Python HypeMachine script downloader

Primary LanguagePython

#Hypemachine Python Downloader hypme.py is a Python script to bulk download songs from HypeMachine. The script is fairly simple to use.

I try to keep this up to date to make note of how HypeMachine is delivering their content so others may learn! I normally document all my investigations on my personal blog at blog.fzakaria.com. I appreciate all feedback, criticism and help!

##How To Use

  1. Make sure you have Python installed (2.7~)

  2. Make sure you have BeautifulSoup installed. I haven't figured out how to deploy with dependencies yet

  3. Open hypeme.py and modify the script to your choosing!

    AREA_TO_SCRAPE: Set this variable to what you'd like to scrape. i.e. popular or a username.

    NUMBER_OF_PAGES: Number of pages to scrape. For initial download you can set this number really high and later just cron job the script set to 1.

  4. Launch the script python hypeme.py

##Extension (compared to original fork)

  1. Artist and title of the song are added to the meta-information of the file.

  2. Album art is fetched from Google (first image found on google images) and added to the file.
