Hi guys, I have made a cross-platform (Windows, Linux, macOS) command line tool/downloader for automatically downloading songs from OCRemix, which can be run once, or on a schedule to always be in sync with the latest remixes. The application & source code are on GitHub, and I would love to have your feedback if you have any suggestions for improvements:

  • Liontamer changed the title to OC ReMix downloader tool/script

Some things I would suggest, as it seems Liontamer has already fixed in the title, is using the correct verbiage for "OC ReMix" rather than "OCRemix."

Other than that I'd say checking against the md5 has provided on the site and giving the option of alternative mirrors instead of just hammering one.

Given that your app seems to strictly just check against the RSS Feed, the md5 stuff may be a bit difficult.

Thanks a lot @Ramaniscence, I was not aware of the correct verbiage, and have corrected all references in the project (hopefully it is correct, please correct me if it is still wrong). MD5 checksum verification should not be too difficult to implement, so I will look into that. Using the alternative mirrors in a random order is also a reasonable idea, currently it only uses the mirrors if the first one fails.

Regarding the RSS Feed. I only use it for fetching the latest song number, then the script fetches each song page separately, since the URL format is fixed.

UPDATE:
I have now implemented MD5 checksum verification, and shuffled the order of used alternative mirrors to distribute load on servers. The new version is available on the site.
