OpenAPI Specification

lrcmux-compatibility-api-openapi.yml Raw ↑
openapi: 3.2.0
info:
  description: '**lrcmux** is a lyrics aggregation API. It queries multiple providers, caches results, and returns the best available lyrics for a given track.


    ## Providers


    | Provider | ID | Notes |

    | -------- | -- | ----- |

    | **Genius** | `genius` | Best song coverage, but only plain text lyrics |

    | **KuGou** | `kugou` | Word-level sync for most songs (AI?), censors profanity |

    | **LRCLIB** | `lrclib` | Community-sourced lyrics database |

    | **YouTube Music** | `ytmusic` | Uses various sources, mix of line-synced and plain text |


    ## Sync levels


    | Level | Description |

    | ----- | ----------- |

    | `word` | Per-word timestamps, suitable for karaoke-style highlighting |

    | `line` | Per-line timestamps, suitable for scrolling displays |

    | `none` | Unsynced plain text |


    ## Formats


    The same result can be returned in any of these formats via the `format` query parameter. If the underlying lyrics do not meet a format''s minimum sync level, the request fails with a `400`.


    | Format | Content-Type | Min level | Notes |

    | ------ | ------------ | --------- | -------- |

    | `json` | `application/json; charset=utf-8` | none | Default, structured lines and metadata |

    | `lrc` | `text/plain; charset=utf-8` | none | Standard .lrc files for music players |

    | `lyricsfile` | `text/yaml; charset=utf-8` | none | Used by LRCLIB/LRCGET |

    | `srt` | `text/plain; charset=utf-8` | line | Subtitles for video editors and media players |

    | `txt` | `text/plain; charset=utf-8` | none | Plain unsynced text |

    | `vtt` | `text/vtt; charset=utf-8` | line | WebVTT for browser-based players |


    ## User agent


    While it''s not mandatory, we encourage you to include a `User-Agent` header identifying your app and a link to its repo (or a way to contact you if something goes wrong).


    ```

    User-Agent: MyApp v1.0.0 (https://github.com/example/myapp)

    ```


    ## Rate limiting


    Up to **60** requests per **1m** window. Cache hits are free and do not count against the limit.
