Download / Sync library from iBroadcast on Linux machines

Project description

iBroadcast Download / Sync

This project was born from a need to download my library from iBroadcast onto my linux machine. Only the OSX and Windows app support this functionality. This project uses the existing ibroadcast-python library and extends the iBroadcast class to add a download_library method.

In addition to using this as a Python library, it also has a small CLI to help automate doing library downloads.

Usage

This project can be used as both a Python library and CLI.

CLI

Installation

pipx

pipx is available for Linux, OSX, and Windows. Follow the install instructions first for pipx then the following:

pipx install ibroadcast-dl

Usage

To use the CLI, run the ibroadcast-dl command:

ibroadcast-dl --username ibroadcast@email.tld ~/Music/

This will open a progress bar - if your library is large it'll take several hours to sync. If you connection is slow try turing down the number of tracks it downloads at a time (defaults 50) to something around 10:

ibroadcast-dl -u ibroadcast@email.tld -x 10 ~/Music/

Python Library

The module has the same method sigrnatures and usage as the ibroadcast-python library with the addition of a download_library method.

>>> import ibroadcastdl
>>> ib = ibroadcastdl.iBroadcastDL("email", "password")
>>> download_dir = "./Music"
>>> offset = 0
>>> while offset < len(ib.tracks):
...     ib.download_library(offset, 50, download_dir)
...     offset = offset + 50

This will download the entire library 50 tracks at a time.
