I developed a Simple Telegram bot that automatically adds Spotify tracks to a shared playlist whenever they are pasted in a Telegram chat. My friends and I regularly exchange music in our Telegram group chat, and we wanted a seamless way to compile all our shared tracks into one playlist. The bot utilizes the Telegram Bot API and the MTProto API to interact with Telegram, while the Spotify Web API handles interactions with Spotify. Built using Node.js, the project comprises three main components: The server  manages Spotify authentication and tokens, ensuring secure and efficient communication with the Spotify API. The bot application handles the Telegram bot's operations, monitoring the chat for new Spotify track links and adding them to the shared playlist. Finally the populate-history script  accesses the entire message history of our Telegram group chat, extracts all previously shared Spotify tracks, and adds them to the playlist. This bot streamlines the process of creating a collaborative playlist, making it easy for us to enjoy and discover new music together.
