Metadata scraper RateYourMusic reviews.

pip install rateyourmusic

Alternatively, clone directly from master to run with the freshest bugs:

pip install git+git://github.com/fortes/rateyourmusic.git@master

>>> import rateyourmusic
>>> review = rateyourmusic.getAlbumReviewForRateYourMusicUrl('https://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/edan/beauty_and_the_beat/')
>>> print(review.average_rating)
3.72

There is one test, you can try it:

python -m unittest

• This was a quick hack for a small project, it may or may not work for you
• Not all sites like having scrapers, use at your own risk
• RateYourMusic/Sonemic is taking forever to create an API so this is the next best thing
