ImportFeeds Plugin
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
The ``importfeeds`` plugin helps you keep track of newly imported music in your library.
|
|
|
|
To use the plugin, just put ``importfeeds`` on the ``plugins`` line in your
|
|
:doc:`configuration file </reference/config>`. Then set a few options under the
|
|
``importfeeds:`` section in the config file.
|
|
|
|
The ``feeds_dir`` configuration option can be set to specify another folder
|
|
than the default library directory. Three different types of outputs coexist,
|
|
specify the ones you want to use by setting the ``feeds_formats`` parameter:
|
|
|
|
- ``m3u``: catalog the imports in a centralized playlist. By default, the playlist is named ``imported.m3u``. To use a different file, just set the ``m3u_name`` parameter inside the ``importfeeds`` config section.
|
|
- ``m3u_multi``: create a new playlist for each import (uniquely named by appending the date and track/album name).
|
|
- ``link``: create a symlink for each imported item. This is the recommended setting to propagate beets imports to your iTunes library: just drag and drop the ``feeds_dir`` folder on the iTunes dock icon.
|
|
|
|
Here's an example configuration for this plugin::
|
|
|
|
importfeeds:
|
|
feeds_formats: m3u link
|
|
feeds_dir: ~/imports/
|
|
m3u_name: newfiles.m3u
