mod_musicindex is an Apache module initially aimed at being a C implementation of the Perl module Apache::MP3 (http://search.cpan.org/dist/Apache-MP3/).

It allows nice displaying of directories containing MP3, FLAC, Ogg Vorbis or MP4/AAC files, including sorting them on various fields, streaming and/or downloading them, constructing playlists and searching them.

It features a cache system, currently based on mirroring the tree structure handled by the module, storing files data using a flat text files backend. Work is currently in progress to provide a choice of back-ends, such as MySQL, PostgreSQL or SQLite.

It can also delegate streaming of files to an icecast server, as long as they can be accessed using the same URI ("staticdir" option).

If you add a picture of a CD cover in a directory, it will be displayed in the upper left corner of the web page and as a thumbnail in the parent directory. The file name must match the following scheme: "(.){cover,folder}.{jpg,png,gif}" eg: "cover.png" or ".folder.jpg" are valid names.

The musicindex directory contains a sample musicindex.css file. For more information, see the end of this file.

mod_musicindex Apache module will certainly see more development, so any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
