python-musicbrainz3

The python-musicbrainz3 package is the successor of python-musicbrainz2.

NGS is coming, so a rewrite is in order to keep up with MB development. This wiki page collects information, plans, and ideas for this project.

Feel free to edit!

Goals

• Fully support the NGS data model and web service
• Require Python 2.6 and aim to be as close to Python 3 as possible
• Make it more pythonic where possible (naming conventions?)
• Remove rarely used cruft (what would that be?)
• Keep the amount and quality of documentation
• Write more test cases

Links

• Matt's original blog announcement
• TODO: relevant documentation

Project Infrastructure

• Soon: git repository
• TODO: Review board?
• TODO: Jira?

Ideas

• Use an XML mapping package (xml.etree?)
