Tabscraper

Python code for scraping the search results and chords/tabs off Ultimate Guitar.

The user provides a search as a command line argument, which is used in a GET request to Ultimate Guitar. A table of the search results is printed to the terminal, and the user then selects the tab they want. Lastly, the tab is printed as plain text to the terminal.

Very ugly spagetti code, but it works, and you can stay away from all the flashing autoplays and ads on Ultimate Guitar.

Usage:

python tabber.py blah blah

or, to write the tab to a text file filename.txt,

python tabber.py blah blah -w filename

where a suited filename is chosen if filename is omitted.

Ex python tabber.py queens of the stone age no one knows -w

To do:

  • Somehow add info abt capo and tuning
  • Comments
  • Bass+ukulele players
  • +++++++++
