Downloading replays from TMX #2

Closed Czechball closed 4 years ago

Hey, it's me again...

In your dataset description, you mentioned that the file train_data.pkl contains rougly 3000 tech tracks from TMX. My question is, how did you get them? Is there any API available or did you just write a script and parsed the HTML?

donadigo commented 4 years ago

I wrote a browser extension that put a "Download All" button on the site and I just set the filters (tech, 1 min, 100 tracks per page) and scrubbed through ~30 pages. If you want I can provide this too.

i'm interfering to the discussion, i think this would be interesting to share this browser extension to the community and particularly to the site maintainer (eyebo or ozon i think but i'm not sure)? You might want to concact him (the owner) on discord or else so this can be added to the website... link to the discord of the website EDIT: link and typo

That's nice, I thought it would be a python script using beautiful soup or something like that... Mind sharing the extension? I would love to try it.

And yea, I think that it's a good idea to also share it with the TMX community.
