Delete old playlist when sync second time

[Vadimrozov]

Hello, team,
I want to sync "new music friday" from Spotify each week. pyportify does it great, except do a new playlist with the same name each time (like two "new music friday" after two syncs). Can pyportify delete playlist with the same name before creating new one?

I would not like to see this happen. PYPortify should not be deleting anything from my account.

Just delete the old one before you sync the new one each week. I do this every week. (Twice, actually, Discover Weekly and New Music Friday). It's not that hard and much more secure.

Thanks for the answer

I'm not a developer, just another user weighing in on a proposed feature. The developers may have an entirely different viewpoint.

Please don't close this. I think that would be a nice feature to have.

Maybe is should be wrapped in an optional flag or option, admittedly, so the user gets control of deletions being allowed.

--replace-existing, or something like that.

Re-opened!
--replace-existing - will be great! Don't forget to add it on web client also :)
