Python-MusicBrainz2 is a python client library that allows for effortless and object-oriented access to the MusicBrainz database.
Python-musicbrainz2 is a highly versatile client library that provides easy access to the MusicBrainz database, leveraging XMLWebServices. This software has been built entirely from scratch and boasts a different model than the first-generation Python bindings, known as PythonMusicbrainz.
To use this software, you need Python (tested with 2.4), libmusicbrainz (tested with 2.1.1), and ctypes (tested with 0.9.6 and 0.9.9.3).
Installation is easy, thanks to Python's standard distutils. Simply run `python setup.py install` (root permissions may be required on some systems). For documentation, you can opt to generate API docs using epydoc, which creates an `html` directory containing the documentation, with the command `python setup.py docs`.
The latest release of this software offers new functionalities, which include support for record labels, catalog numbers, and bar codes (EAN/UPC). Overall, it is an excellent client library that you should consider if you intend to develop applications that leverage the MusicBrainz database.
