A MP3 ID3 tags reader in native PHP

PHP-ID3

PHP-ID3 makes use of native PHP to read ID3 Tags and thumbnail from a MP3 file. There have been many revisions to ID3 Tags specification; this program makes use of v3.2 of the spec., _(*1)

To read binary data more effectively, I have created a sclass, BinaryFileReader, which reads data in named chunks., _(*2)

How to Install

Into your composer.json, _(*3)

{
    "require" : {
        "shubhamjain/php-id3": "dev-master"
    }
}

How to Use

You will first need to include the autoload.php generated by composer and then you can use the classes in PhpId3 namespace., _(*4)

<?php

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

//...
use PhpId3\Id3TagsReader;

//...
$id3 = new Id3TagsReader(fopen("Exodus - 06 - Piranha.mp3", "rb"));

$id3->readAllTags(); //Calling this is necesarry before others

foreach($id3->getId3Array() as $key => $value) {
    if( $key !== "APIC" ) { //Skip Image data
        echo $value["FullTagName"] . ": " . $value["Body"] . "<br />"; 
    }
}

list($mimeType, $image) = $id3->getImage();

file_put_contents("thumb.jpeg", $image ); //Note the image type depends upon MimeType
