GmusicExport

This program sorts music uploaded to Google Play Music, and exported from YouTube Music, using Takeout. It uses the metadata from the csv file to sort the music into folders by Artist/Album on a best-guess basis.

Steps:

  1. Request your data from Google Takeout here:

    1. https://takeout.google.com/settings/takeout?pli=1
    2. Export from YouTube Music export1.PNG
    3. Select only music related exports export2.PNG export3.PNG
  2. Download your music from Google Takeout

  3. Install Python 3.8+ (Tested with 3.8, 3.9.5, 3.11.0, 3.12.0)

  4. Run main.py at least twice. Each run through will catch more files.

    1. The program will ask you to locate the music-uploads-metadata.csv file in the music-uploads folder
    2. Between runs, you can add mp3 tags to the remaining files to help the program identify them.
    3. You may also want to clean up the artists and albums in your music-uploads-metadata.csv file.
    4. Playlists you created are not sorted by this program, but can be found in the playlists folder.
  5. Enjoy your sorted music!
