Spotfy Web API

The Spotify Web API is based on REST principles. Data resources are accessed via standard HTTPS requests in UTF-8 format to an API endpoint. Where possible, Web API uses appropriate HTTP verbs for each action:

Method   Action
GET          :Retrieves resources
POST        :Creates resources
PUT          :Changes and/or replaces resources or collections
DELETE     :Deletes resources

argparse pythone module

The argparse module makes it easy to write user-friendly command-line interfaces. The program defines what arguments it requires, and argparse will figure out how to parse those out of sys.argv. The argparse module also automatically generates help and usage messages and issues errors when users give the program invalid arguments.
