RhythmDB is an in-memory database containing RhythmDBEntry items. It runs queries represented as GPtrArrays containing query criteria, feeding the results into RhythmDBQueryResults implementations such as RhythmDBQueryModel. From there, entries are grouped by particular property values to form RhythmDBPropertyModels.
RhythmDBEntry contains a fixed set of properties, defined by RhythmDBPropType,

void rhythmdb_entry_set (RhythmDB *db
,RhythmDBEntry *entry
,guint propid
,const GValue *value
);
This function can be called by any code which wishes to change a
song property and send a notification. It may be called when the
database is read-only; in this case the change will be queued for
an unspecified time in the future. The implication of this is that
rhythmdb_entry_get()
may not reflect the changes immediately. However,
if this property is exposed in the user interface, you should still
make the change in the widget. Then when the database returns to a
writable state, your change will take effect in the database too,
and a notification will be sent at that point.
Note that you must call rhythmdb_commit()
at some point after invoking
this function, and that even after the commit, your change may not
have taken effect.

the query to run |
RhythmDBQuery * rhythmdb_query_parse (RhythmDB *db
,...
);
Creates a query from a list of criteria.
Most criteria consists of an operator (RhythmDBQueryType), a property (RhythmDBPropType) and the data to compare with. An entry matches a criteria if the operator returns true with the value of the entries property as the first argument, and the given data as the second argument.
Three types criteria are special. Passing RHYTHMDB_QUERY_END indicates the end of the list of criteria, and must be the last passes parameter.
The second special criteria is a subquery which is defined by passing RHYTHMDB_QUERY_SUBQUERY, followed by a query (GPtrArray). An entry will match a subquery criteria if it matches all criteria in the subquery.
The third special criteria is a disjunction which is defined by passing RHYTHMDB_QUERY_DISJUNCTION, which will make an entry match the query if it matches the criteria before the disjunction, the criteria after the disjunction, or both.
Example: rhythmdb_query_parse (db, RHYTHMDB_QUERY_SUBQUERY, subquery, RHYTHMDB_QUERY_DISJUNCTION RHYTHMDB_QUERY_PROP_LIKE, RHYTHMDB_PROP_TITLE, "cat", RHYTHMDB_QUERY_DISJUNCTION RHYTHMDB_QUERY_PROP_GREATER, RHYTHMDB_PROP_RATING, 2.5, RHYTHMDB_QUERY_PROP_LESS, RHYTHMDB_PROP_PLAY_COUNT, 10, RHYTHMDB_QUERY_END);
will create a query that matches entries: a) that match the query "subquery", or b) that have "cat" in their title, or c) have a rating of at least 2.5, and a play count of at most 10

void rhythmdb_query_preprocess (RhythmDB *db
,RhythmDBQuery *query
);
Preprocesses a query to prepare it for execution. This has two main roles: to perform expensive data transformations once per query, rather than once per entry, and converting criteria to lower-level forms that are implemented by the database backend.
For RHYTHMDB_PROP_SEARCH_MATCH, this converts the search terms into an array of case-folded words.
When matching against case-folded properties such as RHYTHMDB_PROP_TITLE_FOLDED, this case-folds the query value.
When performing year-based criteria such as RHYTHMDB_QUERY_PROP_YEAR_LESS, it converts the year into the Julian date such that a simple numeric comparison will work.

GValue * rhythmdb_entry_request_extra_metadata (RhythmDB *db
,RhythmDBEntry *entry
,const gchar *property_name
);
Emits a request for extra metadata for the entry
.
The property_name
argument is emitted as the ::detail part of the
"entry_extra_metadata_request" signal. It should be a namespaced RDF
predicate e.g. from Dublin Core, MusicBrainz, or internal to Rhythmbox
(namespace "rb:"). Suitable predicates would be those that are expensive to
acquire or only apply to a limited range of entries.
Handlers capable of providing a particular predicate may ensure they only
see appropriate requests by supplying an appropriate ::detail part when
connecting to the signal. Upon a handler returning a non-NULL
value,
emission will be stopped and the value returned to the caller; if no
handlers return a non-NULL
value, the caller will receive NULL
. Priority
is determined by signal connection order, with G_CONNECT_AFTER
providing a
second, lower rank of priority.
A handler returning a value should do so in a GValue allocated on the heap;
the accumulator will take ownership. The caller should unset and free the
GValue if non-NULL
when finished with it.

RBStringValueMap * rhythmdb_entry_gather_metadata (RhythmDB *db
,RhythmDBEntry *entry
);
Gathers all metadata for the entry
. The returned GHashTable maps property
names and extra metadata names (described under
rhythmdb_entry_request_extra_metadata
) to GValues. Anything wanting to
provide extra metadata should connect to the "entry_extra_metadata_gather"
signal.

a RhythmDBEntry |
Returns : |

void rhythmdb_emit_entry_extra_metadata_notify (RhythmDB *db
,RhythmDBEntry *entry
,const gchar *property_name
,const GValue *metadata
);
Emits a signal describing extra metadata for the entry
. The property_name
argument is emitted as the ::detail part of the
"entry_extra_metadata_notify" signal and as the 'field' parameter. Handlers
can ensure they only get metadata they are interested in by supplying an
appropriate ::detail part when connecting to the signal. If handlers are
interested in the metadata they should ref or copy the contents of metadata
and unref or free it when they are finished with it.
