MONIQ scanner

An example disk media scanner, compatible with file naming standards, described in the docs/.

Version

Requirements

1. A media file collection compatible with the standards (@see here).
2. A mongoDB service running on default port (configurable in config.yml)

Installation

1. git clone
2. composer install

Launching

Example test run on virtual filesystem:

php bin/console moniq:scan --filesystem=vfs --definition=src/MoniqBundle/Resources/vfs/example.json /music

Output:

Internals

Development

You will need phpunit installed in your system. Run the supplied tests to learn about crucial modules and services.

Check out the spec folder to learn about the designed class responsibilities.

Implementation should be SOLID.

Testing

Each module and service can be easily decoupled thanks to 100% dependency control. It is very convenient to use the built-in VFS for debugging and testing purposes.

TODO

1. Updating entry data in the storage. Currently there is no support for anything else than just adding to mongo.
2. Support for samplers. Some code is already there but has not been tested.
3. Support for the genre parameter. Stored collections should be tagged by it. Genre should be specified by the user on input.
4. Rotate command to create random playlist rotations using given criteria.
