## Script details

### download-list.user.js

- Adds buttons beside each RYM list to export it to CSV or plain-text list.
- Preserves ordering, list item titles, artists, release info, and notes where available.

### download-\*-charts.user.js

![Download songs list button screenshot](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dbeley/rym-userscripts/main/docs/userscript_buttons.png)

- Adds CSV and text export buttons above charts.
- Includes artwork URLs, rating counts, genres, and release metadata. Cf. the [Sample Data](#sample-data) section below.
- Tip: set RYM chart settings to show 100 rows per page to minimize paging.
- If you need all the album cover links don't forget to scroll to the bottom of the page to load them all.

### play-chart-songs.user.js

- Adds a `▶ Play` button to each song in a chart.
- Opens the first YouTube result automatically in a new tab.

### retain-filters-on-chart-links.user.js

- Ensures links to decades/subcharts keep your current filters (genres, descriptors, regions, etc.).
- Example: when browsing [top jazz albums](https://rateyourmusic.com/charts/top/album/all-time/g:jazz/), decade shortcuts now keep the `g:jazz` filter intact.

### rateyourmusic-\*-csv-tracker-user-js

> [!NOTE]
> The CSV tracker scripts are still usable but are deprecated: they have been enriched and extended into a dedicated browser add-on that also displays the ratings on supported websites, check out [comping](https://github.com/dbeley/comping)!

- Each release page you open is added/updated in a local dataset (stored via your userscript manager).
- **Now also works on chart pages** - automatically captures partial data for all releases visible on album/release charts.
- Menu commands: `Set CSV output file` for auto-saves (Only compatible with chromium-based web browsers) or `Download CSV once` for a one-off export (manual download, works in Firefox).
- Captures title, artist, release date, type, rank, ratings/reviews, primary/secondary genres, descriptors, languages, description, cover image URL, page URL, and timestamps.
- When browsing charts, partial data (name, artist, ratings, genres) is captured; visiting individual pages provides complete data while preserving chart updates for dynamic fields (ratings, review counts).
