Renamed fuzzy_search to fuzzy and rdm to random. These names should be easier to remember since they are the same as the commands they provide. --HG-- rename : beetsplug/fuzzy_search.py => beetsplug/fuzzy.py rename : beetsplug/rdm.py => beetsplug/random.py rename : docs/plugins/fuzzy_search.rst => docs/plugins/fuzzy.rst rename : docs/plugins/rdm.rst => docs/plugins/random.rst

Random Plugin
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
The ``random`` plugin provides a command that randomly selects tracks or albums
|
|
from your library. This can be helpful if you need some help deciding what to
|
|
listen to.
|
|
|
|
First, enable the plugin named ``random`` (see :doc:`/plugins/index`). You'll then
|
|
be able to use the ``beet random`` command::
|
|
|
|
$ beet random
|
|
Aesop Rock - None Shall Pass - The Harbor Is Yours
|
|
|
|
The command has several options that resemble those for the ``beet list``
|
|
command (see :doc:`/reference/cli`). To choose an album instead of a single
|
|
track, use ``-a``; to print paths to items instead of metadata, use ``-p``; and
|
|
to use a custom format for printing, use ``-f FORMAT``.
|
|
|
|
The ``-n NUMBER`` option controls the number of objects that are selected and
|
|
printed (default 1). To select 5 tracks from your library, type ``beet random
|
|
-n5``.
