/get_beatmaps beatmapsets with over 500 beatmaps #251

Closed Sandalot closed 5 years ago

This beatmapset has 534 beatmaps https://osu.ppy.sh/beatmapsets/372271 If I was to make an API request for this set I'll only get 500 results. Is there an elegant way to request the next block of 500?

I'm making a beatmap "cache" that emulates official mirrors like https://bm8.ppy.sh/ and others with identical functionally. The main goal is to reduce the bandwidth demand at events like a lan party where speeds can be unbearable at times. I use this API to compare my caches database for updated maps and when relevant use https://osu.ppy.sh/web/maps/ for a more efficient use of bandwidth. Being able to fetch all the beatmaps in a set is important for this use case.

inb4 there is some way to already do this and I'm just stupid

Rest assured such sets will not appear too often. I'm adding a hard limit to difficulties per set to avoid this.

For the time being I'd just ignore such cases.
