Missing Plugin
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
This plugin adds a new command, ``missing`` or ``miss``, which finds and lists
|
|
missing tracks for albums in your collection. Each album requires one network
|
|
call to album data source.
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
Add the ``missing`` plugin to your configuration (see :ref:`using-plugins`). The
|
|
``beet missing`` command fetches album information from the origin data source
|
|
and lists names of the **tracks** that are missing from your library.
|
|
|
|
It can also list the names of missing **albums** for each artist, although this
|
|
is limited to albums from the MusicBrainz data source only.
|
|
|
|
You can customize the output format, show missing counts instead of track
|
|
titles, or display the total number of missing entities across your entire
|
|
library:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
-f FORMAT, --format=FORMAT
|
|
print with custom FORMAT
|
|
-c, --count count missing tracks per album
|
|
-t, --total count totals across the entire library
|
|
-a, --album show missing albums for artist instead of tracks for album
|
|
|
|
…or by editing the corresponding configuration options.
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
Option ``-c`` is ignored when used with ``-a``.
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
To configure the plugin, make a ``missing:`` section in your configuration file.
|
|
The available options are:
|
|
|
|
- **count**: Print a count of missing tracks per album, with the global
|
|
``format_album`` used for formatting. Default: ``no``.
|
|
- **total**: Print a single count of missing tracks in all albums. Default:
|
|
``no``.
|
|
|
|
Formatting
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
- This plugin uses global formatting options from the main configuration; see
|
|
:ref:`format_item` and :ref:`format_album`:
|
|
- :ref:`format_item`: Used when listing missing tracks (default item format).
|
|
- :ref:`format_album`: Used when showing counts (``-c``) or missing albums
|
|
(``-a``).
|
|
|
|
Here's an example
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
format_album: $albumartist - $album
|
|
format_item: $artist - $album - $title
|
|
missing:
|
|
count: no
|
|
total: no
|
|
|
|
Template Fields
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
With this plugin enabled, the ``$missing`` template field expands to the number
|
|
of tracks missing from each album.
|
|
|
|
Examples
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|

Print out a unicode histogram of the missing track years using spark_:
|
|
|
|

|
|
▆▁▆█▄▇▇▄▇▇▁█▇▆▇▂▄█▁██▂█▁▁██▁█▂▇▆▂▇█▇▇█▆▆▇█▇█▇▆██▂▇
