怎样批量下载虾米音乐收藏歌曲，批量提取豆瓣电台红心歌曲名称

批量下载虾米音乐

0人收藏此文章, 我要收藏发表于10个月前(2012-12-02 19:13) , 已有173次阅读 ，共1个评论

相信有很多朋友都在使用虾米听歌，某日想把收藏的歌曲下到手机里面，但是在虾米下载需虾币，囧。

于是google搜索方案之，发现一个不错的软件。 iDown——专门用于下载网络在线视频，在线音乐的小工具。

 

挺好用的一个小软件，直接把歌曲的地址复制到输入框，确定就开始下歌了。但是收藏的歌曲有上百首，一次拷贝一首，打开一个歌曲页面，拷贝地址出来，要死人的，重复的工作坚决要交给机器来做，于是写了一个js小脚本，用来在虾米收藏list页上抓取歌曲页面的地址。

因为虾米js库使用的jquery，所以直接用jquery写的脚本。

var arr = [];
$('.song_name a:nth-child(odd)').each(function(){
    arr.push(decodeURI(this.href))
});
console.log(arr.toString().replace(/\,/g,'\n'));

var arr = [];

$('.song_name a:nth-child(odd)').each(function(){

    arr.push(decodeURI(this.href));

});

console.log(arr.toString().replace(/\,/g,'\n'));

脚本使用条件：带有命令控制台的浏览器，Firefox（装firebug）,chrome,ie9等浏览器。

firefox使用方法：

按F12打开firebug页面，选中控制台Tab。

 

在下面输入框中输入上面命令，ctrl+回车，就会在上面输出当前页，歌曲的地址，拷贝出来扔到iDown的批量添加任务中去。

chrome和IE同理。chrome中输入命令的是‘console’面板。ie是‘控制台’面板。

1。登陆豆瓣

2。打开链接http://douban.fm/mine?type=liked 

3。按f12代码区选最右那个标签   或者   点击右上角> 工具 > javascript console

4。粘贴下列代码（注意把第一个6换成你的红心歌曲的总页数）

var tpage = 6; 
var page = 1; 
var n = 0; 
var songNum=0; 
$("div.copyright").html(""); 
for(page=1;page<=tpage;page++) { 
    n = (page - 1) * 9; 
    var url = "http://douban.fm/mine?start=" + n + "&type=liked"; 
    $.ajax({ 
        type:"GET" 
        ,url:url 
        ,async:false 
        ,dataType:"html" 
        , success:function(html){ 
            songNum+=$(html).find("div.song_info").length; 
            $(html).find("div.song_info").each(function(s) { 
                var d = ""; 
                d=$(this).find("p.song_title").first().text()+"-"+ 
                                $(this).find("p.performer").first().text()+"-"+ 
                                $(this).find("p.source>a").first().text()+"<br>"; 
$("div.copyright").html($("div.copyright").html()+d); 
            }); 
$("div.copyright").html($("div.copyright").html()+"此页面收集到歌曲："+$(html).find("div.song_info").length+"<br/><br/>"); 
        } 
    }); 
}

按回车

5。稍等一下，下拉页面，歌曲清单就出来了

Windows 7: Cannot Change Filename (Source and Destination filenames are the same)

This happened when I tried to remove the trailing space of filenames. 

For windows 7, they consider the filename unchanged after I remove the trailing space.

Therefore, the solution is: you not only remove the space, but also use a different name (say, add a '_' or '.' at the end of the filename).

Windows 8.1 no connection -- Dropbox connection failure

The solution is :
 use google DNS, enable public access of dropbox on windows firewall and restart.

How to use google DNS

Google Public DNS is the preferred DNS and is known for being fast, accurate and no restriction.

Step 1 – Navigate to Control Panel  >>  Network and Internet  >> Network and Sharing Center  >>  Change Adapter Settings.

Step 2 – Select the connection that you want to configure Google Public DNS.

For example:
– To change the settings for an Ethernet connection, right-click Local Area Connection, and click Properties.
– To change the settings for a wireless connection, right-click Wireless Network Connection, and click Properties.

Step 3 – Click on the Networking tab. Click on Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and then Properties.

Step 4 – Click on Advanced and then DNS tab.

If there is an existing IP address listed here, do write them down for future reference.

For Google Public DNS, select Use the following DNS server addresses:

Preferred DNS Server: 8.8.8.8

Alternate DNS Server: 8.8.4.4

Step 5 – Click OK and restart your network connection for changes to be applied.

You are now using Google Public DNS.
