These parsers are meant to be run at the command line passing in either a URL (Bandcamp release, or Beatport release), or a directory with a set of files. The local file parsers run on all files in a directory with the same extension, and are intended to output a whole release, suitable for copying / pasting into the tracklist page's Track Parser. They are written in Perl, require at least Perl v5.10 and a differing set of Perl Modules based off the particular service. The local file parsers are currently format specific.

Check what they have as a label, in this case: Label: France (Megaphon Importservice) => it comes from france, and the [Import] is on .fr is bogus.

This page lists tools external to MusicBrainz that make editing or viewing data more convenient. This includes programs, scripts, reports, etc from various sources.

Userscripts

For userscripts see Userscripts.

Editing tools

User scripts / GreaseMonkey / User javascripts / UserJS

Userscripts run in a users web browser and make on-the-fly local changes to specific web pages. In MusicBrainz they are generally used to change the display of pages, often facilitating editing.

For instance, a script may add functionalities to a MusicBrainz page, or shorten repetitive actions to only one click, and so on.

Parsers

  • Bandcamp, Beatport, and Local File Parsers: Parsers to be run at the command line passing in either a URL (Bandcamp release, or Beatport release), or a directory with a set of files. Require at Perl v5.10 or newer, and a differing set of Perl Modules based off the particular service. Local file parsers are format specific.
  • vgmdb2mb.py: Python script to import VGMDB to MusicBrainz

External sites

  • Atisket: Imports releases from a Deezer/Spotify/iTunes album url, packaging useful tools into the process, such as ISRC and cover art addition
  • yambs: Imports standalone recordings, releases, artists, labels, works, and events from user-supplied text files and from Bandcamp/Qobuz/Tidal pages. The command-line version at codeberg.org/derat/yambs can also extract data from local MP3 files.
  • eac-log-lookup: Generate and submit DiscID's from EAC/XLD log
  • Image Max URL: Finds biggest available image from a image URL (also included in 'Enhanced Cover Art Uploads' userscript functionality)
  • Albunack: Displays artist discographies that combine MusicBrainz and Discogs entries. Provides shortcuts for quickly linking MB entities to Discogs, and importing Discogs releases. Also provides a number of custom reports.
  • COV - Cover Search Engine: Searches multiple sources for cover art, with options for region and minimum resolution.
  • Xythium/TIDAL: Quick and compact search for Tidal releases, compact display of artwork, barcodes, ISRC's, etc.
  • ISRCHunt: Checks if ISRC's from a Spotify Playlist exist in MB, supplies an Atisket link.
  • Multiple ISRC submission sites
