Why would you do this?

To see if I could

For a more detailed answer, since a lot of people have asked:

I had been using terraform for a couple months. I found the terraform-provider-aws docs to be kinda disappointing so I frequented the codebase to see how it handled the data I provided.

From there, I got familiar with the CRUD style interface that terraform provides, and decided to implement one myself. I had already been familiar with Spotify as a fairly large API that I could try to wrap, so that was a natural choice for me to pick.

Nice one, might be good to throw in the top of the readme as a bit of an intro

We're always looking for ideas on ways to improve. If you have some themes, let us know!

@YakDriver I am now full time GCP engineer, and found with the AWS docs, there was a clear lack of examples talking about the code that you'd just told us how to use.
