itunesdb-rs is a Rust crate for parsing and editing the iTunesDB file on iPods. This crate was originally developed for Lyrica, a personal project, and was not intended for public use. However, since it may be useful to others working with legacy iPod synchronization, it is now available with no guarantees or official support.

Features

Read and parse iTunesDB files
Modify track metadata
Add or remove songs
Edit playlists
Read and modify ArtworkDB to manage album artwork
Save changes back to the iPod

Installation

Add the following to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]  
itunesdb = { git = "https://gitea.awain.net/alterwain/ITunesDB" }

Usage

let mut f = File::open("/Volumes/iPod/iPod_Control/iTunes/iTunesDB").unwrap();
let mut buf = Vec::new();
match f.read_to_end(&mut buf) {
    Ok(n) => {
        let data = &buf[..n];
        let mut xdb = itunesdb::deserializer::parse_bytes(data);
    }
    Err(e) => {}
}
