This application will read an iTunes export file in XML and produce a properly normalized database with this structure:
CREATE TABLE Artist (
id INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT UNIQUE,
name TEXT UNIQUE
);
CREATE TABLE Genre (
id INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT UNIQUE,
name TEXT UNIQUE
);
CREATE TABLE Album (
id INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT UNIQUE,
artist_id INTEGER,
title TEXT UNIQUE
);
CREATE TABLE Track (
id INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY
AUTOINCREMENT UNIQUE,
title TEXT UNIQUE,
album_id INTEGER,
genre_id INTEGER,
len INTEGER, rating INTEGER, count INTEGER
);
If you run the program multiple times in testing or with different files, make sure to empty out the data before each run.
