Name output file manually about scdl

[flyingrub]

this mean that every songs downloaded will have the same filename...
your script can use the scdl stdout output to check the filename.
exemple:

fly@Minotoor ~ $ scdl -l https://soundcloud.com/phanton/phanton-derpinas-short-video
Soundcloud Downloader
Downloading to /home/fly...

Found a track
Downloading Phanton - Derpinas (Short Video Edit)
100% [......................................................] 3719835 / 3719835
Settings tags...

Phanton - Derpinas (Short Video Edit).mp3 Downloaded.

Phanton - Derpinas (Short Video Edit).mp3 is the filename

Good point.

This is what I currently do:

scdl -l <track> | grep "Downloaded" | rev | cut -c 13- | rev;

Which is painful. Could use awk or something I guess.

Maybe if the trackname was alone on the final line it would be ok, but then if there are multiple files it would still be a problem...

Anyway

I will try something later ;)

[flyingrub]

just something : why don't you just check for track in your folder and then use them in your script ?

You mean wait for a file to be created then act on it? I do not know how to do that in bash, but I will look into it.

for f in *.mp3
do
    #do something with the filename $f.
done
