# Product Requirements Document (PRD)
# MusicBrainz Data Cleaner
## Project Overview
**Product Name:** MusicBrainz Data Cleaner
**Version:** 2.0.0
**Date:** July 31, 2025
**Status:** Enhanced with Direct Database Access ✅
## Problem Statement
Users have song data in JSON format with inconsistent artist names, song titles, and missing MusicBrainz identifiers. They need a tool to:
- Normalize artist names (e.g., "ACDC" → "AC/DC")
- Correct song titles (e.g., "Shot In The Dark" → "Shot in the Dark")
- Add MusicBrainz IDs (MBIDs) for artists and recordings
- Preserve existing data structure while adding new fields
- **NEW**: Use fuzzy search for better matching of similar names
## Target Users

## Technical Specifications
### Architecture
- **Language:** Python 3
- **Dependencies:** requests, psycopg2-binary, fuzzywuzzy, python-Levenshtein
- **Primary:** Direct PostgreSQL database access
- **Fallback:** MusicBrainz REST API (local server)
- **Interface:** Command-line (CLI)
### Project Structure

├── __init__.py # Package initialization
├── api/ # API-related modules
│ ├── __init__.py

```
### Architectural Principles
- **Separation of Concerns**: Each module has a single, well-defined responsibility
- **Modular Design**: Clear interfaces between modules for easy extension
- **Centralized Configuration**: All constants and settings in config module
- **Type Safety**: Using enums and type hints throughout
- **Error Handling**: Graceful error handling with meaningful messages
- **Performance First**: Direct database access for maximum speed
- **Fallback Strategy**: Automatic fallback to API when database unavailable
### Data Flow
1. Read JSON input file
2. For each song:
- Clean artist name
- **NEW**: Use fuzzy search to find artist in database
- Clean song title
- **NEW**: Use fuzzy search to find recording by artist and title
- Update song object with corrected data and MBIDs
3. Write cleaned data to output file
### Fuzzy Search Implementation
- **Algorithm**: Uses fuzzywuzzy library with multiple matching strategies
- **Similarity Thresholds**:
- Artist matching: 80% similarity
- Title matching: 85% similarity
- **Matching Strategies**: Ratio, Partial Ratio, Token Sort Ratio
- **Performance**: Optimized for large datasets
### Known Limitations
- Requires local MusicBrainz server running
- **NEW**: Requires PostgreSQL database access (host: localhost, port: 5432)
- **NEW**: Database credentials must be configured
- Search index must be populated for best results
- Limited to artists/recordings available in MusicBrainz database
- Manual configuration needed for custom artist/recording mappings
## Server Setup Requirements
### MusicBrainz Server Configuration
The tool requires a local MusicBrainz server with the following setup:
#### Database Access
- **Host**: localhost
- **Port**: 5432 (PostgreSQL default)
- **Database**: musicbrainz
- **User**: musicbrainz
- **Password**: musicbrainz (default, should be changed in production)
#### HTTP API (Fallback)
- **URL**: http://localhost:5001
- **Endpoint**: /ws/2/
- **Format**: JSON
#### Docker Setup (Recommended)
```bash
# Clone MusicBrainz Docker repository
git clone https://github.com/metabrainz/musicbrainz-docker.git
cd musicbrainz-docker
# Start the server
docker-compose up -d
# Wait for database to be ready (can take 10-15 minutes)
docker-compose logs -f musicbrainz
```
#### Manual Setup
1. Install PostgreSQL 12+
2. Create database: `createdb musicbrainz`
3. Import MusicBrainz data dump
4. Start MusicBrainz server on port 5001
#### Troubleshooting
- **Database Connection Failed**: Check PostgreSQL is running and credentials are correct
- **API Connection Failed**: Check MusicBrainz server is running on port 5001
- **Slow Performance**: Ensure database indexes are built
- **No Results**: Verify data has been imported to the database
