hypembot
Manually downloading songs from The Hype Machine too difficult? Wish you could
download that song from Soundcloud? Since the browser stores songs in its cache
in order to play them, simply start hypembot
and it will monitor the cache,
copying mp3's into your Music directory.
How does it work?
The program monitors your browser cache using kqueue
and once a 'quality' mp3
file has been stable in the cache for 5 minutes, hypembot
copies out of the
cache for you.
Install
$ [sudo] gem install hypembot
$ hypembot # make sure to set ulimit -n 4096 or something similarily high
Use -s
or --source
to specify the path to where the music is cached, and
-d
or --directory
to specify where you want the files copied to.
Works on Mac OSX Lion. Uses kqueue by default.
