node-echoprint-server

A node.js music identification server that is compatible with the Echoprint music fingerprinting client. This server is based on the original echoprint-server but attempts to improve on ease of installation, speed, matching accuracy, and ease of development/debugging.

Dependencies

To generate audio fingerprints you will need the echoprint-codegen client.

Installation

Clone this repository, enter the node-echoprint-server directory and run npm install to fetch the required dependencies. Import the mysql.sql file into your MySQL database. Next, copy config.local.js.orig to config.local.js and modify it to suit your environment. Make sure the database settings point to the MySQL database you just imported. Finally, run node index.js to start the server.

Usage

The server will listen on the port configured in config.local.js and exposes two API endpoints.

POST /ingest

Adds a new music fingerprint to the database if the given fingerprint is unique, otherwise the existing track information is returned.

Required fields:

  • code - The code string output by echoprint-codegen
  • version - metadata.version field output by echoprint-codegen
  • length - Length in seconds of the track. duration field output by echoprint-codegen

Optional fields:

  • track - Name of the track
  • artist - Track artist

The response is a JSON object containing track_id, track, artist_id, artist on success or error string on failure.

GET /query?code=...&version=...

Queries for a track matching the given fingerprint. code and version query parameters are both required. The response is a JSON object containing a success boolean, status string, match object on successful match, or error string if something went wrong.

GET /debug

The /debug endpoint can be visited in a browser and provides a human-friendly way of querying for a match and observing results. Here is a screenshot of the debug interface in action:
