How to use?

# for all users

First of all clone this project or download the project as a zip file and extract it to your pc. (or you can see Releases)

git clone https://github.com/dropcreations/Manzana-Apple-Music-Tagger.git && cd Manzana-Apple-Music-Tagger

Install required modules for python (use pip3 if pip doesn't work for you)

pip install -r requirements.txt

Then you have to ready your files for tagging. So, if you are tagging a complete album you must have the tracks in M4A format (with AAC or ALAC codec) and then rename each file as 01, 02, 03,... (number must have 2-digits) respectively to the order of tracks in Apple Music. For an example, assume you have an album called "Doja Cat - Planet Her" in M4A format and they are currently renamed as below

Doja Cat - Planet Her (https://music.apple.com/us/album/planet-her/1573475827)
  │
  ├── Alone.m4a
  ├── Been Like This.m4a
  ├── Get Into It (Yuh).m4a
  ├── I Don't Do Drugs.m4a
  ├── Imagine.m4a
  ├── Kiss Me More.m4a
  ├── Love To Dream.m4a
  ├── Naked.m4a
  ├── Need to Know.m4a
  ├── Options.m4a
  ├── Payday.m4a
  ├── Women.m4a
  └── You Right.m4a

So, now you have to rename those as below.

Lyrics                      : Gimme something I can feel / Light a cigarette just so I can breathe / Gimme something, something real / Seven hundred feet off the coast of Greece / Gimme something I can feel / No reservation, pull up twenty deep / Gimme something, something real / I would trade it all just to be at peace / Stop, the gear's too high, this is overload / It don't matter what car is sittin' outside, it's a lonely road / It's a double-edged sword, cuttin' off ties with the ones I know / So tell me, how the fuck am I still alive? It's a miracle / And I can't believe, ran through a B at Louis V / It's what I need right now / It's just my need, at the gates of hell, no VIP / Everybody waits in line / So gimme something I can feel / 720S, 750 V / Gimme something, something real / I was in Maldives, sippin' burgundy / Gimme something I can feel / Prada on my dick, Prada on my sleeve / Gimme something, something real / I could play that pussy like it's "Für Elise" / I got real habits, I'm a snowmobile addict / Teal Patek steel when I feel panic / Throw a mil' at it, problem, throw a bill at it / Still at it, sign-another-deal addict / And I can't believe everybody gets to drink for free / So give me one more round / No cover fee at the gates of hell, no VIP / Everybody waits in line / So gimme something I can feel / Light a cigarette just so I can breathe / Gimme something, something real / How much psilocybin can a human eat? / Gimme something I can feel / Whiskey lullaby just to fall asleep / Gimme something, something real / And it's what I want, it ain't what I need / Gimme something I can feel / Got everything, guess I'm hard to please / Gimme something, something real / I would trade my life just to be at peace / Gimme something I can feel / Gimme something, something real
