MPDUpdate Plugin
================
``mpdupdate`` is a very simple plugin for beets that lets you automatically
update `MPD`_'s index whenever you change your beets library.
.. _MPD: http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/Music_Player_Daemon_Wiki
To use it, enable it in your ``config.yaml`` by putting ``mpdupdate`` on your
``plugins`` line. Then, you'll probably want to configure the specifics of your
MPD server. You can do that using an ``mpdupdate:`` section in your
``config.yaml``, which looks like this::
mpdupdate:
host: localhost
port: 6600
password: seekrit
With that all in place, you'll see beets send the "update" command to your MPD server every time you change your beets library.
