Product Description:

phptunest is a script written in PHP, which converts your iTunes Music library from XML format to nice HTML table. It allows you to customize the resulting HTML page in many ways and has few nice features:
  • Use your own CSS styles to change the look of HTML page
  • Sort your song library with any visible column(s)
  • Include only those columns you want
  • Supports gzip compression (with compatible browsers), so long lists won't be a problem
  • Works with or without MySQL backend. Using MySQL saves a lot of memory and makes phptunest more efficient
  • Supports low-memory non-sorting parsing
  • Works with PHP 4.1 or later
  • Can write output data into static HTML file
  • Completely free and open source

What's new in this version:

  • Non-sorting ram-parser added. If sorting is disabled and there's no MySQL backend, this method saves huge amounts of RAM, and should be used if sorting is not needed. Tracks are printed in the same order as they are at iTunes Library file.
  • Simplified API for phptunest class. All settings are now passed at once as associative array.
  • ob_clean() replaced with ob_end_clean(). This improves compability with older PHP versions

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

  • Mac OS X 10.2
  • Mac OS X 10.1
  • Mac OS X 10.0

Additional Requirements:

  • PHP 4.1 or later

Now that's intresting, I didn't personally submit this release to Versiontracker at all, so it was autodiscovered and added by Versiontracker itself. Well, so be it then :)

RichB: I corrected the size (wrong size was also entered by Versiontracker, not me). Instructions are located at web site and inside PHP scripts. You can open PHP files with any text editor, since scripts are plain text.

alienmeatsack: You're correct, this is only the start (that's why version isn't 1.0 yet). I'll adjust the CSS a bit. I've successfully parsed library files from 3 to 5 megs, but I suppose it depends pretty much of hardware you're using. Code optimization will be certainly made. About that turning it into HTML file, well, it's HTML already (heh :), you can save the resulting page with any browser into HTML file. MySQL backend sounds good.

phptunest Commentarynice start, needs work - Version: 0.8, 5/22/2003 02:21PM PST

I like the idea of this script but it needs work.

I was only able to successfully use it with shorter lists of songs, a handful of albums max. Anything more than that and it would time out. Tried with my entire library (6.2meg) as well. First time it timed out. 2nd time it caused my Mac to go into a chugging loop, at which time it needed a hard reboot to get control back. also, the defauly css is way too dark (black background with tiny grey text), you will need to change it to read anything unless you have your font size set huge.

Features I'd like to see...

1) ability to split larger libraries into pages and generate nav between them
2) better handling of large library files
3) possible mysql storage of parsed data and sorting/displaying/searching
4) option to turn xml into static html file so script isn't needed to run each time (if you don't have php on your host but do on your mac)
