        maybe my company's firewall? ;)
      • 2014-09-03 24634, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        you can try (from the cpan shell) running: o conf init urllist, and you should have to go through the process of choosing mirrors
      • 2014-09-03 24642, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        firewall/proxy was going to be my next question
      • 2014-09-03 24640, 2014

      • Totti
        how can i exit the current process of it trying to download?
      • 2014-09-03 24651, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        control + c is the most common way
      • 2014-09-03 24623, 2014

      • Totti
        like in inux
      • 2014-09-03 24624, 2014

      • Totti
        tried that
      • 2014-09-03 24633, 2014

      • Totti
        ok worked
      • 2014-09-03 24650, 2014

      • Totti
        trying to fetch some mirrors
      • 2014-09-03 24659, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        if that fails too, then, bahhhh
      • 2014-09-03 24626, 2014

      • Totti
        what are the packages needed? in the readme i got here...URI, JSON, LWP::Simple, JSON::XS
      • 2014-09-03 24633, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        those
      • 2014-09-03 24636, 2014

      • Totti
        but on your github it says more
      • 2014-09-03 24644, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        eh?
      • 2014-09-03 24611, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        LWP::Simple, JSON, JSON::XS, CARP, HTML::Query, File::Temp
      • 2014-09-03 24616, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        where did you see a different list?
      • 2014-09-03 24632, 2014

      • Totti
        in the link from musicbrainz
      • 2014-09-03 24649, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        err
      • 2014-09-03 24651, 2014

      • Totti
      • 2014-09-03 24658, 2014

      • Totti
        and then click on the last link
      • 2014-09-03 24608, 2014

      • Totti
      • 2014-09-03 24616, 2014

      • Totti
        and in the readme in there
      • 2014-09-03 24620, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        yes, but that page doesn't say anything specific to beatport
      • 2014-09-03 24641, 2014

      • Totti
        but inthe readme that is in there when i do the ZIP download
      • 2014-09-03 24642, 2014

      • Totti
        it says
      • 2014-09-03 24644, 2014

      • Totti
        # Beatport Parser # ## Requirements ## * Perl >= 5.10 * [URI](http://search.cpan.org/~gaas/URI-1.59/URI.pm) * [LWP::Simple](http://search.cpan.org/~gaas/libwww-… * [JSON](http://search.cpan.org/~makamaka/JSON-2.53/… >= 2.0 (JSON::XS generally recommended, additionally.)

      • 2014-09-03 24641, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        that's the file you're looking at
      • 2014-09-03 24645, 2014

      • Totti
        i should be
      • 2014-09-03 24648, 2014

      • Totti
        but then the link is wrong
      • 2014-09-03 24619, 2014

      • Totti
        if you click on that link from musibrainz as described above
      • 2014-09-03 24623, 2014

      • Totti
        it takes you to this site
      • 2014-09-03 24625, 2014

      • Totti
      • 2014-09-03 24630, 2014

      • Totti
        then i download the zip
      • 2014-09-03 24648, 2014

      • Totti
        once downloaded I open the README.md it contains
      • 2014-09-03 24655, 2014

      • Totti
        and it says differently
      • 2014-09-03 24606, 2014

      • Totti
        so there is a mismatch ;)
      • 2014-09-03 24613, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        what, no
      • 2014-09-03 24619, 2014

      • Totti
        yesssss
      • 2014-09-03 24623, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        there is a README in every single sub directory. beatport, bandcamp, and file parsers
      • 2014-09-03 24634, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        and the link on musicbrainz takes you to the single repository for all three, not beatport specifically
      • 2014-09-03 24651, 2014

      • Totti
        check it out
      • 2014-09-03 24653, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        there is also a README in the root of the repository which tells you to look at the specific subdirectory relevant to what you're trying to do
      • 2014-09-03 24603, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        I already did
      • 2014-09-03 24612, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        what you pasted ^^^ is exactly what's already in the repository
      • 2014-09-03 24642, 2014

      • Totti
        then i would say you change the content of the README.md in the root
      • 2014-09-03 24645, 2014

      • Totti
        directory
      • 2014-09-03 24650, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        to what exactly?
      • 2014-09-03 24654, 2014

      • Totti
        if you open it
      • 2014-09-03 24657, 2014

      • Totti
        i can send it to you
      • 2014-09-03 24600, 2014

      • Totti
        :D
      • 2014-09-03 24612, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        I am so confused.
      • 2014-09-03 24622, 2014

      • Totti
        sorry
      • 2014-09-03 24623, 2014

      • Totti
        ok
      • 2014-09-03 24638, 2014

      • Totti
        do me favour
      • 2014-09-03 24640, 2014

      • Totti
        ;)
      • 2014-09-03 24647, 2014

      • Totti
      • 2014-09-03 24651, 2014

      • yanggao joined the channel
      • 2014-09-03 24653, 2014

      • Totti
        and then click download ZIP
      • 2014-09-03 24606, 2014

      • Totti
        it will have 7 items in that zip
      • 2014-09-03 24616, 2014

      • Totti
        then please open the README.md file
      • 2014-09-03 24619, 2014

      • Totti
        and you will see
      • 2014-09-03 24623, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        question:
      • 2014-09-03 24636, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        after you unzipped, did you get the beatport/bandcamp/file-parsers directories?
      • 2014-09-03 24644, 2014

      • Totti
        nope
      • 2014-09-03 24649, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        then this is your problem
      • 2014-09-03 24658, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        what you should get looks exactly how it's represented on GitHub
      • 2014-09-03 24607, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        you should get a README, and those 3 directories
      • 2014-09-03 24617, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        in those 3 directories will be at least one perl script and another parser specific READMe
      • 2014-09-03 24632, 2014

      • Totti
        i just get one folder zipped
      • 2014-09-03 24633, 2014

      • Totti
        MusicBrainz-Track-Parsers-master
      • 2014-09-03 24640, 2014

      • Totti
        and below 7 files
      • 2014-09-03 24653, 2014

      • Totti
        i am sure i am not the only one ;)
      • 2014-09-03 24655, 2014

      • Totti
        anyway
      • 2014-09-03 24602, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        no, you're not the only one
      • 2014-09-03 24609, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        but whatever your unzipping utility is is terrible
      • 2014-09-03 24613, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        and isn't preserving paths/sub-folders
      • 2014-09-03 24614, 2014

      • Totti
        7zip!
      • 2014-09-03 24628, 2014

      • Totti
        hold on
      • 2014-09-03 24630, 2014

      • Totti
        actually it does
      • 2014-09-03 24655, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
      • 2014-09-03 24602, 2014

      • Totti
        strange
      • 2014-09-03 24613, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        note the indentions indicating hierarchy
      • 2014-09-03 24625, 2014

      • Totti
        ok seems to be the case
      • 2014-09-03 24651, 2014

      • Totti
        is there a way how i can download the packages and install them myself?
      • 2014-09-03 24626, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
      • 2014-09-03 24631, 2014

      • Totti
        i will try to log in over our guestwlan
      • 2014-09-03 24633, 2014

      • Totti
        just a sec
      • 2014-09-03 24648, 2014

      • Totti joined the channel
      • 2014-09-03 24654, 2014

      • Totti
        am back
      • 2014-09-03 24640, 2014

      • Totti
        it works!
      • 2014-09-03 24643, 2014

      • Totti
        yeah
      • 2014-09-03 24646, 2014

      • Totti
        one step closer
      • 2014-09-03 24646, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        hooray
      • 2014-09-03 24658, 2014

      • Totti
        well i pressed ctrl + c too early
      • 2014-09-03 24605, 2014

      • Totti
        and it got truncated :D
      • 2014-09-03 24615, 2014

      • Totti
        anyway
      • 2014-09-03 24626, 2014

      • Totti
        i guess now i will download all the necessary packages
      • 2014-09-03 24642, 2014

      • Totti
        and then i should be able to run beatport.pl plus URL?
      • 2014-09-03 24647, 2014

      • Totti
        and where do i get the output?
      • 2014-09-03 24632, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        perl beatport.pl (paste beatport URL)
      • 2014-09-03 24647, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        it's supposed to open your browser, I think
      • 2014-09-03 24653, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        to be honest, on windows, I actually have no idea
      • 2014-09-03 24636, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        oh, hahahaha. it's only going to do magic on Mac OS X. Not Windows, Not Linux. nice one Jason
      • 2014-09-03 24604, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        wow, uhhhh. this is not good
      • 2014-09-03 24614, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        it will pretty much be worthless on Windows and Linux. niceeeeeeeeeeeeee
      • 2014-09-03 24620, 2014

      • Totti
        so all this for nothing? :D
      • 2014-09-03 24624, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        hold on
      • 2014-09-03 24625, 2014

      • Totti
        why worthless? ;)
      • 2014-09-03 24638, 2014

      • Totti
        so it is now fetching the URI
      • 2014-09-03 24648, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
      • 2014-09-03 24658, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        worthless because the HTML file the script generates gets cleaned up when the script exits
      • 2014-09-03 24608, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        and I'm fairly certain "open" will not work on windows (start should, though)
      • 2014-09-03 24627, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        so you will have a 5 second window to open the HTML file, but I have no idea where the temporary files folder is on Windows
      • 2014-09-03 24634, 2014

      • Totti
        ill be your guinea pig
      • 2014-09-03 24647, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        you've come this far. it'd be rude for you not to be
      • 2014-09-03 24610, 2014

      • Totti
        according to your readme.md i dont need URI? :)
      • 2014-09-03 24627, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        uhh
      • 2014-09-03 24640, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        (-‸ლ)
      • 2014-09-03 24646, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        URI is for the bandcamp parser. beatport does not use it, no
      • 2014-09-03 24647, 2014

      • Totti
        haha
      • 2014-09-03 24652, 2014

      • Totti
        easy
      • 2014-09-03 24659, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        of course, the beatport readme doesn't list it either
      • 2014-09-03 24604, 2014

      • Totti
        now got json
      • 2014-09-03 24606, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        where did...
      • 2014-09-03 24614, 2014

      • Totti
        i didnt check the right one initially remember ;)
      • 2014-09-03 24619, 2014

      • Totti
        but on the right track now
      • 2014-09-03 24631, 2014

      • Totti
        what makes the greasemonkey script so difficult?
      • 2014-09-03 24637, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        I don't know Javascript.
      • 2014-09-03 24652, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        haven't bothered to learn. (I really should)
      • 2014-09-03 24636, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        do me a favor. open a new command prompt and run: perl -e 'print $^O;'
      • 2014-09-03 24659, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        does it say MSWin32 ? (note, does it say /exactly/ that, case specific matters)
      • 2014-09-03 24630, 2014

      • Totti
        just a sec
      • 2014-09-03 24653, 2014

      • Totti
        perl -e 'print $^O;'

        cant dfind string terminator
      • 2014-09-03 24605, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        uhh
      • 2014-09-03 24651, 2014

      • Totti
        maybe the semicolon afterwards?
      • 2014-09-03 24659, 2014

      • VxJasonxV
        no
