#match.audio [![Circle CI](https://circleci.com/gh/kudos/match.audio.svg?style=svg)](https://circleci.com/gh/kudos/match.audio)
Make sharing music from subscription services better. Give us one link (Rdio, Spotify or Google Music) and we'll match it with other services and give you back a link with all of them.
Make sharing from music services better. We match links from Rdio, Spotify, Deezer, Beats Music, Google Music and iTunes and give you back a link with all of them.
You'll need to have Rdio API keys (`RDIO_API_KEY` and `RDIO_API_SHARED`) and Google credentials (`GOOGLE_EMAIL` and `GOOGLE_PASSWORD`) and provide them via environment variables. Google doesn't provide an API for Play Music, hence this terrible hackery.
Some of the services require keys/credentials be passed via environment variables:
Rdio: `RDIO_API_KEY` and `RDIO_API_SHARED`
Beats Music: `BEATS_KEY` and `BEATS_SECRET`
Google Play Music: `GOOGLE_EMAIL` and `GOOGLE_PASSWORD`
Google doesn't provide an API for Play Music, hence this `GOOGLE_PASSWORD` awfulness.
If you don't provide credentials, it will simply disable support for that service. Spotify, Deezer and iTunes don't need any auth.
To get started, first `npm install` and then run the app with `npm start` or tests with `npm test`.
This is in super early development, has no design and only supports albums right now.
This is in super early development and is incapable of handling getting dugg, never mind hacker news.
On the immediate todo list:
* Use album release year for additional sanity check on matches
* Maybe drop everything from the first special character in album names to improve matches **after** failing to get a good match
* Handle expected and unexpected errors better than the current crash-fest
* Use promises for service searches and do them simultaneously
* Add some kind of persistence or caching so it could take a pummeling and not get me banned from the various services
