Description:
GPMPlaylistGenerator 1.2.1
This is a command-line tool to generate a set of standard playlists for
Google Play Music libraries.
It’s currently in beta, and some knowledge of Python and comfort with
the command line is required. Depending on interest, I will make it more
user friendly. The author is using the tool and care is being taken not
to make a mess in the library manipulated (I care about mine too), but
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Installation
You can either do a:
pip install GPM-Playlist-Generator
or if you’ve cloned this repo:
python setup.py install
Running the tool
Simply run:
gpm-playlistgen.py config.yaml
What it does
The default configuration captured in config.sample.yaml will log
prompt you to log into your account via OAuth, download the list of tracks
and playlists in your library, and do the following as per the playlist
section in the configuration:
Generate a set of playlists grouping your tracks by month in which
they’ve been added to your library (monthly_added)
Generate a sorted list of your most frequently played tracks
(most_played)
The playlist generated will all have a name starting with “[PG]”. This
is configurable.
If you rerun the tool, it will only regenerate the playlists that are
needed (new tracks in monthly added, and most played).

FAQ
I don’t trust this tool
“No problem”. You can run it with the --dry-run option. It will not
write anything to your account, simply show you what it would do.
I want to get rid of all those generated playlists
You can run:
gpm-playlistgen.py --delete-all-playlists config.yaml
The description field is used to check that this is a generated list,
but I strongly advise to the the following first to see what it’s going
to do:
gpm-playlistgen.py --delete-all-playlists config.yaml --dry-run
