README

getsong

This is a simple library that utilizes the rylio/ytdl YouTube downloader and ffmpeg to get almost any mp3 of a song that you want to listen to. I wrote this so I could download mp3s of my favorite Spotify playlists.

Install

go get -u github.com/schollz/getsong/...

Usage

The aim of this library to have a low (or zero) false positive rate, so it works best when the entered title + artist are spelled correctly.

Use as a program

$ getsong 'Getting in Tune' 'The Who'

if err == nil {
