Guidance for getting codeQueryParam

[lucasmoten]

In releaseRadar.go and discoverWeekly.go, near the top are these comments

    // Follow this link and after you authenticate, it will redirect, and the url will have a code query parameter. Paste the code in codeQueryParam variable below.
    // https://accounts.spotify.com/authorize?client_id=&response_type=code&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Fcallback&scope=playlist-read-private%20playlist-modify-private%20playlist-modify-public%20user-read-email&state=34fFs29kd09

• client_id isn't set, and the result is a failure page.
  • Does this assume the user is logged in already?
• I suspect that the redirect_uri is either unnecessary or incorrect since it references example.com

I purposely yanked it out here. You can get your own by registering a new app (for free) at: https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard/applications

The redirect is necessary, as Spotify will redirect to that URL after you grant access via oAuth in the browser. The redirect will have a query parameter called code that you will need to use for the codeQueryParam value.

Yeah this is all janky until I just host this in a lambda with a webpage you can hit and all of this will be abstracted away.
