soundcloud.py

Python wrapper for some of the internal v2 SoundCloud API (read/GET only methods). Does not require an API key.

NOTE: This is NOT the official SoundCloud developer API

SoundCloud is not accepting any more application registration requests ¹ so I made this library so developers can use SoundCloud's internal API for their projects.

Documentation

https://7x11x13.xyz/soundcloud.py

Installation

pip install soundcloud-v2

Example

from soundcloud import SoundCloud

sc = SoundCloud(auth_token="auth_token")
assert sc.is_client_id_valid()
assert sc.is_auth_token_valid()
me = sc.get_user_by_username("7x11x13")
assert me.permalink == "7x11x13"

Notes on auth_token

Some methods require authentication in the form of an OAuth2 access token. You can find your token in your browser cookies for SoundCloud under the name "oauth_token". A new token will be generated each time you log out and log back in.

Notes on **kwargs

All API methods have a **kwargs argument which you can use to pass extra, undocumented arguments to the SoundCloud v2 API in case I missed some parameter which you find useful. If this is the case, feel free to create an issue or pull request to document the missing argument.
