hi- i'm digging around in the MB database, trying to make a query that gives the mb album id if passed the artist name and album name. anyone know the best way to decide which album is the "correct" one, if there are multiple entries with the same name for a given artist?
2005-05-16 13623, 2005
11:51 AM
rj_
eg, the human league have 3 entries called Greatest Hits, with 3 differnt mb ids

i think the number next to the TRM icon on the site is what i need to order by. haven't spotted it in the db yet tho, must be there somewhere

I think you mean the number of cdindexids
2005-05-16 13629, 2005
12:08 PM
yalaforge
you get it by joining album with albummeta. albummeta has a discid attribute, it's the one you seem to be looking for
2005-05-16 13655, 2005

hi

hi!

ahha, thanks.. i'll just try it.
2005-05-16 13650, 2005
12:11 PM
rj_
hmm ok so albummeta doesnt contain any data for the album i'm trying
2005-05-16 13651, 2005
12:11 PM
yalaforge
you've got to join album.id with albummeta.id
2005-05-16 13655, 2005
12:11 PM
rj_
select * from musicbrainz.albummeta where id in (141684,43289,120113);
2005-05-16 13608, 2005
12:12 PM

those are 3 album ids for the human league - greatest hits

there should be exactly one albummeta row for each album row
2005-05-16 13603, 2005
12:13 PM
yalaforge
albummeta is updated by triggers IIRC
2005-05-16 13611, 2005
12:13 PM
rj_
hmm my albummeta table only has 6902 rows
2005-05-16 13620, 2005
12:13 PM
rj_
album has 260k
2005-05-16 13624, 2005
12:13 PM
rj_
guess that's the problem
2005-05-16 13636, 2005
12:13 PM
yalaforge
then your data is incomplete
2005-05-16 13650, 2005
12:13 PM

albummeta is part of our snapshots
2005-05-16 13606, 2005
12:14 PM

odd, i'm using the hourly feed. maybe it broke. i shall investigate

thanks :)
2005-05-16 13629, 2005

it's in the derived snapshot
2005-05-16 13650, 2005
12:14 PM
yalaforge
mhh. I wonder if albummeta is part of the replication packages. I'd think no
2005-05-16 13604, 2005
12:15 PM
yalaforge
the triggers should keep it up to date
2005-05-16 13616, 2005
12:15 PM
rj_
i see, that makes sense
2005-05-16 13632, 2005
12:15 PM
rj_
the rows i have are probably created by triggers when we grab more data then
2005-05-16 13640, 2005
12:15 PM
rj_
so i need to populate that table manually the first time
2005-05-16 13646, 2005
12:17 PM
yalaforge looks at mb_server/admin/sql/updates/20040220-1.sql
2005-05-16 13607, 2005
12:18 PM
yalaforge
perhaps you can use some of the code
2005-05-16 13655, 2005
