AnyData::Format::Mp3.3pm

NAME

AnyData::Format::Mp3 - tied hash and DBI access to Mp3 files

SYNOPSIS

  use AnyData;
  my $playlist = adTie( 'Passwd', ['c:/My Music/'] );
  while (my $song = each %$playlist){
     print $song->{artist} if $song->{genre} eq 'Reggae'
  }
 
  OR
 
  use DBI
  my $dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:AnyData:');
  $dbh->func('playlist','Mp3,['c:/My Music'],'ad_catalog');
  my $playlist = $dbh->selectall_arrayref( qq{
      SELECT artist, title FROM playlist WHERE genre = 'Reggae'
  });
  # ... other DBI/SQL operations
 
 

DESCRIPTION

This module provides a tied hash interface and a DBI/SQL interface to MP files. It creates an in-memory database or hash from the Mp3 files themselves without actually creating a separate database file. This means that the database is automatically updated just by moving files in or out of the directories.

Many mp3 (mpeg three) music files contain a header describing the song name, artist, and other information about the music.

Simply choose 'Mp3' as the format and give a reference to an array of directories containing mp3 files. Each file in those directories will become a record containing the fields:

  song
  artist
  album
  year
  genre
  filename
  filesize
 
 

This module is a submodule of the AnyData.pm and DBD::AnyData.pm modules. Refer to their documentation for further details.
