An open carnatic music database in the making.
Given how much carnatic music revolves around a (more or less) standard list of ragas, compositions, and composers, it is quite surprising that there isn't an authoritative source for this information on this internet today. The information however, is out there in the wild. Needles in the haystack of the internet.
This project exists to mine, categorize and curate that information into a strict database, thereby giving it the power of usability.
There are scrapers (that mine for data from select websites), there is the relationship-maker (that connects data from different sources), and there is the database (adheres to schema, stores information, reports). Most of this codebase is in clojure, but there's no reason the scrapers can't be in another language.
C-c M-j for now.
We'll get to this part later.
