this plugin provides a faster way to query new metadata from
musicbrainz. (instead of having to 're-import' the files)
Currently it lacks all forms of documentation and will only work for
album queries. not really tested so far so be careful
The lastgenre command should always log what it's doing so the user can see
the progress being made. If you really don't want any output, just pipe to
/dev/null.
- Remove "part", "volume", "vol." multi-disc markers. These are often
part of album titles, and not necessarily indicative of a multi-disc
album. Only look for "CD X" and "disc X" (case insensitive), ignoring
white space and other non-word characters.
- Don't only expect each disc to be in a subdirectory of a common parent
directory, with all siblings belonging to the same release. Also match
any consecutive siblings (even when the parent contains other albums)
that are named with the same prefix and multi-disc marker.
- The `albums_in_dir(path)` function now always yields a list of paths
along with each list of items. `ItemTask.path` is now always a list of
paths.
- The `displayable_path(path)` function now accepts a list of paths, and
will join them with "; " by default. This can be changed with the
`separator` argument.
- The `sorted_walk()` function now does a case insensitive sort on
directories, but still returns case sensitive results. This allows
better multi-disc album detection.
- The `art_for_album()` function now takes a list of paths as its second
argument, instead of a single path.
This provides a default for source, preventing a crash when not present in the
user's config.
It also refactors the source decision to a helper function, _lastfm_obj, to
avoid copypasta.
I'm transitioning to using exclusively instance-level fields instead of
class-level fields in plugin objects, but I neglected to bring inline and
rewrite into the future. This manifested as silent inaction on the part of
these plugins.
This change restores the old behavior (for compatibility) but also updates the
plugins to use the new behavior.
If config is set to:
lastgenre:
source: artist
The genre will be fetched for the artist, rather than the album. This
allows for filesystem org like:
genre/artist/album
Currently defaults to previous behaviour for anything other than
`artist`
