Browser Controller, Python

Everyone in the tech community knows that Python is very handy for automating almost anything! So bored me decided to write a 2 line script to open up the backing tracks(I’m a guitarist as well) that I need from YouTube without manually having to search for them.

1. Execute the Python script.
2. Links are opened in the browser

To run:

$ python3 script.py

Source Code

Python has a built-in library called webbrowser which opens up links in the browser. In the above code, I’m iterating over a Python dictionary containing all the links and the script opens all the links in new tabs. I stored the dictionary in a separate Python file known as config so that I can easily add new links without having to hard code it again and again.

config file

You can download the script from here.
