NAME

AudioFile::Identify::MusicBrainz::Album

DESCRIPTION

MusicBrainz 'Album' object.

METHODS

title

get/set the title of the album. Pass a string or an XML::DOM::Node object to set.

cdindexIdList

yeah, well. The documentation has this to say about the cdindexIdList property:

  This property is used to describe a list of CD Index ids in an album.

BRILLIANT. That's really helpful, thanks guys. Anyone know what this is?

creator

get/set the 'dc:creator' resource property. This describes the albums 'artist', insofarasmuch as albums can have artists. Don't use this to get the artist; the artist method will return a AudioFile::Identify::MusicBrainz::Artist object, assuming this resource is in the store, which it should be.

artist

return the AudioFile::Identify::MusicBrainz::Artist object that is the returned artist for this album. May be the 'Various Artists' object.

coverart

Returns a string containing the URL to the Amazon.com images server for the album if one is available, otherwise returns undef.

asin

Returns the ASIN for the album specified in this Album object. ASIN stands for Amazon Standard Identification Number. It is a unique identifier for a product on amazon.com. This value can be used for constructing links into the Amazon website for providing affiliate referrals or for retrieving images or other information.

MusicBrainz only has ASIN values for a subset of all the albums in their database, so this property will quite possibly be undef if MusicBrainz cannot provide a value.

releaseDateList

Return a hash ref of release dates where the keys are country codes and the values are dates of release in the respective countries. Will return undef if MusicBrainz does not respond to the query with this information.

releaseType

get/set the releaseType property

releaseStatus

get/set the releaseStatus property

trackList

called by parse, this will extract a list of tracks from an XML::DOM::Node and build AudioFile::Identify::MusicBrainz::Track object from them, put them in the store, and build an internal array for track order. To get the tracks back, use the track or tracks method.

tracks

returns a listref of AudioFile::Identify::MusicBrainz::Track object, in track order for the album.

track(index)

returns a AudioFile::Identify::MusicBrainz::Track object for the track with the give track number.
