# 🎵 MusicFetch **MusicFetch** is a smart command-line utility that finds music by searching **Lidarr** (your music collection manager) and **YouTube Music** at the same time, shows you the top hits in an interactive picker, and downloads/queues whatever you choose. It accepts: - A **free-form query**: an artist, an album, a track title, or combos like `"Artist - Title"` or `"Artist - Album"` (e.g. `"ODESZA - Bloom"`, `"Daft Punk"`, `"Discovery"`). - A **URL** (e.g. `"https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=..."` or a regular YouTube URL). Lidarr is tried first by default. If you pick a Lidarr album but **no indexer release is available**, MusicFetch automatically falls through to the top YouTube hit. YouTube downloads prefer **YouTube Music URLs** so album art and tags are correct. --- ## 🚀 Features - One unified picker showing the top hits from **Lidarr and YouTube together**, with matching keywords **bolded**. - Lidarr-first flow: pick an album → adds artist+album (monitored) → interactive indexer search → falls through to YouTube only if no release is found. - Accurate YouTube metadata via `ytmusicapi` (real artist / album / year / album art), with `yt-dlp` scraping as a fallback. - Explicit tag overrides on download so files are tagged from the chosen hit, not from scraped titles. - Non-interactive, YouTube-first, dry-run, quality, limit, and source-restriction flags. --- ## 📦 Dependencies & Installation ### 🐍 Python - Python 3.10+ - `requests` - `ytmusicapi` (recommended — accurate YouTube Music metadata) - `rich` (recommended — nicer picker table + bold keyword matching) ```bash pip install requests ytmusicapi rich ``` > **Note:** if you hit `ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'idna'` from > `requests`, repair it with: > ```bash > pip install --force-reinstall idna requests > ``` `ytmusicapi` and `rich` are optional — without them MusicFetch falls back to `yt-dlp` search scraping and a plain ANSI picker. ### 📼 External Tools - `yt-dlp` (audio download/extraction) and `ffmpeg` (for `-x` extraction / embedding). ```bash pip install -U yt-dlp sudo apt install ffmpeg # or your distro's equivalent ``` --- ## ⚙️ Configuration Set via environment variables: | Variable | Default | Purpose | |-------------------|-------------------------|----------------------------------| | `LIDARR_API_KEY` | *(required for Lidarr)* | Lidarr API key. | | `LIDARR_URL` | `http://localhost:8686` | Lidarr base URL. | | `MUSICFETCH_ROOT` | `/media/music` | Default output root folder. | ```bash export LIDARR_API_KEY="your-lidarr-api-key" ``` --- ## 🧑‍💻 Usage ```bash ./musicfetch [OPTIONS] QUERY... ``` ### Options | Flag | Description | |------|-------------| | `-n`, `--noninteractive` | Auto-pick the top hit (no prompt). | | `-s`, `--ytsearch` | Search/select YouTube first instead of Lidarr first. | | `-d`, `--dry-run` | Show every action without executing it. | | `-q`, `--quality {best,320,m4a,opus,flac}` | Audio quality/format (default `best`). | | `--limit N` | Hits per source (default 10). | | `--lidarr-only` | Skip YouTube. | | `--yt-only` | Skip Lidarr. | | `-o`, `--root PATH` | Output root folder (default `/media/music`). | | `--search-all` | Search all albums when adding an artist to Lidarr. | | `--debug` | Verbose output. | ### Examples ```bash # Interactive: combined Lidarr + YouTube picker ./musicfetch "ODESZA - Bloom" # Just an artist / just an album / just a title all work ./musicfetch "Daft Punk" ./musicfetch "Discovery" # YouTube first, auto-pick top hit ./musicfetch -s -n "Daft Punk - Harder Better Faster Stronger" # Dry run — see what would happen, change nothing ./musicfetch -d "ODESZA - Bloom" # YouTube only, lossless preferred ./musicfetch --yt-only -q flac "Bonobo - Kerala" # Download by URL (YouTube Music URL preferred for correct art) ./musicfetch "https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=xxxxxxxxxxx" ``` ### 📁 Output Structure ```text / ├── Artist Name/ │ ├── Album Name/ (managed by Lidarr) │ └── youtube/ (yt-dlp downloads / fallbacks) ``` --- ## ❓ Troubleshooting - **No Lidarr hits / "LIDARR_API_KEY not set":** export your key and confirm `LIDARR_URL` is reachable. - **Wrong album art from YouTube:** install `ytmusicapi` so MusicFetch can resolve proper YouTube Music URLs and metadata. - **`yt-dlp` errors:** update with `yt-dlp -U`; ensure `ffmpeg` is installed for extraction/embedding. - **`idna` import error:** `pip install --force-reinstall idna requests`. - **Permission denied writing files:** ensure the output root exists and is writable (`-o`/`--root` or `MUSICFETCH_ROOT`). --- ## 🛠️ Contributing PRs welcome.
