=============
The ``lyrics`` plugin fetches and stores song lyrics from databases on the Web.
Namely, the current version of the plugin uses `Genius.com`_, `Tekstowo.pl`_, `LRCLIB`_
and, optionally, the Google custom search API.

auto: yes
bing_client_secret: null
bing_lang_from: []

dist_thresh: 0.11
fallback: null
force: no
google_API_key: null

sources: [lrclib, google, genius, tekstowo]
synced: no
The available options are:
- **auto**: Fetch lyrics automatically during import.
Default: ``yes``.
- **bing_client_secret**: Your Bing Translation application password
(to :ref:`lyrics-translation`)
(see :ref:`lyrics-translation`)
- **bing_lang_from**: By default all lyrics with a language other than
``bing_lang_to`` are translated. Use a list of lang codes to restrict the set
of source languages to translate.
Default: ``[]``
- **bing_lang_to**: Language to translate lyrics into.
Default: None.
- **dist_thresh**: The maximum distance between the artist and title
combination of the music file and lyrics candidate to consider them a match.
Lower values will make the plugin more strict, higher values will make it
more lenient. This does not apply to the ``lrclib`` backend as it matches
durations.
Default: ``0.11``.
- **fallback**: By default, the file will be left unchanged when no lyrics are
found. Use the empty string ``''`` to reset the lyrics in such a case.
Default: None.
- **force**: By default, beets won't fetch lyrics if the files already have
ones. To instead always fetch lyrics, set the ``force`` option to ``yes``.
Default: ``no``.
- **google_API_key**: Your Google API key (to enable the Google Custom Search
backend).
Default: None.
- **google_engine_ID**: The custom search engine to use.
Default: The `beets custom search engine`_, which gathers an updated list of
sources known to be scrapeable.
- **sources**: List of sources to search for lyrics. An asterisk ``*`` expands
to all available sources.
Default: ``lrclib google genius tekstowo``, i.e., all the available sources. The
``google`` source will be automatically deactivated if no ``google_API_key``
is setup.
The ``google``, ``genius``, and ``tekstowo`` sources will only be enabled if
BeautifulSoup is installed.
- **synced**: Prefer synced lyrics over plain lyrics if a source offers them. Currently `lrclib` is the only source that provides them. Default: `no`.
Here's an example of ``config.yaml``::
lyrics:
fallback: ''

Activate Google Custom Search
------------------------------
You need to `register for a Google API key`_. Set the ``google_API_key``
configuration option to your key.
Then add ``google`` to the list of sources in your configuration (or use
default list, which includes it as long as you have an API key).
If you use default ``google_engine_ID``, we recommend limiting the sources to
``google`` as the other sources are already included in the Google results.
.. _register for a Google API key: https://console.developers.google.com/
Optionally, you can `define a custom search engine`_. Get your search engine's
token and use it for your ``google_engine_ID`` configuration option. By
default, beets use a list of sources known to be scrapeable.
.. _define a custom search engine: https://www.google.com/cse/all
Note that the Google custom search API is limited to 100 queries per day.
After that, the lyrics plugin will fall back on other declared data sources.
