iTunes CSV

Export iTunes Library XML data to CSV

Why?

iTunes allows you to copy and paste from iTunes into a spreadsheet, but this only includes visible columns. For non-visible columns you need to extract from the XML.

Installation

$ gem install itunes_csv

Usage

$ itunes_csv --help
Usage: itunes_csv [options]
    -f, --fields name,track,year     List of fields (default: name,artist)
    -p, --path PATH                  Path to iTunes XML file (default: ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music Library.xml)

Notes

May take a long time to run for a large iTunes library (10,000+ tracks)
