FREEDB SUBMISSION
-----------------
Your software may allow users to enter freedb data and then submit it to the
freedb archives.
There are two methods of submission: via e-mail or via http using submit.cgi
It is up to you, if you support one or both of these methods.
1. Submission via e-mail
------------------------
The method of submission is to send the entry to following address via e-mail:
freedb-submit@freedb.org
You may implement a button or somesuch in your software's user-interface to
facilitate this. The destination e-mail address should be made
user-configurable. Submissions are silently accepted, and no confirmation
of receipt is sent to the submitter. Rejected submissions are automatically
returned to the sender via e-mail with an explanation of the reason for the
rejection.
There should be one e-mail message per freedb entry. The e-mail subject line
should be in the form "cddb category discid". For example:
Subject: cddb rock 850f970b
You may optionally set an additional "X-Cddbd-Note:" header line, specifying
an arbitrary message to be included at the top of any rejection notice that
may be sent to the submitting user. You could e.g. add a note about your
support-address give the user a chance to contact you, if there are problems
to successfully submit using your program. The length of the arbitrary message
is limited to 70 chars.
The body of the e-mail message should be in the format of a freedb file entry
as described in the database format specification. The messages should contain
only plain ASCII text. Do not attach encoded information or add special escape
sequences.
The master freedb accepts only submissions in the US-ASCII, ISO-8859-1 and
UTF-8 character sets. If your program supports UTF-8 and protocol level 6,
you should always use UTF-8 for submissions and specify UTF-8 as the charset
of the e-mail, even if the submission contains no 8bit-characters and would
therefore also be valid as US-ASCII. Only submissions specifying UTF-8 as the
charset in the e-mail headers are allowed to update existing entries that
contain characters, which can not be represented in US-ASCII or ISO-8859-1.
Note that the disc ID specified in the e-mail subject line should also appear
in the list of disc IDs in the DISCID= field of the freedb file entry. If not,
it is considered an error and the submission will be rejected.
You should only allow categories that are currently supported by the freedb.
Valid categories are: blues, classical, country, data, folk, jazz, misc,
newage, reggae, rock and soundtrack
Submissions specifying unsupported categories will be rejected.
Please do not allow a user to submit CD database entries that have completely
unfilled contents (i.e., blank information in the disc artist/title as well as
the track titles, or filled with useless default information like "track 1",
"track 2", etc.). While the current CD database server checks and rejects
submissions that have a blank DTITLE line, it doesn't (and can't feasibly)
check the track titles effectively, nor can it check any of these fields
if they are filled with a default string. If it were, it would have to be
hacked to know about the default strings of every possible client.
Thus, please design your client with this in mind. This is a somewhat
tricky thing to do, as some CDs contain blank tracks with no titles
and you need to allow for that. An example minimum requirement
that a CD player client should meet is listed below:
1. Don't allow the "send" or "submit" feature to be activated if the CD
database information form is not edited at all.
2. Check that the disc artist/title contains something (that the user
typed in).
3. Check that the majority of the tracks have a title filled in by the user.
This should minimize the amount of useless garbage being submitted
into the CD database.
Before you release your software, please be sure that it produces submissions
that adhere to the freedb file format, and that the frame offset, disc
length, and disc ID information are correctly computed. For testing, please
make your software send submissions to the following e-mail address (rather
than the real submission site at freedb-submit@freedb.org):
test-submit@freedb.org
freedb submissions sent to the test e-mail address will be sanity-checked
by the freedb server and pass/fail confirmation will be sent back to the
submitter, but the submission will not actually be deposited in the CD
database. Please do _not_ send submissions in "submit" mode until you have
tested your program with several different CD's.
When you feel your application is ready to support submissions, we would
appreciate, if you would contact us and provide a copy of your program
before releasing it, so we can check if everything is really OK.
2. Submission via http
----------------------
The method of submitting via http is, to transmit the entry to the database
through a CGI program, which is present at the same location as the cddb.cgi.
The standard address for this is:
http://freedb_server/~cddb/submit.cgi
where freedb_server is the address of the selected freedb-server.
You may implement a button or somesuch in your software's user interface to
initiate submissions. Rejected submissions are automatically returned via
e-mail to the sender specified in the "User-Email" header field (see below)
with an explanation of the reason for the rejection.
To submit via the cgi-program, you must use the "POST" method of sending data;
"GET" is not supported. Several HTTP "Entity-Header" fields (described below)
must be included in the data followed by a blank line, followed by the
"Entity-Body" (the freedb entry) in the format described in the database-format
specification.
The header fields are:
Category: valid_freedb_category
Discid: cd_discid
User-Email: username@domain
Submit-Mode: test_or_submit
Content-Length: freedb_entry_length
Charset: character_set_of_freedb_entry (optional)
X-Cddbd-Note: message_for_user (optional)
Where
- "valid_freedb_category" is a valid freedb category (valid categories are:
blues, classical, country, data, folk, jazz, misc, newage, reggae, rock,
soundtrack). Submissions with an invalid category specified will be rejected.
- "cd_discid" is the 8-digit hex CDDB/freedb disc ID of the entry (see
Appendix A). This has to be exactly the same disc ID that appears in the
"DISCID=" section of the entry being submitted. If not, the entry will be
rejected.
- "username@domain" is the valid e-mail address of the submitting user. This
is required, as the server must be able to notify the submitter, if the
submission was rejected. So you should _never_ fill this with a default
value. Your program should refuse to submit anything, if the user has not
specified an e-mail-address.
- "test_or_submit" is the word "test" or "submit" (without the surrounding
quotes), which specifies if the submission is a test submission or a real
submission to the database (test submissions are described below).
- "freedb_entry_length" is the size in bytes of the freedb entry being
submitted. This number covers only the "Entity-Body" (without the blank line
that separates it from the header).
- "character_set_of_freedb_entry" is US-ASCII, ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8 (can be lower
case). This specifies the character set the submitted entry has been encoded
in. If your application knows the user's character set, then you should
specify it here. If your program supports UTF-8 and protocol level 6,
you should always use UTF-8 for submissions and specify UTF-8 as the charset
of the e-mail, even if the submission contains no 8bit-characters and would
therefore also be valid as US-ASCII. Only submissions specifying UTF-8 as the
charset in the headers are allowed to update existing entries that contain
characters, which can not be represented in US-ASCII or ISO-8859-1.
The default charset value if no charset is specified is ISO-8859-1 for
backwards compatibility.
- "message_for_user" is an arbitrary message to be included at the top of
any rejection notice that may be sent to the submitting user. The length of
the arbitrary message is limited to 70 chars.
To see, how a correct submission should look like, take a look at the following
example:
POST /~cddb/submit.cgi HTTP/1.0
Category: newage
Discid: 4306eb06
User-Email: joe@myhost.home.com
Submit-Mode: submit
Charset: ISO-8859-1
X-Cddbd-Note: Sent by free CD player - Questions: support@freecdplayer.org.
Content-Length: 960
# xmcd
#
# Track frame offsets:
[ data omitted for brevity ]
PLAYORDER=
Note the blank line between the "Content-Length" header field and "# xmcd"
which marks the beginning of the freedb entry. This complies to the standard
http header behaviour where the http header information is separated by a
single newline from the body content. Check http://www.w3.org/Protocols/
for more information on the http in general.
The CGI does a quick check on the submitted data (a more thoroughly check of
the entry is made later by the server, which notifies the user by e-mail if the
submission has been rejected) and responds to a submission
with a 3-digit response code followed by a description.
Currently the following response-codes are used:
200 OK, submission has been sent.
500 Missing required header information.
500 Internal Server Error: [description].
501 Invalid header information [details].
where "details" can be one of the following:
freedb category
disc ID
email address
charset
The body of the freedb submission must be sent exactly as described in
Appendix B. Do _not_ encode the data in any way before transmitting it; data
must be sent as raw text. Windows programmers should not use the Windows URL
encode function prior to calling the submit CGI program. Doing so may lead to
corrupt data being sent, causing rejected submissions.
Please do not allow a user to submit CD database entries that have completely
unfilled contents (i.e., blank information in the disc artist/title as well as
the track titles, or filled with useless default information like "track 1",
"track 2", etc.). While the current CD database server checks and rejects
submissions that have a blank DTITLE line, it doesn't (and can't feasibly)
check the track titles effectively, nor can it check any of these fields
if they are filled with a default string. If it were, it would have to be
hacked to know about the default strings of every possible client.
Thus, please design your client with this in mind. This is a somewhat
tricky thing to do, as some CDs contain blank tracks with no titles
and you need to allow for that. An example minimum requirement
that a CD player client should meet is listed below:
1. Don't allow the "send" or "submit" feature to be activated if the CD
database information form is not edited at all.
2. Check that the disc artist/title contains something (that the user
typed in).
3. Check that the majority of the tracks have a title filled in by the user.
This should minimize the amount of useless garbage being submitted to the
CD database.
Before you release your software, please be sure that it produces submissions
that adhere to the freedb file format, and that the frame offset, disc
length, and disc ID information are correctly computed.
For testing, please make your software sends submissions with the
"Submit-Mode" HTTP header field set to "test".
freedb submissions sent in test mode will be sanity-checked by the freedb
server and pass/fail confirmation will be sent back to the submitter, but
the submission will not actually be deposited in the CD database. Please do
_not_ send submissions in "submit" mode until you have tested your program
with several different CD's.
When you feel your application is ready to support submissions, we would
appreciate, if you would contact us and provide a copy of your program
before releasing it, so we can check if everything is really OK.
