Playlist loading will quit after a while

[sweiner123]

Hi,

I've successfully used your package on a playlist of 16 songs. Its really great so far!

I have a playlist of 196 songs, and the process after running sp.get_playlist_features(playlist_id) will abort eventually.

I'll get the following in the console:

>>> playlist_df_hadar = sp.get_playlist_features(playlist_id)
Couldn't write token to cache at: .cache

This continuously brings up a new web page and the bar grows (I'm using localhost:8080). Then at some point I will get a long traceback with this error at the end.

spotipy.oauth2.SpotifyOauthError: Server listening on localhost has not been accessed

Not sure why this isn't working for this playlist. Maybe its the length? I would appreciate any insight you have! Or if you want to try this out for yourself, the playlist url is https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3PVerO7biDGJFGfr2YebKF

Hey @sweiner123 - been running some tests, I presume the length of the playlist isn't the issue. I was just able to run sp.get_playlist_features on a very large playlist before hitting the API call limit around 2000 songs.

I would check out this issue from spotipy's repo for some ideas on a fix: spotipy-dev/spotipy#363. Might be related to some security features on your machine.

Keep me posted, happy to hear you've been enjoying it at least in a limited manner!
