easy way to export spotipy id, secret and redirect uri

Viewed 49

Hi I was wondering if there was an easy way to export the SPOTIPY_ID, SPOTIPY_SECRET, and SPOTIPY_REDIRECT_URI to save time. Currently I am typing it out each time but was wondering if it could be done with shell scripting?

#!/bin/bash
export SPOTIPY_CLIENT_ID='xxx'
export SPOTIPY_CLIENT_SECRET='xxx'
export SPOTIPY_REDIRECT_URI='xxx'

I've tried running this but when I run the python script using spotipy I get this error:

No client_id. Pass it or set a SPOTIPY_CLIENT_ID environment variable.

You can use dotenv.

Check this post, for instance.
