Download musescore-scores as pdf whilst skipping the paywall.

Musescore Downloader

Did you ever come across a score on musescore and want to download it as a pdf but notice it is stuck behind a paywall? Kinda sucks.

I mean one could screenshot each page and combine them into a pdf, but that would take time and effort.

This is, why I wrote this little app to do this automatically.

Installation

Clone the repository, install the packages and run it.

git clone https://github.com/jokue2002/musescore-downloader
cd musescore-downloader
npm install
node index.js

The program will ask you for the URL of the score (e.g. https://musescore.com/user/35230830/scores/8437241) and (hopefully) output a file named score.pdf.
