fuzzy_search_spotify: Search Spotify for a artist/song combination.

In apsteinmetz/spotfuzz: Crude fuzzy search for spotifyr package

Search Spotify for a artist/song combination.

Description

Return essential metadata as a tibble containing artist, track name, album name, track number, release date and spotify track uri. This will try to iteratively loosen the search parameters if no result is returned. First, it will see if the artist can be stripped to a single name. Then it will try using just the longest word in the song title and finally the second longest. Will return a tibble with all NAs if search fails. False positives with song words in common are rejected if the whole title is substially different. Vectorized along artist and track name. It's not perfect.

Value

tibble(artist, track name, album name, track number, release date and spotify track uri)
