NOTE: If you want to download the entire back catalogue of songs, please check the torrent page at OC ReMix instead to save on time/bandwidth, and continue from there.

   dotnet tool install -g dotnet-ocremixdownloader
   

2. You may need to close the previous window to continue. The command ocremixdownloader should then be able to run in any folder.

Run/compile from source

The application has been developed using .Net 8 (C#), and can be compiled/run using Visual Studio Code or just the .Net CLI (included in the .Net 8.0 SDK). Download the GitHub repository and execute the terminal command dotnet run to run from source, or dotnet build to build binaries.

Automation / scheduling

In order to automatically download the newest songs periodically (e.g daily), you need to schedule the command to run at a specific interval. In Windows, the easiest way is to use the Task Scheduler app included in Windows. In Linux & macOS, use cron.
