music-brainz-api-micro 0.1.8

A micro client for MusicBrainz, implements simple functions to retrieve information

MusicBrainzAPI

A series of scripts that enable retrieving information from MusicBrainz API: https://musicbrainz.org/doc/MusicBrainz_API

Usage

When calling the public functions you will usually get a Response object. You can check the error property to determine if the REST call was successful, error_text will attempt to hold some more useful information regarding the error.

Once successful the response property contains the expected data structure from MusicBrainz

import jsonpickle
from music_brainz_api_micro import MusicBrainzAPI as MB

mb = MB()
result = mb.get_artist_by_mbid(
    "35f92c4a-69d0-4ed1-ab9e-05259db89d14"
    )
if result.error is False:
    artist_obj = jsonpickle.decode(result.reponse)
    print(artist_obj["sort-name"])
    # "At the Gates"
