Exportify

Exportify exports your Spotify playlists (tracks, artists, albums, and audio features) to CSV files. It has no published container image — only a Dockerfile you'd have to build yourself — and the hosted version runs entirely client-side in the browser with no server-side data storage, so there's nothing to self-host that isn't better served by the hosted app. See container-requests.md for the "will not be in the repo" rationale.

Hosted App: https://exportify.app/

Tutorial: Exporting your Spotify playlists

Option A — use the hosted app (recommended)

Go to https://exportify.app/
Click Log in with Spotify and authorize the app (it only requests read access to your playlists — it never modifies your Spotify account)
Your playlists load as a list; click Export next to a single playlist to download its CSV, or Export All to download every playlist as a zip of CSVs
Each CSV includes: Track URI, Track Name, Artist, Album, Release Date, Duration, Popularity, and Spotify audio-feature columns (Danceability, Energy, Key, Loudness, Tempo, etc.)

Since everything runs in your browser and talks directly to Spotify's API, no data passes through or is stored on any third-party server.

Option B — run it yourself (no published image, build from source)

Only worth doing if you don't trust the hosted instance or want to self-host on an internal network.

git clone https://github.com/watsonbox/exportify.git
cd exportify

Create a Spotify app at https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard to get a Client ID
Add your redirect URI (e.g. http://localhost:5000/callback or your own domain) in the Spotify app settings
Copy the example env and set your client id/redirect uri:
```
cp .env.example .env
nano .env
```

Build and run with the project's own Dockerfile:

docker build -t exportify .
docker run -d --name exportify -p 5000:5000 --env-file .env exportify

Open http://localhost:5000 and log in with Spotify as above

Using the exported CSVs

Import into a spreadsheet to dedupe playlists, sort by audio features, or build custom smart playlists
Feed into other tools (e.g. pandas.read_csv) for playlist analysis
Re-import isn't supported by Exportify itself — CSV export is one-way; use a separate tool (e.g. spotify-backup, soundiiz) if you need CSV-to-Spotify import

Gotchas

Spotify's API rate-limits large libraries; exporting many playlists back-to-back may need retries
Audio-feature columns depend on Spotify's Audio Features API remaining available — Spotify has deprecated/restricted parts of this API for new apps in the past, so some columns may be blank depending on your app's API access tier
The self-hosted route requires you to register and maintain your own Spotify Developer app (Client ID + redirect URI), which the hosted version already handles for you
