There comes a time, right after you burn your 137th MP3 CD, when you start feeling the need to establish a system for finding all the songs you treasure so much. It's the same with movies, application kits, books, and music -- you need software that lets you index your media quickly and output detailed search results. Here's a selection of Linux applications you can use to ease your work.

Audio::MPD::Collection(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation			       Audio::MPD::Collection(3pm)

NAME
Audio::MPD::Collection - class to query MPD's collection VERSION
version 1.120610 SYNOPSIS
my @songs = $mpd->collection->all_songs; # and lots of other methods DESCRIPTION
Audio::MPD::Collection is a class meant to access & query MPD's collection. You will be able to use those high-level methods instead of using the low-level methods provided by mpd itself. Note that you're not supposed to call the constructor yourself, an Audio::MPD::Collection is automatically created for you during the creation of an Audio::MPD object - it can then be used with the "collection()" accessor. RETRIEVING SONGS &; DIRECTORIES all_items my @items = $coll->all_items( [$path] ); Return all Audio::MPD::Common::Items (both songs & directories) currently known by mpd. If $path is supplied (relative to mpd root), restrict the retrieval to songs and dirs in this directory. all_items_simple my @items = $coll->all_items_simple( [$path] ); Return all Audio::MPD::Common::Items (both songs & directories) currently known by mpd. If $path is supplied (relative to mpd root), restrict the retrieval to songs and dirs in this directory. /! Warning: the Audio::MPD::Common::Item::Song objects will only have their tag "file" filled. Any other tag will be empty, so don't use this sub for any other thing than a quick scan! items_in_dir my @items = $coll->items_in_dir( [$path] ); Return the items in the given $path. If no $path supplied, do it on mpd's root directory. Note that this sub does not work recusrively on all directories. RETRIEVING THE WHOLE COLLECTION
all_songs my @songs = $coll->all_songs( [$path] ); Return all Audio::MPD::Common::Item::Songs currently known by mpd. If $path is supplied (relative to mpd root), restrict the retrieval to songs and dirs in this directory. all_albums my @albums = $coll->all_albums; Return the list of all albums (strings) currently known by mpd. all_artists my @artists = $coll->all_artists; Return the list of all artists (strings) currently known by mpd. all_titles my @titles = $coll->all_titles; Return the list of all song titles (strings) currently known by mpd. all_pathes my @pathes = $coll->all_pathes; Return the list of all pathes (strings) currently known by mpd. all_playlists my @lists = $coll->all_playlists; Return the list of all playlists (strings) currently known by mpd. all_genres my @genres = $coll->all_genres; Return the list of all genres (strings) currently known by mpd. PICKING A SONG
song my $song = $coll->song( $path ); Return the Audio::MPD::Common::Item::Song which correspond to $path. songs_with_filename_partial my @songs = $coll->songs_with_filename_partial( $string ); Return the Audio::MPD::Common::Item::Songs containing $string in their path. SONGS, ALBUMS, ARTISTS &; GENRES RELATIONS albums_by_artist my @albums = $coll->albums_by_artist( $artist ); Return all albums (strings) performed by $artist or where $artist participated. songs_by_artist my @songs = $coll->songs_by_artist( $artist ); Return all Audio::MPD::Common::Item::Songs performed by $artist. songs_by_artist_partial my @songs = $coll->songs_by_artist_partial( $string ); Return all Audio::MPD::Common::Item::Songs performed by an artist with $string in her name. songs_from_album my @songs = $coll->songs_from_album( $album ); Return all Audio::MPD::Common::Item::Songs appearing in $album. songs_from_album_partial my @songs = $coll->songs_from_album_partial( $string ); Return all Audio::MPD::Common::Item::Songs appearing in album containing $string. songs_with_title my @songs = $coll->songs_with_title( $title ); Return all Audio::MPD::Common::Item::Songs which title is exactly $title. songs_with_title_partial my @songs = $coll->songs_with_title_partial( $string ); Return all Audio::MPD::Common::Item::Songs where $string is part of the title. artists_by_genre my @artists = $coll->artists_by_genre( $genre ); Return all artists (strings) of $genre.
