Discord Server - NotABug Mirror

Requirements:

- Python 3.9 or greater
- ffmpeg*
- Git**

Python packages:

*ffmpeg can be installed via apt for Debian-based distros or by downloading the binaries from ffmpeg.org and placing them in your %PATH% in Windows. Mac users can install it with Homebrew by running brew install ffmpeg.

**Git can be installed via apt for Debian-based distros or by downloading the binaries from git-scm.com for Windows.

Command line usage:

Basic command line usage:
  zotify <track/album/playlist/episode/artist url>   Downloads the track, album, playlist or podcast episode specified as a command line argument. If an artist url is given, all albums by specified artist will be downloaded. Can take multiple urls.

Different usage modes:
  (nothing)            Download the tracks/alumbs/playlists URLs from the parameter
  -d,  --download      Download all tracks/alumbs/playlists URLs from the specified file
  -p,  --playlist      Downloads a saved playlist from your account
  -ls, --liked-songs   Downloads all the liked songs from your account
  -s,  --search        Loads search prompt to find then download a specific track, album or playlist
  
Extra command line options:
  -ns, --no-splash     Suppress the splash screen when loading.
  --config-location    Use a different config.json.

Options:

All these options can either be configured in the config or via the commandline, in case of both the commandline-option has higher priority.
Be aware you have to set boolean values in the commandline like this: --download-real-time=True

Docker Usage - CURRENTLY BROKEN

Build the docker image from the Dockerfile:
  docker build -t zotify .
Create and run a container from the image:
  docker run --rm -u $(id -u):$(id -g) -v "$PWD/zotify:/app" -v "$PWD/config.json:/config.json" -v "$PWD/Zotify Music:/Zotify Music" -v "$PWD/Zotify Podcasts:/Zotify Podcasts" -it zotify

Will my account get banned if I use this tool?

Currently no user has reported their account getting banned after using Zotify.

It is recommended you use Zotify with a burner account. Alternatively, there is a configuration option labled DOWNLOAD_REAL_TIME, this limits the download speed to the duration of the song being downloaded thus appearing less suspicious. This option is much slower and is only recommended for premium users who wish to download songs in 320kbps without buying premium on a burner account.

Use Zotify at your own risk, the developers of Zotify are not responsible if your account gets banned.

What do I do if I see "Your session has been terminated"?

If you see this, don't worry! Just try logging back in. If you see the incorrect username or password error, reset your password and you should be able to log back in.
