bc-search
=========
search bandcamp using nodejs

install

- npm install bc-search

note

The interesting bits of this module are the path and user agent.

They were found by using Bandcamp's Android app with a proxied Wi-Fi connection.

usage

the package returns a function. the returned function returns a https request options object when called. use http/https module to do actual request and callback logging.

see example...
- var search = require('bc-search')
- https.request(search("hello i am keywords"), callback).end()

example
`` js
var http = require('http')
var search = require('bc-search')

function suggest(keywords, callback) {
http.request(search(keywords), function(res) {
var data = ''

res.on('data', function(chunk) {
data += chunk
})

res.on('end', function() {
callback(JSON.parse(data))
})
}).end()
}

suggest('funky music', function(data) {
// data = { results: [], time_ms: int }
console.log(data)
})
`

each results hit is of the form:
