Access token expired error when using spotdl as a library. #490

I'm getting access token expired error when using spotdl as a library.

Error message

http status: 401, code:-1 - https://api.spotify.com/v1/tracks/6jRmczmtqIiXZBKUBHNgTn?si=u84Ru2cFRzufAPOc4qTIcg: The access token expired

SpotifyException

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Is there any way to refresh token programmatically using spotdl as a library?

Any quick fix for this? @ritiek

Take a look how it is done when using the CLI: https://github.com/ritiek/spotify-downloader/blob/a182fe5eb38a4c952fbd56a2f504aa7e5ebf0b03/spotdl/downloader.py#L204-L210

You would need to wrap your code in a try-catch block and look for the spotipy.client.SpotifyException exception which gets raised when the token expires. Then you need to regenerate the token and continue with the usual work.
