Music Uploader

Overview

A personal Flask-based web service that leverages SoundCloud and YouTube download APIs and macOS AppleScript to automate music ingestion into Apple Music. Accessible from any device on your local network, this tool streamlines capturing and uploading your favorite tracks.

Project Structure

• main.py: Core Flask application and download logic
• config.yaml: Application settings
• templates/: Jinja2 HTML templates for the UI
• static/: CSS & JavaScript assets
• script.applescript: Automates Music app upload on macOS
• requirements.txt: Python dependencies

Installation & Usage

1. Clone: git clone https://github.com/BaileyHelfer/upload_amusic.git
2. Create & activate venv:
   python3 -m venv venv && source venv/bin/activate
3. Install deps: pip install -r requirements.txt
4. Configure config.yaml
5. Run: python main.py
6. Open http://localhost:5000 in browser or phone

Challenges

With no official API for Apple Music uploads, macOS AppleScript provided the only reliable path—albeit a workaround—requiring user login in the Music app.

Inspiration

I wanted a seamless way to save streamed music into my personal library without manual downloads and file transfers. This service automates that flow end-to-end.
