# SYNOPSIS

# BUILD STATUS
[](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/0x00A/node-taglib2)
# INSTALLATION
### OSX/Linux
You need to have installed a proper C/C++ compiler toolchain, like GCC (For OSX please download [Xcode and Command Line Tools](https://developer.apple.com/xcode/))
### Windows
You need to have Visual C++ Build Environment setup, which you can download as a standalone [Visual C++ Build Tools](http://landinghub.visualstudio.com/visual-cpp-build-tools) package or get it as part of [Visual Studio 2015](https://www.visualstudio.com/products/visual-studio-community-vs).
# USAGE
For example, with electron...
```
ELECTRON=1 npm install
```
### WRITING TAGS
Note that `track` will overwrite `tracknumber` if specified in the same write.
```js
const taglib = require('taglib2')
const mime = require('node-mime')
const fs = require('fs')
const props = {
artist: 'Howlin\' Wolf',
title: 'Evil is goin\' on',
album: 'Smokestack Lightnin\'',
comment: 'Chess Master Series',
genre: 'blues',
year: 1951,
track: 3,
tracknumber: '1/1',
discnumber: '1/1',
pictures: [
{
"mimetype": mime('./cover.jpg'),
"picture": fs.readFileSync('./cover.jpg')
}
],
}
taglib.writeTagsSync('./file.mp3', props)
```
### READING TAGS
```js
const taglib = require('taglib2')
const tags = taglib.readTagsSync('./file.mp3')
```
#### OUTPUT
`tags.pictures` will be an array of buffers that contain image data.
