PyLyrics provides various lyrics.wikia.com methods by using many layers of Abstraction. Firstly there are 3 core classes which define most of the return values of PyLyrics:
- Track: Returned in Album Track searches and contains methods to get lyrics of the track
- Album: Returned from Artist album searches and contains methods to get tracks
- Artist: Returned from Artist searches and contains methods to get Albums
Some examples are shown below on usage:
from PyLyrics import *
albums = PyLyrics.getAlbums(singer='Eminem')
for a in albums:
print (a) #Each album printed is a Album ObjectYou need to pass a Album Object into the function. This step is required to prevent errors and to ensure result
from PyLyrics import *
albums = PyLyrics.getAlbums(singer='Eminem')
myalbum = albums[4] #Select your album based on Index
tracks = myalbum.tracks() #or PyLyrics.getTracks(myalbum)
for track in tracks:
print (track) #Each track is a track object
print (track.getLyrics()) #Get the lyricsThere are two ways to do this. Either you can pass the name of the singer and the song name to the main function or use the bound method getLyrics() of the track object received as shown in the previous example.
from PyLyrics import *
print(PyLyrics.getLyrics('Taylor Swift','Blank Space')) #Print the lyrics directlyFixed a lot encoding errors and inconsistency
