Hi,

Just wanted to notify about my first public release of python mixxx database 
manipulation package pymixxx:

https://github.com/hile/pymixxx

This version has only been tested on OS/X. It shamelessly pulls my other 
library 'musa' as well, using it for command line album tree/song parsing and 
m3u playlist managemen. My main purpose for this was to export / import m3u 
playlists (which I generate from itunes, deckadance, traktor whatever), push 
songs to queues (finder service or nautilus script should be trivial with the 
scripts now) and to lookup the database tags (mixxx-lookup --artist foo). I 
have no intention to support windows with this, not because I wouldn't like 
windows but windows doesn't normally come with python anyway and it's not used 
from CLI so much.

Correct install command for most people is:

sudo pip install pymixxx

Someone said something about integrating these to the mixxx repos or codebase: 
feel free to fork this tree, possibly merging needed parts (musa.config, 
musa.tree, musa.formats.* and  musa.playlists) from musa tree to drop external 
dependencies and integrating this to mixxx repos directly. I will continue 
development of this separately until a good reason appears not to.

If you would prefer me to change the packaged script names from mixxx-automix 
etc. prefixes to pymixxx-* I can do that - right now I just don't see any 
conflict and like to keep them this way.

Also, I'm working on a controller mapping for TrakProDJ iPad application, it 
mostly works just some fine tuning required (jog scratch too fast, scratching 
needs some javascript variable fixes). The app is designed for traktor, but 
just sends midi and works fine with mixxxx. I'll post a bug report with 
attached files when I'm happy with the scratching performance (it scratches 
when playing, seeks forward/backward with wheels if stopped). It's not good 
enough for actually performing but my goal is to help support any DJ related 
controllers in mixxx I can find :)
