A lot of the music I like is on YouTube, including many obscure remixes and covers. Now, I'm not a fan of forgetting things and YouTube can be pretty volatile, with videos getting removed.
Rather than downloading all the audio, I made a playlist scraper for the names. Runs once a day on PythonAnywhwre, collects the names into a database, helps me sleep at night.
- hebron 5y agoI've build the same thing for the same reason! Except in Ruby on Rails =) It also tells me the history of how the playlist has changed and posts to Slack whenever a song was added/removed from my playlists!
- staindk 5y agoThis sounds useful. You can schedule "takeouts" from takeout.google.com to run every 2 months for a year - but as far as I can tell they NEVER fire off more than the initial time. Very weird yet so very Google too.
