Python binding of Libdiscid
Project description
Python-discid implements Python bindings for MusicBrainz Libdiscid. This module works with Python >= 2.6, including Python 3.
Libdiscid’s main purpose is the calculation of an identifier of audio discs (disc id) to use for the MusicBrainz database.
That identifier is calculated from the TOC of the disc, similar to the freeDB CDDB identifier. Libdiscid can calculate MusicBranz Disc IDs and freeDB Disc IDs.
This module is a very close binding that offloads all relevant data storage and calculation to Libdiscid. On the other hand it gives a pythonic API and uses an object and exceptions.
For more information on Libdiscid see libdiscid.
For more information about the calculation of these disc ids see Disc ID Calculation.
Usage
# this will load Libdiscid from discid import DiscId with DiscId() as disc: disc.read("/dev/cdrom") print "id: %s" % disc.get_id() # Python 2 print("id: %s" % disc.get_id()) # Python 3
