# Import spotipy and spotify auth
import spotipy
from spotipy.oauth2 import SpotifyOAuth

# Set up the client id and client secret (you can find the client secret 
# from the spotify dev page)
CLIENT_ID = "[YOUR_ID]"
CLIENT_ID = "[YOUR_SECRET]"

# Set the scope (what you are requesting Spotify to be able to do)
Scope = "user-modify-playback-state" 

# Create a spotify object passing the client id, client secret, 
# redirct url (which doesn't matter, just set it as your local host
# as shown below), and scope
SpotifyObject = spotipy.Spotify(
  auth_manager=SpotifyOAuth(
    client_id=CLIENT_ID,

    redirect_uri="http://localhost:8888/callback",
    scope=Scope))

# Set song name and artist (artist not required, but it can help your results)
SongName = "Penny Lane"
ArtistName = "The Beatles"
# Search for the song and return the results (the "type" param controls weather
# it would return tracks, albums, playlists, etc.)
Results = SpotifyObject.search(
  q=f'artist:"{ArtistName}" track:"{SongName}"', 
  type='track')

# Set the track uri to where it is in the returned json
TrackUri = Results['tracks']['items'][0]['uri']

# Start the playback while passing the uris (there is only one in this case, but
# it has to be passed in a list)
SpotifyObject.start_playback(uris=[TrackUri])
