An express soundcloud downloader module
In your project root do:
npm install soundcloudr --production --save###setClientId(clientId) Sets the Soundcloud client id for the session.
###getStreamUrl(url, callback) Given a valid Soundcloud track url, this will give the direct stream url for that track.
###download(url, res, callback) Given a valid Soundcloud track url, this will download the direct stream url and pipe it to the Express response object causing a download of the track to happen in the browser.
Without Express
var soundcloudr = require('soundcloudr');
var fs = require('fs');
soundcloudr.setClientId(fs.readFile('clientId.txt', 'UTF-8'));
soundcloudr.getStreamUrl('https://soundcloud.com/annie-mac-presents/free-music-monday-jakwob-fade', function(err, url) {
if(err) {
return console.log(err.message);
}
// Do something with the stream url
console.log('My stream URL is: ' + url);
});With Express
var express = require('express');
var app = express();
var soundcloudr = require('soundcloudr');
var fs = require('fs');
soundcloudr.setClientId(fs.readFile('clientId.txt', 'UTF-8'));
app.get('/download', function(request, response, next) {
var url = request.query.url;
soundcloudr.download(url, response, function(err) {
if(err) {
response.status(err.status).json({
message: err.message
});
}
});
