Finding release catno

[masquinongy]

Hey, how do I get the catalog number for a release? Thanks.

@masquinongy the catalogue number is listed under the company info, same record set as the Record Label information ... company.data['catno'] is where I get it from

Thanks for answering @VinylVault, you are correct. You can access the catno for a company or a label by doing:

company.data["catno"]
label.data["catno"]

This can be seen in the release response here. Unfortantely it seems you can't get the catno for a release itself mind.

I just had the same problem. But I think the reason for a release not having a catno is that some releases have multiple label/catno combinations, so you have to specify which one you want e.g. via your choice of n in myrelease.labels[n].fetch("catno")
