GraphBrainz Extension: Discogs
Retrieve information about MusicBrainz entities from Discogs using the Discogs API. This project has no affiliation with Discogs.
The extension works by finding Discogs URLs in an entity’s URL relationships.
The URL relationship must have the discogs type and point to a Discogs entity
of the appropriate type: artist for artists, label for labels, master for
release groups, and release for releases.
