🎵 Spotify Downloader API + CLI + WORKER QUEUE

This project provides an integrated FastAPI backend and Typer CLI tool to download songs from Spotify links (track, album, or playlist) by searching for the corresponding YouTube audio and saving it locally as .mp3.

Apart from the above methods the whole application can be run as a scalable backend using Worker Queue (in our case RabbitMQ) . NodeJS server produces messages which is consumed by our python program to download songs .

📦 Features

✅ FastAPI Backend (HTTP API)

• /v1/spotify/find – Accepts Spotify URL, fetches metadata, downloads from YouTube.
• /v1/song/list – Lists downloaded songs.
• /v1/song/download/{song_name} – Serves MP3 file for download or playback.

✅ Typer CLI Tool

• spotify-find <url> – Downloads from Spotify track/album/playlist link.
• list-songs – Lists locally saved MP3s.
• download-song <name> – Prints absolute path to downloaded MP3.
• install-completion – Enables shell autocomplete for CLI.

🛠️ Setup: SongSnatch with Worker Queue

This project allows users to download songs from Spotify (track, album, or playlist) using a background worker architecture with:

• ✅ Node.js (API producer)
• ✅ Python (worker/consumer)
• ✅ Redis (job tracking)
• ✅ RabbitMQ (task queue)

---

✅ Prerequisites

Ensure the following are installed:

• Node.js
• Python 3.8+
• Docker
• pip3 (Python package installer)

---

🐇 1. Start RabbitMQ (with Management UI)

docker run -it --rm -d \
  --name rabbitmq \
  -p 5672:5672 \
  -p 15672:15672 \
  rabbitmq:3-management

• UI: http://localhost:15672
• Username: guest | Password: guest

---

🧠 2. Start Redis

docker run -d \
  --name redis \
  -p 6379:6379 \
  redis:latest

---

🚀 3. Start the Node.js Producer (API Server)

cd producer
npm install
npm start

---

⚙️ 4. Start the Python Worker (Consumer)

cd worker
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
python3 consumer.py

---

🌐 API Endpoints
