Installation
To make this work best you want to have pip
(http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip) installed, although technically it
is possible to install it without it.
From a terminal, (Terminal.app if you’re on a Mac, or whatever turns
you on) after installing pip, do:
sudo pip install argparse mutagen zipls
That should do it. If it doesn’t, please contact me.

Graphical Use
After installation there should be a program zipls that you can
run. Run it.
That is to say that, in general, if you run zipls without any
arguments it will give you a gui.
If you run it from a command line with playlist files as arguments,
you can give it the -g switch to make it still run in graphical
mode. All arguments given to the command line should still apply even
if run in graphics mode.
Command Line
Typically:
zipls PLAYLIST.pls
that’ll generate a zip file PLAYLIST.zip with a folder PLAYLIST inside
of it with all the songs pointed to by PLAYLIST.pls.
And of course:
zipls --help
works. (Did you think I was a jerk?)
Programmers
Basically all you care about is the Songs class from zipls. It
takes a path, or list of paths, to a playlist and knows how to zip
them:
from zipls import Songs
songs = Songs("path/to/playlist.m3u")
# __init__ just goes through add():
songs.add("path/to/another/playlist.xspf")
# lists of paths also work:
songs.add(['another.pls', 'something/else.m3u'])
songs.zip_em('path/to/zipcollection')
Extending
First of all, just email me with an example of the playlist that you
want zipls to parse and I’ll do it. But if you want to not
monkey-patch it:
If you want to add a new playlist format with extension EXT: subclass
Songs and implement a function _songs_from_EXT(self, 'path/to/pls') that expects to receive a path to the playlist.
Similarly, if you want to add audio format reading capabilities
subclass Song (singular) and create a _set_artist_from_EXT, where
EXT is the extension of the music format you want to add. You’ll also
need to initialize Songs with your new song class.
So if I wanted to add .spf playlists and .mus audio:
class MusSong(zipls.Song):
def _set_artist_from_mus(self):
# and then probably:
from mutagen.mus import Mus
self.artist = Mus(self.path)['artist'][0]
class SpfSongs(zipls.Songs):
def _songs_from_spf(self, playlist):
# add songs
songs = SpfSongs('path/to/playlist', MusSong)
Works With
playlist formats:
.pls
.xspf
.m3u
A variety of common audio formats. (Ogg Vorbis, MP3/4, FLAC…)
Basically everything supported by mutagen should work
