### Browser Support
|
|
85
|
-
|
|
86
|
-
Although music-metadata is designed to run the node.js. [music-metadata-browser](https://github.com/Borewit/music-metadata-browser) can be used on the browser side.
|
|
87
|
-
|
|
88
|
-
To avoid Node `fs` dependency inclusion, you may use a sub-module inclusion:
|
|
89
|
-
```js
|
|
90
|
-
import * as mm from 'music-metadata/lib/core';
|
|
91
|
-
```
|
|
92

## Usage
|
|
104
|
-
|
|
105
|
-
### Installation
|
|
106
|
-
Install using [npm](http://npmjs.org/):
|
|
107
|
-
|
|
108
|
-
```bash
|
|
109
|
-
npm install music-metadata
|
|
110
|
-
```
|
|
111
|
-
or using [yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/):
|
|
112
|
-
```bash
|
|
113
|
-
yarn add music-metadata
|
|
114
|
-
```
|
|
115
|
-
|
|
116
|
-
### Import music-metadata
|
|
117
|
-
|
|
118
|
-
Import music-metadata:
|
|
119
|
-
```JavaScript
|
|
120
|
-
import { parseFile } from 'music-metadata';
|
|
121
|
-
```
|
|
122
|
-
Import the methods you need, like `parseFile` in this example.
|
|
123
|
-
|
|
124
|
-
### Module Functions
|
|
125
|
-
|
|
126
|
-
There are two ways to parse (read) audio tracks:
|
|
127
|
-
1) Audio (music) files can be parsed using direct file access using the [parseFile function](#parsefile)
|
|
128
|
-
2) Using [Node.js streams](https://nodejs.org/api/stream.html) using the [parseStream function](#parseStream).
|
|
129
|
-
|
|
130
|
-
Direct file access tends to be a little faster, because it can 'jump' to various parts in the file without being obliged to read intermediate data.
|
|
131
|
-
|
|
132
|
-
#### parseFile function
|
|
133
|
-
|
|
134
|
-
Parses the specified file (`filePath`) and returns a promise with the metadata result (`IAudioMetadata`).
|
|
135
|
-
|
|
136
|
-
```ts
|
|
137
|
-
parseFile(filePath: string, opts: IOptions = {}): Promise<IAudioMetadata>`
|
|
138
|
-
```
|
|
139
|
-
|
|
140
|
-
Example:
|
|
141
|
-
```js
|
|
142
|
-
import { parseFile } from 'music-metadata';
|
|
143
|
-
import { inspect } from 'util';
|
|
144
|
-
|
|
145
|
-
(async () => {
|
|
146
|
-
try {
|
|
147
|
-
const metadata = await parseFile('../music-metadata/test/samples/MusicBrainz - Beth Hart - Sinner\'s Prayer [id3v2.3].V2.mp3');
|
|
148
|
-
console.log(inspect(metadata, { showHidden: false, depth: null }));
|
|
149
|
-
} catch (error) {
|
|
150
|
-
console.error(error.message);
|
|
151
|
-
}
|
|
152
|
-
})();
|
|
153
|
-
```
|
|
154
|
-
|
|
155
|
-
#### parseStream function
|
|
156
|
-
|
|
157
|
-
Parses the provided audio stream for metadata.
|
|
158
|
-
It is recommended to provide the corresponding [MIME-type](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Basics_of_HTTP/MIME_types).
|
|
159
|
-
An extension (e.g.: `.mp3`), filename or path will also work.
|
|
160
|
-
If the MIME-type or filename (via `fileInfo.path`) is not provided, or not understood, music-metadata will try to derive the type from the content.
|
|
161
|
-
|
|
162
|
-
```ts
|
|
163
|
-
parseStream(stream: Stream.Readable, fileInfo?: IFileInfo | string, opts?: IOptions = {}): Promise<IAudioMetadata>`
|
|
164
|
-
```
|
|
165
|
-
|
|
166
|
-
Example:
|
|
167
|
-
```js
|
|
168
|
-
import { parseStream } from 'music-metadata';
|
|
169
|
-
|
|
170
|
-
(async () => {
|
|
171
|
-
try {
|
|
172
|
-
const metadata = await parseStream(someReadStream, {mimeType: 'audio/mpeg', size: 26838});
|
|
173
|
-
console.log(metadata);
|
|
174
|
-
} catch (error) {
|
|
175
|
-
console.error(error.message);
|
|
176
|
-
}
|
|
177
|
-
})();
|
|
178
|
-
```
|
|
179
|
-
|
|
180
|
-
#### parseBuffer function
|
|
181
|
-
|
|
182
|
-
Parse metadata from an audio file, where the audio file is held in a [Buffer](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html).
|
|
183
|
-
|
|
184
|
-
```ts
|
|
185
|
-
parseBuffer(buffer: Buffer, fileInfo?: IFileInfo | string, opts?: IOptions = {}): Promise<IAudioMetadata>
|
|
186
|
-
```
|
|
187
|
-
|
|
188
|
-
Example:
|
|
189
|
-
```js
|
|
190
|
-
import { parseBuffer } from 'music-metadata';
|
|
191
|
-
|
|
192
|
-
(async () => {
|
|
193
|
-
try {
|
|
194
|
-
const metadata = await parseBuffer(someBuffer, 'audio/mpeg');
|
|
195
|
-
console.log(metadata);
|
|
196
|
-
} catch (error) {
|
|
197
|
-
console.error(error.message);
|
|
198
|
-
}
|
|
199
|
-
})();
|
|
200
|
-
```
|
|
201
|
-
|
|
202
|
-
#### parseFromTokenizer function
|
|
203
|
-
This is a low level function, reading from a [strtok3](https://github.com/Borewit/strtok3) ITokenizer interface.
|
|
204
|
-
[music-metadata-browser](https://github.com/Borewit/music-metadata-browser) is depended on this function.
|
|
205
|
-
|
|
206
|
-
This also enables special read modules like:
|
|
207
|
-
* [streaming-http-token-reader](https://github.com/Borewit/streaming-http-token-reader) for chunked HTTP(S) reading, using [HTTP range requests](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Range_requests).
|
|
208
|
-
|
|
209
|
-
#### orderTags function
|
|
210
|
-
|
|

#### ratingToStars function
|
|
233
|
-
|
|
234
|
-
Can be used to convert the normalized rating value to the 0..5 stars, where 0 an undefined rating, 1 the star the lowest rating and 5 the highest rating.
|
|
235
|
-
|
|
236
|
-
```ts
|
|
237
|
-
ratingToStars(rating: number): number
|
|
238
|
-
```
|
|
239
|
-
#### selectCover function
|
|
240
|
-
|
|
241
|
-
Select cover image based on image type field, otherwise the first picture in file.
|
|
242
|
-
|
|
243
|
-
```ts
|
|
244
|
-
export function selectCover(pictures?: IPicture[]): IPicture | null
|
|
245
|
-
```
|
|
246
|
-
|
|
247
|
-
```js
|
|
248
|
-
import { parseFile, selectCover } from 'music-metadata';
|
|
249
|
-
|
|
250
|
-
(async () => {
|
|
251
|
-
const {common} = await parseFile(filePath);
|
|
252
|
-
const cover = selectCover(common.picture); // pick the cover image
|
|
253
|
-
}
|
|
254
|
-
)();
|
|
255
|
-
```
|
|
256
|
-
|
|
257
|
-
### Options
|
|
258
|
-
* `duration`: default: `false`, if set to `true`, it will parse the whole media file if required to determine the duration.
|
|
259
|
-
* `observer: (update: MetadataEvent) => void;`: Will be called after each change to `common` (generic) tag, or `format` properties.
|
|
260
|
-
* `skipCovers`: default: `false`, if set to `true`, it will not return embedded cover-art (images).
|
|
261
|
-
* `skipPostHeaders? boolean` default: `false`, if set to `true`, it will not search all the entire track for additional headers. Only recommenced to use in combination with streams.
|
|
262
|
-
* `includeChapters` default: `false`, if set to `true`, it will parse chapters (currently only MP4 files). _experimental functionality_
|
|
263
|
-
|
|
264
|
-
Although in most cases duration is included, in some cases it requires `music-metadata` parsing the entire file.
|
|
265
|
-
To enforce parsing the entire file if needed you should set `duration` to `true`.
|
|
266
|
-
|
|
267
|
-

## Examples
|
|
341
|
-
|
|
342
|
-
In order to read the duration of a stream (with the exception of file streams), in some cases you should pass the size of the file in bytes.
|
|
343
|
-
```js
|
|
344
|
-
import { parseStream } from 'music-metadata';
|
|
345
|
-
import { inspect } from 'util';
|
|
346
|
-
|
|
347
|
-
(async () => {
|
|
348
|
-
const metadata = await parseStream(someReadStream, {mimeType: 'audio/mpeg', size: 26838}, {duration: true});
|
|
349
|
-
console.log(inspect(metadata, {showHidden: false, depth: null}));
|
|
350
|
-
someReadStream.close();
|
|
351
|
-
}
|
|
352
|
-
)();
|
|
353
|
-
```
|
|
354
|
-
|
|
355
|
-
### Access cover art
|
|
356
|
-
|
|
357
|
-
Via `metadata.common.picture` you can access an array of cover art if present.
|
|
358
|
-
Each picture has this interface:
|
|
359
|
-
|
|
360
|
-
```ts
|
|
361
|
-
/**
|
|
362
|
-
* Attached picture, typically used for cover art
|
|
363
|
-
*/
|
|
364
|
-
export interface IPicture {
|
|
365
|
-
/**
|
|
366
|
-
* Image mime type
|
|
367
|
-
*/
|
|
368
|
-
format: string;
|
|
369
|
-
/**
|
|
370
|
-
* Image data
|
|
371
|
-
*/
|
|
372
|
-
data: Buffer;
|
|
373
|
-
/**
|
|
374
|
-
* Optional description
|
|
375
|
-
*/
|
|
376
|
-
description?: string;
|
|
377
|
-
/**
|
|
378
|
-
* Picture type
|
|
379
|
-
*/
|
|
380
|
-
type?: string;
|
|
381
|
-
}
|
|
382
|
-
```
|
|
383
|
-
|
|
384
|
-
To assign `img` HTML-object you can do something like:
|
|
385
|
-
```js
|
|
386
|
-
img.src = `data:${picture.format};base64,${picture.data.toString('base64')}`;
|
|
387
|
-
```
|
|
388
|
-
|
|
389

## Frequently Asked Questions
|
|
390
|
-
|
|
391
|
-
1. How can I traverse (a long) list of files?
|
|
392
|
-
|
|
393
|
-
What is important that file parsing should be done in a sequential manner.
|
|
394
|
-
In a plain loop, due to the asynchronous character (like most JavaScript functions), it would cause all the files to run in parallel which is will cause your application to hang in no time.
|
|
395
|
-
There are multiple ways of achieving this:
|
|
396
|
-
|
|
397
|
-
1. Using recursion
|
|
398
|
-
|
|
399
|
-
```js
|
|
400
|
-
import { parseFile } from 'music-metadata';
|
|
401
|
-
|
|
402
|
-
function parseFiles(audioFiles) {
|
|
403
|
-
|
|
404
|
-
const audioFile = audioFiles.shift();
|
|
405
|
-
|
|
406
|
-
if (audioFile) {
|
|
407
|
-
return parseFile(audioFile).then(metadata => {
|
|
408
|
-
// Do great things with the metadata
|
|
409
|
-
return parseFiles(audioFiles); // process rest of the files AFTER we are finished
|
|
410
|
-
})
|
|
411
|
-
}
|
|
412
|
-
}
|
|
413
|
-
|
|
414
|
-
```
|
|
415
|
-
|
|
416
|
-
2. Use async/await
|
|
417
|
-
|
|
418
|
-
Use [async/await](https://javascript.info/async-await)
|
|
419
|
-
|
|
420
|
-
```js
|
|
421
|
-
import { parseFile } from 'music-metadata';
|
|
422
|
-
|
|
423
|
-
// it is required to declare the function 'async' to allow the use of await
|
|
424
|
-
async function parseFiles(audioFiles) {
|
|
425
|
-
|
|
426
|
-
for (const audioFile of audioFiles) {
|
|
427
|
-
|
|
428
|
-
// await will ensure the metadata parsing is completed before we move on to the next file
|
|
429
|
-
const metadata = await parseFile(audioFile);
|
|
430
|
-
// Do great things with the metadata
|
|
431
|
-
}
|
|
432
|
-
}
|
|
433
|
-
```
|
|
434
|
-
|
|
435
|
-
3. Use a specialized module to traverse files
|
|
436
|
-
|
|
437
|
-
There are specialized modules to traversing (walking) files and directory,
|
|
438
|
-
like [walk](https://www.npmjs.com/package/walk).

## Compatibility
|
|
79
|
+
|
|
80
|
+
Module: version 8 migrated from [CommonJS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CommonJS) to [pure ECMAScript Module (ESM)](https://gist.github.com/sindresorhus/a39789f98801d908bbc7ff3ecc99d99c).
|
|
81
|
+
JavaScript is compliant with [ECMAScript 2019 (ES10)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ECMAScript#10th_Edition_%E2%80%93_ECMAScript_2019).
|
|
82
|
+
Requires Node.js ≥ 14.13.1 engine.
|
|
83
|
+
|
|
84
|
+
### Browser Support
|
|
85
|
+
|
|
86
|
+
Although music-metadata is designed to run the node.js. [music-metadata-browser](https://github.com/Borewit/music-metadata-browser) can be used on the browser side.
|
|
87
|
+
|
|
88
|
+
To avoid Node `fs` dependency inclusion, you may use a sub-module inclusion:
|
|
89
|
+
```js
|
|
90
|
+
import * as mm from 'music-metadata/lib/core';
|
|
91
|
+
```
|
|
92
|
+
|
|
93
|
+
| function | `music-metadata` | `music-metadata/lib/core` |

|
|
104
|
+
|
|
105
|
+
### Installation
|
|
106
|
+

|
|
107
|
+
|
|
108
|
+
```bash
|
|
109
|
+
npm install music-metadata
|

|
|
114
|
+
```
|
|
115
|
+
|
|
116
|
+
### Import music-metadata
|
|
117
|
+
|
|
118
|
+
Import music-metadata:
|
|
119
|
+
```JavaScript
|
|
120
|
+
import { parseFile } from 'music-metadata';
|
|
121
|
+
```
|
|
122
|
+
Import the methods you need, like `parseFile` in this example.
|
|
123
|
+
|
|
124
|
+
### Module Functions
|
|
125
|
+
|
|
126
|
+
There are two ways to parse (read) audio tracks:
|
|
127
|
+
1) Audio (music) files can be parsed using direct file access using the [parseFile function](#parsefile)
|
|
128
|
+
2) Using [Node.js streams](https://nodejs.org/api/stream.html) using the [parseStream function](#parseStream).
|
|
129
|
+
|
|
130
|
+
Direct file access tends to be a little faster, because it can 'jump' to various parts in the file without being obliged to read intermediate data.
|
|
131
|
+
|
|
132
|
+
#### parseFile function
|
|
133
|
+
|
|
134
|
+
Parses the specified file (`filePath`) and returns a promise with the metadata result (`IAudioMetadata`).
|
|
135
|
+
|
|
136
|
+
```ts
|
|
137
|
+
parseFile(filePath: string, opts: IOptions = {}): Promise<IAudioMetadata>`
|
|
138
|
+
```
|
|
139
|
+
|
|
140
|
+
Example:
|
|
141
|
+
```js
|
|
142
|
+
import { parseFile } from 'music-metadata';
|
|
143
|
+
import { inspect } from 'util';
|
|
144
|
+
|
|
145
|
+
(async () => {
|
|
146
|
+
try {
|
|
147
|
+
const metadata = await parseFile('../music-metadata/test/samples/MusicBrainz - Beth Hart - Sinner\'s Prayer [id3v2.3].V2.mp3');
|
|
148
|
+
console.log(inspect(metadata, { showHidden: false, depth: null }));
|
|
149
|
+
} catch (error) {
|
|
150
|
+
console.error(error.message);
|
|
151
|
+
}
|
|
152
|
+
})();
|
|
153
|
+
```
|
|
154
|
+
|
|
155
|
+
#### parseStream function
|
|
156
|
+
|
|
157
|
+
Parses the provided audio stream for metadata.
|
|
158
|
+
It is recommended to provide the corresponding [MIME-type](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Basics_of_HTTP/MIME_types).
|
|
159
|
+
An extension (e.g.: `.mp3`), filename or path will also work.
|
|
160
|
+
If the MIME-type or filename (via `fileInfo.path`) is not provided, or not understood, music-metadata will try to derive the type from the content.
|
|
161
|
+
|
|
162
|
+
```ts
|
|
163
|
+
parseStream(stream: Stream.Readable, fileInfo?: IFileInfo | string, opts?: IOptions = {}): Promise<IAudioMetadata>`
|
|
164
|
+
```
|
|
165
|
+
|
|
166
|
+
Example:
|
|
167
|
+
```js
|
|
168
|
+
import { parseStream } from 'music-metadata';
|
|
169
|
+
|
|
170
|
+
(async () => {
|
|
171
|
+
try {
|
|
172
|
+
const metadata = await parseStream(someReadStream, {mimeType: 'audio/mpeg', size: 26838});
|
|
173
|
+
console.log(metadata);
|
|
174
|
+
} catch (error) {
|
|
175
|
+
console.error(error.message);
|
|
176
|
+
}
|
|
177
|
+
})();
|
|
178
|
+
```
|
|
179
|
+
|
|
180
|
+
#### parseBuffer function
|
|
181
|
+
|
|
182
|
+
Parse metadata from an audio file, where the audio file is held in a [Buffer](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html).
|
|
183
|
+
|
|
184
|
+
```ts
|
|
185
|
+
parseBuffer(buffer: Buffer, fileInfo?: IFileInfo | string, opts?: IOptions = {}): Promise<IAudioMetadata>
|
|
186
|
+
```
|
|
187
|
+
|
|
188
|
+
Example:
|
|
189
|
+
```js
|
|
190
|
+
import { parseBuffer } from 'music-metadata';
|
|
191
|
+
|
|
192
|
+
(async () => {
|
|
193
|
+
try {
|
|
194
|
+
const metadata = await parseBuffer(someBuffer, 'audio/mpeg');
|
|
195
|
+
console.log(metadata);
|
|
196
|
+
} catch (error) {
|
|
197
|
+
console.error(error.message);
|
|
198
|
+
}
|
|
199
|
+
})();
|
|
200
|
+
```
|
|
201
|
+
|
|
202
|
+
#### parseFromTokenizer function
|
|
203
|
+
This is a low level function, reading from a [strtok3](https://github.com/Borewit/strtok3) ITokenizer interface.
|
|
204
|
+
[music-metadata-browser](https://github.com/Borewit/music-metadata-browser) is depended on this function.
|
|
205
|
+
|
|
206
|
+
This also enables special read modules like:
|
|
207
|
+
* [streaming-http-token-reader](https://github.com/Borewit/streaming-http-token-reader) for chunked HTTP(S) reading, using [HTTP range requests](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Range_requests).
|
|
208
|
+
|
|
209

|
+
try {
|
|
223
|
+
const metadata = await parseFile('../test/samples/MusicBrainz - Beth Hart - Sinner\'s Prayer [id3v2.3].V2.mp3');
|
|
224
|
+
const orderedTags = orderTags(metadata.native['ID3v2.3']);
|
|
225
|
+
console.log(inspect(orderedTags, { showHidden: false, depth: null }));
|
|
226
|
+
} catch (error) {
|
|
227
|
+
console.error(error.message);
|
|
228
|
+
}
|
|
229
|
+
})();
|
|
230
|
+
```
|
|
231
|
+
|
|
232
|
+
#### ratingToStars function
|
|
233
|
+
|
|
234
|
+
Can be used to convert the normalized rating value to the 0..5 stars, where 0 an undefined rating, 1 the star the lowest rating and 5 the highest rating.
|
|
235
|
+
|
|
236
|
+
```ts
|
|
237
|
+
ratingToStars(rating: number): number
|
|
238
|
+
```
|
|
239
|
+
#### selectCover function
|
|
240
|
+
|
|
241
|
+
Select cover image based on image type field, otherwise the first picture in file.
|
|
242
|
+
|
|
243
|
+
```ts
|
|
244
|
+
export function selectCover(pictures?: IPicture[]): IPicture | null
|
|
245
|
+
```
|
|
246
|
+
|
|
247
|
+
```js
|
|
248
|
+
import { parseFile, selectCover } from 'music-metadata';
|
|
249
|
+
|
|
250
|
+
(async () => {
|
|
251
|
+
const {common} = await parseFile(filePath);
|
|
252
|
+
const cover = selectCover(common.picture); // pick the cover image
|
|
253
|
+
}
|
|
254
|
+
)();
|
|
255
|
+
```
|
|
256
|
+
|
|
257
|
+
### Options
|
|
258
|
+
* `duration`: default: `false`, if set to `true`, it will parse the whole media file if required to determine the duration.
|
|
259
|
+
* `observer: (update: MetadataEvent) => void;`: Will be called after each change to `common` (generic) tag, or `format` properties.
|
|
260
|
+
* `skipCovers`: default: `false`, if set to `true`, it will not return embedded cover-art (images).
|
|
261
|
+
* `skipPostHeaders? boolean` default: `false`, if set to `true`, it will not search all the entire track for additional headers. Only recommenced to use in combination with streams.
|
|
262
|
+
* `includeChapters` default: `false`, if set to `true`, it will parse chapters (currently only MP4 files). _experimental functionality_
|
|
263
|
+
|
|
264
|
+
Although in most cases duration is included, in some cases it requires `music-metadata` parsing the entire file.
|
|
265
|
+
To enforce parsing the entire file if needed you should set `duration` to `true`.
|
|
266
|
+
|
|
267
|
+
### Metadata result
|
|
268
|
+
|

+
|
|
297
|
+
To support advanced containers like [Matroska](https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Matroska) or [MPEG-4](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPEG-4), which may contain multiple audio and video tracks, the **experimental** `metadata.trackInfo` has been added,
|
|
298
|
+
|
|
299

## Examples
|
|
341
|
+
|
|
342
|
+
In order to read the duration of a stream (with the exception of file streams), in some cases you should pass the size of the file in bytes.
|
|
343
|
+
```js
|
|
344
|
+
import { parseStream } from 'music-metadata';
|
|
345
|
+
import { inspect } from 'util';
|
|
346
|
+
|
|
347
|
+
(async () => {
|
|
348
|
+
const metadata = await parseStream(someReadStream, {mimeType: 'audio/mpeg', size: 26838}, {duration: true});
|
|
349
|
+
console.log(inspect(metadata, {showHidden: false, depth: null}));
|
|
350
|
+
someReadStream.close();
|
|
351
|
+
}
|
|
352
|
+
)();
|
|
353
|
+
```
|
|
354
|
+
|
|
355
|
+
### Access cover art
|
|
356
|
+
|
|
357
|
+
Via `metadata.common.picture` you can access an array of cover art if present.
|
|
358
|
+
Each picture has this interface:
|
|
359
|
+
|
|
360
|
+
```ts
|
|
361
|
+
/**
|
|
362
|
+
* Attached picture, typically used for cover art
|
|
363
|
+
*/
|
|
364
|
+
export interface IPicture {
|
|
365
|
+
/**
|
|
366
|
+
* Image mime type
|
|
367
|
+
*/
|
|
368
|
+
format: string;
|
|
369
|
+
/**
|
|
370
|
+
* Image data
|
|
371
|
+
*/
|
|
372
|
+
data: Buffer;
|
|
373
|
+
/**
|
|
374
|
+
* Optional description
|
|
375
|
+
*/
|
|
376
|
+
description?: string;
|
|
377
|
+
/**
|
|
378
|
+
* Picture type
|
|
379
|
+
*/
|
|
380
|
+
type?: string;
|
|
381
|
+
}
|
|
382
|
+
```
|
|
383
|
+
|
|
384
|
+
To assign `img` HTML-object you can do something like:
|
|
385
|
+
```js
|
|
386
|
+
img.src = `data:${picture.format};base64,${picture.data.toString('base64')}`;
|
|
387
|
+
```
|
|
388
|
+

## Frequently Asked Questions
|
|
390
|
+
|
|
391
|
+
1. How can I traverse (a long) list of files?
|
|
392
|
+
|
|
393
|
+
What is important that file parsing should be done in a sequential manner.
|
|
394
|
+
In a plain loop, due to the asynchronous character (like most JavaScript functions), it would cause all the files to run in parallel which is will cause your application to hang in no time.
|
|
395
|
+
There are multiple ways of achieving this:
|
|
396
|
+
|
|
397
|
+
1. Using recursion
|
|
398
|
+
|
|
399
|
+
```js
|
|
400
|
+
import { parseFile } from 'music-metadata';
|
|
401
|
+
|
|
402
|
+
function parseFiles(audioFiles) {
|
|
403
|
+
|
|
404
|
+
const audioFile = audioFiles.shift();
|
|
405
|
+
|
|
406
|
+
if (audioFile) {
|
|
407
|
+
return parseFile(audioFile).then(metadata => {
|
|
408
|
+
// Do great things with the metadata
|
|
409
|
+
return parseFiles(audioFiles); // process rest of the files AFTER we are finished
|
|
410
|
+
})
|
|
411
|
+
}
|
|
412
|
+
}
|
|
413
|
+
|
|
414
|
+
```
|
|
415
|
+
|
|
416
|
+
2. Use async/await
|
|
417
|
+
|
|
418
|
+
Use [async/await](https://javascript.info/async-await)
|
|
419
|
+
|
|
420
|
+
```js
|
|
421
|
+
import { parseFile } from 'music-metadata';
|
|
422
|
+
|
|
423
|
+
// it is required to declare the function 'async' to allow the use of await
|
|
424
|
+
async function parseFiles(audioFiles) {
|
|
425
|
+
|
|
426
|
+
for (const audioFile of audioFiles) {
|
|
427
|
+
|
|
428
|
+
// await will ensure the metadata parsing is completed before we move on to the next file
|
|
429
|
+
const metadata = await parseFile(audioFile);
|
|
430
|
+
// Do great things with the metadata
|
|
431
|
+
}
|
|
432
|
+
}
|
|
433
|
+
```
|
|
434
|
+
|
|
435
|
+
3. Use a specialized module to traverse files
|
|
436
|
+
|
|
437
|
+
There are specialized modules to traversing (walking) files and directory,
|
|
438
|
+
like [walk](https://www.npmjs.com/package/walk).
