==Other online databases==
User scripts are javascripts that a user installs in one’s browser and that changes the behaviour of visited website (MusicBrainz).
 
Those scripts will add some functionalities to MusicBrainz or let users do many repetitive things in only one click, etc.
 
 
Almost all those user scripts are stored at userscripts.org under the [http://userscripts.org/tags/musicbrainz musicbrainz] tag.
 
Unfortunately userscripts.org is dying. Alternatives are listed at the [http://wiki.greasespot.net/User_Script_Hosting GreaseSpot wiki].

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

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
