Products > python-musicbrainz2
The package python-musicbrainz2 is a client library written in python, which provides easy object oriented access to the MusicBrainz Database using the XMLWebService. It has been written from scratch and uses a different model than PythonMusicbrainz, the first generation python bindings.
API documentation can be created from the source code using epydoc and is also available online. The source distribution comes with example code which demonstrates some of the most important features. Questions about python-musicbrainz2 can be asked on the MusicBrainz DevelopersMailingList.
