nvm my comment i added python-pathvalidate because it gave me such error.. dont know if that needed , pip install soundcloud-v2 did work for me.

i added python-soundcloud-git and python-validate

now i get :

from soundcloud import (BasicAlbumPlaylist, BasicTrack, MiniTrack, SoundCloud, ImportError: cannot import name 'BasicAlbumPlaylist' from 'soundcloud' (/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/soundcloud/init.py)

now i am lost ion a depency i gues ? above it was missing rest idk..

@M0Rf30

Thanks for cleaning up the PKGBUILD. I've tested and can also confirm that it works.

@m040601: You could easily have done it yourself, but I've done it for you. You are welcome.

I am also looking for a soundcloud downloader that works similar to youtube-dl.

This tool seems worth testing.

I was trying this PKGBUILD and stopped when it tried to pull python2. It's not a dependency, it's a make dependency. So I could remove it later. But still, I dont want to see any hint of python2 on my system. So I stopped.

It seems the "culprit" is python-fudge" which wants to pull python2-setuptools:

Now python-fudge is completely abandoned and was last modified in 2018:

I understand very little of python and maintaining PKGBUILDS. I read in the README mention of ffmpeg required. And I see in the source repo "setup.py" file:

    install_requires=[
        'docopt',
        'mutagen',
        'termcolor',
        'requests',
        'clint'

So I dont understand why fudge, certif, simplejson and python-soundcloud-git are needed in this PKGBUILD:

Depends On      : python-certifi  python-clint  python-docopt  python-fudge
                  python-mutagen  python-simplejson  python-soundcloud-git
                  python-termcolor  python-requests

Is it really the case ?

So is there any chance the maintainer of this PKGBUILD could check out this issue, and make it so that python2 is not needed, not even as a make dependency ? Check the source/upstream to see if it is still really needed ? Replace python fudge ? Adopt it ?

Thanks in advance.

this tool still works and it's great

Hi,

You're missing a space in the current PKGBUILD. Here's the diff:

diff --git a/PKGBUILD b/PKGBUILD
index 05b0988..7be3b13 100644
--- a/PKGBUILD

 package() {

+    cd "$srcdir/$pkgname"
     python3 setup.py install --root="$pkgdir"
 }

As is, the build fails on my system (with pikaur):

/home/dllud/.cache/pikaur/build/soundcloud-dl-git/PKGBUILD: line 30: cd/home/dllud/.cache/pikaur/build/soundcloud-dl-git/src/soundcloud-dl-git: No such file or directory
