lyricsAPI

An open source node.js module to get lyrics from a song

Getting started

Main code

var LyricsApi = require('lyricsapi');
var lyricsApiInstance = new LyricsApi([config (String path)][, debug (boolean)]);
lyricsApiInstance.getLyrics(<title>,<author>,function(lyricsData) {
    //Do whatever you want
    //lyricsData is an array[Strophe number][Verse number] or an empty array if no result found
});

That's all you need by default to get lyrics from a song. A basic example is available on github here : https://github.com/EyZox/lyricsAPI/tree/master/examples

Create your own lyrics-modules

• First you have to create your own google custom search engine to include result from the lyrics website provider you want implement.
• Create a js file in modules directory, look at already implemented lyrics-module for minimum requirement.
• Edit config file, see above.
