zooper_flutter_id3

The best library written in dart for reading and writing id3 tags. As far as I am aware also the only one supporting ID3 tags for version 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4.

NOTE This package is actually in alpha stage. Though it should work as intended, we recommend keeping your original files and check if the written file is in a good format.

NOTE Not all frames are supported yet, but they will be written exactly as they have been read, so no data loss. If you wish to support a specific frame, do a pull request or file an issue [here]

Zooper

The zooper family is a list of useful open source packages written in dart/flutter and C# containing helper classes and wrappers for other libraries. You can check the other packages [here]

Getting started

Add this line to your pubspec.yaml:

zooper_flutter_id3: <latest>

and inside your dart class:

import 'package:zooper_flutter_id3/zooper_flutter_id3.dart';

Usage

Decoding

The ZooperAudioFile stores the Id3v2 and Id3v1 Tag after reading, but also the audio data itself. You can read a file (You need check the compatibility of a file by yourself) as follows:

final file = File(filePath);
final bytes = await file.readAsBytes();

final audioFile = ZooperAudioFile.decode(bytes);

Reading Frames

After that you can access the frames easily via

final frame = audioFile.id3v2?.getFrameByNameOrNull(FrameName.track);

But this is not the recommended way to retrieve data. This package is developed with models in mind. This means that every frame has a model which you can get and edit as you want. For example:

var frameContent = audioFile.id3v2?.getContentGroupDescriptionModel();
frameContent?.value = 'Hello World';

Adding frames

To add a new Frame, there is also a helper method:

// Adds a new frame
audioFile.id3v2?.addFrame(frame);

This presumes you have created a frame by yourself. Beware to connect the FrameHeader with the FrameContent correctly, else it will result in an corrupted file. The better way to do this is using a helper method:

// Adds a new artist frame if possible
audioFile.id3v2?.addArtist('This is an artist test');

Deleting frames

// Deletes a specific frame
audioFile.id3v2?.deleteFrame(frame);

// Deletes all frames with the given identifier
audioFile.id3v2?.deleteFramesByName(FrameName.title);
