this. I just want a CSV file to keep so Tidal doesn’t own the music I have found.
So here is a small repo you can clone to run against your Tidal and pull your favorites out.
# You need to install tidalapi using pip install tidalapi (more can be found here https://github.com/tamland/python-tidal)
# had to be fixed with https://github.com/tamland/python-tidal/pull/130
import csv
import sys
import pprint
import tidalapi
session = tidalapi.Session()
session.login_oauth_simple()
favorites = tidalapi.Favorites(session, session.user.id)
#
# Get Tracks
#
open('../tracks.csv', 'w').close()
f = open("../tracks.csv", "a")
f.write('track,album,artist\n')
getMore = True
limit = 1000
offset = 0
while getMore == True:
tracks = favorites.tracks(limit, offset);
offset += limit;
if len(tracks) == 0:
getMore = False
for track in tracks:
f.write(','.join([track.name, track.album.name, track.artist.name]) + '\n')
#
# Get Artists
#
open('../artists.csv', 'w').close()
f = open("../artists.csv", "a")
f.write('artist\n')
getMore = True
limit = 1000
offset = 0
while getMore == True:
artists = favorites.artists(limit, offset);
offset += limit;
if len(artists) == 0:
getMore = False
for artist in artists:
f.write(artist.name + '\n')
#
# Get Album
#
open('../albums.csv', 'w').close()
f = open("../albums.csv", "a")
f.write('album,artist\n')
getMore = True
limit = 1000
offset = 0
while getMore == True:
albums = favorites.albums(limit, offset);
offset += limit;
if len(albums) == 0:
getMore = False
for album in albums:
f.write(','.join([album.name, album.artist.name]) + '\n')
