# Playlist Scraper

**Small Python Tool, to webscrape webradio playlists.**

*Idea:*

There are plenty of good webradio stations. But I want their songs in a spotify, deezer, etc. playlist without commercials. 

Unfortunately the playlist of the most stations is resettet every couple of hours.

The Python tool scrapes the songs, makes a proper data formatting, removes double values and saves an unique playlist per station.

This playlist is then ready to import to your favourite music-streaming-service.

## How To Use:

- add the URLs of your favourite webradio stations to `url_list.txt`

- I recommend using [Onlineradiobox.com](https://onlineradiobox.com) to get the playlists, because they have the total list of each day. Example: 

`https://onlineradiobox.com/de/starfmhell/playlist/1?cs=de.starfmhell

`

- run the main.py

- the program will

	- scrape the playlist data of all stations

	- adds all the new songs to a playlist file, named by the station

	- remove duplicates and sort the songs alphabetical

	- save the playlist files

	- write some statistics to the `stat.txt` (for instance, how many new songs were added each day)

*Comment:*

*Keep an eye on the stats ;-)*

*It's really astonishing, that after about 5 Days the playlist of the most radio stations will be freezed to a few hundred songs.*

*So after this 5 days, they just keep on playing the same stuff every day over and over again.*

** Happy Groundhog Day :D**
