Pulling Likes

Open npfister13 opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Would it be possible to implement the ability to scrape info from a user's Likes? I don't want to download thousands of songs, just scrape the information for the artists that show in the likes, the types of music, etc.

I'll look into this.

I'm currently looking to make likes downloadable so I have a little bit of experience with retrieving the likes.

First you want to resolve the profile you want the likes from to get their user_id. This is needed because to actually retrieve their likes you have to use their user_id. (this took me a few hours to find out)

After that it's as simple as hitting this enpoint (you might want to change the limit query parameter): https://api-v2.soundcloud.com/users/<user_id>/likes?limit=50&client_id=<client_id>

@3jackdaws, can this be implemented?
