Usage

>>> from waveinfo import WavFile

>>> wav = WavFile("path/to/file.wav")
>>> wav.detail.format
Format.PCM
>>> wav.detail.duration
datetime.timedelta(seconds=42)
>>> wav.detail.channels
1
>>> wav.detail.bit_depth
16
>>> wav.detail.sample_rate
44100

A WavFile may be initialised by passing any of:

• A string or path-like object pointing at the file to be read
• A file-like object (eg. io.BytesIO) containing the file
• A bytes object containing the raw bytes of the file

If a non-valid wave file is provided, a WavLoadError exception will be raised.

Roadmap

• Provide methods to return the audio data, both as raw data and decoded PCM (where possible)
• Expose detail on playlists and cues
