GROOVESHARK.COM HAS BEEN TERMINATED ON APRIL 30, 2015
Unofficial grooveshark API ruby library gives your ability to search and stream songs, manage playlists, media library and favorites. API was discovered using http proxy and does not pretend to be always valid due to website API changes.
Install gem from rubygems:
gem install grooveshark
Or add this line to your Gemfile:
gem "grooveshark"
And install bundle:
bundle install
First, you'll need to create a session. Grooveshark's session is a regular PHP session with expiration date of 7 days.
require 'grooveshark'
client = Grooveshark::Client.newNow we can find some songs:
songs = client.search_songs('Nirvana')
songs.each do |s|
s.id # Song ID
s.name # Song name
s.artist # Song artist name
s.album # Song album name
s.duration # Song duration in seconds (not always present, 0 by default)
endWe got collection of songs. Check Song object for additional attributes. In order to stream song we need to get the authorization
song = songs.first
url = client.get_song_url(song)Given url is valid only for current session and cannot be shared or stored permanently. Also, it probably violates terms of service.
To get your user account you need to provide username and password. If username or password is not valid InvalidAuthentication exception will be raised.
client = Grooveshark::Client.new
begin
user = client.login('username', 'password')
rescue InvalidAuthentication
puts "Oooops! Wrong username or password"
endGet all user playlists:
user.playlists.each do |p|
p.id # Playlist ID
p.name # Playlist name
p.about # Playlist description (empty by default)
endGet user playlist:
playlist = user.get_playlist(PLAYLIST_ID)Get all playlist songs:
playlist = user.get_playlist(ID)
playlist.load_songs
songs = playlist.songsRename existing playlist:
playlist = user.get_playlist(ID)
playlist.rename('NEW NAME', 'NEW DESCRIPTION')Delete existing user playlist
playlist = user.get_playlist(ID)
playlist.deleteCreate a new playlist. First parameter is mandatory, description and songs are optional. For songs you can provide array of Song objects or array of IDs.
songs = client.search_songs('Joe Satriani')
p = user.create_playlist('NAME', 'DESCRIPTION', songs)Get user favorite songs:
songs = user.favoritesAdd song to favorites:
user.add_favorite(song) # Song object or song IDRemove song from favorites:
user.remove_favorite(song) # Song object or song IDGet top broadcasts:
client.top_broadcasts.each do |b|
b.id # Broadcast ID
b.name # Broadcast Name
endTo reload the current status of the broadcast (e.g. currently playing song,
next song, etc.), call reload_status method:
broadcast.reload_statusGet the current and next song for a broadcast:
current_song = broadcast.active_song
next_song = broadcast.next_songCheck whether the broadcast is currently playing:
if broadcast.is_playing
# Do something e.g. get the currently playing song.
endGet all songs from library as a collection of Song objects
songs = user.libraryAdd songs to library:
songs = client.search_songs('The Beatles')
user.library_add(songs)Remove selected songs from library. Unfortunately mass-deletion is not supported by Grooveshark API. You will have to delete each song via separate method call.
song = user.library.first # Lest pick a first song in the library
user.library_remove(song)Get all recently active users:
client.recent_usersFind user by ID:
client.get_user_by_id('ID')Find user by username:
client.get_user_by_username('username')Fetch recent user activity:
user = client.get_user_by_username('user')
user.feedRun test suite:
bundle exec rake
