This software is an Apache module that was originally designed to serve as a C version of the Perl module Apache::MP3.
Mod_musicindex is a sound software module designed to work with Apache servers. Initially, this program was intended to be a C implementation of the Perl module Apache::MP3 (). However, mod_musicindex has evolved to do much more than that.
With mod_musicindex, users can display directories containing MP3, FLAC, Ogg Vorbis, or MP4/AAC files in a clean and user-friendly way. This software makes it easy to sort these files based on varying fields, construct playlists, and even search for specific files by inputting relevant keywords. Additionally, mod_musicindex allows streaming and/or downloading of these files.
One of the key features of this software is its cache system. Currently, mirroring the tree structure handled by the module is used to store files data using a flat text files backend. However, work is ongoing to provide a choice of back-ends, such as MySQL, PostgreSQL or SQLite. This flexibility makes it possible for users to customize mod_musicindex to their needs.
Mod_musicindex also allows the delegation of streaming files to an icecast server, as long as they can be accessed using the same URI ("staticdir" option). Another cool feature of this software is the ability to display a CD cover picture in a directory. The picture will appear in the upper left corner of the web page and as a thumbnail in the parent directory.
To use this feature, the file name must match the following scheme: "(.){cover,folder}.{jpg,png,gif}" eg: "cover.png" or ".folder.jpg" are valid names. Finally, the musicindex directory contains a sample musicindex.css file. This file can be used to customize the appearance of the directory display.
Overall, mod_musicindex is a highly capable software module that shows significant promise for future development. Whether you are a novice or an experienced developer, this software has something to offer you. Any feedback on this software will be greatly appreciated.
