Getting Started

Installation

Install lyricsfandom package from PyPi:

pip install lyricsfandom

Or from GitHub:

git clone https://github.com/arthurdjn/scrape-lyricwiki

Usage

You can use the simplified API to look for lyrics and music.

Example:

from lyricsfandom import LyricWiki

# Connect to the API
wiki = LyricWiki()
# Search for an artist. `LyricsFandom` is not case sensitive.
artist = wiki.search_artist('london grammar')
artist

Output:

Artist: London Grammar

Then, you can search for albums too.

Example:

# Search for an album
album = wiki.search_album('london grammar', 'if you wait')
album

Output:

London Grammar: Album "If You Wait" (2013), Songs: 17

Finally, you can scrape for songs.

Example:

# Search for an album
song = wiki.search_song('london grammar', 'strong')
song

Output:

London Grammar: "Strong" from Album "If You Wait" (2013)

…and scrape lyrics.

Example:

# Search for an album
lyrics = song.get_lyrics()
print(lyrics)

Output:

Excuse me for a while
While I'm wide eyed
And I'm so damn caught in the middle
I've excused you for a while
While I'm wide eyed
And I'm so down caught in the middle

And a lion, a lion roars
Would you not listen?
If a child, a child cries
Would you not forgive them?
