alias DiscId = void*;

A transparent handle for an Audio CD.

This is returned by discid_new and has to be passed as the first parameter to all discid_*() functions.

nothrow @nogc @trusted DiscId* discid_new();

Return a handle for a new DiscId object.

If no memory could be allocated, null is returned. Don't use the created DiscId object before calling discid_read or discid_put.

Returns: a DiscId object, or null.

nothrow @nogc @system void discid_free(scope DiscId* d);

Release the memory allocated for the DiscId object.

Parameters:

DiscId* d

a DiscId object created by discid_new

nothrow @nogc @trusted int discid_read(scope DiscId* d, scope const char* device);

Read all supported features of the disc in the given CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive.

This function reads the disc in the drive specified by the given device identifier. If the device is null, the default drive, as returned by discid_get_default_device is used.

If you do not require all features provided by libdiscid, such as MCN or ISRC reading, you should consider using discid_read_sparse instead of discid_read for performance reasons.

On error, this function returns false and sets the error message which you can access using discid_get_error_msg. In this case, the other functions won't return meaningful values and should not be used.

This function may be used multiple times with the same DiscId object.

Parameters:

DiscId* d	a DiscId object created by discid_new
char* device	an operating system dependent device identifier, or null

Returns: true successful, or false on error.

nothrow @nogc @trusted int discid_read_sparse(scope DiscId* d, scope const char* device, uint features);

Read the disc in the given CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive extracting only the TOC and additionally specified features.

This function will always read the TOC, but additional features like DISCID_FEATURE_MCN and DISCID_FEATURE_ISRC can be set using the features parameter. Multiple features can be set using bitwise OR.

If you only want to generate a disc ID, you only need the TOC, so set features to 0:

discid_read_sparse(disc, device, 0)

This is a bit more verbose, but equivalent since DISCID_FEATURE_READ is always implied:

discid_read_sparse(disc, device, DISCID_FEATURE_READ)

If you want to read all features available, you can use discid_read.

On error, this function returns false and sets the error message which you can access using discid_get_error_msg. In this case, the other functions won't return meaningful values and should not be used.

This function may be used multiple times with the same DiscId object.

Parameters:

DiscId* d	a DiscId object created by discid_new
char* device	an operating system dependent device identifier, or null
uint features	a list of bit flags from the DISCID_FEATURE_* enums.

Returns: true if successful, or false on error.

pure nothrow @nogc @trusted int discid_put(scope DiscId* d, int first, int last, scope int* offsets);

Provides the TOC of a known CD.

This function may be used if the TOC has been read earlier and you want to calculate the disc ID afterwards, without accessing the disc drive. It replaces the discid_read function in this case.

On error, this function returns false and sets the error message which you can access using discid_get_error_msg. In this case, the other functions won't return meaningful values and should not be used.

The offsets parameter points to a C array containing the track offsets for each track. It must contain 100 elements. Rather than a track offset, offsets[0] contains the length of the sectors on the disc (see discid_get_sectors) and offsets[1 .. numTracks + 1] contains the actual track offsets. Unfortunately, the C documentation does not state what the remaining offsets should be, but having them be 0 seems sensible and has worked in all of the cases tested (it's also what naturally happens if int[100] or new int[100] is used for the offsets).

For discs with additional data tracks, the trailing data tracks should be ignored. offsets[0] should therefore be the last sector of the last audio track.

Make sure the length of the last audio track as returned by libdiscid after a put is the same as the length of your last audio track. Depending on your tools you might need to substract 11400 (2:32 min.).

Parameters:

DiscId* d	a DiscID object created by discid_new
int first	the number of the first audio track on disc (usually one)
int last	the number of the last audio track on the disc
int* offsets	a pointer to a C array of 100 track offsets

Returns: true if the given data was valid, and false on error

nothrow @nogc @trusted char* discid_get_error_msg(scope DiscId* d);

a DiscId object created by discid_new

Returns: a string describing the error that occurred

pure nothrow @nogc @trusted char* discid_get_id(scope DiscId* d);

a DiscId object created by discid_new

Returns: a C-string containing a MusicBrainz DiscID

pure nothrow @nogc @trusted char* discid_get_freedb_id(scope DiscId* d);

Return a FreeDB DiscID.

The returned string is only valid as long as the DiscId object exists.

Parameters:

pure nothrow @nogc @trusted char* discid_get_toc_string(scope DiscId* d);

Return a string representing CD Table Of Contents (TOC).

The string has following values separated by space:

• first track number
• last track number
• total length in sectors
• offset of 1st track
• offset of 2nd track

nothrow @nogc @trusted char* discid_get_submission_url(scope DiscId* d);

Return a URL for submitting the DiscID to MusicBrainz.

The URL leads to an interactive disc submission wizard that guides the user through the process of associating this disc's DiscID with a release in the MusicBrainz database.

The returned string is only valid as long as the DiscId object exists.

Parameters:

DiscId* d

a DiscId object created by discid_new

Returns: a C-string containing a URL

nothrow @nogc @trusted char* discid_get_default_device();

Return the name of the default disc drive for this machine. This isn't constant but possibly depends on the drives currently attached, depending on the platform. For this reason, you should call this once and save it when you want to make sure to use the same drive for multiple operations.

The returned string is thread local and owned by libdiscid internally.

Returns: a C-string containing an operating system dependent device identifier

enum uint DISCID_FEATURE_READ;

enum uint DISCID_FEATURE_MCN;

enum uint DISCID_FEATURE_ISRC;

PLATFORM-DEPENDENT FEATURES

The platform dependent features are currently:

"read"	read TOC from disc
"mcn"	read MCN from disc
"isrc"	ead ISRC from disc

A table in the MusicBrainz Documentation specifies which features are available on which platform in what version.

In the code you can use discid_get_feature_list or discid_has_feature below to get the features for your platform in this version.

pure nothrow @nogc @trusted int discid_has_feature(uint feature);

Check if a certain feature is implemented on the current platform.

This only works for single features, not bit masks with multiple features.

Parameters:

uint feature

One of the DISCID_* enums

Returns: 1 if the feature is implemented and 0 if not.

See Also: DISCID_FEATURE_READ
DISCID_FEATURE_MCN
DISCID_FEATURE_ISRC

enum string DISCID_FEATURE_STR_READ;

enum string DISCID_FEATURE_STR_MCN;

enum string DISCID_FEATURE_STR_ISRC;

enum int DISCID_FEATURE_LENGTH;

pure nothrow @nogc @trusted void discid_get_feature_list(ref scope char*[DISCID_FEATURE_LENGTH] features);

Return a list of features supported by the current platform. The array of length DISCID_FEATURE_LENGTH should be allocated by the user. After the call each element of the array is either null or a pointer to a static string.

Parameters:

char*[DISCID_FEATURE_LENGTH] features

a static string array of length DISCID_FEATURE_LENGTH

pure nothrow @nogc @trusted char* discid_get_version_string();

Return the full version string of this library, including the name. This can be used for debug output. Don't use this to test for features, see discid_has_feature.

Returns: a C-string containing the version of libdiscid.
