Spotify Keychain 3D Model

This repository contains the code and 3D model files needed to create a custom Spotify keychain. This keychain is designed to incorporate a Spotify code of your favorite song, album, artist, or playlist, which can be scanned to play music directly from Spotify.

How to Use the Code

The script in this repository uses cadquery to modify a base 3D model of the keychain by adding a Spotify code to it. Follow these steps to use the code:

1. Setup Python Environment:

   • Ensure you have Python installed on your system.
   • Install required packages: cadquery, requests, PIL (Python Imaging Library), and io.
   • You can install these packages using pip install cadquery requests pillow.

2. Running the Script:

   • Open the script in your Python environment.
   • Run the script. It will prompt you to enter the link of the song, album, artist, or playlist from Spotify.

3. Input URL Parsing:

   • The script parses the provided Spotify link and prepares a URL to fetch the corresponding Spotify code.

4. Downloading the Spotify Code:

   • The script downloads the Spotify code as an image based on the parsed data.

5. Loading the Code Image:

   • The code image is loaded and processed to determine the bar lengths which are essential to generate the Spotify code's pattern.

6. Editing the Base Model:

   • The script then takes a base model of the keychain (in STEP format) and modifies it by adding the Spotify code pattern.
   • The model is updated with extrusions representing the unique barcode of your Spotify link.

7. Exporting the Final Model:

   • Finally, the script exports the modified model as an STL file, which can be used for 3D printing.

8. 3D Printing:

   • Use the exported STL file to 3D print your custom Spotify keychain.

Customization

You can customize the keychain by using different Spotify links. Each link will generate a unique code that represents the specific song, album, artist, or playlist.
