fully functional audio mp3 player with python tkinter and pygame

All you need is just python and the pygame library

With this audio player you can search, play, pause get next song get previous song on your device

Pygame is a python library for game programming

For now all you need to know about pygame is how it can be used to make audio player

Pygame has the module mixer for loading and playing sounds and controlling audios as we shall see

pip install pygame

Now let’s load an audio an play it

from pygame import mixer
# Starting the mixer
mixer.init()
# Loading the song
mixer.music.load("audio.mp3")
# Start playing the song
mixer.music.play()

Now we can load and play audio ,let’s set the volume using this code

from pygame import mixer
# Starting the mixer
mixer.init()
# Loading the song
mixer.music.load("song.mp3")
# Start playing the song
mixer.music.play()

# Setting the volume
mixer.music.set_volume(0.7)

And we can pause and un pause audio using this codes

# Pausing the music
mixer.music.pause()
# Resuming the music
mixer.music.unpause()

Stop and exit the mixture using this code

# Stop the mixer
mixer.music.stop()

let’s build a GUI for this using tkinter

first import mixer from pygame

import os for getting audios from your machine

import tkinter for gui

messagebox to display pop up messages and filedialogue to open files

from pygame import mixer
import os
from tkinter import*
from tkinter import messagebox, filedialog

then initialize the mixture

and give the default directory from which audio files will be loaded

mixer.init()
dir_path=os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath('C:\\User\\g'))

Declare our variables

allaudios to store all loaded audios

audionumber to to keep track of total number of audios loaded

now to know the position (number) of current audio playing

volume to set volume for audio

pause to determine whether audio is paused or not

allaud_name to keep all the names of loaded audios

allaudios=[]
audionumber=0
now=0
volume=0.4
mixer.music.set_volume(volume)
allaud_name=[]
pause=False

Create our main window

Give the window a title

Give the window a color

Give the window default size

app=Tk()
app.title('mini player')
app.config(bg='white')
app.geometry('200x200')

Function to load our audios

This function Check files in the given directory

If any file ends with .mp3 then increase the audionumber by one

Append the file to audio_name

To make the full path to access the audio then use the os.join to join the root of the audio to the file name

In the full path created replace double slash with four slashs so that we get a valid path

Then print all loaded audio files

def loadaudios():
    global allaud_name
    global audionumber
    global allaudios
    global dir_path
    for root,dirs,files in os.walk(dir_path):
        for file in files:
            if file.endswith('.mp3'):
                audionumber=audionumber+1
                #print(root+'/'+str(file))
                allaud_name.append(file)
                audio=os.path.join(root,file)
                audio2=audio.replace('\\',"\\\\")
                allaudios.append(audio2)
    print(allaudios)

Now this is the function for pausing and playing the audio

If this function is called check pause==FALSE that is song is playing

If true the song is playing then pause it and set pause to be TRUE

Else if song is paused then unpause it and set pause to FALSE

def pause_play():
    global now
    global pause
    global allaud_name
    if pause==False:
        mixer.music.pause()
        pause=True
    else:
        mixer.music.unpause()
        pause=False
    pass

This function increase the volume by 0.2 each time it’s called

def volp():
    global volume
    volume=volume+0.2
    mixer.music.set_volume(volume)

This function decreases the volume by 0.2 each time it’s called

def volm():
    global volume
    volume=volume-0.2
    mixer.music.set_volume(volume)

This function is to play next song it stops the current audio and loads the next audio by increasing now by one and then plays the audio

def next_audio():
    global audionumber
    global now
    now=now+1
    mixer.music.stop()
    mixer.music.load(allaudios[now])
    mixer.music.play()
    audnow.set(allaud_name[now])

This function is to play previous song it stops the current audio and loads the previous audio by decreasing now by one

And then plays the audio

def pre_audio():
    global now
    global allaud_name
    now=now-1
    mixer.music.stop()
    mixer.music.load(allaudios[now])
    mixer.music.play()
    audnow.set(allaud_name[now])

This function displays all the audio files loaded,selects folder ,searches audio files and plays them

So here new window is created for this function and set its colour to white

Declare tkinter variable to handle search of audio

Create and entry for searching

Create a button that will call what I call a secondary function in this function to search audio for the text in the entry

Add scrollbar to the new window that will scroll in the y axis

Add another scrollbar that will scroll in the x axis

Then add the list box which will contain the all the audios and search results and attach the two scrollbars to work with it
then add all audios in the listbox

Set the direction in which two scrollbars will scroll listbox contents

Add a button to play selected audio in the listbox which will call the secondary function select which will play the selected song

Add button to open folder to display audio of a particular folder this function calls the selectfolder function

python tkinter audio mp3 player list and search songs

def allaudio():
    global allaud_name
    global audionumber
    global allaudios
    global now
    def searching():
        global allaud_name
        global audionumber
        global allaudios
        global now
        search_text=search.get()
        print(search_text)
        listbox.delete(0,'end')
        
        print(search_text)
        for i in allaud_name:
            if search_text in i:
                listbox.insert(END, str(i))
                listbox.pack(side=LEFT, fill=BOTH)
    def select():
        global allaud_name
        global audionumber
        global allaudios
        global now
        for i in listbox.curselection():
            print(listbox.get(i))
            selected=listbox.get(i)

        audnow.set(selected)
        for i in range (0,len(allaud_name)):
            if allaud_name[i]==selected:
                now=i
                mixer.music.stop()
                mixer.music.load(allaudios[now])
                mixer.music.play()
                audnow.set(allaud_name[now])
                
        newwindow.destroy()
    def selectfolder():
        global allaud_name
        global audionumber
        global allaudios
        global now
        global dir_path
        now=0
        audionumber=0
        
        directory= filedialog.askdirectory(initialdir="%")
        dir_path=directory
        allaud_name=[]
        allaudios=[]
        loadaudios()
        newwindow.destroy()
    newwindow=Toplevel()
    newwindow.config(bg='white')
    search=StringVar()
    ent1=Entry(newwindow,textvariable=search).pack()
    but2=Button(newwindow,text='SEARCH',bg='red',fg='white',command=searching).pack()
    
    scrollbar = Scrollbar(newwindow)
    scrollbar.pack(side=RIGHT, fill=Y)
    scrollbar2 = Scrollbar(newwindow)
    scrollbar2.pack(side=BOTTOM, fill=Y)
    listbox = Listbox(newwindow, yscrollcommand=scrollbar.set,bg='white',fg='black',xscrollcommand=scrollbar2.set)
    for i in allaud_name:
        listbox.insert(END, str(i))
        listbox.pack(side=LEFT, fill=BOTH)
    scrollbar.config(command=listbox.yview)
    scrollbar2.config(command=listbox.xview)
    but=Button(newwindow,text='PLAY',bg='red',fg='white',command=select).pack()
    but3=Button(newwindow,text='FOLDER',bg='red',fg='white',command=selectfolder).pack(side=RIGHT)
    pass

Now lets get to the secondary functions in this allaudio()

This function is to search for the audio in the loaded audios

This function gets the text from the entry box and searches for related audio name in the allaud_name

It deletes the content of the listbox then it inserts the new related results into the list box

    def searching():
        global allaud_name
        global audionumber
        global allaudios
        global now
        search_text=search.get()
        print(search_text)
        listbox.delete(0,'end')
        
        print(search_text)
        for i in allaud_name:
            if search_text in i:
                listbox.insert(END, str(i))
                listbox.pack(side=LEFT, fill=BOTH)

Function for selecting audio

This function first gets the selected item from the list box and then sets the selected audio name as the current playing audio

Then it searches for a match between the selected file and allaud_name and it sets now number to the number of the matching allaud_name and the plays the audio.

    def select():
        global allaud_name
        global audionumber
        global allaudios
        global now
        for i in listbox.curselection():
            print(listbox.get(i))
            selected=listbox.get(i)

        audnow.set(selected)
        for i in range (0,len(allaud_name)):
            if allaud_name[i]==selected:
                now=i
                mixer.music.stop()
                mixer.music.load(allaudios[now])
                mixer.music.play()
                audnow.set(allaud_name[now])
        newwindow.destroy()

The function for selecting folder

Uses filedialog for user to change the current directory

After changing the directory, it clears the audios of the old directory

    def selectfolder():
        global allaud_name
        global audionumber
        global allaudios
        global now
        global dir_path
        now=0
        audionumber=0
        
        directory= filedialog.askdirectory(initialdir="%")
        dir_path=directory
        allaud_name=[]
        allaudios=[]
        loadaudios()
        newwindow.destroy()

call loadaudios() to load all audios current folder

Now back to the main window let’s add command buttons

First declare tkinter variable to display the current playing song

And set it to ‘’,no song is playing

Add a label for the app, its like the logo

Add a label for currently playing audio

Add buttons for next, previous, pause and play v+ and v-

Then call app.mainloop() to keep the app running

loadaudios()
audnow=StringVar()
audnow.set(' ')
appname=Label(text='♪AUDIO PLAYER\n',bg='red',fg='white',font=('garamond',15)).place(x=20,y=10)
audname=Label(textvariable=audnow,bg='white',font=('garamond',15)).place(x=10,y=80)
nxt=Button(text='Audios',bg='red',fg='white',command=allaudio).place(x=80,y=110)
nxt=Button(text='->',bg='red',fg='white',command=next_audio).place(x=120,y=150)
pev=Button(text='℗',bg='red',fg='white',command=pause_play).place(x=90,y=150)
pev=Button(text='<-',bg='red',fg='white',command=pre_audio).place(x=60,y=150)
vm=Button(text='v-',bg='green',fg='white',command=volm).place(x=30,y=150)
vp=Button(text='v+',bg='green',fg='white',command=volp).place(x=150,y=150)
app.mainloop()
