bandcamp-dl

install

1. download Deno from here
2. run deno install --name=bandcamp-dl --allow-net --allow-read --allow-write --no-check https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RubenArtmann/bandcamp-dl/main/mod.ts
3. you might need to check if your path is configured correctly (alternatively you can directly use it with deno run --allow-net --allow-read --allow-write --no-check https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RubenArtmann/bandcamp-dl/main/mod.ts)

usage

run bandcamp-dl <args> <bandcamp_urls>

• where <args> can be:
  • -d=<integer>
    • delay in milliseconds between requests
    • default: 300
  • -o=<pattern>
    • specifies the path and filename of each track (extension is always .mp3)
    • default: ./downloads/{artist}/{album}/{track}
    • {<label|artist|album|track>} gets replaced by the specific property of the file being downloaded
  • -s
    • enables slugification of filenames
    • use if your filesystem does not support unicode (or you do not want it)
• where <bandcamp_urls> can be any number of:
  • https://<label>.bandcamp.com/artists (download whole label)
  • https://<artist>.bandcamp.com (download whole artist)
  • https://<artist>.bandcamp.com/album/<album> (download whole album)
  • https://<artist>.bandcamp.com/track/<track> (download track)
  • append #album=<album> so it knows the album of the file, otherwise {album} may be unknown
  • append #label=<label> so it knows the label of the file, otherwise {label} may be unknown

(if it crashes just rerun and it should skip already downloaded tracks)
