Midx

Program to index music files and their metadata for linux in C++20 (with Python bindings), with the intention to be used as a backend for a music player.
Given a directory (or directories), it searches for music files, extracts metadata and stores everything in an sqlite database. Generate the Doxygen docs for details.

Dependenies

Cmake will try to download & compile them, but I am not very good with it, so it might fail :)

• cmake
• taglib

Using the library

• Download the library
• Add it from your project's CmakeLists.txt:

add_subdirectory("deps/Midx")

• Include header files:

get_target_property(MIDX_INCLUDE_DIRS Midx MIDX_INCLUDE_DIRS)
include_directories("${MIDX_INCLUDE_DIRS}")

Build

Run this from the root directory of the project.

mkdir build && cd build && cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .. && cmake --build .

TODO

• Testing.
• Make it cross platform.
