MusicBrainz rust is a utility crate for the the MusicBrainz API.
you may be looking for :
You can choose to use either the default async client or a blocking one.
async client:
musicbrainz_rs = "0.9.0"blocking client:
musicbrainz_rs = { version = "0.9.0", default-features = false, features = ["blocking"] }Note: All the example below use the blocking feature for the sake of conciseness.
To perform a lookups via fetch queries,
you need to import the Fetch trait. This can be done using musicbrainz_rs::prelude
use musicbrainz_rs::entity::artist;
use musicbrainz_rs::entity::artist::*;
use musicbrainz_rs::prelude::*;
fn main() {
let nirvana = Artist::fetch()
.id("5b11f4ce-a62d-471e-81fc-a69a8278c7da")
.execute();
assert_eq!(nirvana.unwrap().name, "Nirvana".to_string());
}You can also use includes to get more detail about a resource :
Every Musicbrainz resource has allowed include parameters.
use musicbrainz_rs::entity::label::*;
use musicbrainz_rs::prelude::*;
fn main() {
let ninja_tune = Label::fetch()
.id("dc940013-b8a8-4362-a465-291026c04b42")
.with_tags()
.with_ratings()
.execute()
.unwrap();
assert!(ninja_tune
.tags
.unwrap()
.iter()
.any(|tag| tag.name == "independent"));
assert!(ninja_tune.rating.is_some());
}Release and ReleaseGroup entities in MusicBrainz also allow you to make CoverArt queries on them:
use musicbrainz_rs::entity::release::*;
use musicbrainz_rs::entity::CoverartResponse;
use musicbrainz_rs::prelude::*;
use musicbrainz_rs::FetchCoverart;
fn main() {
// CoverArt Query for a Release.
let in_utero_coverart = Release::fetch_coverart()
.id("76df3287-6cda-33eb-8e9a-044b5e15ffdd")
.execute()
.expect("Unable to get cover art");
if let CoverartResponse::Json(coverart) = in_utero_coverart {
assert!(!coverart.images[0].back);
assert_eq!(
coverart.images[0].image,
"http://coverartarchive.org/release/76df3287-6cda-33eb-8e9a-044b5e15ffdd/829521842.jpg"
);
} else {
assert!(false);
}
let in_utero = Release::fetch()
.id("76df3287-6cda-33eb-8e9a-044b5e15ffdd")
.execute()
.expect("Unable to get release");
// Calling `get_coverart()` method on an already fetched Release entity.
let in_utero_coverart = in_utero
.get_coverart()
.execute()
.expect("Unable to get coverart");
if let CoverartResponse::Json(coverart) = in_utero_coverart {
assert!(!coverart.images[0].back);
assert_eq!(
coverart.images[0].image,
"http://coverartarchive.org/release/76df3287-6cda-33eb-8e9a-044b5e15ffdd/829521842.jpg"
);
} else {
assert!(false);
}
// CoverArt Query Builder to fetch a specific resource.
let in_utero_500px_front_coverart = Release::fetch_coverart()
.id("76df3287-6cda-33eb-8e9a-044b5e15ffdd")
.res_500()
.back()
.execute()
.expect("Unable to get cover art");
if let CoverartResponse::Url(coverart_url) = in_utero_500px_front_coverart {
println!("{}", coverart_url);
} else {
assert!(false);
}
}Use musicbrainz_rs::Browse or bring it in scope using musicbrainz_rs::prelude to perform a
browse query.
Just like Include every muscibrainz resource has allowable linked entities for such queries.
use musicbrainz_rs::entity::artist;
use musicbrainz_rs::entity::artist::Artist;
use musicbrainz_rs::prelude::*;
fn main() {
let artists_on_in_utero_release = Artist::browse()
.by_release("18d4e9b4-9247-4b44-914a-8ddec3502103")
.execute();
let artists_on_in_utero_release = artists_on_in_utero_release.unwrap();
artists_on_in_utero_release
.entities
.iter()
.for_each(|artist| println!("{:?}", artist.name));
}Use musicbrainz_rs::Search to perform a search query.
use musicbrainz_rs::entity::artist::Artist;
use musicbrainz_rs::prelude::*;
fn main() {
musicbrainz_rs::config::set_user_agent("my_awesome_app/1.0");
let query = Artist::query_builder()
.artist("Miles Davis")
.and()
.country("US")
.build();
let query_result = Artist::search(query).execute().unwrap();
let query_result: Vec<String> = query_result.entities
.iter()
.map(|artist| artist.name.clone()).collect();
assert!(query_result.contains(&"Miles Davis".to_string()));
assert!(query_result.contains(&"Miles Davis Quintet".to_string()));
}By default, the user agent will be set to musicbrainz_rs/<version>.
To comply with MB's API rules, you should set this to a custom string that identifies your application:
use musicbrainz_rs::entity::artist::Artist;
use musicbrainz_rs::prelude::*;
fn main() {
musicbrainz_rs::config::set_user_agent("my_awesome_app/1.0");
let nirvana = Artist::fetch()
.id("5b11f4ce-a62d-471e-81fc-a69a8278c7da")
.execute();
assert_eq!(nirvana.unwrap().name, "Nirvana".to_string());
}By default, a rate limiter of 1req/sec is implemented according to MB's policy. This allows to fearlessly send heaps of requests without worrying about DOS'ing MusicBrainz. This feature is only available bundled with the async feature, as it require an async runtime. But this isn't an issue for blocking users, as the API is a bit lenient, and calling requests in a loop rarely achieve 1req/sec
To see what is currently implemented in the crate you can look at the tests directory.
You can run examples with cargo run --example example_name
Here is the list of supported feature values. The default features are: async, rate_limit and reqwest/default-tls
blocking: use a blocking clientasync: use an async clientrate_limit: add a rate limiter for the requests. Requireasyncrustls: Use rustls instead of the platform's tlslegacy_serialize: Use an old version of the serializer for compatibility with musicbrainz_rs < 0.8.0 and musicbrainz_rs_nova < 0.8.0
The Minimum Supported Rust Version for the crate is 1.71.1. Any bump to the MSRV will be considered breaking changes (Until resolver v3 is more widely used).
All contributions are welcome, if find a bug or have a feature request don't hesitate to open an issue! You can check the documentation folder for more information if needed
Most of this crate documentation is taken from the official MusicBrainz doc, thanks to the MetaBrainz Foundation and its sponsors and supporters. Cover Art provided by the Cover Art Archive.
