Beatport Plugin
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
As of October 2013, Beatport has `closed their API`_. We've contacted them
|
|
to attempt to gain access as a "partner." Until this happens, though, this
|
|
plugin won't work.
|
|
|
|
The ``beatport`` plugin adds support for querying the `Beatport`_ catalogue
|
|
during the autotagging process. This can potentially be helpful for users
|
|
whose collection includes a lot of diverse electronic music releases, for which
|
|
both MusicBrainz and (to a lesser degree) Discogs show no matches.

Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
To see matches from the ``beatport`` plugin, you first have to enable it in
|
|
your configuration (see :doc:`/plugins/index`). Then, install the `requests`_
|
|
library (which we need for querying the Beatport API) by typing::
|
|
|
|
pip install requests
|
|
|
|
And you're done. Matches from Beatport should now show up alongside matches
|
|
from MusicBrainz and other sources.
|
|
|
|
If you have a Beatport ID or a URL for a release or track you want to tag, you
|
|
can just enter one of the two at the "enter Id" prompt in the importer.
